Misty's Malt Shop

"Home of the World Famous Black Raspberry Ice Cream"

About Us

Welcome to Misty’s Malt Shop—a beloved Keosauqua tradition since 2003! Misty’s journey began right here in the shop, working through high school and falling in love with the atmosphere, the people, and the joy of serving great food. One day, she “got a wild hair” and decided to buy the business—and the rest is history!

Today, Misty is still in the shop most days, personally involved in every detail to ensure the quality and care our customers have come to expect. Locally owned and operated, we’re proud to serve up favorites like our tenderloins and juicy hamburgers, alongside hearty wraps, sandwiches, and a full breakfast menu available until 10 AM. And of course, we’re home to the World Famous Black Raspberry Ice Cream—a recipe Misty created herself that’s literally known across the globe! Pair it with one of our creamy shakes or malts for the ultimate treat.

At Misty’s Malt Shop, we’re more than a place to eat—we’re a part of the community. We love seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones, and we invite you to stop by and experience the flavors and hospitality that make us a local favorite.

Testimonials

On 9/5/2026 Ethan M. had this to say:
Best soft serve ice cream I've ever had in my life! I highly recommend the black raspberry. They've got quite a large food menu as well. I didn't have anything other than ice cream though so I can't speak to its quality. The place was popping though. Clearly the place to be in Keosauqua!

On 8/22/2026 Sheila had this to say:
Every. Single. Time. Excellent ice cream. A small cone is plenty. Black Raspberry is strongly suggested.
