I've had my eye on Mad Willie's for some time but someone never dropped in. I finally did and it…read morewas.. ok. They serve Richardson's ice cream, so not their own, and like other Richardson's not direct from their creamery it seems to lose a little flavor and texture. The name Richardson's is suspiciously absent on the walls as well. I got the banana split with German chocolate cake, blueberry pie, and rum raisin. They were all.. good, but I've had better of all three elsewhere. It was huge and priced accordingly! We had an unrelated issue too- my friend ordered a classic brownie sundae and even pointed at the picture of it on the wall- a big brownie with toppings. What he got instead was a cup with ice cream and pre-cut brownie bits in it, nowhere near as fresh and inviting. He pointed this out to them and instead of apologizing or asking if he wanted something else they just told him they don't make it like the picture. Disappointing product and service. We liked the young team of servers but I feel like the whole place could use an injection of energy and ice cream passion!

Mad Willie's is hands down the best place to get ice cream in Framingham!…read more Even when it's busy, the wait is surprisingly short, and the staff does a great job keeping the line moving while still providing friendly service. The atmosphere is always fun and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to stop by with family or friends on a warm day. The ice cream is absolutely delicious, with plenty of flavors to choose from and generous portions that never disappoint. It's one of those places you find yourself coming back to again and again. If you're in the Framingham area and craving ice cream, Mad Willie's should be at the top of your list. Great ice cream, great vibes, and a great overall experience every time!

Good ice cream for the ice cream set and (for me) the heavy set. -- Ginger: My first taste of this place was on a very hot day and it was spectacular. Gloriously melted on top but not becoming soup, so even more creamy than the natural creaminess. Really pleasant flavor in the base as well as the sweet ginger that had a kick too. Delightful for both flavor and texture. -- Coffee Oreo: Solid version, but neither as creamy as my earlier experience, nor as strong of flavor. Above average but not I-gotta-get-back-here-and-STAT like the first one. -- Peppermint: Better than my second visit, but not as good as my first. Entirely pink color with a few ripples of darker red, with flavor again above average. Easy parking and organized entry and exit paths that might seem a little overkill, but it avoids mayhem and accidents, so thumbs up for that. And a surprising double thumbs up for their sign in the window saying samples are $.50 for three of them. Great deterrent for sample abuse.

We got the banana split with three scoops of ice cream and it was a lot, definitely shareable. There are so many flavors to choose from that it can honestly be a good or bad thing lol. Took us a minute just to decide what we wanted. There are a few tables outside, but it's mostly the type of place where you grab your ice cream, stand around, eat, and chat. Simple spot, great ice cream, and definitely worth stopping by.

We actually get two meals from these dinners. Any other restaurant will charge $25-$35 for full belly clams. In my years you get on average about 20 clams. Never had less that mid 30's count, some small but vast majority medium and large. If you think the price is too high, take a close look at freshness, non-greasy, large portions at the "big name" restaurants. Bet you can't compare.
