I'm glad the Ice Cream Shoppe bought this location to continue providing treats for the area. The selection of ice cream flavors is one of the largest lists I have seen in a long time in this general area. Most of the ice cream is not locally made, it would be almost impossible for the amount of flavors they offer. One thing you can't forget, it is a locally owned business and employs great staff members from the area. The service was very friendly, upbeat and efficient. They were so welcoming! The ambiance is pretty similar to when it was Honeycone Social. Very casual and a place to eat, chat, play a game and just relax. We really enjoyed our time and felt bad, we stayed a little pass closing, finishing up our card game and sundaes. They didn't seem phased by it. We never once felt rushed, although we were trying to hurry. I recommend this place for all ages. They have milk free options as well. When the weather is nicer, they kept the wonderful outdoor seating areas as well.

Solid servings and great flavors! Wish it was closer to our house…read more Our family loves this spot.

Amazing ice cream found in the Old Port!

I was blown away by the cinnamon-cardamom and coriander-lemon--such bold, unexpected combos. Honestly, I could hear my inner scream of joy with every bite!

A little bit of mixed feelings here, the flavors are creative and interesting. They don't allow…read moresamples as others have mentioned, which really hampers my willingness to try their very creative flavors. It's a cop out to talk about sampling spoons as waste when I've seen other ice cream shops find solutions to that, it's really just greed. They know they'll sell ice cream regardless so they'll cut that corner. Maybe lines are a little longer, but as a local, it makes me not want to come back all year long. Also, the base recipe they seem to use is VERY thick and rich, to the point where it's arguably too much and takes away from the flavors. I've had some good bites here too so it's not a dud altogether. I'll say I'm partial to higher end ice cream (which I feel MDI falls into), and will pay a premium happily for a great product, but I haven't been back in a while because it's hit or miss if I'll enjoy my ice cream since they don't offer samples. I've also not craved any of the 5 or so flavors I've tried in order to return for them. There's great potential there, and I am opening to trying it again if they decide to prioritize local customers over the summer tourists.

They have a few seasonal flavors throughout the summer, but for the most part, their roster stays stacked with the greatest hits. My husband almost always gets the Halloween and I will revolt if they ever get rid of Salted Caramel or Key Lime Pie! Service is so quick, you can sample flavors (just don't be too greedy and hold up the line - there's no reason for anyone to sample chocolate in this economy). There's no seating inside, however a couple of benches. The pro tip is to take your dessert down to Willard Beach and enjoy, but chances are, you'll finish it before you even make it to the sand.

As a southern boy I have to give them extra kudos for using REAL old school fudge (not the chocolate syrup that a lot of places use which is sooo mehhh) for their sundaes. Their ice cream was velvety smooth, rich, creamy, flavorful and pretty much exactly what you would look for in a good ice cream.
