Great ice cream in this cute little shop. Interesting flavors and they revolve over time.

Love the butter toffee popcorn, cotton candy was a little flavorless to me. My bf favorite was the butter pecan in his flight. I also liked the peanut butter one he got. I liked the berry one i tried i just didn't want to get it mixed with something else. read more

The ice cream lived up to the hype. I've been hearing great things about their ice cream for years, and I finally made it in. When I walked in, the line was wrapped around the place, but it moved pretty quickly. Kudos to the team working, they were awesome! I had one scoop of peanut butter fudge - peanut butter ice cream with Reese's pieces and fudge swirls. It was delicious! Perfectly creamy and not too sweet. I wish the portion was larger. I felt like my scoop was too small for the price. I recommend getting a double scoop because one was not enough. read more

Firstly it is outrageous ice cream. Butter toffee popcorn is a star. Four stars that I'm happy to upgrade to five if the manager can riddle me why; 1 scoop is $6 2 scoops is $8.35 If you get a third scoop the cost is an additional $4.00! Huh? read more

So good. Lots of great customer service. Delicious treats. Price is average these days. Overall my kids loves it. read more

I've been to the original Andia's location before so it was nice to see that they moved somewhere with more convenient parking. Andia's is the only place I can confidently find Ube ice cream. It's so hard finding Ube anywhere, which is my husband's favorite ice cream flavor. I came in to stock up on pints. There was a family ahead of me so I had time to browse. There's lots of unique flavors to choose from which is why I ended up buying 6 pints. They are a bit pricey at about $12/pint but since I never come out to Cary, it was worth it. The shop is clean and well-lit. There's plenty of seating as well. The restroom in Andia's is clean and well stocked. The staff were helpful with questions I had about a discount for ordering 6 pints (there were no discounts which is a bummer). Overall, this is a solid place for ube ice cream which is worth the premium price for a sought-after flavor. read more

Highly-recommend the Coffee Bean Crunch, Ube, and Malted Twix flavors. Andia's Ice Cream is currently our #1 favorite ice cream shop in the Triangle NC. We've been to their 2 Cary locations, but the one in Ryan Rd. was the one we've been to the most. This award-winning spot is a must-visit for ice cream lovers. *Coffee Bean Crunch - Hands down, the best coffee-flavored ice cream my girl & I have ever tried. The creaminess and delicious coffee bean crunch make this flavor special *Ube - Also the best ube flavor we've ever tried. The ube flavor is rich & creamy. *Malted Twix - If you're craving for a more chocolatey flavor, go with this flavor; the Twix chocolate was welll-blended into the ice cream to create yummy creamery. Andia's also offers monthly flavors, some of which are uniquely interesting while others are just slight variations of their regular flavors. This month, we tried the Thai Iced Tea flavor, and it tastes what you'd expect from sipping Thai iced tea. Wish they'd consider adding this to their regular lineup of flavors as this is the kind we'd order regularly. We've also tried Andia's delicious milkshakes. They offer regular ones with ice cream of your choice or one of the special Instagram-worthy Andia's milkshakes that are loaded with toppings snd served in an Andia's mason jar. Whether you want your ice cream on a cone or in a cup, Andia's can serve the way you want your ice cream, and there's a lot of toppings to choose from. Customer service in Andia's is fast and friendly; the servers let you sample flavors with a tiny plastic spoon. The ambiance in this location feels more homely than their other Cary location; the indoor area here looks more like a small living room with comfy seats. This Andia's has a nice outdopr area with 3 bench-tables, making this an ideal spot for enjoying ice cream with a date or with family or friends. The only negative thing I could say about Andia's is how their pints are quite overpriced, so if you want to take out ice cream, you'll have to spend a bit more. We never bought their pints, but I wish they offer gallon buckets at a reasonable price like how they do it in Yarborough in Sanford, NC. Overall, Andia's Ice Cream is an excellent ice cream shop that offers high quality ice cream and delicious flavors, and we will surely keep returning here to satisfy our cravings for ice cream. | Overall Score: 4.7/5 read more

We always go to the Andia's on green level however I was in this part of town and happy to find this location tucked away in the corner. They offer the same flavors, service and fresh waffles. They have a few new flavors each month and then their signature flavors all the time. I always get the rose pistachio. If I am feeling adventurous, I get the flight to try 6 flavors . You can also buy the pints to take home. I recommend signing up for their rewards program to get points . read more

I had the peanut butter fudge and the Oreo latte. Neither one had any flavor. Did they forget to add sugar?

OMG this glass full of sweet chocolate was something that my girl picked to celebrate her state competition!! The whipped cream and chocolate syrup was ok ! The bottle that it came in was something that appealed more than the content in it .. the outside rim was coated with something like shortening so it could hold those bunch of chocolate sprinkles .. this was not something I expected from Andia's and the sprinkles could be real mini chocolate chips and shortening could be skipped .. all in all we enjoyed ordering it but we could not finish it .. will not order again .. too much calories and highly priced ..will stick to raspberry and ube flavour scoops AND ANDIA REMAINS MY FAV ICE CREAM PLACE! they just need to do better with the ingredients used in this shake read more

Went here for dessert. I was too full, but wanted to try this place. They are nationally known. There was so many flavors! I was in heaven and everything I sampled was good! I decided to get the Rose Pistachio and it was delicious!!! There was a long line but it went by fast. There were seating inside and outside. Also you are able to take a pint of the ice cream, some come prepared with a cooler and ice!! So if you're in the area, stop by and give it a try!!!!! read more

Andia's was so delicious! I was visiting for the week and this was one of the top places on my list. I am so glad I made time to come here because it did not disappoint. They have so many flavors to choose from, and I went with oreo latte and couch potato. Oreo latte was like a coffee icecream with oreo mixed in, and couch potato was a brown sugar ice cream with chocolate covered potato chips - so good! I definitely enjoyed the coffee better, as the brown sugar flavor was a little sweet for me. The location is pretty spacious and there are many photo-worthy spots like the neon sign and the mural outside. read more

I've reviewed Andia's before 2 years ago and it was top tier. I've visited many times since and it remains good ice cream, but what I experienced this visit definitely has me second guessing. First I wasn't greeted and as I waited in line others were. Let's chalk that up to busyness. It was about 5:00 on a grid afternoon. Not crowded. The first thing I noticed was a roach crawling up the wall. I pointed it out to the servers once I got up to the counter but just a blank stare. I asked about the sanitation rating and they said they didn't need one because the ice cream is made off site. Well that was disconcerting because I feel a place still needs to be evaluated if they SERVE food. You can have plenty of unsanitary practices. Then I had a token for a free scoop and wanted to make it a double so I agreed to pay the difference 2 dollars and some change ( because a double is $8 +. They said I had to pay $6 for another scoop. So technically I would've been paying $12 instead of $8. That makes no sense. I just said forget it and got the flight. Got in the car and took a bit and then noticed THE HAIR. Yup. Right in the ice cream. So I took it back and asked for a refund. The roach, the service, the hair....I was done. She asked me didn't I just want a different cup...No. She issued the refund. No apology. So I'm done with this location for sure. They were teens so maybe just better training is needed. Also hairnets may be necessary as well. read more

There is some hype surrounding this place from a YouTube video of the "best icecream in the U.S." and this is why you can't trust influencers. We were very excited to try the creme brulee ice cream and the other flavors but were disappointed. The French vanilla did not have much flavor. Here are the other flavors we got: Butter toffee popcorn, Oreo cookies and cream, rose pistachio, cannoli cream, lavender honeycomb, lucky you. Strange how some flavors were overemphasized and others were lacking. We would go back to try again maybe in the future. read more

My 3 year old said "it smells like ice cream!" as we walked past Andia's on our way to lunch in the same complex, and I knew we'd be stopping in before we headed home. They have a sign asking to limit tastings to 2 flavors, so we just went in blind on the 6 flavor sampler. We tried baklava, brownie batter, butter toffee popcorn, double chocolate Oreo, summer blues, and ube. Each new flavor was a delight! read more

If you love ice cream, this is the place for you! They have an array of monster shakes, or, if you'd like a regular scoop, they have classic flavors as well as several unique ones too. I couldn't decide which one to get, so I went with the ice cream flight. This allowed me to sample a variety of flavors in a single sitting. What's even better is that my one friend has a dairy allergy, and they took her allergy super seriously and led her to some options that were safe to eat. It's always nice when everyone can be included! read more

Andia's ice cream is everything. I've enjoyed the peanut butter Oreo, pumpkin chai, and Biscoff cheesecake ice cream. Everything is so delicious! The service is excellent. The space is clean and well-lit. There are lots of pictures and history stories about Andia that I read over while waiting in line. Depending on the day there could be a line out the door, but it's worth waiting for. I love it! There are also dairy-free options that I've yet to try. There are monthly flavors like the pumpkin chai and Biscoff cheesecake, so be sure to try anything that's a monthly option up front and try the old classics any other time. read more

Can definitely see why Andia's is considered one of the best ice cream spots in the country! Lots of unique options- we got the Rose Pistachio (which I loved bc it tastes just like an Indian dessert, Falooda) and Malted Twix with Torched Marshmallow Fluff (never seen this as a topping at other places!) in a Waffle Bowl. Also sampled Ube (was impressed by the strong Ube flavor) and Baklava. So sad that I didn't notice the Sampler Flight option before ordering, but I guess that means I have to come back haha. Super nice & fast service. Aesthetic ambiance with lots of photo ops. 10/10 would recommend! read more

It smells wonderful here! You immediately smell waffle cones as soon as you walk in. The menu is full of different flavor and topping options. Sprinkles are free, however the additional toppings are $1 each. I ordered the Carolina Comfort flavor. The scooper was very friendly when assisting me with my order. The ice cream was good but the chocolate cake within the ice cream was a bit dry. I received a offer for a free waffle cone when I checked in the location on Yelp. I was told the offer was from a few years ago and is no longer valid. I think the business should reach out to Yelp to remove this offer if multiple customers have presented a coupon that is no longer valid. Just a thought! read more

Excellent ice cream from a small business! It was my first time so I wanted to try several flavors to get an idea of their style. They had just the thing for that: a sampler flight! I tried four regular flavors and two seasonal flavors. The seasonal Chill Out was interesting, a mix between ice cream and BBQ sauce. Their Trick or Treat flavor was generous on the candy bits. My favorite is a tie between S'mores and good ol' vanilla. read more

I saw a video about Andia's and I've been wanting to try it since! We came on Father's Day and there was a deal for free ice cream so the line was very long. It gave us time to look at the flavors and figure out what we wanted. By the time we reached the front we still couldn't decide, so we went with the sampler which gives 6 mini scoops. It ended up being perfect and gave the two of us a chance to get a taste of 12 flavors. Out of the ones we had, we really liked Oreo latte, brownie batter, mint chip and strawberry. Despite the busy day the employees were really friendly and working very quickly. The inside was really clean and there was a decent amount of seating. read more

Apparently this was recently voted the #4 ice cream place by USA today. I have no idea who thinks that though. I've been to so many better ice cream shops, and Two Roosters in Raleigh is a lot better. The line can be long so expect to wait outside. They only allow two samples, which is fair. I tried the double dark chocolate and malted twix. I liked the caramel in the twix one, but the chocolate just wasn't dark enough. I ended up getting the butter'd beer float because I love Harry Potter. The scoopers are so precise it's annoying. They have scales to weigh the ice cream. There really wasn't that much ice cream in the float, but the marshmallow on top was good. I feel like it's pricier than other ice cream shops, and the ice cream isn't as good. A note about the line management - each worker only scoops for one party, which ends up backing up the line and causing people behind you to get their ice cream before you in some cases. There were 4 people in front of us that had one person getting their ice cream. My husband and I then had another person. The single person behind us had another person, and of course, was served before us or the party in front of us. It just makes no sense! It slows everything down. I might be willing to try this place again and get actual scoops, but it certainly won't be at the top of my list. read more

My third visit to the store.. this time we got the sampler which was 6 mini scoop and were they tiny (for $8.5 w/ taxes w/o tip) (I would want to take off one star for that but hey everything else was great) there was a line till outside the door, it moved very quickly. We loved all the flavors we tried. The mini scoops - Black Cherry - pretty good Ube - was sooooo darn goood Strawberry matcha latte - star of the show! Actually maybe Ube was too!! Rose pistachio - more pistachio than rose (I do not like rose so I could eat this one) Lychee - very summery and light would probably love it more if I had just that Pina colada- loved it! 3rd fav (after strawberry matcha and Ube) We were contemplating taking pints home, but had errands to run and it would be completely liquid in 5 mins with the heat outside) will be back soon for those. The store is cute, with couple snappable walls, with ample seating inside as well as outside. read more

We had the opportunity to stop by this place for some sweet treats. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing, so some of the flavors we wanted to try were already sold out for the day. This place is very popular and well known. They also make some unique ice cream creations and have some interesting flavors. We will try and revisit before we fly back home in a few days. This place is definitely worth a visit if you like ice cream. read more

I've seen so many articles about how great this place is. We had been in the area for the day so decided to come after dinner. My son loved the ube ice cream. There's a ton of flavors. They can get busy so they only allow two samples of ice cream at a time. Otherwise you can order a flight. I've seen the massive shakes and contemplated getting one but ultimately just decided to go with a single scoop. They are great about labeling their allergens... gf, tree nuts, etc. they do offer a gluten free cone as well. They seem to be very dog friendly as they also offer a pup cup on their menu. read more

Such smooth and creamy ice cream! On a food side quest, my bestie and I headed over to Andia's after lusting after them for months on IG. It did not disappoint! There were a few people in the shop at the time and we were taken care of quickly and patiently: I tried the ube and gingerbread but ultimately we both got holiday flavors. I got the gingerbread which was smooth, lightly spiced and creamy-almost custard creamy! My friend got Santa's cookies: we were both worried it would be too sweet but it was perfection. This is fantastic ice cream, a cute shop with a great vibe and worth the money and drive (for us, from Winston!) Love it! read more

So yummy!! I've been here twice now and it's been great both times. The staff is always friendly and helpful and the ice cream is so delicious. The place is kept clean as well, with the staff coming around and cleaning tables every now and then. The Uber flavor is so delicious and done right! Tastes like proper Ube. I hate going around and trying these Ube flavors because it's trending but half of them don't do it correctly and honestly the like they aren't even using Ube. But andias, they do it right. I trust them with all the flavors!! I also love that they make their own waffle cones and they are so delicious. Andias is a bit pricey, because these two cones cost me $20 but they're so good and are well worth their price. read more

I've come here before and always enjoy Andia's unique flavors, but most recently I came with my daughter and we tried their Pandan non-dairy / vegan ice cream, and I was super impressed with how spot on the flavor was for it. It tasted almost exactly like the Asian pandan-flavored desserts (mainly sticky rice) I enjoyed growing up - really nicely done with the coconut milk base, which helps maintain its creaminess. The following week, they had Ube available, and I was equally as impressed with that flavor as well. I also tried their vegan mint chocolate chip, and I would have been fooled if you didn't tell me it was vegan / dairy free. With my daughter having a dairy sensitivity, I'm glad Andia's has a handful of vegan / dairy-free options that also taste great. I've had their other traditional ice cream flavors in the past, and have never been disappointed with anything that I've tried. My favorite is still Baklava, but I don't think you can go wrong with the flavors here at Andia's. Parking is easy and plentiful, and there are indoor and outdoor seating options available. Plus, they've got a check-in deal that gives you a free waffle cone upgrade! read more

Two of my friends and I decided to split a flight and it was the best decision of my life. We also got a few samples of flavors and the person talking to us was fully SELLING the flavors- and they lived up to the (his) hype. All the flavors we tried were incredibly creamy, not cloyingly sweet, and very balanced. I love the branding of Andia's, the interior is super cute. I don't think there was any indoor seating, but there are benches in the shopping area and a few tables outside. The flavors we got: 1. Lemon Poppyseed: 10.1/10 I loved that this lemon is cream based, as opposed to a sorbet. The flavor was very fragrant and tasted more zest based than acidic, which I really enjoyed. Though poppyseeds were added into the base, I didn't taste much of them. The only reason this edged out black raspberry was because of how much I enjoyed the fragrance of the ice cream. 2. Black Raspberry: 10/10 Incredible and stunning. I love the color, but also how fresh the flavor is with no mix-ins. It has a light, but distinct fragrance and taste of raspberries. Once again, I love that this was not a sorbet. 3. Baklava: 8.5/10 Lots of cinnamon and real baklava mixed in! I love the flakes of phyllo I occasionally got with the ice cream. 4. Rose Pistachio: 8.3/10 I love anything pistachio flavor. The rose was not overpowering in fragrance or taste at all. The lightest, not intense fragrance of rose added the perfect amount of spice to an otherwise well known, standard flavor. 5. Mango Sticky Rice: 7.7/10 Didn't taste much mango! It mainly tasted like coconut and had rice grains mixed in. A few of my friends didn't enjoy the rice, but I thought it was a nice textural addition! It reminds me of the yogurt drink place (Duo Mi Yogurt) next to Nanxiang Xiao Long Bao in Flushing, where they mix purple rice as a topping into drinkable yogurt. 6. Ube: 7.5/10 Tasted more like coconut to me! I love the purple color. They also sell pints of ice cream for $10, which is a steep price, but after the ice cream flight I was ready to grab some black raspberry ice cream to go. Unfortunately, I reconsidered my finances and regrounded myself, but I'll be back for it! read more

After hearing good things about Andia's my wife and I were disappointed by our experience there. The first thing that rubbed us the wrong way was that they are meticulous about their portions. Each scoop is weighed for accuracy. This combined with their insistence on assigning a single employee to help each party, regardless of size, makes the line move at a crawling pace. My wife got the Butter Bear Float, which seemed to be more cream soda and marshmallow fluff than it was ice cream. I got the Butter Beer ice cream and the Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream. The first of those was okay, but I was disappointed with the latter. The Mint Chip's freckled mint texture was nice. But they advertised their mint flavoring as from home grown mint. I've tested many mint ice creams that pulled this flavor off much better. In summary, it feels like they nickel and dime customers, take a lot of your time, and the ice cream tasted only okay to us. We LOVE going to local ice cream shops, but I'd rather get Publix brand ice cream than come back here. read more

Loved this little local spot! We tried an ice cream flight so we could taste as many flavors as possible. It was the perfect amount!

I cannot even begin to express how amazing this ice cream was. We got the creme brulee ice cream and a sampler with lychee, black raspberry, rose pistachio, brownie batter, ice cream cake and salted caramel. The lychee was life changing. If pints in lychee were available in that flavor, I would have gotten a dozen! Unfortunately this is a temporary flavor but the company needs to make it permanent!!!! It was so light and refreshing. Rose pistachio and black raspberry was also amazing. All flavors were great, no disappointment, other than the lychee pints selling out. The line wrapped around the store and outside. The service was very fast and efficient and the staff was very friendly. The story of behind Andia is on the wall and so sweet. It really captures the culture and ambience of the whole company. read more

Yummy and delicious ice cream. As you can see from their timeline on their wall, this is a well established ice cream shop and the flavors are more "simple" than some other new ones. However, that doesn't take anything away from the flavor and quality of their ice cream. It also doesn't take away anything from their innovatativeness as they still have non-standard flavors and concoctions like the creme Brule style. Must try read more
