    he Foundation: Where Craft Meets Precision Big Dipper's base, with its 16% butterfat and under 30% aeration, reflects deliberate craftsmanship. The result is exceptional: silky without being greasy, with a melt that balances softness and structure. Across 18 flavors, texture remained flawless--no crystals, no inconsistency--just smooth, bold uniformity. This isn't just a great product; it's technical precision. Sami Cooper has perfected the ratio, building a foundation that rivals the best in the country. The next test is ingredient integration--where flavor balance, mix-in ratios, and execution separate novelty from true creative control. Flavors Dark Chocolate Dark, decadent, devilish, and delicious--the chocolate ratio strikes a perfect balance between bittersweet and semi-sweet, allowing the depth of dark chocolate to reveal itself in layers with every bite. Rich, initial notes hit boldly, followed by lingering earthy and delicate fruity undertones that unfold slowly on the palate. The mouthfeel is exquisite: smooth, creamy, and indulgent without being heavy. This is chocolate ice cream at its most refined--complex yet controlled. A true pièce de résistance in the realm of chocolate ice cream. Madagascar Vanilla Bean The dark chocolate's counterpart in ice cream heaven, this Madagascar vanilla delivers yet again with a flawless mouthfeel--but what truly impresses is how the Madagascar vanilla's signature woody, floral, and gently spicy notes aren't an afterthought. They're fully realized, beautifully integrated, and elevated into a vanilla ice cream that stands not as a backdrop, but as the second pièce de résistance ice cream offering. Strawberry Intense strawberry flavor sings through a backdrop of sweet cream, serenading the senses with a sublime, almost meditative balance. The fusion of ripe berry and velvety cream is executed with such harmony, it feels effortless. But make no mistake--this is precision disguised as simplicity. Sami Cooper has crafted what may be one of the silkiest, most balanced strawberry ice creams in the country--lush, clean, and unforgettable. Weirdo - Cold Brew Coffee A sweet latte in a cup, this flavor opens and closes with clear notes of coffee, wrapped in toasty, earthy undertones reminiscent of caramelized sugar and roasted beans. Each spoonful offers warmth and comfort--but leans heavily into sweetness. While pleasant, it misses the opportunity to explore the deeper, more robust side of coffee. A touch more bitterness or roast could have added complexity and restraint. Ultimate Cookies and Cream This take on the 1980s classic is nothing short of a total success. The rich, creamy base is beautifully blended with classic chocolate cookie wafers, achieving that memorable flavor profile at a distinctly elevated level. It's everything a great cookies and cream should be--creamy, crunchy, deeply nostalgic, and refined enough to feel grown up. Cookie Butter Cookie Dough This take on a classic opens with buttery cookie notes, followed by warm hints of cinnamon and caramel, finishing with the familiar richness of chocolate chip cookie dough. The mix-in ratio is generous without overwhelming. However, the flavor lacks contrast, and there's little discernible difference between the buttery cookie base and the cookie dough itself. The elements blend into a single sweet note. Honeycomb Lavender A staple on the Big Dipper menu, this sweet cream base is studded with delicate honeycomb and layered with flavor. It opens with golden honey, glides into rich cream at the center, and finishes with soft, floral notes of lavender that bloom on the palate. It's balanced, elegant, and deeply evocative--like summer captured in a scoop. This ice cream doesn't just taste good; it hums. Bees might weep. A third pièce de résistance in a lineup that's proving Big Dipper knows exactly what it's doing.

    It was busy the day we were there

    Yum! What can I say!! We took our grandkids here and they couldn't decide what they wanted. The staff was so kind to them and gave them little tastes of each flavor. The shop is so cute. You can eat inside or outside and enjoy your ice cream.

    The ice cream here is incredible! I usually only have this kind of treat while traveling, so I'm glad to have such quality at home!

    Very hip ice cream shop in brookside! I got 1 scoop red Velvet in a cup. It had amall chunks of red velvet cake but I was disappointed because it had no red velvet taste. It was like I was eating flavorless cream. But I gave 5 stars because the ice cream my Boyfriend was so flavorful. He got honeycomb lavender which was so good! Ooey gooey butter cake that was also so yummy especially the chunks of cake in it and pony boy. Even though my red velvet didn't have any flavor, if still go back for the other flavors!

    Man, oh, man! The vegan ice cream is phenomenal. When it comes to desserts, I don't want to feel "weighed down," so I tend to stick to vegan desserts. Their selection of vegan ice creams is top notch. They do have regular ice cream, which my partner tells me is really good. I'm obsessed with their vegan cookies 'n cream. It never disappoints!! Their cones are also yummy.

    Okay...This is the most unfair review I've written. The classic (one of the specialties) ingredients: 1. Madagascar Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - like 2. Caramel fudge - like like 3. Candied pecans - like like like I challenge you to find something you don't like at Big Dipper Creamery. It's certainly not the ice cream, maybe the service or ambiance. Unfair 5 stars for not even giving me a chance.

    Bubble cone
    Eileen S.

    My fav ice cream place! I usually buy a pint back when I am there. I love all the berry flavored ice cream they have and really enjoy the bubble cone. They were pretty busy on a Wednesday evening so I can kind of understand why they only sell the bubble cone on Tuesdays in summer.

    This is their third location and I'm so glad it's close to me. The building is super cute and welcoming, with lots of seating available inside and outside. There are lots of flavors to choose from but I'm faithful to their dark chocolate. You can choose single, double scoops, sundaes, shakes or even make your own ice cream sandwich. Their waffle cones are delicious. You can choose to add toppings for a bit extra. Their specialty sundaes are delicious. Try the Bees Knees with honeycomb lavender ice cream, lemon curd and candied pecans or the Peanuts about you with dark chocolate ice cream, Reese's peanut butter sauce and Reese's pieces. When the weather is nice, their patio seating is great. Friendly and fast service too! Always a great spot to stop by for a treat.

    There is a small lot to the side of the building and limited street parking in front. It's got a retro chill vibe when you walk in. There are lots of icee cream options to choose from and about 6 vegan ice cream options. You can also purchase a boozey milkshake, don't mind if I do. I appreciate the variety and the service is friendly. I created my own boozey ice cream beverage and the mixer suggested another liqueur that made it even better. You will enjoy your refreshing and cool experience here.

    Awesomeness! Great ice cream, great options. From ice cream to sorbet to cocktails. Waffle cones, waffle cups, cones, cups. Its got it all!

    This is my favorite ice cream in Tulsa. Two locations; brookside and mother road market. Can't speak for ambiance of the store as I've not been but every flavor is on pint with the base and added chunks etc. This is a local must try! All workers have been great as well.

We rode our bikes there since it's conveniently located off the Midland Valley Trail. I wish they had a bike rack nearby. The light pink tiny cottage house quickly catches your eye. They have frozen treats including signature swirls and shakes. You can choose your flavor --vanilla or pineapple whip (lactose free). Then choose cone or cup and add your toppings ($1 each). The candy toppings are pretty extensive, from Reese's to gummy worms and sprinkles. You can also add syrups and fruit toppings. They have 13 signature swirls including Route 66 (vanilla soft serve with strawberry, hot fudge, whip cream and cherry) and piña colada (pineapple whip soft serve blended with coconut cream and coconut pieces). I tried their pineapple whip in a waffle cone with chocolate syrup. My husband tried their vanilla big boy cup ($6) with Reese's and butterfinger. They have shakes available in chocolate, vanilla or strawberry. They also have affogato and coke/root beer floats. There was a huge line when we got there but it went through pretty quickly. They have a good system to order and pick up on different sides. There's a big table outside but no seating available. Great addition to the neighborhood!

Our family ordered: the BootDaddy Concrete, Snowmonster Concrete, Butter Pecan Concrete, James Brownie Funky Jackhammer, Rico Suave Jackhammer, Tin Roof Sundae, and a kid's sundae with strawberry topping. It is rare that I will eat frozen custard, and I will usually order the smallest size because I try to watch my caloric intake. I ordered the Butter Pecan Concrete, and it was so delicious that I ate the entire thing. My family was amazed! It was thick, creamy, not too sweet, with the buttery, roasted pecans. I could eat those pecans all day long! Next time, I would like to try the root beer float.

Instead of a simple greeting like "Welcome to Sonic," I was bluntly hit with "What do you want?" over the speaker. No courtesy, no professionalism--just attitude. I let it go and said I had a mobile order for Larry, only to be told "pull forward" in a rude, demanding tone. It didn't get better. When my food came out, the employee practically shoved the bags into my face--aggressive and completely unnecessary. At that point, it was clear this wasn't just a bad moment; it was a complete lack of basic customer service. I called the store to speak with a manager, hoping to resolve the issue. Instead, I got even more unprofessional behavior. The manager dismissed the situation with "I'm not the one who did that." That's not the point--you're the manager, and it's your responsibility to address how customers are treated. When I pressed the issue, she escalated things further by cussing at me over the phone. Completely unacceptable. I've already filed a formal complaint with corporate, but given that complaints appear to be outsourced and handled with little accountability, I'm not holding my breath. If this is the standard of service at this location, customers should seriously consider going elsewhere. Respect costs nothing--and this place seems unwilling to offer even that.
