    We were about to hit up downtown to go check out some bars, but first we were in need of an ice cream fix. This was our first time in the area so we didn't know where anything was, but of course we pulled out our handy dandy Yelp app to find us a spot. Dairy King is your typical, small little ice cream stand, that has some pretty good ice cream. We got two different cups for about 4 bucks total. They have tons of flavors to choose from, along with Sundaes and other cool treats. The saddest thing about this business though is that it is in a sketcchhyyy area. I hardly even felt comfortable getting out of the car to go order. It seems to be a very run down side of town, and there were a couple people who walked right past us who seemed to be drugged out of their mind. To make matters worse, right after we got our ice cream I spotted a gigantic RAT running right by the place, nibbling at garbage on the ground. I can't really blame the business, but I was pretty disgusted by that. Maybe Dairy King is more for locals or people who know the area better, but I would prefer to try somewhere else the next time I am in Providence.

    If for some reason you wake up in the west end, make sure to get a pistachio shake from dairy king. Also the lemonade, yum!

    First time visiting and we were greeted warmly right away. We checked out the menu on an iPad,…read morewhich was really convenient, and they also had a cute handwritten menu. After placing our order, an employee asked what other dessert we might have chosen. My partner said mint chocolate chip, and the employee surprised us with two mini mint chocolate chip sandwiches on the house. We took our treats to a nearby park. They were very cold (in a good way), and we were advised to wait a few minutes before eating them, which was perfect since it was such a hot day. We didn't talk at all while eating our ice cream sandwiches , they were that good. It's also great to know they offer catering. A must try spot. The banana pudding sandwich was my favorite - I couldn't believe how good it was.

    Simple in design, but rich in flavor and creativity. Their menu is comprised of pre-made ice cream…read morecones, tacos, push pops, and sandwiches ranging between $4-$8. The menu is drawn onto a chalkboard and does list all the flavors and toppings in each one. I chose the red velvet ice cream sandwich this time which had red velvet ice cream swirled with cream cheese frosting stuffed between two chocolate cookies and partially dipped in white chocolate coated with cookie crumbs. They do tell you to wait about 10 minutes before eating it since they are really frozen, so in that time, my friend and I drove to the pedestrian bridge to eat our ice cream by the river. I wish the cookie could be soft, since it does make biting into a little tricky in the beginning. They had a slightly dark chocolate flavor with a hint of saltiness. The ice cream was really good, but the frosting made it even better. I thought it was the white chocolate dip that was added the additional creamy and sweet goodness but it was the frosting the whole time. I enjoyed everything about this flavor. My friend got the chocolate taco. I am personally not a fan of chocolate ice cream, but it was still decent to me. The toppings of shaved coconut and nuts was tasty.

    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.

    It is hard to get ice cream wrong, but three sisters does it so well!…read moreThey have an extensive board of flavors (my favorite is the community kulfi!) Having a job that has me outside most of the day it is really nice to have a friendly space to stop in and cool off. There are no steps to get in, the menu board is large and readable, and they offer things like individual ice creams, smoothies, and milkshakes as well as larger tubs of their homemade ice cream, ice cream cakes, gift cards, and do in store pickup for online orders as well ​as delivery through doordash.

They even have pup cups now! I went tonight with some friends. A little bummed because you can only try one flavor before ordering now. I was between two vegan options and try the coffee Oreo. It tasted like banana to me and they informed me it is a banana and coconut base. I don't think the sign said banana so just be warned if you have an allergy. But I think the banana also helps keep it really creamy! I couldn't really taste the coffee so I ordered the other vegan option which is black raspberry Oreo! I asked them to clean the scoop before scooping mine for an allergy and they did and really did a fantastic job cleaning it, as I did not get sick (yay!) buuuuut they did give me the coffee vegan ice cream instead of what I ordered. Not the end of the world because it was still non dairy which is most important but wasn't what I wanted. I think she just forgot after she cleaned the scooper what I asked for.

    Such cheap attitude or may be a cheap scheme they play on people. Be careful when using creditcard…read morewith these guys. I got ice cream roll there. I used credit card, added in the tip and finished the transaction and was waiting for my ice-cream. They called me and said there was some problem with the machine and the transaction may not have gone through. I paid in cash and tipped in cash as well. They took my number and said if the transaction went through they will cancel, call me let me know. They called me that evening and told me the transaction went through and they cancelled the charges. I check my credit card transactions. Guess what... they only cancelled the ice-cream price. Not the tip. Its like i double tipped them. See the attached photo for proof of their cheap scheme

    Freezing Point is a once-a-year kinda treat. It is ice cream rolls with toppings of your choosing…read more Starting at $7, you can choose one of their combinations of ingredients or you can create your own. I enjoy chocolate and strawberry together so I chose their "strawberry love" combination. It includes chocolate ice cream rolls, fresh strawberries, a giant graham cracker and toasted marshmallow on top. It was COLD! Be careful of a brain freeze but enjoy. The experience of watching the ice cream rollers do their thang is entertaining. I'd like to call Freezing Point "ice cream and a show". I'm sure kids would get a kick out of how this Thai dessert is made. It is definitely an experience you should try at least once!
