    Located in Fairhaven. Tried their $9.99 flight sample. Since their ice cream has no air in it, making it very stretchy and fluffy. The texture is unique, kind of like melting yet slight watery, not something I expected. Their service is friendly. They also offer good espresso and other sweet treats.

    Great little stop for a quick bite in downtown Fairhaven! It had a great central location and a good selection of ice cream as well as baked goods. Service was friendly and helpful, my savory biscuit was like an elevated version of a Red Lobster cheddar bay biscuit, AKA it was amazing! You should also bring your dog, to be added to the great dog wall inside!

    First time I've tried this place after living in Bellingham my whole life. It was delicious! I would definitely go back to try different flavors! I'm assuming it's due to COVID but their selection was very minimal. They had about 8 flavors of ice cream on a Sunday afternoon. And a couple items in the baked goods section. They also offer coffee which is always a plus! Hoping next time they have more flavors.

    Note that ACME Ice Cream Cafe IS OPEN during COVID for TAKEOUT. My family and I stopped by Fairhaven and decided to get ice cream on a warm summer day. We came to this same ice cream store five years ago and so it was nice to see that this ice cream store was still in business. We ordered a double scoop of Amaretto and Zabaglione (Italian Custard) to share. The ice cream scooper described the zabaglione as similar to eggnog and so we gave it a try because it's not something you normally find. The ice cream was rich, dense, and creamy. It was also very stretchy (other reviewers have compared it to a "cheese pull"). You have to twist your spoon as if you were eating spaghetti to eat it. The amaretto tasted more like almond than amaretto; it had slivered almonds and a mild almond flavor but lacked any alcoholic taste. The zabaglione was much better and tasted like custard pudding. The server was wearing a mask and social distancing measures were in place. Overall: 4/5 for ice cream, 4/5 for service, 5/5 for health and safety standards

    We will be back to try

    Iced carmel mocha was good and the pop tart was amazing. We will definitely come back to try the Ice cream tonight, looked so good. Service was friendly.

    After a long day of walking, we decided to try this place as we have seen pints sold in store before. One thing that suck was that they ran out of cones and ran out a lot of their flavors. Also, there scoops are tiny! A double scoop was probably a size of a single scoop in other places. We got the banana walnuts, the fudge brownie, the raspberry chip and the amaretto. Every flavor was bold and distinct which is nice. The only one I didn't like much was the armaretto but that is just my preference. Certain ice cream had different texture. We were able to do a 'cheese pull' on one of them haha while the one was standard.

    I was walking back to my car from buying some books at the bookstore when I read the sign that said "caramel apple float" and then walked right in. I've been to fairhaven many times but never have I been here. I also saw that they have house made pastries and treats so I ended up buying a savory roll as well. The only reason my review isn't a 5 star is there was some brush fibers in my roll (from the pastry brush, probably from the egg wash??? I'm not sure). Otherwise it was a pleasant experience over all and very delicious.

    Phenomenal Fairhaven ice cream! In this little adorable historic hamlet of Bellingham. Looking to yelp while visiting Fabulous Fairhaven I came across this donut & ice cream parlor. I was offered tastes and was blow away with the flavors, texture and quality of Acme Ice cream. I tried the Banana Walnut which was delicious and vanilla, the best vanilla ice cream I have ever had. My husband enjoyed the hot fudge sundae. Reasonably priced and well worth it. I wish they were in my hood.

    Seriously good ice cream in Fairhaven. Parking is available on the side streets as well as a lot about a block away. Inside has a 1950s theme. There's a shiny rocket above the front counter, hence the name. Staff were friendly. The donuts looked good but I didn't try. They give samples for the ice cream. The ice cream here is seriously creamy. Almost buttery. Special mention. They also allow for 2 half-scoops for the price of a single scoop, which is nice for trying 1 more flavour. Looks like Portland may have some competition.

    This ice cream touts its "taffy-like" consistency. Eeeeww! That's because they use "non GMO Dextrose". Give me cane sugar please!

    Another visit and the food was consistently good. We came during the lunch rush. The parking lot…read morewas full. The drive in area was full. And the inside was full. We ordered 2 burgers and a milkshake for takeout. They said the order would take roughly 15-20 minutes which it did. The burger was great. I love the freshness of the veggies and the pickle just does its job of adding that acidity. The banana milkshake was super. They made it using fresh bananas and it was a thick shake which I love. The bathroom is not my favorite. It does its purpose but there is a very strong urine smell and is quite small.

    This place is either a hit or a miss for me. I recently discovered their salads, and the first time…read moreI ordered one, I wanted to jump on Yelp and tell the world that Boomer's has an amazing salad. Unfortunately, every chicken taco salad I've ordered since then has been a disappointment. I love that you can customize exactly what you want to add--or leave off--your salad. At around $8, it's a great value. You get a ton of food, and it doesn't hurt that you can add extra romaine lettuce, tomatoes, and other toppings at no additional cost. However, I've come to realize that it all depends on who's preparing it. Bring back the person who made my first salad, because the last three have been so bad that I started to question whether I actually had a great taco salad at Boomer's in the first place. One salad was mostly romaine lettuce with very little of the other ingredients, even though I had requested extra of everything. They also forgot the tortilla strips and the salsa. Come on--it's not a taco salad without salsa! The other two salads I ordered barely had any chicken in them. If I didn't know better, I would have thought I had ordered a salad without chicken. Boomer's, do better and pay attention to the details. Consistency matters. This could have easily been a 4-star review if you had been consistent with the four taco salads I've ordered. The other photos in this review are from years ago when I thought burgers were the only thing worth ordering at Boomer's. Who knew they offered salads too?! Based on that first salad, I'm going to give you another chance, Boomer's. Here's hoping you can make my next salad as memorable as the first so I can give that 4 stars!!

    The best Thai food I have had in a long time! The flavors, textures and heat levels were perfect!…read moreThese chefs definitely know what they are doing! We had a nice variety including Satay Gai, Tum Tang, Nam Tok, Phad Thai and sticky rice. The menu on their website explains what each item is if you don't recognize what we ordered. We also tried their in house made hot sauce which was full of flavor and heat! The server was so wonderful and knowledgeable! And the ambiance is so lovely! I could write a novel to explain every amazing bite but you must just go experience it for yourself! And then write a review to let me know how much you enjoyed it!

    There were tons of options at Maikham. The server was super friendly and helpful and talked to us…read moreabout gluten free options. I ordered the Panang with Tofu. I am not sure if it is made with fish sauce, but it tasted a bit fishy to me. The dish wasn't super fresh, and hence the loss of 1 star. Also, I prefer a bit more liquid in my Panang. This seemed like a mix between a stir fry and other Panang dishes I have had. The server asked us how spicy we wanted our food from 1-5 and our dishes were made accordingly; which was nice. I also liked that our table of 4 was given 2 wine bottles of water, so we didn't need to wait for refills. The flavor and freshness wasn't quite where I would like it to be, for me. I react to high histamine foods so I usually eat pretty fresh foods, and this meal did cause a histamine rash. For most Thai food fans, this place is alright, just not knock-outta-the-park, write-home-about good.
