"The ice cream here is great - there’s a wide variety of both traditional and creative flavors. The bedazzled and creamsicle were my personal choices and both were delicious. The only negative thing my group experienced is a sense of tension between the employees and their boss."

"Just had a great experience here! The ice cream was delicious (as expected) but it’s the customer service that made this a 10/10 experience. The workers were so kind and patient. Definitely will go back (I personally recommend the kitchen sink ice cream!)"
