There's also parking on site which is a plus! My go-to is usually the Unicorn Half & Half (half milkshake, half ice cream), which is topped with cotton candy, nerds, rainbow sour strips. The ice cream used is bubble gum! If you're not interested in their options listed, you can always creat your own! For the piece, you do get a large serving as well. Their paninis are also delicious! I love their Doritos Chicken Panini ($6.99). It is one of my favourites and is something I'd recommend trying.

Panini & Ice cream has been a great addition to Hamilton's dessert scene & I thought I'd update my…read morereview as warmer times are on their way. AMBIANCE: (4/5) The restaurant has expanded since I've been there last. There is much more seating in the back and they added a picture wall that you can use to take IG-worthy photos with your dessert. The lighting is soft but bright which also makes it a great place to hang out The front of the store is getting a little haggard. FOOD: (3/5) The sizes of the icecream scoops here are crazy. I absolutely love how much they give you - matching the price point in terms of quantity. 1. Oreo Icecream Sundae: This sundae was gi-normous and looked soo good - with whip cream, chocolate drizzle, and oreo cookies lining the cup. However, it was a little unsatisfactory. The 'oreo' icecream they used had basically no oreo in the mix. The icecream itself was bland (???). 2. Pralines & Cream: I LOVE pralines & cream. The kiddy scoop I got was so worth it. The icecream was creamy and thick. Exactly like the ones at Purdy's (my absolute favorite) but at a better price. SERVICE: (3/5) The service wasn't SPECTACULAR but was not lacking. The counter stretches around to the convenience store as well, so they service both. The icecream came out 8'ish minutes after we ordered (only 2 people in front of us) - which may be an issue in the summer time as it gets busier. OVERALL: (3.5/5) This is a store you come back at least once a year just because their pics look so good on Instagram & if you don't want to trek uptown to Biggies Icecream.

The flavours change daily as they only make a small batch of flavours so if you're in the Hamilton area, it's a must-try spot. I went with the Coconut and Cookie on top and Blue Mist, a combination of fruit flavours. I enjoy that Coconut and Cookie as it has the pure Coconut taste and is even more fun with a chunky bite-size cookie from that scoop. I don't know how they did and that was incredible. The Bubble Gum, Butterscotch Ripple, and Berry Port (Boozy Ice Cream) are notable Flavours. Gotta come back to this place when they're Watermelon Lavender back in stock.

I'm sure in the summer I will have better luck. The inside is cute due to the graphics on the wall. It is a little small, so on summer days when I'm sure it's packed, don't plan on sitting inside. It's really lose tot he mountain brow, so I would recommend getting your ice cream and then go for a nice walk along the brow (weather permitting).

There's absolutely no place to sit or stand to enjoy your ice cream. The patio apparently belongs to a coffee shop, and you'll get kicked off it quickly despite them having zero customers. Disappointing. After going several times, I'm finally giving up hope. Hewitt's ice cream is amazing, but I'll be buying it elsewhere for sure. Like Jax Sweet Shoppe in Dundas.

Delicious flavours, lots of choice, and…read moremassive servings for only a couple bucks (I never have to get more than a double scoop, which is really more like 3 scoops at a regular place, and often one scoop is plenty; both of those options are less than $5). It's very bare bones inside, and the service is basic, but how much service do you really need for a scoop of ice cream? They're there and happy to serve you for the brief 4 minutes you'll be standing there. You can sit outside, but this really isn't a hang out place. It's more like a "go and get an ice cream to take with you on a summer evening stroll" kind of place. So, if you are looking to be waited on and to sit and hang out for a while, this isn't the place. If you're looking for delicious ice cream served in huge scoops for a very reasonable price, this is the place for you!

Not…read moregoing to lie, given the nature of the puffs, I did worry that delivery wasn't the way to go but we took the leap anyways and these ended up being so good! They took about an hour to arrive and we got 4 flavours: choco-loco, strawberry, cinnapuffs, and caramel. From the first bite, we were all in love. So much so that my sister had to call the restaurant to find out what kind of oil they fried in (canola) because she felt my brother-in-law HAD to try these. His first bite ended with a "wow". These were sweet but not as sweet as you might expect and despite the delivery time of maybe an hour, still had a great crunch! Our order of deliciousness was choco loco, cinnapuffs, strawberry and than caramel (much to our surprise). We will definitely be trying others! We also got a milkshake and hot chocolate. Both good but the puffs are the obvious standout. Ambiance and service is hard to speak to since this was an Uber delivery but the lady on the phone was helpful enough and the branding of the product is clear and bright. Plus, everything came packaged nicely.

You can see them make the puffs fresh right in front of you! I got two of their most popular flavours (chocolate bueno and strawberry cheesecake). Will definitely be going back to try some other flavours. The puffs have a light and crunchy taste that just melt in your mouth .

The service was also great and hassle free.
