    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Awesome place!! The theming inside is so much fun, it's literally a magic bus, haha.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have lots of fun merch and candy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You'll find ice cream, shakes, and plenty of sweets, including homemade pies. We actually came for the coffee, and they have a huge selection of specialty lattes, cold brew, espresso, and more. It's not just a dessert spot, it's definitely great for craft coffee, too! My gingerbread latte was delicious!

    Tropical Sunset smoothie

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a fun, cool place; my daughter absolutely loved the decor and couldn't decide what to order because there were so many great choices.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It looked like there were many vegan options from smoothies to lattes to sorbet (which I think was dairy-free). I ordered the Tropical Sunset smoothie which had pineapple, mango, banana, orange juice, and agave (there may have been one more fruit). It was a little watery and the flavor was a little bitter; it seemed the pineapple maybe wasn't ripe. The staff were wonderful; they kept the crowd moving and were friendly and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was plenty of seating outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did notice though that the garbage bin was heaped and overflowing with trash.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, this is a great place to visit when on Sanibel island!

    Dolphins speciality ice cream

    Quick ice cream stop after long Beach day. I got the banana boat $14. Black cherry, birthday cake, and otnage swirl. My wife got dark midnight Carmel 2 scoop. Both were great. It was the end of the night and there was a long line but they kept it moving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Helpful staff.

    Key lime pie ice cream
    Betsy R.

    My grandbabies and I just adored this ice cream shop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was such a cute shop, there was pretty decor![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There were many ice cream flavors (I went with key lime pie), along with cute smoothie choices, many yummy looking baked goods (including homemade pies) and different sundae flavors (the key lime pie sundae looked good!). [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was cute outdoor seating and indoor options too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The gal who scooped our ice cream was nice and there was a bit of a line but it went quickly. You should definitely stop by after a Sanibel beach day!

    I come here every time I visit Sanibel because the staff is always so sweet, efficient, tentative, and helpful. My family and I have gotten pastries, drinks, and ice cream from here and they are always so delicious. Yesterday I tried the Watermelon Hibiscus Sipper with lemonade and OMG I was in love and have found my new favorite drink!!!

    US flag with holes displayed upside down.

    We come to Sanibel every year. I bring my wife for ice cream but I boycott them since they don't offer a military discount. As a disabled 4-year Iraqi war veteran I was really peeved to see them having the US flag hanging upside down with a large hole in it where the top grommet had ripped a hole in the flag on Memorial Day eve. I was utterly disgusted by their disrespect for the US flag and those who died for it. I would hope that all veterans boycott this worthless dump.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]We weren't impressed with the vibe here it seemed a little sterile.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Lots of gifts tho. Left with an ornament, small discount from our hotel partner program with card. Staff seemed unwelcoming, no greeting, they were kinda talking with themselves ... asked about birthday specials like Ben & Jerry's does but they have none. Non dairy flavors were lemon or raspberry sorbet, nothing really special, no flavor samples offered. Left with no bday ice cream :( completely underwhelmed. Bf thought this was a waste of time and commented staff seemed rude ... must have been a case of the mondays!

    Very nice young lady

    Super tasty brownie ice cream served by a nice young lady. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice sized shop, not cramped.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Did not stink like milk under the appliances, was fresh as a daisy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What an amazing place to find.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love the magic bus. I love the who.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] With that being said this is a great ice cream. Sweet treat kind of a place. We all had ice cream and it was wonderful. Very creamy very good ice cream. We all took pictures in the VW micro bus. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even the bathrooms are decorated towards the theme.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I hope you go. I'll be back soon.

    We got Açaí and it was so yummy, staff was friendly and they zipped through the long line. Prices are a bit high but it's an island so they were reasonable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute little spot def recommend stopping if you can[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I ordered a Carmel macchiato here and I really had low expectations because it is primarily an ice cream shop. I was blown away. This was the best caramel macchiato I have ever had. The ice cream was really good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe in the shop was fun and I loved the bus![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Elsbeth K.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love this fun atmosphere here![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I have three kids and they had a great time here![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The ice cream was delicious

    Magic bus!
    Kim Z.

    Had ice cream! Good crowd at 8:30 pm and the ice cream did not disappoint! Also had their açaí offering in a half size and it was just super. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is just a great place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    It absolutely amazes me how delicious these chocolates are and I wish I lived closer to this place,…read morebut if I did, I think I would go broke from how often I would be showing up to this place! Honestly, probably twice a week, at a minimum! It is easy to find once you are in the plaza and there is a nice amount of parking so you don't need to hunt for any! Along with nice parking, the staff at this location is wonderful and the interior is absolutely stunning! I haven't tried anything other than there chocolates, but they have many different drinks and little foods you can nibble on while you are sitting in there! My latest trip here, I decided to order a box of three chocolates and they consisted of my choices of a cherry pie, mimosa and a shot in the dark truffle. The flavors are out of this world and usually when I try mimosa flavored things, they tend to be overpowering but this one is nailing it every time I am here, knocking me back with how amazing the flavor is! The other two flavors were heavenly as well and I can't stress how amazing they were as well! The chocolates are a little pricey because it is a boutique and small batch style chocolate place, however the price is justifiable because of how amazing the flavors of these chocolates are!

    I absolutely love chocolate so I'm glad I came across this place!…read more I ended up ordering a mini box of 3 chocolates. The box had Mimosa, Cherry Pie and shot in the dark Coffee Truffle. These chocolates were stunning to look at as well as their other desserts. I just had to try the mimosa and despite not being a huge fan of white chocolate (usually hit or miss for me) their white chocolate was definitely a hit! I loved how creamy the chocolate was and while eating it you get a tang of an orange flavor. The Cherry Pie was interesting as it was extremely sweet but in a good way! The dark chocolate is delightfully rich. Lastly, was the Shot in The Dark Coffee Truffle. This was possibly my favorite. If you're a fan of coffee ice cream it tastes like that in a rich chocolate form! I know next time I'm buying more of those. The actual store is spacious and extremely clean and wonderfully organized. The chocolates here are delicious at great prices. I will be coming back for a bigger box next time.

They also have a market as you enter, where you can buy fresh seafood, pasta salads, their bisque and more. Once we checked in with the host, she lead us to our table. Our sever Danny came by and gave us waters and menus. Less than ten minutes passes by and we were ready to order. For entrees I ordered the Seafood Platter ( shrimp scampi, scallops, and grouper this came with a Caesar salad and sweet potatoes) shrimp scampi, scallops and grouper were well seasoned, tender and fresh; my wife ordered the Triple Shrimp Platter (scampi, baked stuffed, and crunchy and a side of crab bisque) my wife absolutely loved this dish so much so she said she'll get it again next time we dine here. The crab bisque was the best she's had on the island. My mother in law ordered the Baked Stuff Shrimp (with seafood stuffing) she ordered this dish last time we dined here and she said it's still delicious. My father and sister in law ordered the Mahi Mahi with mango sauce. Both said the Mahi-mahi was tender and was a nice portion. All in all this is a great restaurant for anyone looking for seafood. All the fish is fresh and made to order.

My grandmother especially loved Timbers, and it has always been a must for at least one night during our vacations. She was very particular about her dining experiences. Very refined like me . The inside is pretty cute. The decor has lots of old wood much like the namesake. They have a fresh seafood l counter where you can purchase some of their magic. That is where I spotted some of the items I knew that I had to have. On my way to the bathroom I knew I was in for a treat. If you are a seafood aficionado like I am, you will not be disappointed. The food is incredibly fresh. They fly in Chilean sea bass every morning, and I had never experienced it truly fresh before, only frozen. It absolutely melted in my mouth. My loaded bake potato was a star on its own. I wanted another one. The stone crabs were amazing, and I highly recommend getting the larger ones. The creamy mustard dip was almost as good as mine. The calamari was stellar, and the smoked salmon belly was incredible with its perfect balance of capers and that sweet, salty, sour combination. I have to say, though, the warm bourbon pecan pie at the end of the meal was an experience all on its own. I could barely walk afterward. It was such a fabulous dining experience. Thank you for making my return so stellar. We haven't been able to visit for the past three years because the hurricane destroyed our place, but everything is back and better than ever. I look forward to my next dining adventure. To many more years of good food, good friends, and memories that make this adventure all the more better.
