I really like going to this place, I always order the same thing more than once a week. I've noticed that sometimes I don't have enough bits of fruit inside my ice cream which is a bummer and sometimes I taste banana when I didn't order that flavor. I'm not a fan of banana, so hopefully that won't happen again in the future. Nice service overall and I just hope I don't taste banana anymore! read more

coming here, i wasn't sure if far out was another ice cream place overrated on social media. for once, i was not disappointed. the fresh fruitiness of my favorite fruits twirled with the satisfying cold sweetness of ice cream on my tongue. it was sweetly familiar, yet entirely new. the service was efficient and the seating and design were sleek and well designed. will be coming back. read more

Far Out Ice Cream is the cutest! Located in Brookline, it is definitely a spot to check out! We got the kookaberry which was vanilla ice cream base blended with berries and then mango and banana ice cream blended with vanilla! I personally am not the craziest about soft serve so I can't be the biggest critic, but I definitely enjoyed and would go again. Also, they serve Night Shift Brewing coffee which can only be found there! It was so good and their signature hot chocolate and lattes are great too! read more

I have been waiting forever for them to open since first seeing them on Instagram. The first few opening days they weren't ready yet but my third or fourth time trying they were doing training and let us have ice cream in waffle cones for free! We got Kookaberry and mango and everyone loved theirs. It was like a fruity soft serve smoothie treat and great waffle cones. Mine had a gap at the bottom so it dripped a lot but it was still amazing. read more

Far Out - Kookaberry - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

The ice cream is OK. It's time-consuming to order because everything is customized. The shop was out of the add-ins that I wanted. The ice cream was just OK. read more

Good soft serve but nothing that blew me away. It was also pretty pricey all things considered. Solid spot but nothing super special.

Such great quality ice cream! Had the vanilla with mango and pineapple + coconut flakes, it was fresh and delicious

This is my new favorite place to grab refreshing ice cream, but the service definitely can be a bit slow and unorganized once a line starts to form. While standing in line I noticed two employees made a duplicate order for a customer. Not a big deal, but that's when I should've tried my ice cream before leaving the store and driving away. I ordered a vanilla mango with sprinkles/coconut flakes on a cone which I've gotten numerous times. What I got was unknown. It was a pale pink/greyish color and different texture like a blend of two flavors with the toppings I've asked for. It didn't taste awful, but not what I was excited for. Especially after paying nearly $9. Definitely give this place a try but just remember to double check your order before leaving when it's busy. read more

Right when you walk in you are greeted with an enticing smell that makes you feel warm and welcome. The staff are super friendly and helpful, the ice cream is delightful and light which is perfect if you are stopping by after a dinner date. Plus its just really cool watching them prepare your oder with their soft serve machine. Only downside is they dont accept cash but other then that I woukd deff come back if i'm ever in the area again read more

This ice cream shop exceeded my expectations. I loved the concept of mixing in fresh fruit in with the ice cream to create a smoothie like taste with soft serve texture. I found the portions to be perfectly sized, I often find that ice cream shops give out more than I want to eat but not this place. Also, the freshly made waffle cones are definitely worth the extra $1. I can't wait to go back! read more

Simply great tasting ice cream. The "New Zealand" aspect didn't strike me too deeply, however the taste of the ice cream was amazing. I added everything I liked, hoping it would taste good (even though the flavors didn't complement each other) and it was delightful. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

Far Out - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

A unique ice cream experience! Start by choosing either a chocolate or vanilla base (dairy or dairy free) then a fruit to be blended in. I tried the kookaberry which looks like a mix of raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries with a vanilla base. The ice cream is very thick and creamy. This opening weekend is 25% off! Looks like they have a nice selection of coffees and hot chocolate which may be more inviting for the next couple of months. read more

Love the ice cream concept and waffle cones were great! My only piece of feedback is the price. For the amount you get, the prices were very high. The large cup is a medium anywhere else. read more

So happy they opened up in Brookline! Went on opening night. Great ice cream and freshly made waffle cones! Looking forward to going back!

Ordered from uber eats but packaged super well and labeled great! Filled my ice cream to the top. Soooo yummy

sosososoosos good!!! the hot chocolate is a 10/10, and the hokey pokey ice cream is amazing! highly recommend

Yum! I got the vanilla with strawberry and it is the perfect blend- not too sweet and no artificial flavor! Will definitely be back!

Unique take on ice cream where they mix in fresh fruit and other toppings with different flavors. They have vegan options which is great. I lived the blueberry but didnt love the strawberry. read more

The ice cream was worth the wait I'm glad they're busy. The ice cream and fruit is fresh and the employees are nice and the place seemed well staffed read more

This place is fun and different from the usual ice cream place. Friendly staff too! I had the non-dairy chocolate with strawberries mixed in and it was delicious read more

overpriced, ordering is on a screen that is not user friendly, portions are small, won't be going back.

While visiting this establishment, my hopes were high due to a tik tok I saw promoting Far Out. People have raved about this New Zealand style ice cream so I traveled to Brookline solely for this purpose. I have to say... my expectations were not only met but were far exceeded. From the fresh fruit to the brilliant coffee, this is now my new favorite establishment (YES, establishment.. this is much more than just an ice cream shop). The staff was welcoming and the ambience was orange in a good way. Will ABSOLUTELY be coming back! read more

Wow--this ice cream is amazing! The texture is creamy, and the blended fruit that is added in adds the perfect amount of sweetness. I ordered the Kookaberry flavor, which is a mix of berries, in a kiddie size. A+ and friendly service too! read more

Far Out - Kookaberry ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Brookline, Massachusetts

One of my favorite ice cream spots in the city. The ice cream here is creamy and not overly sweet- and it feels like I'm eating something healthy since they mix fruit into it! I'd recommend the chocolate ice cream base mixed with raspberry and strawberry. Skip the graham cracker topping as it's only a tiny dusting and it crumbles off the ice cream very easily (half of it ended up on the table). My only real complaint is the sizing. I ordered a regular ($6) and my friend ordered a kiddie ($5) and hers was just as big if not bigger than mine. read more

I really enjoyed this ice cream. It was super refreshing, had a smooth consistency, and was very tasty. If you love fruit, you will definitely love this ice cream! read more

I don't understand the hype. I went today and got a cup with a vanilla base and two fruits mixed in: peach and raspberry. It was very creamy but not very flavorful. I prefer intense flavors. The tables were dirty, the chairs uncomfortable, the service impersonal thanks to touch screen ordering. I will stick with JPLicks down the street or drive to Cambridge for Toscanini's. read more

Wonderful staff, extremely accommodating and helpful! We were greeted very warmly and the staff had the utmost concern for our enjoyment.

Got the vanilla ice cream with raspberry and chocolate flakes. Amazingly good. Raspberries taste super fresh

Hard to give a rating when I haven't been able to try it yet. Stood in like for 20 minutes (short line) and gave up. The service time is super slow which may just be due to the process, they need to figure out a better way to keep the line moving. read more

This was nice and different to try! The ice cream here is more fruit based, as in fruit flavors are mixed in with ice cream (vanilla, chocolate). The ice cream is like a thicker soft-serve which I really enjoyed. I got the raspberry chocolate sundae one and I thought it had good flavor and wasn't too sweet. There's seating inside and a few tables outside (in the nice weather). Nice addition to the area! read more

They don't accept cash. Nowhere on the website says that, but we wanted to buy a pint of ice cream from the case and the sign on the case says to pay at the register up front, but they would not accept our cash. ‍ read more

An absolute favorite. A bit on the pricey side, but filling and fresh and always hits the spot. Get a pint if you want the most bang for your buck, my favorite flavor is vanilla kookaberry. Folks who work there are super nice too, even the owners who are sometimes the only people working at a shift read more

Excellent. Smooth creamy delicious! Not too sweet! Yum! We enjoyed and will be back for more read more

We live in the neighborhood and was very excited about the arrival of Far Out ice cream. We were very disappointed for the following reasons: - apparently they have not figured out the logistics of serving more than 2 people every 15 minutes - the process of making the ice cream is slow at best -the ice cream was ok but the fruit was FROZEN when mixed in. This is like tasting little bits of ice in your ice cream. We had pineapple and strawberry separately and we couldn't tell the difference! This is a game-ender. If you can't taste the fruit in a fruit ice cream what is the point? -half of the ice cream was not properly mixed in so it was like half vanilla and half l fruit mix -portion was extremely small as mentioned by other reviewers I hope they can fix the problems. Boston is a great ice cream city. If they can't make it here then they don't deserve to be around read more

Arrived here 10 minute before they closed and were told that they will not serve us anymore. Very disappointed and felt really singled out by the experience especially given how many people were still in line for ice cream. They should really change their closing time. I have never been kicked out of getting ice cream in my life. Terrible experience. read more

Man I really wanted to love this place because of how friendly the staff were. They were so welcoming right as we walked into the store-everyone greeted us and they were more than happy to walk us through and give us the spiel on their icecream. They do vanilla with frozen fruit mixed in, and the taste was just okay. The texture was chunky and although it was fresh, it just didn't hit the spot for me. Also a bit on the pricier side. read more

This place is a great addition to the neighborhood. The line takes a little while to move because they make each order separately. I like that this style of ice cream feels a little healthier! read more

This was just ok, at best. The prices were ridiculous- I ordered a regular size ice cream for $6 which would be ok but the serving was made with only one tiny scoop of ice cream, calling it a kiddie size would be generous. I expected that for the premium prices, this ice cream would be really delicious but it was kind of icy and not super flavorful. The machines that they use are really cool but also create a giant bottleneck in serving customers- there were only 3 customers in front of me and it still took 15 minutes to be served. I had to walk by JP Licks to get here and next time, I might just stop my walk there. read more

I love the concept, but the person before us had chocolate, and they didn't clean the mixer before preparing our vanilla/mango. With only a small portion of frozen mango, you could hardly taste the vanilla or the mango. read more

Great, refreshing ice cream. I'm usually quite thirsty after I have ice cream but with the mix of frozen fruit, it's a nice treat.
