Best chocolate ice cream in town! Paired with the brown butter caramel was perfect. I will be back.

Went to Hello Honey with a friend for the first time today and it was excellent! We ordered a single scoop of banana honeycomb in a waffle cone and a single scoop of cookies and biscoff in a cup. We both LOVED our ice cream, and the flavors were present without being too sweet or overwhelming. Their waffle cones are homemade and it was honestly the best waffle cone I've ever had- the contrast between the warm waffle cone and the cold ice cream is indescribably amazing, and I hope I get to experience it again soon. It was around $13 for the two of us combined. The inside is cute, but the plants could use some TLC- all of the plants were halfway to death and most still had the tags on from the store, which made me sad. On the other hand, service was outstanding and I am so glad we came! read more

There are now 3 locations in Cincinnati and I believe one in Kentucky, but Hello Honey still comes across like a small slightly quirky boutique ice cream shoppe. It's larger than it looks -- there's a small counter as soon as you walk in, but it does open up to solid thick wooden tables for a comfortable sit-down experience. The downtown branch is in the same building as World Cinema Cincinnati, which is convenient in a variety of ways: movie-goers often stop in for ice cream before the film, the World Cinema allows you to bring the ice cream into the movie, and the inside door that can lead right into the cinema also leads to their shared bathroom. You order at the counter. Yes, you may know what you want already, but the server at the counter (there's always been just one) will encourage you to try to a free spoon-full of one or more samples. After trying a few interesting flavors, I went back to my favorite: their butter brickle -- two generous scoops in a cup. As usual, it was delicious, and is meant to be slowly savored, nibble by nibble, throughout the film. So that is what I always satisfyingly do. As always, one of the more delicious uniquely-flavored ice cream options in this city chock-full of ice cream options. read more

It's YE Gurl--eating ice cream like it's a civic duty and judging the playlist while I do it. ‍ Hello Honey - Downtown Cincinnati 3/29/2025 This stop was purely indulgent. We took a quick day trip to Cincy and made a pit stop with one goal: ice cream. Yes, again. Yes, we have a pattern. And this time the destination was Hello Honey, a local favorite known for its artisan flair. At first glance, we weren't even sure it was open--it was that quiet. But after some squinting and door pushing, we were in, only to find they were mid-menu shuffle and a few crowd favorites were out of stock. (Warm weather + weekend = expected chaos.) We waited behind a family of four in full indecision crisis and a woman who had to have sorbet explained to three confused kids. All in all, we had plenty of time to plan. What We Ordered: We all went for double scoops in a cup ($7 each). I had: Lychee Rosewater - floral and delicate Honey Lavender - subtly sweet with an herbaceous twist Let's just say: worth it. Clean, refreshing flavors that didn't feel heavy or overly sweet. Noticed the manager was hauling inventory to another location, so this downtown spot may be the quieter of the bunch. Which actually makes it great for a lowkey ice cream date or a solo treat-yourself stop. Plenty of seating in the back and a few charming items for sale if you like a side of retail with your scoop. Would I go back? Possibly--but I'm curious about their other locations now that I've had a taste. read more

Friendliest service and I'm here for the cakes! Sold by the love, there are soo many to choose from - I went with Boston Cream and a small cup of Banana Honeycomb ice cream ($14 ttl) High quality and big enough to split with someone so it's worth the $ Lots of room inside and out to sit with a small group also- outside quite comfortable and aesthetically pleasing read more

I got the honey banana ice cream brownie sundae. It was big enough to split between two people without feeling sick. The honey in it was unique and crunchy. Service is fine, it's a little quiet and dark in the store. There were a few people in there but only looked like 1 or maybe 2 employees. There is also free water cups. Losing a star though because there was not a public restroom. Parking was super easy and I went on the weekend. read more

I read this was one of the places to try the torched hot chocolate, so we walked around the city when visiting fountain square to find this place. It was very cute with unique ice cream flavors and cakes. However the hot chocolate was less than, first off it was NOT HOT, not even warm. Next the "torched" marshmallow was NOT torched the sugar was still on top and they forgot to set the flame to it. We took 2 sips and threw it out around the corner outside. HIghly disappointed. read more

A cute ice cream spot my friends and I stopped. They have so many unique flavors. The service was great and I got to sample a few different flavors. I tried the banana honeycomb and their coconut cream roll cake. The ice cream had the perfect banana flavor and sweetness from the honeycomb. The coconut cream roll cake was so good, I decided to order it for my birthday cake! It is so fluffy and full of coconut flavor. It reminded me of a coconut cream pie. I will definitely be ordering my cakes from here in the future. read more

On our long summer vacation it was like hey another night, another ice cream place. Me and my son walked in and I saw all the unique flavors. This was not just another ice cream place, this was awesomeness for adults and kids! Service was amazing and it was the cutest little place ever. As we sat down cuz it was so cute and my son wanted his ice cream asap. My hubs sat out in the car waiting for us lol. As I held my hubs delicious treat, I stole some of his since my son refused to share which is why I can say how delicious the ice cream was here. Months later I still remember this. It was the most unique and delicious flavor I ever had. I wanna say it was possibly biscotti? Just omg. We also went here when they kept advertising the film honey don't so that was amusing. Made me forever remember the name of this place. Good movie btw. read more

I had an opportunity to travel to Cincinnati a couple of weekends ago, and with the beautiful weather I needed some ice cream! Hello Honey's menu had some very interesting and tasty flavors. Unfortunately we were at one of the less busy locations, so some of the flavors were unavailable at the time we visited. That blueberry cheesecake ice cream though - DELICIOUS! Not overly sweet, the blueberries didn't overpower it, and the flavors meshed so well. There was plenty of seating and a small marketplace inside of the shop as well. I plan on coming back here the next time I am in the city! read more

Was walking around Downtown when we strolled upon Hello Honey. An ice cream shop with multiple locations including Walnut Hills and Pleasant Ridge. They use only fresh ingredients and you can tell. The ice cream is made really well with just the right amount of sweetness. We've tried two flavors, brown butter caramel and banana honeycomb which were both delicious. The service was great too. The guy was really kind and answered all of our questions. There is no parking lot so street parking is or finding a lot nearby is what you'll have to do. The inside of the shop is pretty spacious and there's also plenty of seating outside. Highly recommend checking them out if you're craving a sweet treat! read more

This ice cream parlor seems strongly of sewage. The ice cream tasted like heavy whipped cream then hard packed creamy ice cream. Most flavors are sold out and the ice cream cone is brittle. I'll stick to Jeni's. read more

The ice cream tasted amazing and they serve flavors that you normally can't find at bigger ice cream stores. I love this because it made me be adventurous and try something new! Even though only one person was working, we didn't have too wait long for service, but waited a little while for our order but was worth the wait. There were quite a few tables and it was warm enough to walk through the park next to the shop. I would recommend trying the ice cream here. read more

This place has poor customer service, not friendly at all. You expect a little cheefulness in an ice cream shiop, but not here. And it expected me to leave a tip ... because someone dipped into an ice cream tub! Anyway, I was the only customer and understand why. Plus, the ice cream was way too cold. read more

They're known for their marshmallows (made in-house and served a la flambé). I think this particular aspect of the experience fell off the wagon, because I thought they were *just* good - kinda under-toasted, more tough than melty. I ordered chai, but received some sort of lemony flavor. It was still quite good. In reality they have many gluten free options, but you have to ask for a "secret list." IMHO they could really improve the experience by listing the information publicly. read more

Yummmy! Hello Honey's ice cream is creamy and full of flavor. I got the B Day Dough with a toasted marshmallow on top. The marshmallow was delicious. It tasted like a homemade marshmallow, the consistency was completely different than one from a bag. The B Day Dough tasted like cake with a small amount of sprinkles and chunks of sugar cookie dough. So delicious!! If you're in downtown Cincinnati I highly recommend stopping by! read more

I used to frequent this location often because it's a nice walk from my place and I love the Honey Vanilla and waffle cones. The past few times I visited, the ice cream left an oily film that stayed until I brushed my teeth. It has been a few months but cannot bring myself to go back to this location. During my last visit, I sampled the Charcoal Sesame. I commented that it was good but I probably wouldn't be able to finish an entire cup of it. The woman behind the counter looked disgusted and said, "Yeah. Because it tastes like licking a Chinese wok at a Chinese restaurant." Although I am Chinese American, I have never considered licking this frequently used piece of cookware. She was very passionate about it so I will keep her comment in mind. read more

Really enjoyed this ice cream! The texture is nice albeit a little sticky on the roof of my mouth (maybe high fat content/not fully emulsified?). I generally prefer sticky to icy though. The flavors are all unique but in a classic way - like cookie dough but several types of dough, etc. I wish we had arrived in time to try some of their more popular flavors but they had sold out by the end of the night. It was not the best ice cream I've had this year, but I will return the next time I'm in Cincinnati! read more

A very quiet ice cream parlor that is just minutes away from Izzy's. We tried the brownie cream, peanut butter crunch, and mint cookies and cream. I am uncertain if it is our choices, the flavors, or the way everything was put together. Overall, we thought the three flavors weren't distinctively different from each other. Everything kind of blended together. read more

Location is great to walk in and grab a cone. Every flavor on the menu sounded delicious. I ordered the biscoff and cookie, and a scoop of apple crisp on a waffle cone. Two scoops of icecream. My partner got a vanilla and chocolate flavor on waffle cone. The waffle cones are tall and skinny, and two full scoops of icecream were placed precariously on top. We received this cone, and asked for a cup, predicting that if the cone was not eaten with speed, melted icecream would drop off. We left the store, walked down about half a block. My cone completely broke apart, and I caught the two scoops in my free right hand. Structural integrity of cone for 2 scoops? 0/10 Crunch and flavor of the cone when crunched on top of said icecream, placed in a bowl? 6/10 read more

I love to try local ice cream shops when I visit places, and this was by where we were staying, so naturally I had to check it out. Walking in I kinda had a feeling like I should walk back out because it didn't exactly have an ice cream shop vibe. And the place was totally dead on a weekend during prime dessert time. Really should've trusted my gut. As we approached the counter, we noticed there were bookshelves with random things for sale like instant ramen, jam, vegan jerky, and stuffed animals. Weird!!! We sampled a few flavors and ordered some ice cream. I got the banana honeycomb and brown butter caramel, and my hubby got the brown butter caramel. We sat at one of the uncomfortably low loveseats and started to eat the ice cream. The banana honeycomb had a great flavor, but after a few bites, I was already getting a layer of butterfat stuck to the roof of my mouth. That was terrible. Hard to get past the greasy mouthfeel. So I decided to try the brown butter caramel...it really did taste like brown butter. But omg the butterfat continued to accumulate in my mouth! Like imagine having a thick greasy layer of butterfat in your mouth you can't get rid of. I stopped eating it and ended up throwing most of it away. My hubby threw most of his away too. As we walked back to our hotel, we both started feeling sick. Like so bad that we were taking notice of the garbage cans on our walk, because one or both of us may have to throw up in one. Well, we both spent what was supposed to be a nice evening celebrating our anniversary, praying to the porcelain god instead. I will not want ice cream for a very long time after this experience. read more

Had to grab a sweet treat after my meal in downtown Cincinnati. There were a few other spots to choose from, but checked out the menu before I stopped in. I was eyeing the banana honeycomb ice cream and that was absolutely what I chose. I also decided to add the Dutch chocolate. For both scoops in a cup the price was around $7, which was shocking coming from NYC. The ice cream was amazing. I couldn't finish all of the ice cream, but was glad I got the mix of flavors. The honeycomb in the banana ice cream was crunchy and added a nice texture. The chocolate was also great, but the banana was by far my favorite. Would highly recommend this spot for ice cream flavors that are more bespoke. Will visit again on my next trip to Cincinnati. read more

THE BEST ICE CREAM EVER! Cam here with my husband after my birthday dinner. Was expecting the usual ice cream. First thing we notice, they had some interesting flavors for their rolls ( i got a pandan cream roll and hubs got a boston cream roll). I did a scoop of lemon lychee in a waffle cone. It was amazing creamy flavor, but not so creamy that it waa overwhelming and needed water. I am notorious for never finishing my ice cream or letting my ice cream melt before I finish. Not this ice cream. Even the cream is refreshing. Their cone?? Soooooo good, best cone I have had. Light.. crisp but soft at the same time. Husband got the vanilla and banana wt honey comb. He was blown away .. the vanilla was not strong.. till the end it hits your mouth and its like...wow Customer service was great!! Totally coming back and recommend it if you are looking for the best ice cream read more

I came here and found parking right in front around 8pm on a weeknight, which is to be expected. I ordered a 2 scoop cup. I immediately knew what flavor I wanted as they have a banana one, called banana honeycomb. Unfortunately it is not very strong with banana flavor....and I tasted mostly honey. The toasted coconut chip was really good and tasted similar to a graeters product I have purchased at Kroger before. Although, the only drawback is that it is very sweet. The interior is modern and roomy with several seating areas indoors and several park benches outside along the sidewalk. If you enjoy banana as much as me, this is like a banana lover's paradise. They have 1 ice cream flavor, but they also have rolled cakes with 3 banana flavors, and a banana a brulee sundae where you can choose any ice cream with caramelized bananas on top. Yum!! I will definitely make this a pit stop next time I come back to town. read more

I'm a bit baffled as to how I missed this in my search for a local premium ice cream place. The location is downtown-y, but a bit strangely incorporated into the corner of what looks like a residential complex. It is open even in the winter, though I suspect it's a bit livelier in the warmer months. In addition to ice cream, they offer a series of roll-shaped cakes in largely similar flavors. The main thing I had against them was that this place hasn't gone much into the dairy-free realm, and I've seen other high-end ice cream places do great thinks with oat, coconut, etc. But if I'm rating them on the cream, it was good. This was a very cold cream with a texture more on the solid cake-y side that breaks off chunks in your mouth. Flavors were intriguing, including a brown butter caramel that delivered what the name promised. Their mint cookie flavor was dynamic and I ate it quickly. I'd still recommend coming down to Lexington for some Crank and Boom, but in Cincinnati, this appears to be the standard-bearer. In addition to this downtown location, they've opened up other shops in the suburbs on both sides of the river. read more

After Dinner, my friend and I stopped here for Ice Cream. The Ice Cream Parlor was exceptionally clean and quiet. I loved it. The Young Lady who served us was very nice and patient.

Some of the best Ice Cream I've had. I will definitely return! read more

4.5 rating! I've always been tempted to try this place ever since my friend recommended it ages back. Last weekend just called for icecream, and I'm glad it did. I got the much recommended Honey Lavender and OH MY GOD, I was in heaven. It's really good. The flavor is so on point and satisfies the taste buds completely. Why the 0.5 was omitted? The prices are a lil too steep. I know the quality and flavors and everything are good (basically it's not a low-key chain icecream establishment). However, it's still a lil out of budget for one icecream. And I want to try many more options, but I'm not sure spending this much on icecream is going to be a great idea. Ahh the occasional treat would have to do! read more

If you want good ice cream and less than mediocre service, this is a good place. Visiting from out of town, we had some time before our show at the theater started, so we decided to get the family some ice cream! We walked in and the concrete floors were very sticky. It's an ice cream place. Things happen. There was no one in the store, so we were pretty excited to get our ice cream quick! We were greeted by the young person at the counter, and then another young person came from the back. As soon as we started our order, the first young person said to the other "ok you got this..." and just left. Went to the back. The second young person was so shocked, she left too, and then went to the back! We stood for another three or four minutes waiting and the second person finally reappeared. Our order was taken, and the young person that took our order disappeared to the back again! The ice cream is up front. Still not sure why they both kept going to the back. We finally received our ice cream, but I had to remind them what the last order was because they had forgotten even though they wrote down the order. The ice cream was good. It wasn't soft serve, but it wasn't frozen solid. The peanut butter crunch had a mild peanut butter flavor, the mint chip tasted just like Girl Scout cookies, and the blueberry cheesecake was great. The service wasn't great. Since we are out of towners, we will probably never be back. read more

5/5 stars!! So delicious!! Absolutely will go back to try other flavors. I had the brownie cream!

Cute location with great customer service and ice cream. We came in right before closing as a large group. The person working was nice, efficient, and kept a positive attitude. I got the apple crumble and chocolate wafer ice cream. Their craft ice cream has a great texture and flavors. I will be returning to try different flavors. read more

Hello Honey has several locations in the Cincinnati area, and I visited the one in downtown Cincy. Their flavors are more on the dessert/sweet (ie cookie, cake) side and not as many fruit flavors. They do give out samples and I surprisingly went with Salted Caramel Cone in a waffle cone, which they make in house. Salted Caramel Cone has the right amount of sweetness, but the consistency was more of a soft creamy. I wish the waffle cone had a crunchier bite, as it was a bit soft. They also didn't have other flavors that I wanted to sample cause they were out of stock for the day. Overall a decent joint for some ice cream. read more

One of my go-to ice cream shops that instantly reminded me of my favorite ice cream spot in Santa Cruz, CA. with the toasted marshmallows on top of my ice cream! Although the scoop is a bit shy -- the flavors are enjoyable with every bite. I usually order a scoop of Cookie and Biscoff topped with toasted marshmallow. All I can say is yum! They now sell slices of what seems like cake? I've tried the three different flavors now and so far my favorite has to be the chocolate hazelnut! They moved from their old location in downtown -- which I'm glad they did because it seems they're receiving a lot more traffic than before. I do wish they would expand their open days. Most definitely would recommend coming here even if it's cold outside. It's just going to get busier come summer. read more
