I loved the ice cream because it was thick and creamy. It is inbetween hard and soft ice cream leaning towards hard. The chocolate is sweet. No significant complaints, and I would return for the same flavor or a new one.

During a visit to the Newport Mall, I decided to treat the family to Haagen Dazs, and boy did it…read morefall short of expectations. But, let's start with the good: This ice cream shop is a bit hard to find - it's on the second floor right above the Cheesecake Factory (you're welcome). It's a very small shop, with a handful of small tables to eat at. They do have a fairly large variety of ice cream flavors, which you can choose from on the sign in the wall. They offer scoops, shakes, and drinks blended with ice cream. The staff is pretty nice and accommodating - they showed love with extra napkins. The Dazzler (basically a big plastic cup of ice cream with different toppings mixed inside) was pretty good and a good size, like a grande coffee, for the price. Now to the not so great part of the experience. My group ordered ice cream scoops and a shake. I went all in for the $10 option with 3 scoops. And what I got looked like one big half melted scoop in a cup. It was a sad sight to see - I posted the picture with this review for reference. Yes, the ice cream tastes good. But, it's the exactly same that you get from the containers at the store. Since 3 scoops at this shop is equivalent to almost half a pint, you can barely share it. S So, scoops are like sample sizes and just a waste of money when you can buy two pints at the market for the same price. This is the first time I've ever been to an ice cream shop that skimped on the serving sizes like this. So, I'll be taking my ice cream money elsewhere, like Torico where they are more generous.

That's surely not a bad thing; after all, who doesn't love loads of sugar and cinnamon with a sweet frosting on top! I however, opted not to get there signature bun and just went with a drink.

Definitely worth a visit, but just make sure it's on a day you're not counting calories!

Wonder Bagels on Sip Ave is the real deal. I've also been to their Downtown location, and…read morehonestly--it tastes exactly the same (which is a good thing!). We live in Jersey, we know bagels, and Wonder Bagels does it right. Real, authentic, hand-rolled bagels, just like how they used to make them back in the day. My go-to is an everything bagel toasted with plain (vegan) tofu cream cheese. It's $5 and consistently delicious. Sorry this isn't some over-the-top review, but it's to the point: it's a bagel shop making 5-star bagels. Yum! My Saturday morning is complete. Tip: As always with bagel spots, check the hours! I know some of us are late risers on the weekend, and you don't wanna be caught slipping.

While the space itself is a bit small and more for takeout, it does have a variety of different cookies from sea salt chocolate chip to snickerdoodles to smores, given the huge size of the cookies I opted to order the mini cookies instead, specifically the peanut butter and the chocolate chip.

Service at this location is spotty and slow. But honestly it's to be expected nowadays. The first trip I got custard swirl with jimmys, keeping it basic. Second trip I went for a gelati with black cherry and vanilla custard (pictured). Both great options and my go-tos. This location is off the side of the road with limited bench seating. It's great for a grab and go.

Even for a regular plain vanilla custard, they won't serve you because "they just cleaned the ice cream machine down for the night". Great, they're doing what theyre suppose to but 10 min before closing? Should be after business hours. You would think that right before the holiday weekend when summer is ending they would want the business. Establishments I believe are supposed to close at exactly the time stated which is 10 PM and then you start to clean up but anywhere between 10 to 15 minutes before closing time is unprofessional.

The young lady not only let me sample three different flavors but she really gave us two HUGE scoops of ice cream. I did finish it but it was enough ice cream to share easily. So, moral of the story is to probably stick to visiting inside if you want ice cream and stick to Dunkin' Donuts orders via the drive thru.
