    oreo
    Marin F.

    stopped by this place after in search for a good icecream place that would hit the spot on a hot day in August. immediately when i entered it felt so festive with the colorfully painted walls, the pinatas hanging from the ceiling, and a variety of mexican candies and snacks. i got the oreo and the sour sop popsicle but wow it was so hard to choose based on so many flavors i couldnt pick one. my bf got icecream and they gave him a hefty scoop. i loved how they stuck an oreo right in the middle of the popsicle. it tasted exactly like cookie and cream and digging into the oreo was the best part. the sourop icecream had a faint sour taste to it, but didn't really taste much more than that. not sure if it captured the taste accurately, since i never tried the soursop fruit before, but i wanted to try this popsicle since i like to try sour stuff. there was a long line but the line went pretty quickly as people were getting as many as 5 or 6 popsicles! there is also seating outside, but i sat inside because i didn't want my popsicles to melt. overall, really unique store and definitely make it a point to come here especially in the summer months. i doubt you'll find something you won't wanna try!

    Superrr yummy homemade popsicles! Was in Charlottesville to visit UVA, and this place came up when I searched up good dessert shops. There are so many good options to choose from, and they also have other desserts like flan. I ended up choosing the strawberry yogurt as the lady mentioned that the yogurt ones are popular. It was super yummy and affordable at $3 each. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area - hope to try other flavors if I go back!

    All the flavors of popsicles they have... ready to pick up.

    Excellent ice cream, enormous selection! The sign outside is tiny, so you could easily miss it... but don't because it is wonderful!

    Eggnog Ice Cream - wicked awesome and seems to be year round
    Colin F.

    What does one say about a place that serves eggnog ice cream year round? You say nothing. You get in your car and you drive there. You walk if you must. This place is amazing. The selection of popsicles will give you brain freeze. The ice cream flavors and diverse. The eggnog ice cream is never elusive. Pinatas provide faces to the voices in your head. There are raisins in the eggnog ice cream. I hate raisins. They are over-tanned grapes. Grapes are great. Why are you punishing them? Jerks. I will gladly eat near-frozen raisins to experience the creamy confection encasing them. I looked it up, ice cream is sometimes considered a confection. is the letter "Y" of confections. The people are so nice, too. I didn't even ask for samples today because I have arrived for the eggnog, but they are offering them to me just out of kindness. I've never tried the food or beverages. I've probably eaten a gallon of ice cream from them this year alone, dolled out in very generous scoops. The pic below is one scoop that I already ate some out of. This town is lucky to have this place.

    THE BIG: The flower of Michoacan! I think. Mexican grocery store and ice cream shop! THE BLACK AND WHITE: The bae and I came here on her break from office hours and class. And since it was in the middle of the school day at 2pm, NO ONE was there. Walking in, you're greeted with a vibrancy of colors straight to your eyes. To your right, you get pinatas and to you left, you get the ice cream bar with soft serve or popsicles. There were so many selections of popsicles (many of them exotic). There was even a flavor called Tequila! I opted for the oreos and creme popsicle while the bae got the mixed fruit yogurt. Mine was definitely creamier and sweet and there was an entire oreo in the middle! I do have to say, the mixed fruit was better with its slight tangyness and health conscious berries. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, $4.22 for two popsicles that were definitely of the gourmet kind. It was really cool seeing how many flavors they had and will be back next time I'm in Charlottesville!

    Great hole in the wall. I go for their Mexican ice cream! They have a lot of flavors to chose from my favorites are the mango and passion fruit

    Strawberry popsicle
    Kaitlin P.

    There were so many choices to choose from for the popsicles. I went with the strawberry and it was very fresh and the perfect thing to get on a hot summer day. Very good local spot to visit, it was pretty busy when we went.

    Being in Fifeville on Cherry Avenue, we don't get here nearly enough. Not that this place isn't amazing, just on the complete other side of town. BUT....We were here Monday, and it was great! If you follow my reviews you know I have a thing for Oreo or Cookies and Cream. Walking in, my wife challenged me to find something different. Challenge Accepted. After trying everything (including Pineapple), I settled on Tequila. No, they do not have a speakeasy in the back. I was assured it was just the flavor. But it is a great flavor... I might have been swayed because it looked like chocolate chip... But I call that a win. The flavor wasn't a boozy tequila, it was a hair more than subtle. Mix the favor with the vanilla and a chocolate chip, you have a new experience. Of course I'll be back... Next time, Tres Leches Ice Cream!

    Mangonada
    Danielle S.

    Such a hidden gem! Voted the best ice cream in Virginia in 2019, you may not recognize it's greatness when looking at the Cherry Ave storefront. But once inside, it's a colorful dream. Dozens of flavors of homemade popsicles and frozen treats they make daily. Super affordable as well. Brings Mexican street ice cream to charlottesville. The Mangonada is delicious with a little kick

    a cup of ice cream

    Great popsicle and ice cream shop on Cherry Avenue. Popsicles are $3! I was overwhelmed by all the flavors that they had and was glad to have been able to test flavors. I got their mango popsicle and found it to be refreshing and not too sweet. It tasted like I was biting into a sweet, ripe mango. I'm looking forward to visiting again with friends when the weather warms up since it was very difficult to settle on just one flavor this time. There's also a couple of tables and seats indoors for you to enjoy your ice cream.

Getting ice cream should always be the best point of each customers day and the customer should not be leaving feeling like you were annoying the workers just by doing what the shop was made for. Love this place and the customer service is usually always great but tonight it was way off. You can tell these aren't weekend workers because no way a Monday shift got you that annoyed.

The workers looked to be about high school age and the service was just average. There are a few dairy free options, which was nice, so I tried the lemonade sorbet. Just okay. Not the best sorbet I've had. My boyfriend tried some kind of chocolate ice cream and said it was decent. He commented the scoops were a bit smaller than he expected. Price is very high for just ice cream. Kilwins is a bit cheaper and chaos is definitely a better bang for your buck. Wasn't that impressed with the flavor. Overall it's a decent place to grab ice cream but nothing amazing.

As usual, I'm looking for the best coffee roaster to go to, and Lone Light Coffee was on the top of my list in this area. The coffee shop is on the smaller side, but it was warm and comfortable. The baristas were nice and three of them gave me their input on which single origin I should choose for my pour-over. POUR-OVER - MKT Price +6.50 for Mohammed Aba Nura - Ethiopia (tasting notes: Strawberry, white chocolate, hazelnut) I wanted the craziest tasting option they had, and they recommended this one since it's pretty popular and well-liked among customers. However, one of the barista said he didn't really like it himself. I figured I should still try it. The sips I had while it was still warm was pretty juicy and sweet, but I really didn't like the notes once it cooled down (about 20 minutes later), which tasted sour and off-putting. I should have listened to that one barista and went with a different single origin option. Overall, good roaster -- just unfortunate that I tried something that wasn't for me. The baristas seem knowledgeable and passionate about their craft. I would love to come back next time and try another single origin offering.

The baristas are excellent at making coffee, friendly, and the seasonal drinks are creative. They have a cardamom syrup that's delicious in lattes.

I wouldn't recommend trying to get work done here during a busy time since it's not a huge space.
