The place seemed to be older so the door was stuck and staff had to come struggle to open it. Inside is typical of ice-cream shop with counter and the cooler with different type of gelato/sorbet. They have variety of flavors and some interesting one like Dubai chocolate, mandarin and Maine blueberry. They do let you try if you ask so if you are not sure you can ask to try them. I ended up getting large just so i can try different flavors and it's also just $1 difference from each size. I ended up getting Belgian chocolate, peanut butter browny and chocolate chip affogato flavors. They were all very tasty. I was impressed by the Belgian chocolate as it was super rich chocolate flavor i was looking for a while. Service was good but the staff did struggle with the door and had issue with credit card reader too. Maybe should be more ready for customer when they open. Overall i still liked their gelato and would be a good stop for frozen treat in Newport.

It was evening - almost 9pm - and we'd just finished a walking tour with Ghost Tours of Newport. What did we want after traversing the cobble stone streets of Newport and paranormal investigating? Non-Dairy Ice Cream from Ben & Jerry's, that's what. We weren't going to make it in time to get to the one by Bannisters Wharf (the one we'd been frequenting during our trip to the coastal town), so Yelp pointed us to this location luckily. We got in before closing and there were still a bunch of people in line. When we got to the counter, we ordered a green cup to share of a macchiato flavor. So good! And the girls behind the counter were nice. I would recommend this ice cream shop if you're in this part of Newport and in need of some socially responsible and eco-friendly ice cream :)

It is great to see them in the summer on Thursday nights at Newport Film events. This post is to also feature the fabulous job they did at Salute to Summer event open to the public on the Navy Base. When you are at an offsite location it might be more difficult than normal location. This team that was there did a fantastic job with all the crowds. They were so friendly and the ice cream was delicious. I was impressed how great they did offsite since not your normal location. The stand was set up to serve many people and was well positioned even with other food trucks at the location. They handled it like pros. That day it was my birthday and nothing better than celebrating with Ben and Jerry ice cream and fireworks.

The cupcakes look amazing. Just fall flat on delivery for me.
