    Yum. This is Cold Stone Creamery's newest location. It's store #23519 and it opened February 2019. You can find it in the new North Decatur Square shopping plaza at the corner of North Decatur Road and Church Street. The plaza is anchored by a Whole Foods 365. Everything in this plaza is relatively new. There are over 1,100 Cold Stone locations worldwide, but only 7 in metro Atlanta (at the time of writing this review). I used to go to the one in Atlantic Station, where I live, but it closed years ago. I'm not sure I've been to a Cold Stone since. Visiting this location in Decatur brought back some memories. I had to get what I ordered most often at the Atlantic Station location: the Birthday Cake Remix. It consists of cake batter ice cream, rainbow sprinkles, brownie, and fudge. I got it in Cold Stone's smallest size ("Like It") for $4.99 plus tax. Only 670 calories. It was just as delicious as I remembered it. The cake batter ice cream was smooth and creamy and I really enjoyed the chewy chunks of rich, chocolaty brownie and the texture of the colorful rainbow sprinkles. I recommend it. What makes Cold Stone, which was founded in 1988, different from other ice cream shops is they have a cold stone slab (frozen granite) which the servers use to mix the ice cream with various toppings and mix-ins. Marble Slab Creamery was the first to popularize this concept (1986), but Cold Stone has since surpassed them (by far) in terms of locations. Birthday Cake Remix is one of several Cold Stone Signature Creations ($4.99 small, $5.49 regular, $5.99 large). You can also customize your own ice cream and mix-ins ($3.99 small, $4.59 regular, $4.99 large + 1 free mix-in and $0.89 each for additional mix-ins) with optional waffle cones and bowls ($0.99-1.49 each). When we visited, there were about 20 ice cream flavors to choose from. Some of the flavors are made fresh in-store. There were a bevy of point-and-choose mix-ins and toppings such as candy bars, nuts, cookies, and candy. In addition to ice cream, Cold Stone offers frappes, shakes, smoothies, cakes (including custom cakes), and "Hot Stone" desserts (hot and cold desserts) like Brownie a la Cold Stone, made with a warm chocolate brownie, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, caramel, fudge, and pecans ($6.99). Service was good. We visited on a Saturday night after dinner and the place was busy, but not slammed. The crowd was a mix of both adults and kids. Seating (inside only) is limited. There are only about 10 seats total. This is a good after-dinner date spot.

    The young ladies at this location are trash. A bunch of young people who hate what they do. My boyfriend wanted to put a spin on the founders favorite and they gave him a hard time. I have been eating cold stone for over two decades and cannot remember a time service for such a quick and easy item was this bad. I love cold stone and haven't had it since pre-pandemic and the ice cream was delicious of course smooth and creamy per usual, which is what the stars are for, the service is a zero. Mind you, I'm not expecting Capital Grille service or any service really, just be nice.

    As I walked into the ice cream shop, I smelled the sweet aroma of ice cream. Their ice cream is amazing. There are a variety of flavors. There is ice cream, waffle cones, sundaes, cakes, shakes, and drinks. There are many toppings. The customer service is amazing, friendly, helpful and fast. A very cool ambiance and clean place. They have a great attitude and they always greet you. I love this ice cream shop. Cold stone is where dreams of ice cream being perfect come true. With there amazing signature items you really can't go wrong. I recommend the mix of Butter Pecan and Blueberry with Graham Crackers as the topping perfection. I didn't know the first topping was free so that's a plus. Reasonable and affordable prices. Cold Stone Creamery is an Ice cream chain offering design-your-own creations hand-mixed on a granite slab, plus shakes and more. If this location had some benches and tables located just outside, that would have made this place the perfect ice cream date/desert spot for anyone to hang out with friends/family. I guess they might do it once it gets more hotter later the time. As this place is in a shopping plaza, there is ample free parking in front of the shop. I recommend this place for great tasting, original ice cream anytime and also I recommend for everyone to come here.

    I love Cold Stone. I love the fact that one is so close to my house now. They recently opened and are nice for a quick fix of ice cream. My mom and I came here for some girls time. The icecream was creamy, fresh, and had the right amount of mixers. I had the founders favorite, which is MY favorite!! I can't wait to come back. The service was also very good!!

    Circus Animal Cookie Creation. Very good!

    I came to Cold Stone on a Sunday at 12 which is when they first open. It had been awhile since I'd last gone to a Cold Stone and the store smelled amazing - like ice cream and freshly made waffle cones. The store is modest in size but its neat, clean, and well lit. Service was polite and prompt. I had a "Love it" (medium) size of the Circus Animal Cookie Creation ($6) and it was really good. I also tried their Golden Oreo Cookie Ice Cream Creation and it was delicious. It's in a plaza with Whole Foods 365, Big Peach Running Co, and some other fast casual restaurants like Gusto and Curry Up Now. Parking is in a shared moderate sized lot so you'll be able to find something. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

    All of this franchise's locations are nice in that their quality is superb. And they're usually pretty generous with the portions!

    Not good at ALL

    I gave a one star because my birthday cake from here wasn't good at ALL. It was so tiny and tasted old. It was $30 and I would have been okay with that high price IF the cake was good BUT it was horrible. I LOvE their ice cream that's why I thought I couldn't go wrong with the cake but never again will I get a cake from here.

    Finally it's open!!! Make your way over to the newly open Cold Stone Creamery located on Church St adjacent from Emory Healthcare formerly known as Dekalb Medical. Cold stone supplies hardy portions in sizes that range from: like it (small), love it (medium), and gotta have it (large). Visitors have the option of choosing a specialty ice cream combination or create your own with the numerous flavors and toppings they have available! I elected to order the "Birthday Cake Remix" which came with cake batter ice cream, fresh crushed brownie, hot fudge, and rainbow sprinkles! Your order is made right in front of you on cold marble slab so that every order can be customized! As this business just opened, there's always going to be hiccups. The customer service was slightly lacking this evening... but I'll definitely be back for more!

    Hair was in the ice cream.

    --Location/Parking-- Located in the heart of Decatur…read more Parking is only street of paid parking in a lot. --Ambience-- Small cafe vibe and cross between a hippy coffee shop. Great place to hang out and chill for a bit. --Service/Staff-- The staff was awesome, shoutout to the owner, but they were on top of their game in getting you in and out quickly. --Products/Service-- This is cereal heaven where you can get any type of cereal you want and put in your own toppings. --Capacity-- Indoor capacity can hold 40 people snuggled together. --Overall-- This is your place if you love cereal and this is the new dessert go to.

From the moment we walked in, the variety of cereals on display was enough to make any cereal lover swoon. Pro tip: if you see it on the shelf, they've got it -- don't limit yourself to what's behind the counter. My fiancée found a Groupon (wallet win!), but honestly, I'd pay full price without hesitation -- it was that good. After sampling a few ice cream options, I went with the Oatmilk Cream Pie, which turns out is a staff favorite -- and I totally get why. For my cereal mix-in, I chose the Cookies and Cream Frosted Flakes (yes, you read that right ). We noticed they were running a little low on toppings -- we came later in the day -- but thankfully they weren't out of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. I topped mine with a drizzle of peanut butter, which threw me off at first because it was black in color (I thought it was chocolate!), but nope, it was peanut butter and it was delicious. We got our creations in handmade waffle cups, which added an extra layer of yum. It wasn't super busy, but our order still took a little while -- not a dealbreaker though, especially since it gave us time to snap a few photos. Parking nearby was only $3, so no complaints there. Can't wait to return and experiment with more combos! The Cereal Lab is a sweet spot I'll be recommending to everyone.

While my dietary restrictions didn't allow me to partake, the girls and bestie enjoyed their treats. They just had ice cream and cones. We agreed that we'd have to come back a different time to try the donut/ice cream sandwich! There is a parking garage next to this storefront that is partially public parking and partially residential. The public parking is three dollars for 30 minutes. You have to pay it on your cell phone, and they charge a $1.20 service fee. So 30 minutes of parking is actually $4.20. This was just enough time for us to go inside order sit to eat and get back to the car with five minutes to spare. Luckily, we went in during a slow period, because we were able to order right away. Also, there is only bar top seating with four barstools, so it was the perfect amount of seats for those in my group who were eating. Most people who came behind us did a grab and go.

When I walked up, all of the chairs were up so it looked closed, but I peaked in, and they confirmed they were still open. I was greeted with a smile and asked to taste the vegan flavors which were lemon, mango, and berry açai. I'm happy they had multiple vegan options and we're willing to let me try them. I ended up going with the Bory since it was made with oat milk and had oats and berries in it. The lemon and mango were more like sorbets. I gave it a four stars because it was a little bit more expensive than anticipated and they charged a dollar extra for the vegan options. Not sure why vegan options are more expensive, especially if they are similar in size as the non-vegan options.

I want a bit of crunch or flavor in every bite and Brusters does not hold back with the toppings. 2) Fun flavors: Lots of unique flavors! Here is what I got: A.

I said that I would never go here again and this is my first time and almost 6 years. Everything was good. I like the service. I like the way you can pay contact Leslie. The ice cream itself is pretty good. It's kind of hard to mess up ice cream, but the one gripe I have and have always had is. when you order cookies and cream with Oreos. They don't use fresh Oreos ‍... It's kind of disappointed because you look for that crunch when you bite into your ice cream. It doesn't taste bad, but it kind of taste and feels just like the ice cream you can buy in the store with the "made with real Oreos" logo on it. it never taste like Oreos lol it Taste like chocolate cookie or Oreo Ish. lol Again, it's not bad, but it could definitely be better. If they went back to use fresh whole Oreo pieces crunching them up. I will say, at least this time they actually had a decent amount of cookie in it. The time they may be square off of Bruster's six years ago, one of the young servers of their decided to give me vanilla ice cream and stick two Oreos in it... I asked him what happened to crunching it up and what happened to Moore Oreos he said this is just how they do it... I remember calling management about that they apologize but I haven't been back since but if this was what they decided to do to counteract that problem, I'm not sure what else to say lol The moral of the story is use fresh ingredients people like the crunch of the Oreo and their ice cream. Or do a happy medium have the already mixed in Oreo and then include some fresh crunchy pieces for those who love that I feel like that might be the only topping that they have that's not fresh. This might be the only already mixed in topping. I feel like the M&Ms they add to the top. Why can't they do that to Oreos? ‍
