I have been wanting to try Southie Cookie for awhile and finally got the opportunity! We ordered…read morefrom one of our fave pizza places - Union Park Pizza - and they had two options on their menu! They had the classic chocolate chip and a "flavor of the month" - spiced apple pie. We got one of the spiced apple pies to share and I wish we had gotten two. We warmed the cookie for 15 seconds in the microwave and it was perfect. Soft in the center but a little crisp in some places. The flavor was on point, tasted like a piece of apple pie inside a cookie. Was one of the best I've ever had! We will definitely be trying more flavors. They ship via USPS priority mail so would make excellent gifts for our family. We cannot wait to share the cookie love. Highly recommend!

After gathering multiple quotes from several bakeries, Janelle was able to accommodate the most in the shortest amount of time for the best price (I believe I ordered one week ahead of time). Communication was clear over email about what I envisioned and she offered great suggestions. She delivered the cake well packaged on the day of the party and everyone was thrilled at the surprise cake! Oh and it tasted MARVELOUS!

This review only covers their liquid nitrogen watermelon sorbet @ Sowa market…read more SO COOL. Literally and figuratively. Who would've thought you could see liquid nitrogen dessert @ a low key food truck market like Sowa? I didn't. Anything involving food + liquid nitrogen is usually a thing of upscale establishments. My friend and I were so ecstatic to see such a sight and offering for only $6. No preservatives added. Just straight up scoops from a watermelon and a couple dribbles of simple sugar syrup (water and cane sugar). Blend that. Then in goes the liquid nitrogen from a hole in the blender. We all watch with childhood excitement at the white puffs of smoke flowing out. It's a rumbling watermelon volcano in the making and great visually and tactilely for people of all ages. Refreshingly cold with the flavoring of watermelon purely intact, by far the coolest and healthiest dessert I've had :)

Stumbled upon the Sowa Market on a Sunday afternoon filled with food trucks and vendors. I already…read moreknew this was the truck to look for thanks to a review I read on Yelp. The watermelon sorbet is $6 (cash, credit card accepted). They also serve pizza there if anyone's interested. The watermelon sorbet is freshly scooped out of a half-watermelon, added sugar syrup, and liquid nitrogen. The magic happens when the guy adds in the liquid nitrogen. He's also very friendly and willing to wait and pose for pictures. The sorbet texture is amazing.. smooth with just the right amount of sweets. For those who are wondering (and people did ask at the market).. yes, it tastes exactly like watermelon.

I ended up with some Finnegan's, 1lb of butter cookies & a lobster tail. All verryyyy good and very delicious. Goodies for work friends to share. They have a parking lot with plenty of spots. I regret not getting a buffalo chicken calzone, fresh pasta and bread. The woman was patient with me and answered all my questions. 100% recommend peeps come here for some treats.

They recently had strawberry soft serve that you could cover in crunchy stuff (like the strawberry shortcake bar you get from an ice cream truck) and it was amazing! Highly recommend following them an instagram so you can know when new flavors drop.

The shop is really cute, and Cal's has very good ice cream. Service was average. The reason I am…read moregiving 3 stars is because the prices are too high for inconsistent portions. As a first time customer, I was surprised to see a "small" which is supposed to be 2 scoops, but really I got 1 large scoop. At the register, it was clear there was a discrepancy in the size I got. One employee asked another employee if the second flavor was in the cup, and I stood there puzzled... if it isn't obvious then the scoops are too small.. when I got to the car, I had to look under the top scoop to find the "scoop" underneath, which essentially hugged one side of the cup, and was not close to a scoop. I thought it was just me, but after seeing similar reviews, this wasn't the first time.

They are allergy friendly. I mentioned a nut allergy and the staff member offered to open a new carton of ice cream to accommodate it, which I thought was very nice. They have every thing from ice cream to soft serve to slush to lattes. They even have homemade cookies and ice cream cakes. There creations are what makes them special - lattes, sundaes, tornadoes, nachos, stackables, etc. This is the only place where I've ever seen flavored soft serve like coffee, creamsicle, and pistachio etc. aside from the regular chocolate and vanilla. Watermelon dole whip aside from the pineapple. They also section to order from outside around the cornee (very easy to miss) and a small seating area next to it. Their ice cream is a bit too sweet for me, but I did enjoy the affogato which was soft serve and coffee. Their coffee tasted surprisingly good, so I will be back to try some of their very creative lattes. We also tried a stackable, which to me is a huge pre-made sundae. It is definitely a lot for one person and price is steeper at around $9-$12, but worth it if you want to share as there are a lot of creative options. I will also come back for some of their different flavored soft serve and the watermelon dole whip!

The prices are on the higher side for a local spot and they appear to serve Gifford's and a variety of ice cream products from different suppliers. The variety is worth the visit if you're in the area but I wouldn't go out of my way. It's a busy shop, expect a line especially on weekends. My main complaint was how long it took to order, I came in with a friend and there were 3 groups in front of us but we waited 25 minutes. I understand it was busy but they seemed short staffed having to juggle the walk up window and the line inside the shop.
