Pure Joy Ice Cream was so necessary on a hot July day…read more This simple, small shop was located across from Basin Spring Park in Eureka Springs, AR. Metered street and lot parking were within a brisk albeit slight uphill walk for us on 7.23.2025. Because our dog was not allowed inside, I trusted my two pre-teens to order with cash. My daughters said the employee was very nice... and fast too! The flavors were just like the name - Pure Joy! They offer items such as Rosemary Peach Ice Cream, Pawpaw Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, Pawpaw Lime Sorbet, Sumac Lemonade, Ozark Eggnog, and Ripe Persimmon Sorbet. My daughters settled for Strawberry Lavender Sorbet and I think Blueberry Buttermilk Ice Cream. I remembered it being a little on the pricey side, then after viewing their Insta page I realized it's probably because the owners travel to Mexico to pick some of their own ingredients. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 5 | Price: 4

Great location! Great design!…read moreBut the best part??? Some of THE MOST UNIQUE ice cream flavors you will ever try! Oh wait, have you have rosemary ice cream with a peach compote swirl? Maybe... a made-from-scratch bourbon caramel mixed into a dark stout ice cream? Orrrrr - a berried lemonade sorbet made black by activated charcoal??? Then you haven't lived!! (J/k... but seriously... you should try it!!) This is Pure Joy's 2nd location. They're still working on the inside as of Oct 2025, so more updates to be enjoyed! But the ICE CREAM?? That's here to stay! And if you'd like to hear a very fun story, ask how they source their vanilla pods from a farm in Mexico, and NOT from a woman named Esperanza!!! lol - seriously. Just ask the owner. He's fabulous - even when we rolled in with a party of seven at 9:55pm, 5 minutes before closing!

So ignore the only other review on here that's a 1 Star. General rule when rating a place is…read moreusually one star for service, one for prices, one for food quality, one for the how clean and nice the place is, and a 5th Star if you feel like the place is just overall great. One stars are for if the place fails at almost everything, or if the service is so rude and bad that you can't enjoy the place at all. Giving a place 1 star because they don't have your kind of ice cream is ridiculous. Ok rant over. As for this place. It's got a good selection of ice cream. I think it was about 12 flavors or so. I don't really expect every flavor on the planet in a small town or it wouldn't last. Unless you're super picky, It's got something for everyone. The service is super friendly, and prices are very fair. Multiple cone options / cup sizes. They sell banana splits, shakes, Italian sodas, root beer floats, all sorts of candies, taffy and more. The place is super clean and very very nicely decorated. Maybe more on the girly side, but I'm sure if you brought young boys to eat ice cream, they are not complaining the place had more of a girls room feel. Seems like a great place for a group of kids to go with parents at any time. Lots of little things to touch and get their hands on, so maybe not so great if you have a grabby kid under the age of 3 unless you want candy all over the store. . They do have crayons at each table though to help keep kids occupied. Overall nothing I could really complain about. When my kids good at school all week, it's a great place to reward her with.
