They have a good amount of flavors, many of them being of the chocolate or candy variety. I usually get a delicious chocolate peanut butter cup flavor. I do wish they had more fruit flavors like peach, blueberry, lemon or lime pie, etc. The portions are generous. They use to be cash only but they take cards now with a small fee to cover the cost. There are picnic tables outside so you can happily eat your ice cream while gazing at cars driving by on Reservoir. Not the most alluring view but they try to make it inviting with flowers in planters. And you have ice cream - so it's all good!

Very creamy with lots of hard ice cream and soft serve flavor burst options. They have frozen yogurt, sherbert, and sugar free options. I got a scoop of peanut butter Oreo and one of oatmeal cream cookie in a waffle cone. Great ice cream! Waffle cones are not freshly made - they are Joy brand. I personally love a fresh waffle cone so that would be my only hope that one day they start making their own! Friendly staff, good prices, and great music. Looking forward to coming back :)

I was on my way to the Narragansett Indian Tribe 351st Annual Meeting and Pow Wow, but since this was on the way, decided to stop by for a quick treat. I would say the name is partially accurate, in that there is not much in the area besides some nurseries and the diner next door. They do have a parking lot and a lot of picnic tables to choose from, some in the shade and others with umbrellas. Most of their ice cream comes from Gifford's, and some are New England Ice Cream and Warwick; I liked this level of transparency. I wanted to try something from Gifford's, but I couldn't say no to the Cinnamon Bun one from New England Ice Cream. My brother chose the Cashew Caramel Truffle from Warwick Ice Cream. We asked for both in a cup with a cone on top. The cutest little girl called out our order when it was ready and handed it to us through the window. The cinnamon one was amazing and tasted exactly like a cinnamon bun; it had cinnamon, the base tasted like the frosting with hints of condensed milk, and it had chunks of dough throughout. The caramel truffle was also very good. It is easy an on and easy off from the main road.

Another spot on the RI FOOD FIGHTS #bestscoopshopri list is Next to Nowhere Creamery. I've been…read morehere a few times, and it's always good to be back. The beige building sits high in the sun, creating a shaded area for the outdoor tables. A cool respite on yet another hot summer day. The woman at the window was great, her eyes lit up when I submitted my request for her favorite on a wafer cone. I also got a water bottle and about a minute later the next window town opened and two hands stuck out. One had my bottle of water and the other held a cone of s'mores ice cream. I chose to eat my ice cream in the car with the AC blasting. This is probably the best s'mores ice cream I've ever had. Made by Gifford's, a well known high quality New England ice cream company, the graham cracker ice cream base was so good, big swirls of marshmallow cream and flat chunks of chocolate that didn't get stuck in your teeth. This is why I like asking the workers their favorite, because I wouldn't have chosen this for myself but now that I know it exists I'll be ordering this flavor from now on!

The portions were GIANT and definitely can't be split between two. As for ice cream options there's not a whole lot. Like 4 main flavors if i remember correctly. There's no inside seating, only outdoors. If you want traditional ice cream this place is NOT for you. However if you're looking for something fun to try this is definitely your place.

Maybe because I saw several negative reviews I had low expectations, but I came here with a RI Food…read moreFights coupon, and I was really surprised at how great my ice cream was! Not only that, the cost/value is the best I've seen. Maybe I should do more investigative work as to where their ice cream comes from, but I really enjoyed it. Location is not ideal, but the parking was easy. The night we visited was chilly enough that my friend and I ate the ice cream inside my car, but on a sunny warm day, that outdoor seating is great. They had a small but reasonable amount of flavors...not so many that it was overwhelming, but enough that I couldn't decide on just one. The person scooping our ice cream was really sweet, and I wasn't sure if she could offer samples (since it's through a window and not at a counter), but she did. I tried the rum raisin and the black raspberry. I'm super picky about my black raspberry, and this is the first one I've really enjoyed outside of the Lincoln Creamery. She was able to split a small into two scoops, so I got one scoop of rum raisin and black raspberry, and I loved it. My friend got the campfire s'mores flavor. It was SO sweet. I could see a younger palate going nuts for it, but I was happy with my pick! I would definitely come back.

We visited the shop early September as part of the RI Food Fights ice cream passport. We arrived…read moreafter dark around 7:15pm. Parking is in front with lined spots or in a big dirt lot. There is a large area of benches and tables for sitting. The flavors are listed on a board and are easy to read. The only signage of ice cream is within the shop hidden on a back wall. Country Side Creamery uses Bliss ice cream, which I'll be honest, is not my favorite. The service was okay. The girl scooper did not look pleased to be working on a Friday night. I chose Campfire S'mores and the boyfriend chose Brownie Batter. The ice cream was okay.

I originally parked in the small lot on the right (when facing the building) and it was a very tight squeezed, but then realized there was a much larger parking lot on the other side, so I moved over there. It's been a while since I've visited The Inside Scoop. The last time I remember going, you went inside and ordered the ice cream. I'm not sure when they switched to the window, but I found it to be much more convenient than many people being squished inside a small space to order. There were lots of choices of ice cream to try, but I ultimately picked blueberry pie in a sugar cone. It was delicious. My mom picked peppermint (her favorite flavor) and was very happy with how many chunks of candy were in it. The employee that took our order was very friendly and seemed to scoop our ice cream well. Overall, The Inside Scoop is a must-try ice cream spot in this area.

I stopped by here after work this week as part of the RI FOOD FIGHTS #bestscoopshopri event. I used…read moreto live around the corner, so it was nice to visit here again. The heatwave was doing its thing, but luckily there's a good amount of shade in front of the building as you wait to be served. There's a tiny parking lot to the right of the boldly painted building, but an even bigger one to the left. If you have a larger vehicle, I recommend parking in the left lot. Plenty of space for you there! The young woman at the counter was super peppy and was excited to scoop me her favorite, black raspberry Oreo, on special that week. I grabbed extra napkins because the humidity outside was already working against me. I walked over to the seating area on the side and got to work quickly before nature won. The black raspberry ice cream was cool and creamy, great raspberry flavor without tasting artificial as some do. The oreos adding some chocolatey richness to the experience. It felt indulgent and refreshing. I basically inhaled it so I wouldn't wear it but every bite was fantastic. Inside Scoop has been there for ages, and for good reason. Next time you're in North Kingstown, swing by and try it out for yourself!
