Great flavors/ variety, homemade whipped cream and some of the best ice cream pies. Location is small but generally never too crowded.

Gorgeous case of ice cream cakes!

Covid-19 era review: normally Praline's is a cute little ice cream cafe with a shiny glass cases of ice cream and a cake display case. Fifty flavors (eat your heart out, 31 flavors), not including their soft-serves, might mean tough decision making, but the menu can be seen ahead of time on the website. Covid-era, the cafe is now a corral allowing five people in at a time, but the shiny case of ice cream cakes remains, and now-masked employees remain friendly. The reason you came, those fifty glorious ice cream flavors? They all appeared to be there, but the chairs parked along the case keep away hand and face prints if the young (or young at heart). Tough decision have not been impeded by Covid, so I recommend the Lemon Pie any time of year. Their sorbets are all excellent (though I haven't tried Watermelon Sherbert cause the different spelling throws me off, not it's fault), and White Russian is awesome as a scoop or shake. Good old Oreo and Brownie Chip help fix a bad day. Toppings and cones, waffle included, mean decision-making situation remains unimproved. One added bonus is that Praline's is behind Veterans Memorial Park (walking trails), and there are sidewalks along Farmington Avenue and Lower Lane--plenty of exercise opportunities after the frozen dessert of your choice.

Small & simple ice-cream spot inside of a strip-mall that has a ton of flavors. Have both hard and soft-serve ice cream, but it looks like they only have the basic flavors of soft serve. They also have ice cream cakes & pies Home-made waffle cone that was solid, but it was chewy on the bottom which was weird 7/10

It was hot and there was a constant business w customers every 5 minutes for this hole in the wall ice cream shop. I had the butter pecan which was nice and creamy. They also sell ice cream cakes. Prices here are decent and you get two scoops when you order the single scoop!

Nice little ice cream shop with a good selection of flavors. I only ordered a tiny cup of the coconut bar ice cream today (mainly because I stuffed myself at Taino Smokehouse in Middletown earlier), my wife had a 2 scoops cup of toasted almond and butter chip "something" (she can't remember and she didn't share). Ice cream was very good, high quality. We'd definitely stop back again if we are in the area. A strong 4 Star rating.

Pralines & cream on top and pumpkin ginger snap on the bottom! So good!
Melissa R.

Still good flavors but seriously? Besides the half I ate this is what two scoops look like? For the price I expected more. It was like 1/4 cup of each flavor....

PB Explosion with chocolate soft-serve!  Best value on the menu!

The more I go here, the more I love this place! I get either the chocolate soft-serve cherry-dipped cone or the peanut butter flurrie. My husband has ordered a coke float and I want to try a ice cream soda; any choice of ice cream plus syrup and seltzer. Compared to the Dairy Queen, this place is reasonably priced!

Lacroix’s Homemade Ice Cream - The most delicious s'mores and black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream

Lacroix’s Homemade Ice Cream

4.7(51 reviews)

Don't judge the ice cream by the store front. It just reads "ice cream" and next to an indoor…read moresports complex and a restaurant in an industrial looking store front, it would be easy to dismiss. Don't. This is excellent home made ice cream that has just enough creative flavors to satisfy the curious but has established the standards with a high quality to draw the purists. I loved my mint Oreo ice cream and cookie dough flavor too. The s'mores was not overwhelmingly sweet and had the right mix of marshmallow, graham cracker and chocolate. Service was quick and friendly. Seating is fine outside but we saw a lot of people eating in their cars. Still loved this place. Big thumbs up.

Pulled into the old Marlin Rockwell industrial site, converted to small businesses…read more Be careful of potholes when you pull in, and the layout is a little different. On the far right of the old conversion of the building, sits Lacroix's ice cream shop When I parked in front of the building, there were no cars and looked closed, even walking up to the building. There's a small "open" sign displayed in the window, but with the dark tinted windows and doors, it looked closed. Checking the sign showed that it was open, closed on Mondays. I pulled on the door and....oh my goodness the place was open! Surprise! Greeted warmly by the staff, a quick look at the menu and I ordered one scoop of black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream, and one scoop of S'mores As my two scoops of ice cream was being prepared, the nice young lady at the front rang me up. It was a little over six dollars for the two scoops plus I left a 20% tip so I'm thinking this was some around eight bucks. They do take tap and credit card pay. Once I received my ice cream order, I proceeded outside to sit at one of the picnic tables on the right hand side of the business This little area is interesting, as it was at one time an industrial manufacturing facility, and the owners don't seem to be trying to make it welcoming. So this business installed a few picnic tables and flower boxes, who h made it somewhat inviting. But I'm still sitting in the parking lot. The s'mores ice cream was so creamy, marshmallow based with a lovely creamy, delightful, vanilla ice cream, graham crackers and pieces of chocolate chips added. This choice, as I was told, is of the more popular choices . I would strongly suggest trying this flavor out. Now, the black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream was some of the best I ever had. So creamy, so raspberry, so chocolate, so sweet! Plus, I loved how the s'mores melted into this flavor, making a wonderful combination in that cup. This place is a great destination if you want ice cream in Plainville. I just wish it was in a better location. As I was sitting there eating my ice cream, the place did start to fill up with guests I don't like the plaza location that it sits in, it seems a little too industrial and not welcoming. I didn't like that the place looked closed. Maybe a lighted open sign would work better. I didn't like the perceived snap from the manager, when I said, the place looked closed when I walked in the place. He was argumentative to a point. I loved the ice cream. Homemade and on point, some of the best in central Connecticut. I love the way the inside was decorated, and the easy to read wall menu I'll come back. Hopefully I can see a nice flashing or illuminated "open" sign in the window. I think that would benefit the business a lot.

Had seen the bright orange colors from the street and heard about the process of Nitro ice cream…read morebut I finally had the opportunity to stop in. Well...Not sure why I waited so long. Probably one of the coolest ice cream experiences that I've had. For those who don't know, Nitro Cream & Crumbz makes there ice cream for you on the spot using Liquid Nitrogen blenders. It essentially freezes the mix on the spot. A cool process that yields much creamier ice cream (that I read and in person confirmed). This isn't just your typical ice cream scoop and plop experience. During the experience, cool smoke from the liquid nitrogen fills the area as they stir your selected ice cream flavor. The process of the employees adding the ingredients is done all within your line of sight for a full investment into your delicious treat. The flavors are FUN and the end result is visually appealing to eat. I myself got the HOLY CANNOLI which had Riccota vanilla ice cream, crushed cannoli shell, dark chocolate and white chocolate chips wrapped in a spongy bubble waffle. It was delicious and creamy (as you hope from doing your homework on Liquid Nitrogen ice cream ). The staff were extremely friendly, bubbly even and helped explain popular options for a first time Nitro ice cream eater. Best part of this whole thing is having so many other great flavors left to try on my next trip. Highly recommend and prices are VERY reasonable (some might argue a little low for the experience you get).

We fell off the nitro ice cream kick for a while, but this spot just restored our love for it!…read moreGreat quality for both the ice cream itself and the bubble waffle cones. They had creative choices on the menu with plenty of toppings, and the cookies were fantastic too. Such a great treat while we were in Middletown, and we look forward to coming back!

We were having dinner in the area so why not stop by for dessert right?…read more Well it was a warm evening and there were a lot of kids outside, the line was as long and we didn't mind until we got inside. We were sad to see the poor girl pretty much running the place by herself and it seemed she was very unhappy ( I dont blame her). We only got ice cream for my daughter because ai didn't want to wait anymore . The place was nice but I think it needs more color.

I really enjoyed my visit to Salem Valley Scoop Shop. The shop itself is fairly standard/plain…read moredecor wise, but a bit larger than the average one and comfortable. It was empty at 2 o'clock on a Wednesday afternoon, but someone was ready to help me right away. I needed a minute to decide from their impressive selection of creative flavors, ultimately passing on things like coffee cookie dough & tagalong. The most notable part for me is that they offer a frozen flight for only $7 that is 4 small scoops, a perfect way to try a few different flavors without having to fill up. I hate when you have to spend more to buy extra ice cream you don't want just to get a second or third flavor. I chose the key lime pie, cow tracks, pb & j, and Dubai. The latter was an easy favorite. I appreciated the inclusion of the katafi. I liked all 4, I would just say pb & j was an easy last place. It didn't have as strong a flavor as the others. I wasn't personally as wowed as many foodie friends are, but I did really enjoyed my ice cream. It wasn't overly heavy either, which was great. So I do look forward to going back and trying more!
