    After wrapping up a hike nearby, our group was in need of some well-deserved ice cream. I turned to Yelp for guidance. While the other local shop boasted of serving the delectable Blue Bell ice cream, I was personally inclined towards an establishment that prided itself on crafting its own in-house delights, just like Das Ice Cream Cafe. Luckily, as the tourist season had yet to reach its peak, we didn't have a long wait. However, I could easily envision this place getting crowded during summer. Nevertheless, I firmly believe that the wait, if any, would be well worth it. Upon arriving at Das Ice Cream Cafe, we were greeted by an overwhelming selection of flavors. In addition to the timeless classics, they also offered an impressive array of dairy-free options and a variety of alcohol-infused creations. If, like me, you find it challenging to settle on just one flavor, I highly recommend indulging in a flight that allows you to sample four different flavors. Embracing a sense of adventure, I eagerly selected their spaghettieis--a whimsical and playful delight. I wish I could have gone with a more interesting flavor beyond vanilla for the base because they had so many amazing options to choose from. It was still good and I luckily got to sample the scoops that other people in our group chose. It was a great experience. I am confident that on my next trip to the Helen area to visit my family, we will return to Das Ice Cream Cafe.

    What an amazing place in Helen. It is a little ways down from the main shops in Helen but well worth it. When we walked in we were warmly greeted and all of the options were excellently explained. The ice cream was excellent and really a "childhood dream come true"

    Some awesome Adult flavors

    Todays selection was suggested by the cashier and we tried the Bourbon Honey Vanilla and the Chocolate German cake. Both were creamy and delicious. Definitely recommend this establishment.

    Made on Premises Ice Cream: who doesn't love that! Went for the adult flavors (yep, alcohol baby). Mmmmmmmmmmm!

    The owner was so personable and I could tell he had a passion for his craft which was admirable! The ice cream was a nice thick consistency which I love and had so many flavor options including dairy free, sugar free, and adult flavors infused with booze ;) ((employees were also all very personable except for a young man that worked there he was a little rough around the edges especially when it started to get busy, he came off as a little rude and annoyed but hey they're hiring!! Room for improvement not hard to wear a smile.)) Alll in all I will definitely come back to try more flavors!!

    Delicious ice cream and friendly service! Super clean and loved all the the options and flavors they had. You can tell this ice cream is made with a lot of love and patience! We will definitely be back! I meant to take a picture of all their flavors - some were interesting and fit the vibe of Helen but here's one of the Boozy options! Yum! The owners were happy to give you a run down of any ingredients and they also had two dairy free options!

    Best Ice Cream! And it's homemade!! I had to try the newest summer flavor (infused with alcohol) the owner was in the store and inquiring if I thought he should add anything to it but honestly it was AMAZING just how it was! We will definitely be back next time we are in Helen.

    Very nice little gem located right next to Spice 55 in Helen, GA. We had dinner at Spice 55 and they actually requested we try the desserts at this establishment. Boy am I glad we did!!! They are up to Covid standards maintaining a clean establishment with some social distancing,l and hand sanitizer is offered upon entry. The staff were very attentive as there was a short line and they still acknowledged our presence, and insisted they'd be right with us on several occasions. Plenty of flavors non-alcoholic and alcoholic alike; only ice cream BAR in Helen. The flavors were spot on and there was a very good creamy churned texture to the ice cream. Probably the best ice cream I've had and Helen or anywhere else in a while. I would highly recommend that anyone visit this establishment for their desserts or just a nice cool treat for any special reason. We will definitely be back!!!

Pricing was very reasonable, and service was fabulous! Stepping into this delectable candy shop was amazing as the smell of chocolate just envelops you and a very large hug! Of course, we walked down the very large candy counter, picking out chocolates for later this evening, and they were very patient with us. They also had free samples of their fudge, and their brittles. They have a wonderful selection of sugar-free confections as well.

The girl behind the counter was spectacular handled my cravings really well and I ended up getting Oreos for my daughter, and I had a selection of Petit fours and truffles, which were fantastic! I also got a couple of large pieces of peanut brittle and some pecan pralines all of which are some of the best I've had in a while. What a great place to get your sugar fix on, and the staff was super friendly, especially when they're about to close. Highly recommend!

But everything was very salty. I mean....very very salty killing the natural flavors of ingredients. I ordered a grilled fish but it came cold. I paid $36 for it.....very disappointed. However, my daughter's and husband's dishes were hot. We tried to get attention from our waitress but it was so hard. We called her several times but she kept walking away. The dessert was so pretty! Since we were full, we shared one dessert. I wish I could eat more different desserts... It was a little pricey for us. But for a special occasion, it's a good idea to visit this restaurant.

We go here for birthdays, anniversaries, and we have been to a couple of wine dinners. I would like to stay this is five stars because sometimes you get the best thing you have ever eaten. Like the cheddar cornbread in the photos. It was so good. Also there was the time they had the pork chop. OMG. But my review is an average of several meals. Looking through photos here, last time I had a steak that was really good on one end on ok on the other. It's not exactly a crudités but the appetizer we had was good and honestly too big. The pickled vegetables were too sour for me to eat all that. The menu is different every day and you do not know in advance what it will be so good luck! There will usually be a couple things on the menu to satisfy most everyone. The restaurant itself is in what appears to be a remodeled old house. It is cozy but not tight or cramped. If you want to try the wine dinner see if you can get on the mailing list. It is wines paired with multiple courses. I have always enjoyed the food but again it is huge. I was so bloated after the last one because yes I could have stopped eating but the food was too good to not eat it.
