    Amy's ice cream is a good place for ice cream and a good place to bring young kids because of their playground. However, I have noticed (since we have been three days in a row) that they do not clean the outside patio or tables/chairs. I see ice cream puddles that have not been cleaned, the trash cans have not been cleaned and overall, the area is dirty. A good power wash or hosing daily is sorely needed.

    Oreo Ice cream was good and creamy. Fair prices for the portion size. Plenty of parking and outdoor seating

    I was on the catering team at Amy's for 2 years! Fun stuff, although I've now moved on to a 'big girl job' I think it's only fair to let everyone in on one of Austin's best kept secrets: Amy's Ice Creams Catering!! The flavors that they typically bring are Mexican Vanilla, Belgian Chocolate, Strawberry and Oreo! You can sub other flavors but I think there's an extra charge. They can do toppings as well and those are Heath Bar, Oreo, pecans and M&Ms, or even make it a sundae event and add hot fudge and freshly cut strawberries. Yum. I had a blast at that job, worked all kinds of events ranging from employee appreciation (a ton), fire drills, b-day parties, weddings, even went on set for Friday Night Lights!

    Nice, thick, dairy filed icecream. They've got several flavored options and plenty of toppings for your liking. I kept it simple with a tiny strawberry ice-cream. I believe as a Californian we're no longer used to the richness of milk in ice-cream, I come from the land of frozen yogurt. But I was okay with my $3 try.

    Yum!

    Guy serving the ice cream was very rude, terrible service. I definitely won't be coming back here again.

    Best ice cream in town. It's a "must visit" if you live in or are visiting Austin.

You can pick cookies or brownies for your sandwich, and the combinations are endless. The service is great and everything feels fresh and thoughtfully made. The inside is a bit small, but this location has a really nice lawn and patio area where you can sit and enjoy your treat. It's the perfect place to hang out, especially on a warm day. Pro tip: choose two different cookies so you can try more than one flavor, and always get your sandwich warmed up. It takes it to a whole new level. Such a unique and delicious stop in Austin.

I mean you can see for yourself that the ice cream sandwich looks 10 out of 10 fire. I did the custom ice cream sandwich with vanilla ice cream two different cookies- one was the gooey butter cake (overpowering after a few bites) did not finish & the other was like a oreo & cookie mix (much better) and did finish. Vanilla ice cream was decent, but nothing special. I might get it again if I was in the area and really had a sweet tooth, but I would definitely go for some different flavors because they just didn't hit the same this time.

A milestone. A monument. A celebration of a man whose legend looms over Austin like a slightly tipsy bat. Nate Gardog & Co bravely ordered what was advertised as an Oreo cake meant to serve 4-5 humans. What arrived, however, was not a cake. It was not even a mini-cake. It was... a cupcake wearing platform shoes. A baked good masquerading as something it clearly was not. The bag was on us, literally and spiritually. Shane--who, need I remind you, is an Austin icon, a man whose culinary preferences are practically carved into the walls of Barton Springs--was forced to confront this fraudulent pastry. And let me tell you: no man deserves this. Not at 38. Not ever. If the staff at Amy's were the true clairvoyants we believed them to be, they would have inherently known Shane's one, true, universal flavor: Funfetti. Classic. Chaotic. Confetti for the soul. Yet here we stood. Funfetti-less. Candle-less. Hope-less. As the final insult, there were no candles. Not even a sad, melted tea light from the back. Nothing to blow out except disappointment. In conclusion: the vibes were off, the cake was tiny, and Shane--our dear, beloved Shane--deserved better.

    Dehydrated and desperately needing something sweet we dropped by Jim Jim's to see what the high…read morereviews were all about. Located on 6th Street, Jim Jim's is surprisingly accessible with parking spots available out front and just around the corner. It's not a sitdown place so keep that in mind for your stop, but the line does move fast and they are very efficient. There's a good variety of flavors and things they serve from italian ice to ice cream and shakes. We opted for a strawberry italian ice with condensed milk on top. From the first bite we were in heaven. The flavor is very thorough which is not always the case for Italian ices where it can sometimes be a bit muted. Every single bite of this was packed with flavor. They also carve out a bit of the middle to put the condensed milk which makes every bite much more equal than if it was just placed at the top. This was by far one of, if not the best, Italian ices we've ever had. We would very much recommend it to anyone in the Downtown area looking to cool off.

By far, passion fruit was my favorite out of the 3, the other 2 were refreshing, but not personal favorites. If your particular about flavorings the definitely have some artificial taste to them so choose wisely. It's a cute hole in the wall shop for a grab and go water ice. So many flavors to choose from, hope they open back up soon so I can try some more!
