    First visit disappointed they were out of all "no sugar added" ice cream. Drive thru service was timely on a HOT Tuesday evening. This local ice cream establishment has a bright, well lit exterior and a busy walk up order counter. Lots of scrumptious flavor combos to choose from. Drove by this place several times thinking I should check it out! So glad I did! Small hand made batches of lushly creamy ice cream is its claim to fame. Definitely worth stopping for!

    Well, this was just a pit stop over the weekend.. I do every now and then get a cheat day.. And I must say my go to is to always to find a good place who can quench my desire for a delicious Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream.. I received good service and a good treat for my sweet tooth.. This wasn't the first time I had it but this time it was prepared a little better. It had more balance.. So therefore you see a 4star **** review.. I would recommend this location if you're in the area..

    So yummy! Great selection of old-fashion ice cream. Pretty large menu and they will build whatever you ask for really. I love everything I've had. I only wish they had some lactose-free options because my daughter has major lactose issues. If that's not a problem and you want good, creamy ice cream, don't drive past bruster's!

    I love this little gem. I mean real homemade ice cream...with a "drive thru"?!!! So when it's like 30 degrees out and you want ice cream w/o getting out of the car...this is the place for you. Employees are always super friendly and portions are so generous. A Small is huge!!!! There are sooo many different flavors!!! I'd say well over 15 flavors...could be more. If you need lids, just ask.

    Southern Banana Puddin' Is Spectacular! My new fav ice cream spot! Seriously, if you have the opportunity and going to splurge on a different twist on Bananas give this baby a try. It's texture is light and fluffy yet with a creamy airy taste. Not too sweet and with some type of cookie parts mixed in with it. I forgot to ask what else is in it. I wish I lived in the area so I could have more opportunities to explore the other flavors. I will be back when I can. I have it in a waffle cone for approximately $4. They let you sample and even give free ice cream to your dog if he/she is with you!! 2thumbs up for that bonus!

    Visiting while in town this ice cream joint the locals rave about. Being that I've never been there I just ordered a simple one scoop chocolate ice cream in a cup. 4.12. I was SHOCKED! If I had known it would be that much for some average tasting ice cream I would have gone to Dairy Queen. At least I would have gotten my money's worth!

    The girl at the front window got smart with me after I asked her for napkins. Her response was I usually hand those out when I give your card and receipt back. You cant hand a 4 year old a ice cream cone with sprinkles all over it without napkins or a cup. It was somebody without a uniform on so they must have been a manager. To the people at Brusters please be a little nicer when somebody ask you for some napkins. If I come there and spend $15 I think I deserve some napkins

    $4.11 scoop of ice cream. Totally not worth it. Boo on you Bruster's!! I won't be back!
    Anna H.

    Very disappointing. My single scoop at $4.11 was pathetic. It's only gotten worse over time. Perhaps new ownership?

    To get to the window you have to cross the entrance / exit to the parking lot and the exit of the drive thru

    Pretty decent ice cream shop along (or near) the boardwalk in Solomon's. While no Baskin Robbins…read morewith its 31 flavors, the Ice Cream Place still has a pretty good selection of ice cream flavors. For me, I am a happy camper as long as an ice cream shop has vanilla, chocolate, cookies n cream, or mint chocolate chip...and The Ice Cream Place had those. :) *I"m pretty "boring" when it comes to my ice cream flavors.* Prices were a bit higher than I anticipated (especially since they don't post prices), but I think that's the way things go on the Boardwalk. I had no concerns reading the service and ambiance of the ice cream shop. Although The Ice Cream Place is worth a visit, especially if you have the young ones with you, I would not go too far out of my way to visit. Then again, I'm not a huge fan of ice cream.

    The posted closing time was 8:30 p.m. We arrived at 7:24 p.m.--more than an hour before…read moreclosing--and as we were literally reaching for the door handles, the doors were locked in our faces. No explanation, no apology, no acknowledgment. Just locked out. If a business doesn't intend to honor its posted hours, it should change them. Customers shouldn't have to guess whether "open" actually means open. After reading other reviews describing similar problems with inconsistent hours and rude treatment, apparently our experience wasn't unique. We won't waste our time coming back. There are plenty of businesses in Solomons that actually seem to want customers.

    Great little shop in Leonardtown! On New Year's Eve, my sister-in-law took all the girls to…read moreLeonardtown to do some walking and window shopping while the boys went golfing. She brought us to Heritage Chocolates which is located in an old house. It's super cute inside with the left half as an open kitchen. You get to see all the yummy things they are cooking up! They have a large room at the front of the house with a velvet couch with the chocolates and candies displayed on bookshelves. You'll find more in the hallway and they also have a selection of handmade gelato in the back. We picked up some chocolate covered strawberries that were being made for NYE, chocolate covered pretzels and a chocolate covered apple. The gal who took care of us included an extra chocolate covered strawberry because she felt that a couple of the strawberries was on the smaller side. I thought that was so sweet! All items purchased didn't last long. We had 8 people in the house, so you can imagine the speed of distribution and consumption. The strawberries were definitely a hit and great little treat to end the year on a sweet note! Stay safe, Friends!

The place had ample…read moreselection of chocolate covered oreos and fruits and nuts, as well as boxed assortments, a ton of Easter bags, and gelato. I wasn't expecting the gelato, but it looked good so I gave it a shot. And I must say, the mint chip, which actually didn't look as appealing as the other flavors in the display, was quite impressive. There were a ton of fine chocolate scrapings inside that gave a slightly bitter contrast to the sweet and aromatic mint. The other flavor I tried was strawberry, which was forgettable by comparison. I did get a chocolate box sampler. The ones I've tried have been good, though I'm a bit peeved it isn't labeled. This place did not seem to be one that offered a ton for the dairy-free crowd or the allergen crowd, so figure there's a lot of dairy and nuts going on here. But if you eat those things, you'll be satisfied.

    After church we were looking for a place for lunch and the CD Cafe was really close by…read more It's a cute little hole-in-the-wall sort of place. It's not very big (I counted only 11 tables), but definitely very cozy. The menu was fairly similar to some other places in the area (fish tacos are always temping, lol), but I managed to find something different. Service was a little slow, as we were part of a big rush and there were only 4 employees (2 servers, 2 kitchen). But it was worth the wait. My wife had the French toast from the Sunday brunch menu, while I had the chicken banh mi wrap. Both were very good. Since it's right around the corner from our church, we will definitely come back again.

My wife started with a Cosmo, her favorite cocktail, and said it was excellent. We shared the strawberry salad lunch special and the Popeye burger with fries. The fries were an unusual and cool wide spiral cut, and some of the best we'd ever had. The burger was wagyu beef with Boursin and spinach. The salad had a nice touch of candied walnuts. We got dessert. The flourless lava cake and the key lime pie. Both were amazing and took us to the threshold of diabetes. This has to be one of the best restaurants in the area! It's absolutely wonderful.
