Caleb the best

The ice cream tasted great and our server Caleb was amazing the music was nice and I liked the seating

Update: I went back today 5/29, got 3 wieners all the way & a steak bomb. The steak bomb was good, hot & ready to eat. The 3 wieners weren't great, cold and loaded with onion.. meat sauce was good but I don't think that matters when you have a mouthful of onion. Pretty disappointed with the wieners, Olneyville N.Y. System is the king

3.75 for this what a joke.

I was a little skeptical but those were solid weiners and awesome onion rings. Friendly service. I'll go back.

If you're looking for a new ice cream spot in Providence, you NEED to check out Tricycle Ice Cream!…read moreThe flavors are so good, the ice cream is super creamy, and there are so many fun options to choose from. I love finding local spots like this, especially when the customer service is very friendly and helpful, I didn't feel rush ordering as a first timer! It's in Providence there's no seating but the cream needs to defrost for 8 minutes so that gives you time to get to your location and the icecream is still perfect!!!

Rating: 4.5 Came to…read moretry this ice cream place i've been meaning to try after getting dinner at there there as I've noticed it's right next to it. It's a small local ice-cream shop with variety of unique ice cream options. Inside is small and there are not really seatings to expect to take them outside or bring it home. They have a big blackboard at the top that shows their menu and also has ipad that has menus as well. They offer ice-cream sandwiches, ice cream tacos, push pops, and cones. I got their almond coconut chocolate ice cream taco. It was very chocolaty with hint of almonds and coconut flavor. The crunchy shell with chocolate was tasty. A bit heavy and rich but to be expected. Service is quick as they seem to have all the ice-cream already prepped in the freezer. Overall, the place was good. Another unique Ice cream shop in the area which is always welcome. Would like to coke back yo try their other type of ice-creams.

This is my go to ice cream spot after discovering it this summer, I'll never go anywhere else. The…read moremenu is extensive and has a flavor for every palate. Recently took my friend here and she loved it. She had the blueberry cheesecake. Every flavor I've had here is amazing: highly recommend the southern peach, strawberry cheesecake, cherry amaretto and coconut brownie cheesecake. They have a small inside area to sit and there's 2 picnic tables outside as well. The parking lot is small but many park on the side parking lot which Prbly doesn't belong to the ice cream shop lol or along the sidewalk.

I've been to the Johnston Sundaes location several times so I'll start with the positives: There…read moreare lots of choices on the menu and the portion size is good. However, the customer service during our most recent visit, which was our first visit of the season, was surprisingly rude, which leaves me wondering if something at Sundaes has changed, hence the two star review. We brought a group of 12 here on Friday night, 5/15/26 at about 7:15 and the employee who took our orders was polite and wrote everything down. We paid for our order all together. It wasn;t very busy when we arrived, but it took quite a while, nearly 10 minutes, for us to receive the first of the 12 ice creams, and then the rest of the order came out little by little. By the time we left, there was a line of about a dozen people. When my ice cream was ready, it didn't have the sprinkles I had ordered. I asked if sprinkles could be put on, and rather than simply adding sprinkles, the employee (manager?), went and checked the paper order, stated that sprinkles weren't written down and that she would have to charge me for the sprinkles. I asked about it again, citing our order was large ($88), and couldn't they just put the sprinkles on that they forgot to include. She replied repeatedly stating that doing that would be against company policy. Hmmmm....... Really? If that's the case, Sundae's policy is pretty poor. This exchange of words left me with a very bad feeling, but as I was with a large group including several kids, I didn't press it any further. Why in the world would a company refuse something that costs pennies to the business, instead making the customer go through the trouble of cashing out again, especially when it was the business' mistake? More ice creams from our order continued to come out at a very slow pace. One ice cream was made with the wrong flavors, and one was forgotten and by the time we received it, most of the other people in our party had already finished eating. At some point as we waited for our ice creams the "manager" called out to me to ask if I wanted rainbow or chocolate sprinkles (I guess the company policy had changed?), but at that point it was too late, she had already set the tone. While the ice cream at Sundaes is fine, I would strongly suggest that the owner of this business provide training to their staff on customer service, and how refusing to honor a request for forgotten sprinkles without incurring a new charge can lose a customer (or in our case a large group of customers) for a long time. Also, the wait time needs to be speeded up. Maybe more staff is needed? With so many other ice cream places within a short drive of Sundae's. I doubt that we'll be back given our most recent experience here. Moose Trackers in Scituate, Gigi's Scoops in Smithfield, or The Parlor Creamery in Cranston are all great places and will get our business the next time our group goes out for ice cream.

They have micro, small, medium, and large options which I found to be reasonably priced. When I first tried it, I was worried there were nuts in it so I went back to ask. They weren't sure at first, but Cierra, one of the employees, found an allergen sheet that outlined which flavors had which allergens. Coast was clear! They have some indoor and outdoor seating options if you want to stay and eat, but the nearby park is also a nice area to walk around in.

Three Sisters has become one of our favorite places to grab ice cream on the East Side. It's a…read moregreat little shop on Hope Street, and if you're already spending time in the neighborhood, it's an easy place to recommend. The hardest part of visiting is deciding what to order. They have a huge selection of flavors, and every time we go in I end up standing there longer than I planned because there are so many tempting choices. It's the kind of problem every ice cream shop should have. The ice cream itself is outstanding. It's fresh, creamy, and packed with flavor without feeling overly heavy. Every flavor we've tried has been excellent, and it's easy to see why this place has developed such a loyal following. In my opinion, it's the best ice cream on the East Side. Just be prepared to wait if you're stopping by on a nice evening. The shop is fairly small inside, and it's not uncommon for the line to stretch right out the front door. Thankfully, the staff keeps things moving, and the wait has always been worth it. The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality of the ice cream and the generous portions. Parking can be a little hit or miss since it's mostly street parking, although there are a handful of spaces behind the building. Somehow we've been lucky the last few visits and managed to grab a spot right out front, even when there was a long line. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is because the small space and limited parking can make visiting during peak hours a little less convenient. Once you have your ice cream, though, it's hard to complain. If you're looking for fantastic homemade ice cream in Providence, Three Sisters absolutely deserves a visit. Just bring a little patience if you're going on a warm summer evening.

First of all, their ice cream has a salty taste, which I've honestly never experienced before. Even…read morethe Hawaiian Vanilla Bean flavor tasted salty. That part comes down to personal preference... I can tolerate a taste I don't love. What I can't tolerate is bad service. The employee working on 5/25/26 was extremely rude and had no customer service skills. She acted annoyed whenever someone asked for samples and made customers feel like they were wasting her time. She handed over cups of ice cream without spoons or any explanation of where to find them. After running the register, she simply turned around and walked away before the payment even finished processing. Like I said, taste is subjective. How bad can ice cream really be, right? But poor service is something I don't overlook. I won't be returning to this place. In my opinion, 3 Sisters and Sacred Cow offer a much better overall experience.

It was raining, I wanted dessert, but I wanted something new to me. I randomly found this place…read morewhen doing a google search and based on their nearly perfect reviews, decided I had to give it a shot; I had a BIG FEELING I'd love it. It is located next to a school so traffic can be heavy depending on the time of day. I went around 5 pm and the weather wasn't great so not as much traffic and parking right in front. It is metered parking which is a downside but I believe there are side streets without the fee. I loved a lot of the details when I walked in such as the ice cream cone chairs along the wall, the art on the wall, the citrus colors all around, and a water station. The menu isn't very extensive, but | actually love this about them. Each flavor is very unique and when every flavor sounds and tastes good, a dozen options is perfectly fine. They also have it broken up into regular hard ice cream, dairy free ice cream, and sorbet. I couldn't decide on what I wanted but I was allowed to sample different ones before committing to one. They offer 4 different sizes: mini (golf ball scoop) - $4, scoop (baseball) -$6, half/half - $7, and double -$8. During my sampling session, I tried the horchata, thai tea, and dulce de leche. I ultimately opted for the dulce de leche because of its sweet, creamy, and intense caramel-like flavor. It almost tasted like a cold Werther's caramel melting in my mouth, so I needed more of it. However, I loved that the horchata had a strong cinnamon and vanilla presence with a hint of coconut since I do think the non-diary flavors are coconut milk based. The thai tea literally tasted like a frozen thai tea as it was milky but also the black tea undertone was there. I did not get to taste the london fog but I also heard it was a black tea flavor. Just based on internet pictures, it looks like the menu is constantly changing (some staple flavors don't seem to leave) and there are seasonal flavors. This motivates me to come back more often to see what treasures I come across. They had a few tables inside to enjoy your ice cream there. There were two people working so I did not wait much for my turn. They also do offer pints to go, but from what I could see only two flavors: cookies and cream and mango sticky rice.

This really sets them apart and brings them above other ice cream places in the area. I visited last night as part of a party of three, and although there was a line, it moved quickly and efficiently. We were waited on by a very polite staff member who took our order and we had our ice cream nearly immediately - almost no wait at all! The quantity served here is great - we all ordered smalls, and they were plenty big enough for us. Loved that I could get two different flavors in a small - Canoli and Cookie Dough were both delicious! Trackers also sells candy, fudge, and their own merchandise in their very cute country store setting. They have indoor as well as outdoor seating, and the atmosphere is great for all ages. They also have a selection of ice cream cakes for special occasions. Pricing is just what you would expect. Parking is plentiful. Can't wait to go back again and again this summer!

There was a decent candy selection and plenty of spots to sit inside and outside. There are numerous flavors and I decided on the caramel and chocolate pieces in a dish. I ordered a small and my partner ordered a kiddie. The price came out to almost $10 even- pretty standard since the portion was generous. However, I liked my ice cream but wasn't wowed by it. I prefer my ice cream to be soft and silky while this particular flavor felt icy and more gritty than I'm used to. I'm giving this place four stars as I'd like to try some other flavors in the future.

Not only that, the cost/value is the best I've seen. Maybe I should do more investigative work as to where their ice cream comes from, but I really enjoyed it. Location is not ideal, but the parking was easy. The night we visited was chilly enough that my friend and I ate the ice cream inside my car, but on a sunny warm day, that outdoor seating is great. They had a small but reasonable amount of flavors...not so many that it was overwhelming, but enough that I couldn't decide on just one. The person scooping our ice cream was really sweet, and I wasn't sure if she could offer samples (since it's through a window and not at a counter), but she did. I tried the rum raisin and the black raspberry. I'm super picky about my black raspberry, and this is the first one I've really enjoyed outside of the Lincoln Creamery. She was able to split a small into two scoops, so I got one scoop of rum raisin and black raspberry, and I loved it. My friend got the campfire s'mores flavor. It was SO sweet. I could see a younger palate going nuts for it, but I was happy with my pick! I would definitely come back.

There is a large area of benches and tables for sitting. The flavors are listed on a board and are easy to read. The only signage of ice cream is within the shop hidden on a back wall. Country Side Creamery uses Bliss ice cream, which I'll be honest, is not my favorite. The service was okay. The girl scooper did not look pleased to be working on a Friday night. I chose Campfire S'mores and the boyfriend chose Brownie Batter. The ice cream was okay.
