The original here is on the town square and is spacious. I was surprised that their non-dairy offerings were not quite as robust as the DC shop, and they didn't have my usual favorite flavor. However, the fresh mint and sweet cream flavors that I was able to try delivered a characteristic richness. I was quite happy to have tried this one, and now I have to find an excuse to go to Japan.

Really enjoyed this place and the ice cream!

We had zero wait when we popped in but I can see it getting busy quick. I LOVE soft serve and they had additional flavors than the typical chocolate and vanilla so I had to try. I believe the flavor I got was coffee (if you're following our ice cream trek, you're probably over me saying that I got coffee lolol) and my wife got strawberry. Listen, we like what we like! Service was fast and efficient. and most importantly, the ice cream was smooooooooth and delicious! I would definitely be back if we're ever in the area again!

My wife and I made it our mission to try as many ice cream shops as possible while in Maine and…read morethis was our first stop. The outside is super cute! They have a tiny patio near the front door where you can grab a blanket if you need and hang out while you eat your ice cream. They have additional high top seating around the front of the building as well. There are an incredible amount of options inside so if you have decision paralysis, get readyyyyyy. The staff was very patient while we thought and thought and thought. After careful deliberation, I ordered the Coffee Heath Bar hard serve in a waffle cone (that they make there!!!) and my wife ordered Nana's Ginger in a cup. Both were amazing! The coffee heath was so well made; creamy and dreamy. The ginger was so light and refreshing! I almost switched but the coffee was too good to give up. If you're in Ellsworth and are craving something sweet, head into Morton's Moo! You will not be disappointed.

I couldn't find the menu of flavors/items online nor on any social media so I called the store to ask if they had any vegan flavors. The worker was very nice and told me they had 4 flavors! I do wish they listed flavors online though! We went about an hour before close and luckily got there before a bunch of other people did. My boyfriend is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts and while the employee was very helpful with identifying which ice creams had nuts in them (they had a poster on the wall as well as a sheet) we noticed almost every flavor that didn't contain nuts was right next to a nut-containing flavor, which could increase the risk of cross contamination. The employee did wash his hands and the scooper but I wish this spot just separated the nut-containing and nut-free flavors! Very easy switch. I got the vegan blueberry crumble which was super yum, and my boyfriend got the S'mores which he also enjoyed! I did like that there were some sodas/snacks on the shelves and souvenirs too. Overall a good shop but I think it has space to improve! :)

This wasn't only an ice cream store, but they also sold some desserts, snacks, and lots of mugs, etc. I really wanted blueberry ice cream but they didn't have any so I settled on a soft serve swirl. I wanted sugar cone but they said they couldn't do it in a sugar cone. Oh yes you can! You just need to make the swirls more compact so it doesn't get too high. Disappointed they wouldn't do it. The soft serve was decent and the small size was plenty big. Seems like everywhere we have gone in Maine we spend $18 on 2 items.

In addition, we also tried the blueberry ice cream (one of their most popular). In terms of the lobster ice cream, it pretty much tasted like vanilla ice cream with frozen bits of minimal lobster (so the ice cream tasted slightly salty). For the blueberry ice cream, we had to come back to get it a second time--so rich and creamy, full of blueberry flavor at just the right sweetness. Once you walk in, the store is structured in a clockwise circle to help with moving/organizing the line as it gets busy during the summer months. No seating inside but there are some benches outside along with the park not too far away. Overall fairly yummy ice cream, just pretty expensive! Prices start a bit above ~$8 + tax, at the lowest tier, which is a kiddie size in a cup, sugar cone, or cup cone.

They have so many scooped flavors (including several blueberry ones), soft serve, shakes, and the list goes on. We were happily surprised with big scoops and very tasty ice cream. It tastes like a homemade ice cream, and has a lovely texture. The line may look long, but I will say it moves along quite quickly. There's a few tables on the side of the building, which are nice to sit at and enjoy. Be warned they're a cash-only location, but given that I would say the prices and location it's worth the trade off. I'd happily come back to this place for another round.

I tried their whoopee pie that seemed larger than most, and that was good, too; their blueberry pie was also good. I haven't met a blueberry pie around here that I didn't like. A busy place.
