My family loves Brics! It's a unique spot to visit. My kids love that it's in an old train station which makes the experience exciting for them. And of course the ice cream is so good! We've tried a few flavors and haven't had one that was disappointing. I'm not sure how often the flavors rotate, but there's always a great selection to choose from. The portions are generous, the service is great, and it's become our go-to place for ice cream. Definitely a great local spot for an after-dinner treat or a fun, quick outing with the kids! read more

Service was great, the ice cream flavors were pretty wide ranged as well.... Clean facility! That waffle cone was amaaaaazing. So happy better weather is here as this is perfectly positioned right by the monon to stop off for a cold/sweet treat read more

Arguably my favorite ice cream ever! The inside is unique with family friendly amenities. There is a nice outdoor space overlooking the Monon trail. The service is as you would expect for a popular ice cream shop - it's busy but they are friendly. I enjoy every visit to BRICS! read more

Super convenient spot right off the Monon. I love that they have the walk-up window making it even more convenient. Stopped in for a quick ice cream cone and the staff was extremely helpful as we took a moment to decide what to order. Their red velvet ice cream on top of a sugar cone = delicious! Can't wait to be back on another warm day. read more

Brics - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

An adorable ice cream shop reminiscent of the ones I would go to as a kid. Find them located in Broad Ripple, near the train tracks. They have a giant wooden patio with plenty of seating, umbrellas to block the sun, and twinkle lights for when the sun sets. The inside is cozy and gives off an old school vibe. The staff of kids and friendly owner were great with the recommendations. I ordered a cone of their red velvet with a cherry on top and it was deliciously rich. Good thing I was sharing it. I would definitely return to this neighborhood staple. read more

I have been to this ice cream parlor multiple times while out in Broad Ripple. The store is cute inside and on the outside also. I love how they have ice cream offered for the dogs. Also on the outside they have a water pan out so if you are walking your dog and they would like a drink it's there. The employees have always been great and will allow samples before making my choice on the ice cream I would like. I love that they have Superman ice cream because you definitely can't go wrong with this flavor. Superman has really stuck with me since my childhood lol. The prices of the items in the parlor are your normal typical prices. Also I love how this business also gives back to the community. If you are in the Broad Ripple area check them out. read more

Brics is an Indianapolis staple for great ice cream! They have a great pup cup for doggos that has whipped cream and peanut butter. Our doggo rates this place 5/5 as well Located on the Monon trail, Brics is a perfect sweet little treat to start or end an outdoor adventure. The staff has always been nice as well. I also like that they offer dishes for the ice cream, if you plan on staying for a bit, or they have compostable ones to go. Their coffee ice cream(whistlestop) and the mint ice cream(grasshopper) are my absolute favorites. The coffee is so dark and velvety-pairs well with a second scoop of French silk or whatever floats your boat. Give this place a try and you won't be disappointed! read more

I am an ice cream snob, and BRICs for sure passes the quality test. On top of that the serving sizes are worthy and impressively, the people working there obviously love ice cream and love their jobs. Great spot. read more

A variety of flavors, including a couple non dairy options. They have an inside dining area as well. They are open quite late, making it a good option for a post dinner treat. Employees are friendly. Parking is a bit tight with a few spaces. read more

After an incredible dinner at Cholita we walked a couple blocks to an old train station for ice cream from Brics. We went hoping they might have one vegan ice cream or sorbet. They had like eight. Sooooo good! And the staff was just as great as their scoops. Best ice cream ever. read more

Best ice cream in town. Lots of flavors to choose from. Vegan options. Cute porch to sit on.

Solid 4 stars. Creamy flavorful ice cream. I just wish there were more interesting flavor options. The smores was the most unique in my mind and was a nice blend. Decent size scoop for the price! We stayed inside to cool off from our hike. I loved that we got a cup of water while we were eating our ice cream . It was a nice touch and staff was friendly and helpful. We thought brics edged out the other local ice cream place. read more

We stopped here after lunch and were served by a kind gentleman who was also accompanied by what appeared to be his granddaughter. It was a quiet snowy day and it was very clean in there. It was warm and cozy and not busy at all due to weather. Our group dined in and the ice cream was served in glass ice cream bowls, an experince you dont get a lot of places. Our group chose the vegan ice cream. We are not vegan but enjoy it now and again. Its oat milk based. It was good, not as good as the experience of regular icecream, but not bad for the alternative. We would go back to try other flavors when we are in the area. read more

Cool off at this stop off the Monon trail! Right in the middle of broad ripple. There's seating inside and outside and is east facing so might be in the shade in the afternoon. Lots of flavors to choose from for ice cream. There are other goodies as well. I got the cookies n cream, smallest size. It was the perfect amount of ice cream. This place stays pretty busy on nice warm days. read more

Brics - Cookies n cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Mediocre ice cream at best. Service leaves a bit to be desired as well. Lift-off creamery is MUCH better.

9:03 AM ice cream run at BRICS just hits different Perfect creamy texture, not too sweet, and exactly the kind of vibe you need to start the day happy. The staff was super friendly and the whole place felt chill and cozy. Honestly, ice cream this good before 10 AM should be illegal. Already thinking about my next flavor combo! read more

The checked their hours on Google, which said closes at 9:30, and Apple Maps, which said closed at 10pm. We arrived around 9:15 and they were closed and the workers turned us away. There was a sign on the door that said they close at 9:30 on Friday's. Please have accurate hours and/or do not allow employees to close early. read more

BRICS is one of the best ice cream shops around. It's always busy, but the employees work fast to work through their lines, whether it be inside or the order window outside. It's always clean, and has plenty of seating options both inside and on the patio- or you can take your ice cream to go and take a walk on the Monon! I've never had a flavor I didnt enjoy. This visited, I got French Silk and Grasshopper. They were both new flavors to me, and I'll definitely order them again! I will also add, my dog Roz thinks their pup cup is better than EVERYWHERE else's. read more

Brics - Almond Joy - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

It's a cute shop with indoor and outdoor seating and right on the monon trail. I loved the straight forward flavor names, the variety, and the mini metal spoons for tasting! Our group sat outside during the hot afternoon with the shade from the building keeping us cool. It was popping when we got there but we were served as quickly as possible and the staff was friendly. Unfortunately I devoured my key lime pie flavor so quickly I didn't get to snap a pic! read more

Fun ice cream shop that we happened to walk in to on the Monon Trail. We happened to go on the same day as their 15th anniversary and the same day as the Full Mo race (running the full Monon Trail). The ice cream was free for everyone all day to celebrate their anniversary and they had face paintings along with other free family activities. Really enjoyed the ice cream and dogs are allowed on the porch. That day the owner was there and gladly watched peoples dogs as they got their ice cream in store. Fun place! read more

Stopped in with friends after dinner. I love how the ice cream shop is laid out and they have inside and outdoor seating. After perusing the wide variety of flavors available (so hard to choose) we each ordered. Me and a friend ordered cones and our other friend ordered a cup. I chose the Biscoff caramel flavor and sadly I don't remember what my friends had but I know one of them had chocolate. The other flavor I wanted to try was the lemon cheesecake but since I was a bit full I settled on just one flavor. I'll definitely be back to try the lemon cheese cake flavor. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I also noticed as we were leaving that they even have some vegan options available. This made me happy to see as not a lot of ice cream shops have vegan options or else only have 1 or 2 flavors on offer. read more

Brick never disappoints. We arrived just as it seems everyone on the Monon decided they also wanted ice cream lol. However, service still moved at a brisk pace while continuing to check in with us indecisive patrons on choosing a flavor. I chose cookie butter but was pleased to see that they also have a dairy free section which was also pretty yummy(of the one I sampled.) The patio area is great for these warmer months so I can't wait to return for more. read more

Brics - Cookie butter - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Brics is such a cute ice cream shop that has really cemented itself as a local legend in Broad Ripple. I love that Brics posts signs advertising local events, and the patio with picnic tables is a great place for larger groups to enjoy desserts together. The outdoor ordering window and train-themed decorations are really charming and make Brics feel more special than just any regular ice cream shop. I tried the cookie butter ice cream, which was advertised as a customer and staff favorite. It had such a rich flavor, and I really enjoyed the Biscoff ripple. My sister had a birthday cake milkshake, and it took a while to make because it was hand-spun instead of just thrown in a blender. I was pleased with the efficiency of the staff, especially their use of the ticket system to call up customers. Even though we came at a very busy time, we hardly had to wait. Brics is a perfect place to enjoy some ice dream while walking the Monon, or even treating your group with a party pack! I cannot wait to come back next time I'm in Broad Ripple! read more

I never knew this hidden gem was so delicious. I was asked "You want to go get some icecream"? Sure let's try this spot I've never been. Why have I never been? I've been twice within a week now. Delicious . After trying a couple of flavors it was hard to decide what to get. So get both! Even though this is not in my "diet" plan I have to have a cheat day or two . I most definitely will be returning read more

This place has the best ice cream in Broad Ripple! The servings have great sizing with fresh ice cream that also rotate in flavors throughout the week. They also have a variety of sundaes, sorbets, and vegan options that give a variety of options for all guests. Service is always great with super quick and easy workers that also take the time to give you free glasses of water during your visit. They also have fun card games located at each table if wanting to spark some new conversation while you sit. This cute shop located right off the Monon trail allows for great ambiance. Guests of all ages visit regularly and the trail lets people stop for a quick treat on their way! It's also great walking distance to any restaurants in Broad Ripple, so it is great for an after dinner treat! read more

This is a cute little ice creamery. I tried the vegan Birthday Cake and the vegan Cookie Butter. That Cooke Butter was excellent! Made me want to take home the entire scoop bucket. 10/10 for that vegan ice cream flavor! They had a nice selection of vegan options to chose from. Service was 1-star. I just had a horrible experience with the kid that was "helping" me the night I went. Just the classic more interested in socializing with their coworkers/friends than assisting customers. And any request feels like an annoyance. However, the next time I'm in Indy, I'll be back looking for more vegan cookie butter! read more

Soaring temperatures call for cool ice-creams. Long lines but moved super fast. The chocolate Chooo-Choo and salted Caramel was a divine combo. Salty, Carmelyy & just the right hint of sweetness. There were nice card interactions games at every table and we had fun playing those while eating. Bonus was BRICs serving ice cold water to all the customers since it was 100 degrees. We totally enjoyed the ice creams, the interactive games and stellar customer service. read more

Brics has got the best prime location: smack dab on the Monon Trail in busy Broad Ripple. If ypu are biking, skating, walking the trail then you are sure to pass Brics and will often see a line wrapped around or people and their dogs happily enjoying a cool treat. I also love that Bric passes out free iced glasses of water to their patrons. So much exercising happens on the trail, it's so nice that they care about keeping everyone cooled and refreshed. Brics portions are HUGE! You'll spend a little less than $5 for their small cone, but it would be another shop's medium or large size for sure! You can enjoy your treats on the outdoor patio/deck or inside. If you eat inside, take advantage of their conversation starter cards at the tables! I prefer a silkier texture to my ice cream and a richer taste than what I have sampled thus far here, but my children have no complaints. read more

This is an amazing ice cream stand. I got the mint fudge and it's probably some of the best ice cream I've had in Indy. It was so delicious. The price was really great, too. It's right off of the Monon trail. Perfect for a pit stop while biking. There are a couple bike racks here, too. Lots of seating inside and outside. Friendly staff and quick service. You need to visit this place and try it out!! read more

Brics is really cute and I am always a fan of a repurposed building--so the train car depot occupation and theme is a lot of fun. Unfortunately I found out that the ice cream isn't homemade after being under the impression that it is. They've got quite a large selection of flavors and the staff is nice, but the ice cream itself isn't my favorite read more

Cutest little spot with tons of ice cream flavors! I love that there is inside and outside seating. Being right off the Monon makes it so convenient if you're going for a walk. Definitely a great spot if you're looking for non-chain ice cream! read more

Have always wanted to stop here, glad we finally did! Always pass by on my runs, such a cute spot right off the Monon. Great patio seating as well as inside. No waiting in line, just order when you're ready which is nice. Not sure how that would work during peek hours, but worked really well for us! Got to try samples and ended up with a few different flavors. Each one had great texture and they flavors were unique and flavorful. Price is similar to other places in the area. Would love to go back and try more flavors! read more

Kill me, that was probably the best ice cream of my life. I like the idea of ice cream, but it's usually so sweet I end up yucking it into the trash. I had the blackberry with the 'tart swirl'. It was a tart swirl. For those who like a little tart with their sweet, eat this. Perfect flavor balance, nuanced and addictive. read more
