    Huckleberry Ice Cream
    Jackie C.

    This place was awesome! They are known for their huckleberry ice cream. The ice cream they had was blackberry and huckleberry. They don't have any tasting spoons, so you can't try it. It comes in a cone and it's delicious. I would recommend the ice cream to other people.

    This place and their homemade huckleberry ice cream was on the must see list of things to do in the Bend/Terrebonne area of Oregon, according to the Visit Central Oregon tourist magazine. After a long hike through Smith Rock I can imagine a cold huckleberry ice cream cone would sound fantastic, and let me not sway you away from doing so. The ice cream was fabulous. It was smooth, rich in flavor and not too sweet. I just had a issue with the storefront itself. The nice gentleman serving up the ice cream was working with store stock, stickers, shirts and other odds and ends when we ordered. His hands were visibly stained with the evidence of a hard days work. His shop, rather quirky and charming in its old world appearance, was disheveled and in need of a good old woman's touch and some down and dirty cleaning. So when this kind man grabbed an ice cream cone, ungloved, with not even so much as a napkin separating his hands from the cone nor washing his hands before handling food, I was grossed out. I really debated not eating the cone, but decided, what the hay, I haven't died from germ exposure...yet. It was good, but very simple, just a plain old sugar cone. No waffle cones. No chocolate dipped cones or waffle bowls or even the option of jimmy's on top. Nope. none of that fancy stuff. Just good homemade ice cream. After seeing the long line on previous visits, I expected a bit more pizzazz, but it is what it is. The fees were reasonable, so if they could just work on the whole cleanliness issue.....yeah, that would be a good thing.

    Yum! Huckleberry ice cream (in a cup). Better than Salt and Straw (PDX). It was a first! I can see it becoming tradition.

    I don't know their hours anymore or if they're still operating, but the huckleberry ice cream is worth a stop if they are.

    Death by chocolate should be pulled out of stores as this flavor is more than bad tasting it's…read moredisgusting. Who ever thought chocolate should taste like this abomination should be ashamed of themselves. I thought with the hot weather it would be a nice treat but it got tossed. It has such a terrible taste and texture that I will not try any other of the concoctions. Folks just walk on by this terminal mistake

    As I lie there, awake, my stomach has wrenching pains. It's hard for me to breathe. My heart is…read moreracing. A second and separate time l, had one more sip. Why? I love eggnog. I purchase this one pint in Madras Oregon. Two hours ago. I opened it up and I took a couple sips. It reminded me of my sister, Evonne love eggnog. At that time something, as it went down, it didn't feel right. A couple minutes pass. I felt nauseous so I went upstairs to lay down and it started, my stomach worsened, tied up in knots. My bowels felt like they were going to fall out. I laid there for two minutes and all of a sudden my body wanted to throw up whatever was in my stomach. I did and it felt so much better. I don't recommend this eggnog. There's something wrong with this batch. I went downstairs and tried it one more time bout two minutes ago. It was the same feeling there was pain flattery feeling like there was a substance in there like a metal substance. I do not recommend this product. I could not believe I drank that eggnog again. What's wrong with me? Why did I want to torture myself again? It was THE strangest feeling. I wonder how many other people got sick? Ok

    Birdsong Ice Cream is one of the food carts at Podski that surprisingly sells New Zealand-style…read morereal fruit ice cream. I never expected to find this style of ice cream in Bend of all places! They even have a legitimate Little Jem ice cream mixer. Their menu is really simple, with only two types of base, one vegan, one dairy, and four different fruits. They offer two different sizes, but I'm not sure how much larger the regular is vs. the small. The little display in the front doesn't make the regular seem much larger. Perhaps they should actually display the volumes to make it clear? Regular, Vanilla Base, Marionberry ($8.50) - They use a really, really stretchy base here, stretchier than most ice creams that I've ever eaten, almost like it has mastic gum added. Other reviews mention they use Tillamook as the base, but I'm a little skeptical. Tillamook is certainly stretchy since they use guar gum as a stabilizer, but I can't recall it being quite that stretchy! I believe most other NZ real fruit ice cream places use sweet cream as the base to really allow the fruit flavors to shine, but Birdsong uses vanilla, which adds a delightful note that enhances rather than covers up the fruit. It's a complementary flavor and works very well together, although I personally still prefer having sweet cream only. The fruit is blended in very well so there aren't any icy pieces at all, with the only textural difference coming from a small bit of crunch from the seeds in the marionberries. It's otherwise a sweet, berry fruity dessert. I guess the one downside is that the portion size is kind of lacking for the price. I get more from the real fruit ice cream places in Seattle for cheaper, despite Seattle being much higher cost of living. (4/5) Birdsong serves a pretty decent representation of New Zealand real fruit ice cream, at least to my limited knowledge! It's certainly worth a try, if not just as a sweet frozen treat.

    Worth the drive out to the podski food cart! Super refreshing and creamy. More on the creamy side…read morethan fruit but I got the marionberry one and it was excellent!
