Crispy Cones is targeting August for its first Northern Virginia dessert shop. The Shark Tank-backed brand is preparing a location at Bram Quarter in Brambleton, where it will serve soft serve inside freshly grilled dough cones.
The company still lists Brambleton as coming soon. An exact opening day and store hours have not been publicly confirmed.
Crispy Cones Brambleton: Quick facts
What is a Crispy Cone?
The brand’s signature dessert starts with fresh dough wrapped around a cone-shaped form and cooked on a rotating grill. The warm pastry is coated with cinnamon sugar or another specialty powder, then filled with soft serve and toppings.
It is closer to a pastry-and-ice-cream combination than a standard waffle cone. The contrast between warm dough and cold soft serve is the main attraction.
Where is Crispy Cones opening in Northern Virginia?
The shop is planned at Bram Quarter, the growing retail center in Brambleton near Ashburn. The development has been adding restaurants, services and gathering spaces for eastern Loudoun County.
Crispy Cones and community updates identify the Brambleton location, but an exact public street address, suite number and daily hours were not available in the current announcements.
How Shark Tank helped Crispy Cones grow
Crispy Cones appeared on Shark Tank in 2023 and secured an investment. The national exposure accelerated franchising and made the brand’s spiral pastry cones familiar well outside its original markets.
The Northern Virginia store will be operated by franchisee Chill Treats. That local franchise group signed the lease and has discussed additional stores over the next several years.
When will Crispy Cones Brambleton open?
The current target is August 2026, but there is no confirmed grand-opening date. The official Crispy Cones locations page still labels Brambleton as coming soon.
Wait for the official opening post
A target month can move during final inspections, staffing and training. Check the brand’s official location page and social channels for a dated opening announcement and posted hours.
Are more Crispy Cones shops planned?
The franchisee has discussed three additional stores in later years. Public reporting does not establish that all three will be in Northern Virginia, so DC Spot is not assigning those future locations yet.
If the Brambleton opening stays on track, it will be the first chance for Northern Virginia customers to try the chain without traveling to another market.
