What I originally thought was an ice cream shop was a full candy shop. The ambiance is super happy and bright. They go through ebbs and flow of people. The ice cream line ranges from some cool flavors like Blue Moon- truly tastes like Fruit Loops and Elf Poop (so festive flavors for the season). When I think kids cup...I think of a 5 year old. I don't know a single person or even a couple who could finish a kids cup. For less than $6, it fed 3 grown adults and it still never got finished. It is about 5-6 scoops. It's a huge amount... We opted for the Elvis which is banana ice cream with peanut butter and honey. Absolutely delish. We worked with a delightful guy behind the counter who had the best patience and a good attitude. Overall I would be back in a heart beat. Bring friends to share. read more

I've gone here for practically my whole life, I went frequently when I was little and less frequently over time but every time I go it's a nostalgic blast! They've got such a large selection of candy there's stuff I didn't know existed, They've got mints, towels, games, figurines, and prints. They've got ice cream and tables indoors and outdoors. The atmosphere is very nice they've got decor everywhere making it feel like you're a kid in a candy store no matter how old you are! Not much service needed except for paying or getting ice cream but the place is always clean, nice and the staff is kind read more

I got the butter pecan child size bowl of ice cream and it was delicious and plentiful. It's the sweetest little place and the staff are friendly and helpful. I really loved my experience here and I'll be back.! read more

I am absolutely obsessed with this spot. I love ice cream, like need to eat it once a week and I'm sure I'm well on my way to diabetes based on ice cream consumption alone. I loved the flavors they offered and ended up with a chocolate lover's dream. I thoroughly enjoyed the ice cream here. I thought they had an excellent selection and the ice cream texture was perfectly creamy and smooth. I also love that they display art here! I definitely had to purchase a few prints. Overall, 12/10 recommend for ice cream and shopping! Get your butt in here! read more

Ice cream! So good here. Lots of ice cream choices ranging from classic to innovative flavors. Ask the serve for their recommendations and also what is popular. On this trip we ordered a medium size ice cream which you can pick two flavors. We had the green tea lemon and the butterscotch peanut butter. Both were good and hit the spot. The store also sells many varieties of candies. Something for everyone here. read more

Downtown Longmont has so many fun places and Scrumptious is one! The candy is terribly old though. I'm afraid this means there isn't a lot of patronage which is sad. The people who work here are very nice. The store is not cluttered and there are lots of fun novelty items to buy. It's a great place to shop for stocking stuffers! read more

The ice cream is so creamy and flavorful. The staff is very friendly and service sizes are massive! All you need is a kids cup! I also love walking around the store and checking out all their merch while I enjoy my ice cream. I see something new every time! read more

Scrumptious - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

This place was absolutely amazing 10 years ago. I loved meeting the owner and his mom one day when we were there, the ice cream was amazing, the ambience felt like quaint, safe, small town America. We had a birthday there and felt welcome and like our money was well spent. We returned several more times that summer for similar experiences. We decided to meet back there all these years later and what a shock. The staff was sarcastic and condescending, the prices were crazy insane. More than what we had just paid to go out to lunch nearby. The music was on so loud that we could not have a conversation inside without shouting. And going outside--whoever decided that black metal patio furniture with no umbrellas or shade, facing south on the sidewalk in the blistering sun was they best option for them--they don't care about their customers, and they don't understand ice cream. My uncle told one of the kids, "Quick, finish your soup." To add insult to injury, it is a standard offering across the country in most ice cream parlors to offer cups/water dispenser for patrons to get a cup of free water, but here you will pay an 833% markup for a 12 cent bottle of Kirkland water. Explained to you in a smirky, self-satisfied way. The service also was incredibly stressful; we were the only people in line getting ice cream, but the staff was rushing us, interrupting us and so impatient, even though we had little kids with us and elderly people who all wanted to look at the ice cream in the case (...isn't that why it's there?) and see what was available. Again: no one in line behind us. Lastly, it's just gross and in poor taste to have a business that is so clearly aimed at families and kids, just to be so jam-packed full of merchandise featuring expletives and crude humor. Scrumptious or Spencer's Gifts?? Gross. Overall, Scrumptious provided a big drop in customer experience and a big hike in the price from what they used to be. We won't be back. read more

Good sized scoops. Plenty of choices. Helpful staff. We really liked the coffee cake ice cream; I had mine with coffee ice cream. My son also enjoyed the "Bar None" maple ice cream and my husband enjoyed the Blackout with mint choco chip. read more

The service was great but the ice cream is flavorless and uninspired. Wide variety that all tastes the same.

Loved the variety of flavors and the overall atmosphere. The employees are amazingly kind and super fun! The ambiance was incredible and I LOVE all of the artwork!!! Definitely recommend coming here, and the employees handled a large crowd with excellence!!! read more

This is my #1 place for exotic & rare candy, a rotating cast of delicious ice cream flavors served in way too generous serving sizes, as well as moderately priced comic book & movie art. read more

Stopped here after dinner with the family for some ice cream. Never been here before and this is a cross between an old school candy store and ice cream shop. Although this doesn't have tons of different flavors the ice cream is really good and your get a lot for your money, two adults could split a medium cup easily if not a small one. I'd say the only negative is there aren't any toppings to add but to be fair like I said the ice cream can stand on its own. Staff was friendly and the store itself is fun with old candies and some cool hand drawn artwork on the walls for purchase. Overall nice little spot for ice cream. read more

Such a fun candy store! I didn't expect the old fashion jersey bars, the Harry Potter chocolate wands, and so many other great candy finds! Next we took to the counter and tried some ice cream! I was in the mood for something way out of the box, so i tried the gummy bear ice cream. I believe it was made from puréed raspberry or some berry. It was purple and delicious and i loved the pieces of gummy bears! Glad i went to this place! It's a little gem! read more

Cute sweets shop in downtown Longmont, Scrumptious is a kid's paradise with a variety of candy and ice cream... Anyone with a sweet tooth would love this place. Not only does it have good ice cream, the store décor itself is eye candy with various displays of lollipops, jelly bellies, chocolates, and other fun and nostalgic candy from your childhood. There are also some humorous toys, gag gifts, and nifty items that will bring smiles to all. Aside from traditional ice cream flavors, Scrumptious also has seasonal and fun combos, like Elvis (banana and peanut butter), Santa's Breath (mint, chocolate, and rum), and eggnog. It's a treat coming here! read more

Huge servings for the price! The flavors were interesting but delicious, and service was great!

Oh my god...I feel like I should give up my Elite badge and delete the Yelp app from my phone. We have been coming to this place for over a year and I am only now getting around to rating this place?! WTF is wrong with me?! Scrumptious is to Ice Cream what the Louvre is to Art. They don't just make ice cream, or serve ice cream, they create new sensory experiences and serve a little scoop of joy and goodness to this world. The flavors are unique and eclectic and mind blowingly good. I had to stop sampling them because I loved every single one (dead serious...I have not tried a flavor I disliked and that includes sherbet which I typically hate). I now just ask the staff what their "current" (you have to qualify it as "current". LOL) favorite flavor is and go with that without question. They have never steered me wrong. And I honestly don't know which is better...the ice cream or the service. We have never had anything less than amazing service from each and every person who works there. And they don't all look like they would be engaging and considerate. They must just love working there that much because they are all awesomely courteous and helpful. And as if the ice cream and service were not amazing enough...Scrumptious introduced us to our new favorite artist, Kevin Eslinger! We now have around 30 of his awesome prints. Scrumptious has made my life more enjoyable in every way! read more

Now, I am not an ice cream person. I'm all about cake, sugar cookies, and piles of buttercream frosting, and I usually hate when my sugary fat is distracted from by annoyingly cold temperatures. But! Scrumptious ice cream is not like other ice creams. Scrumptious is an ice cream experience that I'd actually happily have for dessert again and again. It is seriously some of the richest and creamiest stuff around, with a texture rivaling the best gelatos and a richness that (almost) makes me perfectly okay with the lack of nearby cupcakeries (we like what we like, okay?). That said, the rotating flavors are unassuming and utterly delightful. Pralines and cream, coffee brownie, blueberry parfait, chocolate whiskey - every one is wonderfully executed and, occasionally, a sweet surprise. And kudos to some of the chocolate-based ones for actually being gloriously dark and bittersweet - FINALLY someone gets that right. I look forward to trying many more things at Scrumptious, even if I get stuck in line behind the extended Derpington Family and their insistence on sampling every flavor (totally never happens...and yes, you can try them if you're afraid to commit!). P.S. - They also have the elusive, Midwestern blue moon flavor! read more

Every kind of candy you could ever imagine and then some even had crickets for my friend from Thailand. Fun place to take my grandson read more

Yum!!! Love the cherry ice cream!! Service was great - quick and friendly! Love supporting local businesses!

This is the perfect main street ice cream joint! They are missing absolutely nothing. Everything sourced and made local and the ice cream is out of this world delicious. Their ice cream sandwich cookies come from Great Harvest Bread Co and are the perfect compliment to their ice cream. And they have sooooo many flavors with crazy combinations like the Elvis or Zagonut. Which I think it made from one of the 1,000s of candies they have in store. All the throw back candies from the 50s to now. Every candy you could ever thing of. Full wall of Jelly Bellys and sour sticks. I mean it's really just a sugar rush dream land. The atmosphere is lively and fun and they have plenty of seating both indoor and out. We bought some of the dueling jelly beans and had the night of our lives! And don't let me forget the serving size. This is the best value for your money going. There is no way I could finish a small. For those of you who are very affected by ice cream shops that skimp, that is NOT this place. Easily one of my favorite places in Longmont. Forget Longmont, one of my favorite places in Colorado. read more

If you like your ice cream to taste super sugary sweet, then this is your place. My 5-year-old loves it. She would also be happy munching on sugar cubes. I would prefer my ice cream to have real flavor, and on this front I don't think Scrumptious delivers. I'm also a bit put off by the crazy bright colors of some of their flavors. Mint Chip is positively neon. I'm rounding up because it is also a huge candy shop, the type that kids dream about. That serves a niche that I'm not particularly excited about but again, my 5-year-old definitely is. read more

Scrumptious - Chocolate birthday cake ice cream. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

This store is wonderful! Not only do they have delicious ice cream (and many many choices each day) but they have every type of candy you can imagine. The store has an old fashioned candy store feel with everything but a old bar to eat at. The staff was very knowledgeable about the products they carry and full of suggestions. Highly recommend getting all your stocking stuffer candy here! read more

Pretty good ice cream and fun overall vibe. The art on the walls is unique & pop culture themed. Besides the ice cream, they have an extensive variety of novelty chocolates and candies. HOWEVER. The customer service at Scrumptious has become extremely poor. The first time we came in about 8 months ago, the young man serving us was generous with samples and gave us a great experience. He suggested flavors and expanded our ice cream knowledge. Since then, the quality of service has steadily declined. One girl in particular (usually has long nails in bright colors) is rude and stingy with samples; she clearly expresses her lack of interest in being there. I get that serving ice cream may not be the most exciting job, but that's just the point: the job is not only to serve ice cream, but also to create a positive experience for customers. It also doesn't help that the store clearly communicates their new, 2-sample limit multiple times. Seems like a quick way to save them cost in the short term, but will likely cost them customers in the long term due to poor customer service. Overall, I really hope to see this place continue to succeed. It's a sweet hallmark of the community; I just hope they don't fall down the slippery slope of cutting costs at the expense of customer experience. read more

Nice little homemade ice cream shop here, got a limited selection of flavors. However as uninspiring that sounds, their ice cream is top notch, not too sweet, just how I like it. The rest of the store is a retro looking candy shop. A warning though, the default kiddie size should definitely not be fed to kids, is probably too big for most grown ups too. read more

The ice cream here is delicious, but the best part of this store is all of the amazing, timeless, candy! The ambiance on Main Street is incredible. Perfect place to pick up a little gift, stuff stockings, or treat yourself to some movie night snacks! read more

We stopped in for ice cream, and it was fine. But the smell in this place was just odd. We couldn't figure it out, and we went outside to eat our ice cream. The ice cream was fine. Not the worst. Not the best. Mediocre. I was surprised that kid serving was two large scoops. And a little surprised that when I said I'd prefer just one scoop the clerk said she'd "have to charge me for both," which is funny because I didn't ask for a discount AND you're actually increasing your margin by 50 percent. Fine. But there was certainly a cooler way to say it. Unlikely we will be back. Smell! read more

Their options are overpriced and their customer service is rude.

Scrumptious is the best place to get ice cream in Longmont, hands down. They offer fantastic flavor combinations like Butterfinger toffee, cookie monster (blue moon with Oreos and cookie dough), happy hippie (granola and honey), Elvis (some combination of peanut butter and banana), and so many others that it's hard to list them all. They also have a great selection of candy, from regional to international, modern to retro. It's a great place to wander around, and a better place to chill with a scoop of your favorite flavor or two. read more

This place is a treat! Very imaginative ice cream flavors (I had a scoop of "Elvis") and a nice variety of candy an novelty items. The price is good, service fast and friendly. read more

I would give this place 5 stars because I love everything about it but the only reason it's losing a star for me is for the personal hygiene, or should I say lack of, that I witnessed today. I have worked in restaurants since I was 17 and know that if you serve food you can't have any exposed hair... hence hair nets. The female serving us our ice cream today was dressed in a very flattering halter top dress, but when she raised her arms up I was stunned!!!! I am all for free expression and women empowerment but this just crossed the line for me... if men should have to wear shirt that cover their armpit hair women should too. read more

This is the best place to get an ice cream cone or cup! All made in the store. Great people behind the counter, too. The pug sculpture out front is fun; the tables are typical ice cream shop style! And the rest of the store - with the nostalgic candy - is fascinating and fun. I highly recommend this shop. read more

Scrumptious - a group of people sitting at a table - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

It was a hot day when all you want is ice cream. It was too expensive for too poor of quality of ice cream. My girlfriend and I tried different flavors and both were disappointing, one of the two flavors was recommended by an employee as well. For the cost you would think they would maybe make their own waffle cones, but nope. I am surprised this place is in business. read more

I visited the store today with my granddaughter. We were very excited to have a treat together. She chose candy versus ice cream. Great selection of fun hard to find candy. BUT, unfortunately we will not be able to visit the store again. The sock apparel at the store had very vulgar and distasteful sayings on them! I could not believer what I saw, every cuss words imaginable. F#@%, SH&%@ etc. etc. I was shocked! At a candy/ice cream store! Good grief... children and families will predominantly be the clientele! The sock display was right next to the Frozen II candy display. I would love to visit again because the store was cute and had a vintage theme. Absolutely will not return until this merchandise is not visible to young eyes!! read more

Not a bunch of flavors to choose from but that did push me to try a new flavor (Oatmeal Cookie) overall it was really solid. Got it in a cake cone. Should have tried the Elvis if I went back. read more

I'm not writing about the ice cream we had today, because it was good. I'm writing about the attitude of one of the workers we encountered. A mom and her little son entered the store the same time my family did. They both didn't have masks on and the gal behind the counter told them they weren't allowed to enter the store without it. Ok, they got that so we offered to get the ice cream for her boy while they waited by the door. When I asked why they wouldn't have spare masks for their customers, she replied, "our GM said they were too expensive." So my husband said, "wouldn't you rather get cheap masks than to turn away their business?" The gal replied, "I'm the GM and I know how to run this business." Ok, really? You'd turn away customers who would pay at least $4 for a kiddo cup of ice cream rather than to give a 20 cent mask... read more

Well, the time has come to bump back my previous 2-year-standing 4-star review...to 2 stars. Let's dive into why. My last two experiences at Scrumptious were less than awesome, I'm sorry to say. Every business has to have their rules, I get it. I really do. But the recent switch to a limit of TWO TASTERS PER PERSON?! Guys, no. Not when you have so many options, many of them unique and interesting (one of the reasons we LOVE YOU!). But what if the Mint Chip is too minty, then the Salted Caramel Cone has an off putting soggy-cone texture? That's my TWO! Seriously?! I want to try the exciting stuff but not everything is a homerun. Honestly, I'm apt to buy less ice cream with rules like this. I'll end up getting something boring - strawberry? - and just one scoop...which by default means less money for you. I'm just not a gambler. Maybe people were abusing the tasters. Sure, I could see that. In my mind, it just part of the biz. Go to Little Man or Sweet Cow or Sweet Action...Haagen-Dazs, Ben & Jerry's... you can try as many flavors as you want. I'd say the ones who abuse it are few and far between, yet the rest of us miss out on the love. Maybe limit it to something - four? Five? But don't limit it to two. And I gotta ask, is one of your rules also "Employees must not smile" or "No fun allowed"? Because my last two visits, two different people, zero personality. Not even a little friendly. You are in the business of ice cream and candy!! Come on. Customer service in general. You can do better. You know, come to think of it, maybe this last Scrumptious employee was unfriendly because she was also upset about the two taster rule...hmmm. read more

Good ol' Longmont doesn't have many hidden gems, but this is definitely one of them. It is a family favorite to get a sweet treat on hot summer nights. Warning: The portions are GIANT!!! My mom got a kid's size and it looked like a medium, seriously maybe even a large. It reminded me of that Parks & Rec episode where they have an obesity problem and their "child size soda" is "roughly the size of a small child" haha. I split an ice cream sandwich with my sister and really enjoyed it! My only complaint is that the cookies are always hard for some reason. My sister broke her fork trying to cut off a piece...I wish they were more chewy! But, it is awesome they let you "customize" to an extent. We had two different kinds of ice cream in our sandwich and I'm pretty sure they will let you do as many as you want. Come here with a big sweet tooth and you will not be disappointed! read more
