Passing up a hard scoop of Galliker’s ice cream or house-made soft serve in downtown Latrobe is an awful decision. Latrobe Cone Zone is a charming spot for those craving basic hot foods and ice cream. With the variety, Julia’s choice is a classic twist soft-serve in a cup with rainbow sprinkles, and Brooke’s is a chocolate milkshake. Prices are fairly inexpensive, which is a plus for anyone looking to enjoy a treat without breaking the bank. The place is open until 8 PM, giving you plenty of time to stop by. While the variety is average, the young staff adds a friendly vibe to the experience. Keep in mind that there’s no indoor seating, so you’ll be enjoying your food and ice cream outdoors. Overall, it’s a nice, Latrobe-specific spot to grab a quick bite or a sweet treat.
