    Pricey, But Worth It for the Flavor and Vibe The ice cream was delicious super creamy and packed with flavor. Definitely hit the spot! It was a bit on the pricey side, which is the only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars. The staff were two young teens who brought a lot of energy and spunk to the experience. They were fun, upbeat, and added a great vibe to the visit. All in all, a tasty treat with a lively little team behind the counter!

    While staying at a nearby hotel we got a hankering for some ice cream and found this place on Yelp. The parking lot was pretty filled, mostly by adjacent restaurants that share the lot, but we found a stall in the back 40. The two employees working inside were quite friendly and offered us taste tests of the assortment of ice creams they had displayed. The interior was clean and organized. We both elected to try the 6-pack, smaller scoops on a tray. Some we tried were fantastic and others were just so-so. We were provided a frequent customer card, which they stamped, and informed that there were Mayday Ice Cream franchises across Central Florida. We may use the card down the road, but I can't see us filling it up anytime soon to get that free one in the end. We'll see. Overall the ice cream was good, but not necessarily great.

    I stopped by Mayday after a Mexican dinner n cut door. Found an amazing ice cream flavor called Lavender Melange. It was truly amazing. It cleansed my palate after the flavorful dinner. It's been a while since I've visited Mayday. Service was great & ambiance was relaxed, though busy. Sorry forgot to take photos. Ice cream looked like it was vanilla. I know I'll be back just for the Lavender sweetness.

    Interesting and delicious ice cream options in a great location in the historic San Marco. Despite that I was unsure which flavor to have and had to try a lot of them, the service was very kind and wanted me to have a great experience. I will definitely come more often, the place offers a lot a light and is very inviting.

    This Mayday Ice Cream location is in San Marco and you can't miss it! I spotted this biz when we were visiting Aardolf Brewing Company and I knew I had to stop by. I always get ice cream when it's cold so it was kismet that we were right by here. Parking was easy with a lot in the back. This location has a cool architecture, it kind of looks like a lil house on its own. We were able to sample some flavors and I ended up sharing a small scoop with my partner. I got my usual- the aviator with their homemade sprinkles. A great Mayday location!

    Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie with a Galette
    Kathryn G.

    A creative, cutesy little ice cream shop in San Marco? Yes, please! Stopped in on a Thursday night and saw lots of people enjoying Mayday both inside and outside. Shoutout to the one girl working, she managed to not rush anyone and always served up a smile. I felt very welcomed and didn't mind the 10 minute wait to order at all for this reason. I tried the Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie ($5.75 for a scoop) and oh was it good. It managed to strike the perfect chord between sweet and warm, and I was very happy with my choice. They also let you try samples too if you're stuck between a few flavors! Also, the sprinkles and galettes (like a waffle cone cookie almost) are free!!! My only recommendation is that there be a flavor card for each kind of ice cream, because there were plenty with no name and I wasn't sure what they even were. The sweet employee asked if we had been before and gave us a punch card when we said we had not. After a certain amount of purchases, you can get any scoop-able ice creams for free, including their flight of 6 mini scoops! Definitely will be back and craving it now after writing this review!

    This a wonderful little neighborhood shop. The perfect place to stop with the kids for an after school treat. The employees are always pleasant and you are able to sample as many flavors as you'd like. It's bright and clean inside and outside there's a quaint brick courtyard with plenty of seating and room for the kids to run around a bit after their ice cream. They have an excellent assortment of flavors that's sure to please even the most discriminating palate.

    Delicious ice cream with homemade sprinkles, sugar cones, waffle cones & more! Has a wide variety of ice cream, including dairy free and liquor infused (21+ only). Their services always excellent and the establishment is always clean. They have an outdoor pavilion to sit at or you can eat indoors.

    My friend and I stopped here for dessert one evening and I'm so glad we did! The shop is super cute, with lots of ice cream esc decor. It also smells sweet and sugary time you hit the door, super enticing! I tried the blueberry toast crunch and it was very creamy and delish. I always just get one scoop and it was a nice serving size. The woman behind the counter was quite nice and patient as we tried a few flavors bedroom picking our fav. Looking forward to another visit the next time I'm in town.

    Whenever I travel I have to try ice cream shoppes that we don't have at home. Mayday did not disappoint. There were so many flavors to choose from - and they let you sample them because it's that hard to decide! I was even more impressed when I discovered that an ice cream flight was an option so I didn't have to choose! I ended up with a few booze flavors and some family friendly options. I was dreamy about this the remainder of the trip.

    Just recently tried out Mayday in San Marco and really enjoyed! I was pleasantly surprised at both the number of original and staple flavors, as well as seasonal ones. The staff was kind in letting us try out as many samples as we wanted (which we took advantage of), and gave us generous helpings! The ambiance too was inviting, although it's a chain, it still has that small ice cream shop vibe which was fun - so certainly recommend!

    I dont have much a of a sweet tooth for candy or baked goods... but for ice cream, thats a different story. I do not go out for ice cream often, so when i do, i splurge. I went with the 6 mini scoop flight. I cannot recall all the flavors, but some of the highlights were the banana pudding, queen salted caramel, coffee and donuts, cookie crush, parent trap and bourbon pecan. It was just delicious. Service was excellent. Unlimited sampling ;). Will be back again in the future.

    Oh damn it's so good.

The shop was completely empty when we arrived, so there was no reason for us to feel rushed. However, the employee hurried us through placing our orders. One person in our group was in the restroom and hadn't had a chance to decide what they wanted yet, and the employee was very short and impatient with us. When we asked to sample one of the ice cream flavors, she simply responded, "Okay," and came across as unfriendly and annoyed. While we were ordering, another customer came in, and we noticed the employee spoke to them with the same impatient attitude, so it didn't seem like it was just our group. The biggest issue came when the last person in our group ordered a sorbet. It was frozen so solid that it was impossible to scoop or eat. We let the employee know, and she said she would "soften it," which apparently meant microwaving it. She brought it back, but it was still hard as a rock and still wasn't edible. Unfortunately, the customer service overshadowed the visit. A friendly attitude and serving products that are ready to eat go a long way. We hope this location improves both its service and the quality of the experience for future customers.

Of course, we had to end the evening with ice cream, so we purposely made our way to Dreamette. The line was long, which is always a good sign, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The menu has so many tempting options that I had a hard time deciding. Thankfully, the wonderful Mari came to the rescue! I asked about their bread puddings, and she recommended the pecan bread pudding, telling me it's made fresh from Biscotti's (if I remember correctly). That was all I needed to hear. Even though I was completely stuffed from dinner, I somehow managed to eat every last bite. It was rich, warm, buttery, and absolutely decadent. My husband took Mari's recommendation and ordered a vanilla mix-in with cookie dough and waffle cone pieces blended throughout instead of just a waffle bowl. He loved it and said the blended waffle cone added the perfect crunch in every bite. Now I'm wondering where the closest Dreamette is to us because this definitely won't be our last visit! Trust me, the line may look long, but it's absolutely worth the wait. Tip: If you go, don't be afraid to ask for recommendations. Mari steered us toward two fantastic choices, and we couldn't have been happier.
