I have to specify that the boba were tapioca. They have a variety of boba toppings. They also have Desi ice cream! I think the ambience of the store improves if it's packed with customers.

After driving by many times, wife and I decided to check it out. Glad we did…read more Clean, kinda wild walls loaded with stickers, this is strictly an ice cream place. Lots of flavors, but not chocolate or strawberry or vanilla...if you wanted them. No, every offered flavor was special, mixed with nuts or chocolate or caramel of something. Took awhile to decide. The manager appeared to be Asian-Indian and that explained the special selection of fruit flavored ice creams offered. We will have to try those interesting ice creams. They simply vend ice cream, so at this point don't plan on a catered event. Please give them a try. Good ice creams.

I ordered a large vanilla concrete. No toppings required. The cup holds about 16oz and it tastes amazing. The service was pretty quick considering the line of people at the drive through. Ambiance... It's an old time custard shop. There were some families and teens waiting for their custard. It was perfect for my breakfast on a sunny 92* day.

She is always disinterested, often unfriendly, and sometimes...downright rude. I honestly don't know what her problem is, but it is a persistent one. Her attitude totally melts my ice cream. I'm to the point of just going somewhere else for ice cream because she can downright ruin the happy experience. Maybe she shouldn't be the one taking orders? It's too bad, but it's the truth. One can overlook bad service, but not a bad pattern Andy, can you hear me?? Edit: I tried sharing details with the OM mentioned here. Other than the initial template response, he never got back to me. Life is more important than leaving reviews or being salty about poor service, but, if your goal is to "resolve" bad experiences...mission not accomplished. Just letting you know. I since visited the Matthews location and it was awesome btw. Way different service experience.

It sits in Blakeney Town Center amongst all the other shops. There's plenty of parking and outdoor seating whether you want to sit in grassy area directly behind Jeni's or in front of Jeni's. The staple flavors are always available but this time I got the tropical bloom along with the brambleberry crisp on a waffle cone. The service here is always quick and efficient. The young man today was so sweet. Nothing really to the ambiance as they're all the same inside.

During our visit, we order the Coffee Lovers and decided to try two of the flavors Cinna Roll Bliss and the Coffee Mocha. The Coffee Loves was just as it normally is, AWESOME! The two new flavors were just okay and definitely wouldn't order again. The cinnamon flavor was over powering and the coffee mocha had sugar crystals that made this one too much as well. Overall, great experience and still enjoy cold stone for ice cream, just will pass on trying newer flavors.

Mrs. K. knows her chocolate frozen custard, and her rankings are not handed out lightly. Over the…read moreyears, she has sampled the best from Andy's, Culver's, and a few local spots, but Rita's consistently takes the top spot. It is not just nostalgia or loyalty. She genuinely appreciates the texture, flavor, and richness that Rita's delivers. We have looked for contenders, but nothing has quite matched the smooth intensity of Rita's chocolate custard. Today's visit was another reminder of why Rita's holds that crown. No toppings, no mix-ins, no distractions. Just a clean, classic serving of chocolate custard to go. The staff was friendly, and the portion was generous without being over the top. Back in the car, Mrs. K. allowed me one spoonful, and I savored it like a rare treat. It was velvety, dark, and satisfying, with just the right balance of sweetness and depth. There is something comforting about a place that gets the basics right. Rita's does not need gimmicks to impress. It simply shows up with excellent custard, time after time. Whether you are a die-hard fan like Mrs. K. or just looking for a good dessert, it is worth the stop. [Review 1191 of 2025 - 4377 in North Carolina - 24743 overall]
