Everyone experiencing a hot summer day needs a Laurel Creamery ice cream treat! A busy day…read moreexploring stores and the town, ice cream was needed. There was plenty of parking in the gravel lot next to the building. A few tables inside and several outside. There was so many ice cream treats to choose from like scoops, cones, milkshakes, and more. I chose 2 scoops of ice cream in a cup with a waffle cone on top - ya know, to not be so messy. I got a coffee flavor and a chocolate chip. The ice cream was so creamy and flavorful. The waffle cone was yummy and adds the right amount of crunch to the dessert. My mom ordered the strawberry cheesecake ice cream treat and she was in heaven with it. We couldn't rave more about this place. The quantities were VERY LARGE. We were shocked when they served them to us. The prices also were so cheap compared to ice cream spots in Central Florida. The customer service was top tier. We loved looking at the kids artwork that covered the walls. It really shows how engaged with the community this spot is and how many families they serve.

From watching the show Home Town, Shug's was definitely on the list to pick up some sweet treats…read morewhile visiting Laurel. There was plenty of parking across the street from the shop. There is ice cream, milkshakes, cookie dough, and baked treats to choose from. Inside the store there are several tables to sit at to escape the heat of summer. We made our way over to the baked treats and purchased an assortment to bring back to our AirBnB. The customer service was great and helpful when making our selections. Let's get to the goodies! I loved the cookie square I got with the watermelon in icing on top. Makes for a cute seasonal dessert. The cookies were yummy along with the white chocolate peanut butter balls. Stop here for your baked treats!

My visit to Shug's initially excited me as they had a lot of really amazing looking things. The…read moreambiance of this spot really is nice and they have a lot of great looking stuff to see when you first walk in. The service here was very friendly and a lot of very nice folks. I've never seen any macaroons anywhere else in the Laurel, MS area so I was really happy to see they had them here. I LOVE macaroons so I was so excited to get one and bit into it... sadly I found my experience to be a very dry crumbly macaroon that I might go so far as to call stale. I've eaten many macaroons in my time and this one is on the bottom of my list sadly. I would suggest sticking with the other items here like the candy as I did enjoy my chocolate candy I ate. Overall this is the only game in Laurel, MS for desserts like this and for your macaroon fix I would wait for a visit to New Orleans.

Honestly, a highlight of our trip and core memories for our kids. The employees were FABULOUS and the ice cream was top notch! Affordable prices and loads of topping options.

I arrived not long after opening one day for coffee and breakfast. We seem to have been the first…read moreones in. The building is large with very tall ceilings and a large staircase in the back that leads to an upstairs area. The menu is fairly small with options of quiche, breakfast sandwiches, and coffee options. I ordered a breakfast sandwich that was pressed like a panini with a side of fresh fruit. The sandwich was fresh tasting and the perfect amount for breakfast. My mom ordered the quiche. She reported it had good flavor but was more "wet" and not as sturdy as a traditional quiche. The coffee is freshly brewed and gave me the morning pick me up I so desperately needed. The staff were helpful and it took only about 5 minutes or so to receive our food. I love seeing the history of the buildings in Laurel. This one definitely provides plenty. There were large machinery in the front to look at as well as games.

Gelato joint that probably has the best gelato and best version of ice cream in all of the area…read morecurrently. This is the ONLY gelato spot I know about in Laurel, MS. If you have a craving for a cool dessert this is the best option to be found. They also serve this gelato across the street at Mimmo's Ristorante Pizzeria but this spot is operated as a separate business so you can just grab some gelato in a more casual setting. Overall this is the best dessert experience I have had in the realm of ice cream in the area!

Quiet place to get out of heat, nice employee- but I tasted two flavors & both were freezer burnt…read more I felt like my friend & I had to get something after tasting two flavors- so I got one scoop & the scoop was very small in like a 4oz cup and was $5 which is more than it should be- (in southern Mississippi- so I'm comparing local prices not prices compared to San Francisco) ... my friend got two scoops in cone which was not great & also overpriced- also there were several pans with barely enough for a scoop so the selection was less than advertised- the place was nice and cute decor but it was completely empty- so we spent $20 and tipped out of sympathy mostly! Mimmos restaurant is great- maybe they should just offer gelato at the restaurant across the street & not waste all the extra cost of having this across the street- ... God bless & I hope my review helps others make the best food and beverage experience in their travels - and always BUY AND SUPPORT LOCAL & SMALL FAMILY BUSINESSES- as this is why America is great!!
