    Closest you'll get to a frozen custard around here. Got hooked on the Ghirardelli flavor last quarter. Reese's this quarter is pretty good too, have it with chocolate crunchies! Yum!

    Got the Oreos Cookies and Cream!

    Great ice cream but even better service. The two women working when I went (Maddie and Teairra) were absolutely wonderful!

    Came a few weeks ago for my four year old son's birthday…read more When I got there my mom had already ordered the pulled pork baked potato. It looked really good and she mentioned her friend always got the buffalo chicken baked potato so I got that. Potato was a bit undercooked, basic buffalo sauce and a couple of frozen chicken fingers. It was topped with cheddar and sour cream - some blue cheese in there would have been nice. I wouldn't order this dish again. My son had the Mac and cheese which was good. Both my wife and daughter got the chicken penne vodka which was really really good. My son loved, even if he was a bit scared of, the cupcake with the sparkler. Would definitely come back, just ordering something different next time. Other people's burgers looked great.

    Bell city dinner is my favourite brunch spot I just love coming here ! They have so many fun…read moreoptions to try from massive milkshakes to glittery mimosas/ margaritas to instagram worthy food options , but also having options for a simple scrambled eggs and bacon ! This time I tried the new seasonal special apple crisp cheesecake French toast ! Yes that's a mouthful to say but it was sooo good if you have a huge sweet tooth like me it was amazing !!! A must try ! Service is always good we have always been able to get a seat and the staff always super friendly . Great service , They got us seated , ordered , served and out the door in about an 1hour . Overall 5/5 again great food , great service and great ambiance the whole place is always decorated and I loved the added lights over the ceiling !

    Lacroix’s Homemade Ice Cream - The most delicious s'mores and black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream

    Don't judge the ice cream by the store front. It just reads "ice cream" and next to an indoor…read moresports complex and a restaurant in an industrial looking store front, it would be easy to dismiss. Don't. This is excellent home made ice cream that has just enough creative flavors to satisfy the curious but has established the standards with a high quality to draw the purists. I loved my mint Oreo ice cream and cookie dough flavor too. The s'mores was not overwhelmingly sweet and had the right mix of marshmallow, graham cracker and chocolate. Service was quick and friendly. Seating is fine outside but we saw a lot of people eating in their cars. Still loved this place. Big thumbs up.

    Pulled into the old Marlin Rockwell industrial site, converted to small businesses…read more Be careful of potholes when you pull in, and the layout is a little different. On the far right of the old conversion of the building, sits Lacroix's ice cream shop When I parked in front of the building, there were no cars and looked closed, even walking up to the building. There's a small "open" sign displayed in the window, but with the dark tinted windows and doors, it looked closed. Checking the sign showed that it was open, closed on Mondays. I pulled on the door and....oh my goodness the place was open! Surprise! Greeted warmly by the staff, a quick look at the menu and I ordered one scoop of black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream, and one scoop of S'mores As my two scoops of ice cream was being prepared, the nice young lady at the front rang me up. It was a little over six dollars for the two scoops plus I left a 20% tip so I'm thinking this was some around eight bucks. They do take tap and credit card pay. Once I received my ice cream order, I proceeded outside to sit at one of the picnic tables on the right hand side of the business This little area is interesting, as it was at one time an industrial manufacturing facility, and the owners don't seem to be trying to make it welcoming. So this business installed a few picnic tables and flower boxes, who h made it somewhat inviting. But I'm still sitting in the parking lot. The s'mores ice cream was so creamy, marshmallow based with a lovely creamy, delightful, vanilla ice cream, graham crackers and pieces of chocolate chips added. This choice, as I was told, is of the more popular choices . I would strongly suggest trying this flavor out. Now, the black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream was some of the best I ever had. So creamy, so raspberry, so chocolate, so sweet! Plus, I loved how the s'mores melted into this flavor, making a wonderful combination in that cup. This place is a great destination if you want ice cream in Plainville. I just wish it was in a better location. As I was sitting there eating my ice cream, the place did start to fill up with guests I don't like the plaza location that it sits in, it seems a little too industrial and not welcoming. I didn't like that the place looked closed. Maybe a lighted open sign would work better. I didn't like the perceived snap from the manager, when I said, the place looked closed when I walked in the place. He was argumentative to a point. I loved the ice cream. Homemade and on point, some of the best in central Connecticut. I love the way the inside was decorated, and the easy to read wall menu I'll come back. Hopefully I can see a nice flashing or illuminated "open" sign in the window. I think that would benefit the business a lot.

    Add 'Get a scoop at Kilwin's" to your Summer Bucket List!…read more Food: Absolutely decadent! I got a scoop of Two Berry Pie ("Vanilla-flavored ice cream, strawberry, blueberry & sugared pie crust") in a cup and the little got Lemon Sorbetto! Both were rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. Kilwin's offers a sample so you can actually taste before you decide, which is a major win. It was a tough decision, but I will be back for the Cake Batter. The cones are made fresh in-house and smell divine. Beyond ice cream, there's a whole lineup of treats dipped in chocolate: pretzels, Oreos, marshmallows, you name it. Sweet tooth? Handled. Diet? Not. Service: Everyone was super friendly and patient, even with a line. You can tell they actually enjoy working there, which makes the whole experience feel even sweeter. Atmosphere: It's more of a grab-and-go setup, like just a candy store that sells ice cream not an ice cream shop, so there's no indoor seating but right outside there are plenty of benches in downtown West Hartford. The area is busy, walkable, and perfect for a side of people-watching. The quality is top-tier, the flavors are spot-on, and everything feels like a treat because it is. Worth every penny. 10/10 recommend for locals and visitors too.
