Very adorable ice cream parlor that is separate from the restaurant. I was with five of my friends…read moreand we all were very curious as to the different flavors they offered and felt the need to each try a few. The two people working the counter were very patient and even asked us what we normally steer towards when ordering ice cream and gave us recommendations on what to try based on that. Each of us had got somewhat difficult orders (shakes, scoops with multiple flavors, etc.) and the workers were very cooperative and quick. I got the regular chocolate ice cream in a kids scoop and it was plenty. The ice cream was very flavorsome and I didn't get tired of the flavor, which is what normally happens half way through the cup. The ice cream is from Hershey's, which I had NEVER had before, I didn't even know that they made ice cream. The price of the scoop was very reasonable and cheap for the amount I received. Overall, I will be returning in the future! The storefront is very clean and simple and they have many different ice cream flavors to choose from. There were a decent amount of people in the store, who all seemed to be pleased by their order. The people who came in after us were very happy about the size of the ice cream scoops and couldn't stop talking about how good it tasted! I plan on coming back and trying an ice cream sandwich, because it look delicious.

After lunch, I decided to stop in this small shop for some ice cream. Although the restaurant…read more(next door) has been around for a long time, the ice cream shop has only been around about 5 years. They are next door to each other in the Bethel Pike Shopping Center north of McGalliard, so finding free parking was easy, though a little crowded. Inside the sweet shop, there are tables for guests who wish to enjoy their choices while there. At the back is a long counter with their buckets of ice cream on display. You can get samples of their flavors before purchase. Note on the right hand side is a list of daily specials that might be of use. There are also menu boards for pairings of ice cream and cookies that are available. I went with a lighter option and chose a raspberry sorbet (sherbet?) The woman behind the counter was friendly and promptly helped me with my order. She pointed out that my order qualified for a daily discount which I had missed. Very nice! Really nice tasting treat and a great price, especially with the discount. Review #3513

This particular location is in the old Guardian Brewing space, adjacent to the tracks, and just about a mile from the Ball State Campus. While the locations differ, a few things remain consistent no matter which Books & Brews location you visit. Here is the run down: ++ it's the same B&B charm, same tasty beers, same food menu, same amazing handcrafted wood furniture, same events (trivia, live music, open mic night, table top game night - check the schedule for specific days) as the original Indy location. However, this Muncie location brings a fresh layout, a PATIO, and ice/soda service, y'all! + Keep in mind that there is no beer brewed on the premises as of the writing of this review, so there are no growler fills on Sundays. However, you CAN carry out the flagship Books & Brews beers in CANS! Yes, you CAN! + Don't forget to get Mug Club membership - it's good for life - totally worth it at a measly $70 and good at all locations! + All ages welcome -- kids area in the front, tables for families in 2 areas, or a bar area for just the grown folk. + Patio seating! + Flights available! + Cool literary themed merchandise + Games to play! Free fun! + Free Wifi + No TVs...so put your phone down and TALK to your frennns! Come. Sit, drink, converse. Enjoy :)

It was the perfect bread for our lunch. It was a French loaf, and though it didn't have any spices or seeds in it, it had so much flavor, and was super soft. It toasted up nicely, too. You can tell that the guy who makes the breads and cookies (yes, he makes cookies, too) is really passionate about what he does. He took the time to explain his process and what he puts into his loafs. I want to go back to the farmers market and buy one of his sweet breads next time.

I don't know if it's cheap overly refined sugar or cheap overly bleached flour. But there's something to it. The flavor is there, but I can't breathe afterwards and my body shuts down. It's hardly organic or clean. Wish the would fix this, cause I'd love to suooort local and I'm willing to pay more. I only eat their food when my family buys.

The bruschetta was delicious, and it is worth coming here for that alone. The mozzarella sticks were very average and nothing spectacular. The Penne All'Arrabbitta was good, but they were definitely very heavy handed on the red pepper flakes. Over time, it lacked any flavor besides spice. The Tortellini al Forno had lots of flavor and was very cheesy. We did ask for it with grilled chicken and didn't get any. The waitress explained that there's a language barrier with the kitchen and mistakes like that are common. She was very understanding of the situation, as were we.

When we walked in the…read morehostess was on the phone with a customer, which I didn't mind too much, but it lasted a good minute, and nobody else had come up to try and help us, which I found a bit discouraging. Eventually she got off and sat us down at one of the tables in the bar area. I noticed all the wait staff were crowded around next to it where the kitchen meets the bar, and just chatting. I found it odd considering there's only one hostess and then there's all of these waitstaff just mingling about. But, being short staff is typical these days so I suppose that's probably how it is there. That's probably why the bartender was the one who waited on us as well. She was quite nice, and definitely knew how to make a good drink. I could hardly taste the alcohol in both. The first one I got was a lemonade type if I remember correctly, It was quite refreshing. The second drink I ordered was a blackberry margarita, which was honestly not good. I'm not big on sour, and it was pucker your lips and just drink it quick type sour for me. The rim had salt, and although I'm not a big salt rim person, that was probably my favorite part besides the actual blackberry floating in it. If you like sour you'd probably love it, but personally it was not for me. As far as food goes, we ordered the hummus appetizer to start. It came out fairly quick, and damn it was good. The fried pita bread with flakes of salt on top were our favorites. I could eat a whole big bowl of that alone if I could. When we almost were done with that, our food came out. My friend had ordered their crispy chicken in the dill pickle hot style, and both him and I were surprised at the amount of fries that came with. It was like fries with a side of chicken sandwich. He gave me a bite of his sandwich, and we both agreed it wasn't spicy or dill-y enough. The fries were honestly my favorite part out of all the food. They were so crisp and kept their warmth pretty well. They were also dusted in cinnamon sugar, which just made them 1000% better. Sometimes at other places you get them and they can be soggy or not have anything on them. They make them the right way here! For my meal, I got the drunken dory, I was debating on that or the blackened salmon salad, but figured why not go with some fries. Seeing how much fries my friend got vs myself, I was a little disappointed, but in the end he ended up stuffed whereas I had just enough. I really liked the plating on this, putting the fish on top of the fries so as the outside stays crispy on the fish. It did work, and overall was very nice. Could've used a bit of salt, and came out very hot though. All the food retained its heat very well. Their tartar sauce was also quite good, and as you can expect the coleslaw was nothing to write home about. I would definitely come back here again, probably try more of their apps and beers, I definitely like it better than some of the breweries over where I live in Virginia, so if you haven't tried it I highly recommend you do!
