Any ice cream desire you have will likely be met here. They have sundaes, soft serve, over 25 flavors of hard ice cream, italian ice, ice cream sandwiches and even ice cream cakes. I ordered a small soft serve and let's just say I can't imagine what a large would've looked like. The prices seemed fair and I would love to try out their hard ice cream next time. The workers were friendly and prompt. There is plenty of seating outside on the patio and some seating inside as well. The only odd thing was the 40" TV displaying four security camera angles. Not sure what they were going for with that.

This is a cite place. Didn't know about it. You can be served inside or out. There is a decent size seating area to eat. They have a great selection of ice cream and toppings. I'm usually a sprinkle guy but decided to try the cotton candy and simple soft serve vanilla. It was really good. I do plan on going back for the hard serve ice cream, seeing as there are flavors there I have not seen and would like to try.

Good ice cream, but LONG line that takes forever. Don't come in a rush, but if you have time to wait it's worth it!

TLDR - huge variety of flavors! Large portions! Sit outdoors on a nice day, friendly staff I love summer nights because I can enjoy my evening outside with a large scoop of ice cream. This place is a cute neighborhood shop that has all of your classic ice cream and Italian ice flavors and a few surprise flavors as well. You can also choose to pick up ice cream cakes, milk shakes, sundaes, banana splits and top them with any topping you could imagine. I got the small scoop and they really load up on their scoops! I picked 2 flavors, dunken cookie because I love coffee and s'mores because I love a graham cracker crunch. Dunken cookie had a good medium bodied coffee flavor and S'mores had plenty of graham cracker crumbles and chocolate chips throughout. I'll be coming back to try out more flavors! Their ice cream sandwiches look so good too! Today I really wished I had multiple stomachs!

I have been here a few times for ice cream and it is usually really good. I enjoy the soft serve from here because it's a really nice creamy texture. When I've tried the hard scoop ice creams, most of them have been good. I had one that felt like it was a little freezer burned with some ice chunks in it, although it tasted fine. There are a ton of flavors to choose from which is nice. Pretty much something for everyone. If you are coming here on a weekend when it's hot, expect to wait for a bit to order and get your ice cream. There is a good amount of outdoor seating and parking on the premise. It is located on a busier road though so it's not always the best place to stay and hang out due to passing cars.

My boyfriend suggested this place when we went out for ice cream recently. The shop was really busy when we went which is expected on a nice day. They had a variety of flavors but I kept it simple and went with vanilla soft served with rainbow sprinkles. The ice cream was good. I'll try something different during my next visit. They had plenty of tables and seating outside.

This is a "mom and pop" place that's doing it right! I'm so happy I discovered it this summer, just a little upset that I didn't know about it the last 9 years I've been leaving in the area! First and most importantly, they are making all their ice cream on site, according to a convo with the owner. Secondly, the prices are awesome. I don't know how they compare to other ice cream parlors bc I never really frequented any in the past, but a half gallon is under $8. I have one in the freezer right now. I highly recommend cappuccino crunch. You're welcome, in advance.
