On a 78 degree clear Sunday evening in mid July, the two lines to place orders were long, and the parking lot was full. The quality of the home made ice cream makes Baron's a summer destination. It is amazing how organized and well thought out the ordering system is. There are two lines/windows for orders, and a third line/area for pick up. If you pay with a card, there is a staff member expediting orders while you stand in line. Staff brings your order out. It only took 25 minutes from arriving to indulging.

I originally parked in the small lot on the right (when facing the building) and it was a very tight squeezed, but then realized there was a much larger parking lot on the other side, so I moved over there. It's been a while since I've visited The Inside Scoop. The last time I remember going, you went inside and ordered the ice cream. I'm not sure when they switched to the window, but I found it to be much more convenient than many people being squished inside a small space to order. There were lots of choices of ice cream to try, but I ultimately picked blueberry pie in a sugar cone. It was delicious. My mom picked peppermint (her favorite flavor) and was very happy with how many chunks of candy were in it. The employee that took our order was very friendly and seemed to scoop our ice cream well. Overall, The Inside Scoop is a must-try ice cream spot in this area.

The heatwave was doing its thing, but luckily there's a good amount of shade in front of the building as you wait to be served. There's a tiny parking lot to the right of the boldly painted building, but an even bigger one to the left. If you have a larger vehicle, I recommend parking in the left lot. Plenty of space for you there! The young woman at the counter was super peppy and was excited to scoop me her favorite, black raspberry Oreo, on special that week. I grabbed extra napkins because the humidity outside was already working against me. I walked over to the seating area on the side and got to work quickly before nature won. The black raspberry ice cream was cool and creamy, great raspberry flavor without tasting artificial as some do. The oreos adding some chocolatey richness to the experience. It felt indulgent and refreshing. I basically inhaled it so I wouldn't wear it but every bite was fantastic. Inside Scoop has been there for ages, and for good reason. Next time you're in North Kingstown, swing by and try it out for yourself!

MY FAVORITE ICE CREAM EVER…read more where the heck have these 4 star reviewers been that say this isn't the best ice cream they've ever had? because I'd like to go there!! Brickley's is what I look forward to the most when coming to RI in the summer. The ice cream is so creamy, rich, perfect!!! Great flavor selection. Service is always good and fast, and they're always happy to give me multiple samples. It's not cheap but what is? Nothing that's good quality at least. This location has nice seating outside as well. Right downtown in Wakefield with lots of other shops around. There used to be another location near Bonnet Shores but now it's called Baron's. Same amazing ice cream though.

There was plenty of street parking close by. There were lots of flavors that caught me eye, but ultimately, I narrowed it down to the three I wanted to sample: Ginger, Brittle Brickley's, and peanut butter cup. I thought the ginger one was unique, but I was more impressed with the other two that it was voted off the island. Since you could only choose one flavor with the kiddie size ($4.99), we upgraded to small ($5.99) which allows for two selections. They don't have indoor seating, just an outside patio with chairs and tables, but since it was raining, it was not an option. Once someone handed us our ice cream at the side of the building, we walked back to our car to eat it. The ice cream is very creamy, not overly sweet, and lives up to the names of its flavors. The brittle brickley was a vanilla base with chunks of toffee or butterscotch. The chunks were light and small so not hard on the teeth at all. The peanut butter cup had a good amount of candy in it. For the quality of the ice cream and serving size, I thought the price was fair.

I developed a fondness for cherry ice cream when I was in London, though I don't know that that's what they're known for exactly, but I'd sampled a few cherry flavors at other locations and wasn't impressed.

Parking is shared with the connecting stores, and we didn't have any issues finding a spot. There is a couple serving windows, but we decided to go inside since it was cold. We were the only patrons. The one scooper looked bored out of her mind as we looked at the flavors. I was excited to learn they serve Gifford's ice cream. I want to preface the review that I really wanted Campfire S'mores. It is my absolute favorite flavor from Gifford's. I could eat a whole tub at once. I scanned the freezer to find my beloved flavor and I was taken back. A few tubs are double stacked, with the new tub underneath a ripped open tub. My Campfire S'mores was in a very low ripped tub, looking wet, sad, and disappointing. I've never seen leftover ice cream look this wet. I was nervous and tried it, and my assumption was correct, a big NOPE. It was old and gross. Definitely not what this flavor should taste like. That was the moment where I didn't know if I could trust other flavors. I tried cotton candy, and it appeared okay. It looked and tasted as it should. I sampled I Scream For Cake... Seems fine, a little melted. When I asked to try one more, she said, "We're only allowed to give out three samples, sorry." Never at any ice cream shop have I been told about a sample limit, and definitely would have rather been told BEFORE I started sampling wet flavors. I was starting to lose all interest in this shop. I was afraid to get a cup of anything new, so I settled on I Scream For Cake. The boyfriend got Peanut Butter Pie. The awkward moment was when the scooper quickly placed his ice cream on the counter top and it fell over. She sighed loudly, threw it in the trash (I emphasis on threw), and started over. Oof. We ate our melted ice cream outside. The ice cream scoop was okay. The whole experience and interaction was not what I wanted. I hope they get colder freezers and toss the wet ice cream. Right now, I don't plan to return.
