A fantastic find! This is the cutest shop and they have a big selection. Lots of candy, popcorn, ice cream, sorbet (even some vegan pints), and three different kinds of on-tap root beer (Sprecher, Point, 1919) in a root beer float bar. They have a fantastic outdoor seating area (with yard games). While we enjoyed that dog friendly space, the owner came out to say hello. Super nice guy. We'll be back!

Wow! Very cool place for popcorn and soft serve gelato! They also make a potato puff for people who can’t have popcorn. This used to be a bank and has some bank I sortation in the decor and name. Very good customer service too and they offer many popcorn flavors as well as many toppings for the soft serve gelato.

I have never been to a place with a root beer float bar! Super cool experience to taste different kinds of root beer. Not to mention super fresh popcorn of all flavors. Definitely a little DC gem.

Great place, awesome staff. The popcorn is excellent. He is the nicest man you could meet up here, very good at handling a crowd, the building is unique, and so is the product.

Tasty treats. They had cheesecake and chocolate soft serve Gelato. You can add toppings like chocolate and salted caramel. They also had several flavored popcorns like beer cheese.

They are pretty pricey, but it's a fun atmosphere, and their cheesey potato puffs are delectable. They have good popcorns, too. They have soft serve, not ice cream, and it's just chocolate, vanilla, or twist. They do have lots of toppings.

Not what I was expecting. Only four Ice creams on menu, but one of the machines was broken. So that left only chocolate or vanilla (or twist). It’s root beer floats or sundaes that cost $7. Good if you want a high end root beer float, but if you want ice cream or custard, there are better ice cream shops in door county.

What a great stopping point. Flavored popcorn, taffy, and delicious ice cream. Time to venture out of Sister Bay and up to Ellison Bay's newest hot spot. Kurt and Amy are fantastic hosts.

Absolutely amazing place! From the moment I walked in the owner made me feel welcomed and at home. My girlfriend and I tried a few different popcorn options he had put out for us. We ended up getting a couple different ones, You won't go wrong with any of the options they have. He also gave us some good insight on a couple different places around town to visit. Will definitely be back to see them!

Located in what used to be a bank (thus the name The Vault), this place has gelato and kettle corn and other tasty treats. Out back there is a gnome-themed playground for the kids. There are some tables and chairs in front where you can sit and eat whatever treat you have chosen and visit with friends. It's a fun place to go!

Super cute and high quality popcorn and ice cream/gelato shop. Had the most amazing pumpkin and toasted marshmallow twist gelato with graham cracker syrup glazed on top. Highly recommend!

Ice cream is great and the owner is friendly. This is definitely going to be one of my family's door county traditions from now on.

Stop in! You won't be disappointed! A unique selection of popcorn and fun ice cream sundaes. Be sure to try the potato puffs--yes, the potato puff popcorn alternative. Flavored or plain...this changes the game (no popcorn hulls or unpopped kernels to bother your teeth). Try the lemon flavored puffs!!

Such a fun place to stop by! The owner is very friendly and gave us great advice on things to do in door county. The root beer on tap was the best I’ve ever had!
