FoMu - Cookies and Cream Cookie cookies cream ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Great place for dairy free desserts. However, I can't get past the strong taste of coconut in their coffee ice cream and mint chocolate chip. I know they use coconut milk, so this is something to consider if you don't love the taste of coconut! read more

I came with my husband for some post-dinner dessert. We walked over and ordered two small ice creams in cups. The service was fast - they are efficient with samples. My husband had the chocolate pudding and I got raspberry crumble. The flavors were tasty! My complaint about mine is that there was way too much of the oat crumble. It was almost like having a lot of chewy granola in my ice cream. I prefer a finer, crispier granola. In general, over time you start to notice the coconut flavor of the ice cream base which isn't my favorite. That's the cost of eating vegan ice cream I suppose. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat inside at a big picnic-style table inside and enjoyed the ambiance for a bit.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would recommend for a small treat if you're nearby, but if there is a J.P. Licks across the street I'd choose that over Fomu any day. read more

Stumbled upon it on a walk in south end and it did not disappoint! You could get two flavors in any size even the minis, which is what I got. read more

It has some interesting flavors like salted oatmeal, which is a great experience. I also love it that it has the mini size so it's perfect for an after meal dessert. read more

Love it here! The best I have ever felt after eating ice cream and if you didn't tell me I would not have even known it was dairy free. Incredible flavor that tastes very fresh and doesn't leave you bloated! Can't wait to go back and try the others very soon read more

Vegan hubby loves Fomu ice cream, and I remembered it tasting good with a nice texture when I ate at the now-closed Allston location. Maybe I chose the wrong flavor here. I had blueberry crumble. The texture was grainy, as if the ice cream had melted and refrozen. Next time, I'll ask for a taste before ordering any Fomu ice cream. Hubby was happy with his 2 scoops. read more

Not bad dessert spot. You can ask for samples. Ordered the mini cookies and cream and it was a decent sized cup for me. Tasty treat after dinner to keep me not bloated read more

FoMu - Oatmeal cookie - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Stopped in for some frozen dessert to cool us down on a sunny spring afternoon. I ordered the seasonal raspberry ice cream with chocolate shavings and my friend got the George Howell iced coffee. Both were so good. The raspberry with chocolate flakes was light and refreshing. The iced coffee flavor had a sweeter and slightly heavier flavor profile. Both were delicious - would never guess the ice cream is vegan! We also bought 2 cookies and can't wait to sink our teeth into them. Definitely worth a stop in. read more

The ice cream we got, while flavorful, was very sweet and rich. It was hard to finish. The service was great, our cashier was very kind. The ambiance is very calming and clean. read more

FoMu - cookie dough sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Finally - ice cream I can eat! Delicious ! I tried the vanilla ice cream because I was a little nervous about the coconut flavor - having had other coconut based frozen treats many of them are overwhelming with the coconut flavor or aren't soft enough to be considered a fair ice cream replacement. Not only was this delicious but not hard as a rock! Next time I'll try the cookies and cream! Yum! read more

OBSESSED!! i love that every single thing here is plant based so i could enjoy any treat on the menu!! the ambiance inside is nice inside and also it's next to a cute street you can sit on stairs if you want. so many different options on the menu (frappe, smoothies, brownies, ice cream, ice cream sandwiches, etc..) and everything is so so delicious! out of the 6 of us, i was the only vegan but everyone was obsessed!! took off a star because it's so expensive, $6 for a small. i understand it costs more to produce, but the price makes it less accessible to people looking for dairy free ice cream and treats. but overall we love fomu and will def be coming back for those pints to take home:) read more

I admit, I was skeptical. Was FoMu merely another morsel of a Vegan agenda? A part of the Trendy Healthier Foods agenda? After all, the ice cream I grew up eating usually came from the overly suckled teat of a cow (see general concerns about the contemporary dairy industry). I stand corrected. After my aunt told me at least eighty-six times over the course of two weeks that I HAVE TO GO TO FOMU when I'm in Boston, and others recommended the place, I decided that a visit would be obligatory. I strolled into FoMu South End on a sunny, warm day. Dry, but an excellent time for ice cream. But (allow me to briefly push my agenda) as I've said and will say again: ~~~IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE HOT TO EAT ICE CREAM.~~~ Back to it: I strolled into the chilled, nicely decorated FoMu in the South End, sampled several flavors, and ultimately settled on the avocado ice cream. If you think avocado can only be savory, you need to reevaluate your beliefs. This was some thick avocado goodness. Cold and creamy, the ice cream yielded that sweet, sweet sensation as it melted and oozed down my gullet, into my entrails. TLDR; the ice cream was great. As creamy, if not CREAMIER, as cow milk ice cream. And much more sustainable! Note that I deducted a single (1) star for the prices. Although unsurprising, FoMu is expensive. Expect to spend over $5 for an ice cream. Don't go to FoMu expecting some sort of sweet watery sludge. Although there isn't a single drop of animal milk, the ice cream here rivals that of Stewart's Shops in upstate New York. I would recommend, just save up the funds first. read more

FoMu - A partially eaten avocado ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Fomu is a dream come true ice cream parlor for lactose intolerant consumers such as myself. The ice cream are not located in clear sight to see what each flavor looks like; instead, they are located to the back wall behind the counter. However, the staff is willing to make the walk back there with sample spoons in hand if you'd like to try a couple flavors before ordering. I love that they are environmentally friendly and use compostable material for the bowls, spoons, napkins, etc. I was hoping to get lavender ice cream after seeing it in photos. However, the ice cream flavors are seasonal and/or rotate, and that flavor was not available. Thus, I ordered a brownie with cookies & cream ice cream, drizzled with hot fudge and caramel, and topped off with spiced nuts. The brownie appeared to be dark chocolate, and was hard since it had been sitting out behind the counter. It would've been great if they could store it better or warm it up before serving. The cookies & cream ice cream was divine. It was creamy and spoon-licking delightful. It could fool a dairy aficionado into believing that it was made using milk; NOPE, it's all dairy-free. The hot fudge and caramel enhanced the taste of the ice cream and brownie. The spiced nuts added a desired crunch. With all of it together, it was a good level of sweetness and texture. read more

Great little vegan ice cream shop! I got the cookie dō sundae & my boyfriend got a regular scoop of vanilla bean & cookies and cream ice cream. The cookie dough scoop in the sundae was a splendid addition & I loved the slightly nutty kick it had. I am dairy-free & thoroughly enjoyed it, however I would beware if you are not vegan as it does not taste like dairy ice cream. There is a slight coconut (?) taste to everything we tried but I love coconut so it was no issue. Will definitely be back! read more

FoMu - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Dare I say it?... I think FoMu is better than regular ice cream... I'm obsessed with the blueberry shortbread flavor. It's creamy and delicious. The coconut base isn't overpowering at all. Grasshopper pie is also delicious. The ingredients really do make a difference! Pints are $10 each. It's expensive but worth it. I have a lot of dairy free friends and this stuff is amazing. Highly recommend. read more

Vegan "ice cream" never tasted this good before. Maybe it was the sweltering July night, and my sore feet from walking all day...but my desert from FoMu really hit the spot. I got the blueberry shortbread "ice cream" and enjoyed every bite. I also love that they are plastic free. The spoons were wooden and the cups were paper. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Big space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wife had a cookie after a big meal. She liked it, was empty service was good.

If you don't believe me, check my profile... I love ice cream!! Just last weekend I went on an ice cream tour of northern Connecticut and ate 6 ice creams as part of my (totally scientific) study. To my fellow ice cream lovers out there... FoMu did not disappoint!! I was worried about the dairy free aspect at first because I love dairy, but rest assured that the ice cream is still creamy and delicious. I had the Apple cider donut ice cream, and the flavor was spot on. It had pieces of actual apple cider donuts mixed in, and it brought me right into the fall mood. I would highly recommend this flavor. It's not going to be your cheapest option around but if you are looking for creative flavors, a creamy texture, and all without that post-dairy feeling, FoMu should definitely be on your list!! Interior was clean and bright, and the employees were super nice. All around good experience tonight! read more

I wouldn't call myself an ice cream guy, my tastings are far and few between. But I've bookmarked all the popular ice cream stops in the city and I promise if I can pick up my "one a year" pace, I'll eventually try them all. On this rare occasion, I found myself at Fomu. A vast space not only for the south end, but for an ice cream shop in general. The menu features basics(that's where I stay) and then your wacky, I mean creative flavors. The Cool thing about fomu is the ice cream is made from scratch with real, plant-based ingredients. How does this end up being the end product? I have no idea. All I know is that the strawberry is freaking delicious. Like the best I've ever had delicious. My sample size is minimal at best, but I think I just might have found my favorite ice cream shop! Now on to the next.....some time next year..... read more

Came here on a Friday night with one of my class mates not realizing it was vegan. The vibe is great, love the atmosphere. A very long, open space. Wish there was a more accessible layout for seating. The line up area is also a mess, super chaotic and hard to speak to staff. Once they serve you, you still have to wait to pay and the ice cream melts so quickly that it's half goop by the time you do pay. The staff were friendly enough, but when I asked if there was water the employee rolled his eyes at me. The ice cream itself was not my favourite. It's very sticky and dry, afterwards I realize that it's because it's vegan. The taste of my cookies and cream was not what I expected. I'll probably try to go back eventually and try another flavour and maybe redeem it? read more

This is a great alternative to a dairy ice cream shop. My friend and I didn't even realize it wasn't dairy ice cream at first. They also have gluten free options which was great. Only down side was that they double charged me for my friends order, which couldn't be remedied on the spot and I'm hoping I'll receive the additional charge back to my card. Other than the confusion while being checked out, the ice cream was good! read more

My husband and I went on a date night and stopped by FoMu after dinner. I had the strawberry rhubarb pie ice cream. It was amazing!! Chucks of pie crust, real strawberry pieces and flavor, not artificial. I could not get enough. My husband had the mint chocolate chip on a waffle cone. Worth the trip for us. Highly recommend anyone who loves delicious ice cream try this place. You'll never know it's vegan. read more

Cute little spot for delicious ice cream. I'm not vegan but the choices were amazing and great quality! Size portions are very generous. Bambi was so super friendly, and an absolute pleasure. Looking forward to our next visit. Please come to Northern VA, we welcome you with open arms!! read more

Want vegan ice cream that tastes like REAL ice cream? FoMu is the spot! Whether you're dairy free or not dairy free, you will leave satisfied. FoMu's ice cream is impressive - they are all made with a coconut base, yet they taste very close to regular ice cream. The ice cream consistency is stretchy (indicative of small ice crystals!), smooth, and dreamy creamy. You can tell FoMu tries to use high quality ingredients and they really care about the flavors and textures of their products. Also, the mini cup size is plenty, so you're getting your money's worth! The only thing I'd note was their slow service the day I went. There were people packaging ice cream and only one scooper, so I waited awhile before I was able to get my ice cream :( Here are the flavors I tried and what I thought: PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE COOKIE - 5 STARS After my sample of this flavor, I knew I was ready to commit to a cup. The base is a peanut butter flavored ice cream, which is rich and creamy, but not heavy. You can taste a hint of coconut flavor, though it is barely detectable. I absolutely LOVED the chocolate cookie crumbles mixed in the ice cream - they weren't soggy at all, and the crumbles added texture and a delicious chocolate flavor. This flavor tasted like peanut butter chocolate cups which is always a plus :) STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE - 4.5 STARS Though I didn't get a full size, I had a few samples of these hehe! The strawberry flavor tastes super natural and fresh, and there was a hint of rhubarb that made this very unique. I absolutely loved the pie mix-in, which made me feel like I was taking a bite of pie! RASPBERRY CRUMBLE - 4 STARS Raspberry crumble was very similar to the strawberry rhubarb pie in that they both had pie mix-ins. The raspberry base also tasted extremely fresh, high quality, and refreshing!!! Though I tasted the coconut flavor in the ice cream, it wasn't too detectable. Overall, I'd DEFINITELY come here again for the amaziggg vegan ice cream! I'm not even vegan but I'm craving this right now :) read more

I haven't stopped thinking about this place for a second. i've tried a lot of plant-based ice cream, and honestly it's usually alright compared to the real thing. this, however beat any dairy ice cream I have ever had by a long shot. all of the flavors I tried were amazing but the peanut butter cookie and grasshopper pie changed my life. the things I would do for fomu to come to san diego or los angelesI would drive hours for this creamy, delectable treat. read more

This is by far the best non-dairy ice cream I've ever had. The coconut milk makes it a little thicker than how I typically like my ice cream, but it's still creamy and delicious. Between the matcha white chocolate chip flavor and the cotton candy flavor we got, the matcha wins. It literally tasted just like dairy matcha ice cream, but without the stomachache. The coconut milk was a little more prominent in the cotton candy, but overall still a yummy flavor (maybe a little sweet near the end of my scoop). The interior is very spacious with lots of seating. I think their flavors rotate every so often, I'm excited to come back to see what's new! ((: read more

Amazing ice-cream - vegan or non-vegan, it is simply in a league of its own. So creamy and packed with flavor. I will be thinking about this strawberry rhubarb for a very long time. read more

Got the chocolate and Oreo ice cream. I have never really had good vegan ice cream, texture, consistency and taste are always off. This place was good but wouldn't necessarily come again unless I needed vegan ice cream. I will say compared to all the other vegan dessert places, you cant really taste the coconut milk - u can taste the flavor. Loved the place though - very clean, the water cups really helped on a hot night, also loved how late it was open compared to other places in Boston. read more
