There it was, a bright and colorful storefront situated amongst a group of aromatic formal dining restaurants. It just so happened to be buy-one-get-one night, which is only on Tuesdays! I got the cookies and cream, my friend got the praline flavor and they were both absolutely delicious! I loved how the ice cream had lots of mix-ins and was frozen hard enough to not melt in our hands immediately. They serve the sandwiches in a lined paper wrap so even if things do get melty, it was easy to stay neat. We made a new friend in Stephanie who was (wo)manning the counter that night. She gave us great flavor recommendations and some ideas on what we can do during our next trip to St. Aug! Found a new favorite! Check out Peace Pie!!

I recently visited an ice cream shop and had an amazing experience, thanks to Ayla's exceptional customer service. From the moment I walked in, Ayla greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel welcome. She was incredibly patient as I took my time deciding which flavor to choose, offering samples and helpful suggestions based on my preferences. Ayla's knowledge about the different ice cream flavors and her enthusiasm for the products were evident. She went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience, even recommending some unique toppings that perfectly complemented my choice. Her friendly and attentive demeanor made the visit truly enjoyable. Overall, Ayla's outstanding customer service made my visit to the ice cream shop memorable. I highly recommend stopping by and experiencing her excellent service for yourself. You won't be disappointed! read more

Mayday Ice Cream - A Sweet Treat Near the Beach! If you're near A1A in St. Augustine, Mayday Ice Cream is a great spot to stop for a sweet treat! The ice cream was delicious, and the service was warm and welcoming, making the experience even better. What makes this location special is its proximity to the beach and its own unique vibe. It's the kind of place where you can grab a scoop of your favorite ice cream, relax, and enjoy a little sweetness after a day in the sun. Great ice cream, friendly service, and a fun atmosphere make Mayday Ice Cream worth a visit. We'll definitely be back for another scoop! read more

The location was clean and welcoming. The unique variety of flavors were refreshing. I tried the cacao nibs which were amazing. The ice cream was wonderful! Even better was the service provided by Palmer!! She really made the experience wonderful!! I'm confident she didn't stop smiling the entire time. Palmer recommended flavors and my daughter loved them. We will definitely be back- not only because of the tasty ice cream but also in hopes to see Palmer again! read more
