The coconut caramel dark chocolate ice cream from Seemingly Overzealous at Camp North End was unreal Rich dark chocolate, subtle coconut, and little caramel notes that somehow all worked perfectly together. It felt indulgent without being overly sweet, and the texture was insanely creamy. One of those desserts that makes you immediately want another scoop. The staff are very friendly and will help you figure out the flavor you want! The art and the vibe inside the small ice cream shop is very cute and lively! read more

This is a cute shop in Camp North End. We were there on a very busy Saturday but there was just a short line for ice cream when we stopped in. The shop is very small, they have a good selection of flavors, and it is all dairy, egg, and gluten free. You honestly would never know! It tasted exactly how ice cream should. Great mouth feel, rich, but not sweet. We tried the chocolate with cookies and Oreo pieces and the mint chip. Very very tasty. Again, if they did not tell you this was dairy free, you could not tell at all. They offer tastes, you can get one or two scoops or waffle cones, or ice cream sandwiches, and I think you can ask for sprinkles. They have a friendly staff behind the counter. They are also cashless, so be sure to have a credit card here. I would definitely come back for another flavor, I was really wowed by this ice cream. If you are in Camp North End, stop in for a scoop. read more

Allergy heaven! Love that all of their options are gluten free. I went about 30 minutes before close and they were out of Cookie sandwiches and waffle cone crisps, so plan accordingly if you have your eye on those. There is a courtyard with shared seating outside. We lucked out with street parking nearby, but the parking deck is also close! read more

I come here almost once a week and I don't feel guilty because everything is egg, gluten and dairy free! I never feel gross after I eat this. Its very good and I love how they constantly change up the flavors! The flavors are usually fresh and somewhat healthy - like options with ginger or tumeric. It's just a really fun and refreshing treat! This place is usually pretty crowded - so definitely expect a wait. The shop is very tiny so don't expect to dine in. There is plenty of free parking at Camp North but be prepared to walk! Definitely worth the wait. read more

10/10 -- I don't know what's in the ice cream and I don't want to know lol all I know is that it tastes good. Such of a nice alternative for vegan and gluten free folks! The owners did a great job creating a whimsical environment. It's more than just ice cream, it's a cute little experience. And the ice cream sandwiches do not disappoint. Let the flavors surprise you. I'm usually not a blue ice cream type of person but the blue moon sammie is a personal fave read more

Seemingly Overzealous is a cute little icecream shop with some unique flavor offerings. I got a scoop of butter pecan and a scoop of carrot cake ice cream on a cone. The icecream was smooth and really yummy, the waffle cone was a bit too crunchy for my liking, but my friend loved that about the cone. . The shop was clean, the staff were patient and friendly and offered samples. read more

The ice cream was so good, I forgot to take a pic. Located at Camp North End. There was a long line, but it went fast and customer service was great. The inside is really small, so if there's a lot of people you will have to form a line outside. I feel its worth the wait. BlueMoon flavor is my favorite. Tastes like a blend of fruity pebbles and cotton candy. It's not to milky, and not overly sweet. Just the way I like it. The waffle cones were being made on the spot and all I can say is, it was the best waffle cone I have ever had. Extra crispy and the flavors linger in your mouth long after you've finished. Hmm mmh good. I highly recommend read more

So I'm not gonna lie I was pretty skeptical to try this ice cream because I saw dairy free gluten-free and immediately thought what kind of ice cream is going to satisfy my sweet tooth when you're taking away all the guilty pleasures, but it was actually pretty good. I had the "I need someone to feed" ice cream, which was comprised of brown sugar cinnamon. It pretty much taste like cinnamon toast crunch, but just an ice cream form. I had it on a waffle cone and it was such a nice treat after a long work day. Prices were not too crazy. They offer an array of other options which also have really cool creative names. I definitely can't wait to try some other flavors, but it's definitely worth the hype so next time I don't judge ice cream shop by its name or offerings. Definitely check them out for yourself! read more

Sooo good, it's definitely worth a try! This is inside Camp North End. Coming through Charlotte and had to make a pit stop to check out this spot. It's such a fun vibe indoors and the service was great. I wanted to try their mint chip and was offered a bit of a sample. So good and I loved that it is topped with a bit of a waffle cone chip because I ordered in the cup. Would be coming back. read more

Enjoyed a scoop of I Need People to Feed (?) (toffee and Cinnamon Toast Crunch) here on a hot hot summer afternoon! Arrived around 330pm and there was a steady line. Friendly service, generous with samples! A little expensive for a single scoop, but it's in a great area and gets the job done when the need to beat the heat hits!! A few seats inside and plenty of outdoor seating available. Would recommend! read more

You can barely tell it's dairy free. I had the mint and it was delicious. The ladies who served us were so nice and friendly. You can get samples. It's at camp north end, which is a cool atmosphere. We sat outside and there was a lot of spaces you can sit read more

I'm glad there isn't one of your stores in Southpark because I would be there everyday. I'm GF and DF. I'm in love with your product. You have knocked it out of the park. PS I'm a little afraid to ask about calories in a serving, I guess it's best to just enjoy. read more

Amazed that this ice cream (or technically, "non-dairy frozen dessert") is entirely dairy, egg, and gluten-free! For the amount of creaminess and flavor, I could have sworn I was eating plain ole ice cream. Conveniently located inside Camp North End (which has free 3-hour parking in the garage), Seemingly Overzealous is a cute scoop shop with brightly-colored décor and some seating both inside (bar stools against the windows) and outside (benches with a fun ice cream drip design). Upon entering, a friendly staff member asked if we'd visited before. No? OK well then you get the full spiel! First, go to the cash register. Let them know how many scoops you'd like, and pay. Next, slide over to the left, and try all the samples you'd like at the counter before making your final selection! And they weren't kidding: we were encouraged to try as many as we wanted, which was so nice when it seems like more and more ice cream shops are cutting down on samples or make you feel bad about wanting to try more flavors. Everything we tried was so tasty, and we ultimately went with 2 scoops: peach cobbler & brown sugar cinnamon. These went so well together! The staff explained that the peach cobbler is a new & improved recipe since they'd received feedback from customers that they wanted more peach, and it delivered! The brown sugar cinnamon was chock full o' flavor and tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Seemingly Overzealous is a dream for those with allergies/food restrictions -- and for those who just love great "non-dairy frozen dessert!" read more

Everything is better with ice cream + knowing that there isn't any dairy to make me regret the ice cream in the first place. I appreciate when flavors rotate. Ube cheesecake was my winner of the night and I can see how it was voted back by customers. I've been thinking about the next time I'd be back since the last time I was there. I guess that means I'll be there tomorrow.... Now to decide which flair to get. read more

Looking to cool off in this "Not Quite Summer" heat, then look no farther than Seemingly Overzealous! They have the most delicious flavors of ice cream, and everything is dairy, egg, and gluten-free! Healthy and tasty is a combo I can definitely get with. Located in Camp North End, it will definitely be a visit I'll make often when I'm visiting the QC. My boys and I were lucky they were open for Memorial Day. The owner and his daughter were the perfect host to our curious needs. We were able to sample flavors before deciding on our final selection. Oli was able to practice her first scoop with my selection, and she did an excellent job! I was afraid she was giving me too much and was going to be fired her first day on the job. But dad was pleasantly pleased as well. I went with Papercup Love Notes (coffee) + Easy to Please (vanilla). Darius had Is This My Life (tumeric, cinnamon, ginger, blk pepper, nutmeg, roasted coriander, and honey) + The Dinner Rule (peanut butter w/Oreos). DeAndre chose Never Tear Us Apart (butter pecan) + I Needed Someone to Feed (brown sugar, cinnamon, like cinnamon toast crunch milk). We were able to sample each others and I must say, they all were delicious! Looking forward to trying them again! read more

I cannot say enough great things about Seemingly Overzealous Ice Cream! As a big ice cream lover myself, I was worried about the overhype of this place but they rose to the challenge. Seemingly Overzealous provides dairy, egg, and gluten free ice cream making it inclusive for people with dietary constraints. They have a colorful and funky marketing style which makes the space fun and lively. Their shop in Camp North End is fairly small but the line is worth the delicious flavors! I got two scoops: chocolate with cookies and cream. I can't wait to try this businesses new location that recently opened in Plaza Midwood! read more

Friendly staff, samples offered. Pretty quick, in and out, about 12 or so flavors, most are pretty unique and a couple are common (chocolate, cookies and cream, etc). Sampled a Cinnamon Toast Crunch ice cream that was really good read more

I have been following them for awhile on Instagram. When showing a visiting family member around Camp North End, I remembered that they were there. We parked (thankfully right near SO) and made a beeline to get some ice cream. Upon entering, they gave us clear directions about the ordering process, which they have down to a science. Unlike most places, you pick your size and pay in advance. Then you choose your flavors. It seems counterintuitive but it actually works! When paying, you can choose to add on a 25 cent charge for sprinkles. If you opt for sprinkles, they give you a quarter that you use to purchase individually packaged sprinkles (chocolate or rainbow) from the vending machine near the door. We were so excited to see that all of the options were dairy-free, gluten-free, and egg-free. But honestly, you would never even know. And they had so many fun flavors with even better names! Everyone was happy with their choices. We will definitely be back! Pro-tip: 1 scoop may not seem like much, but the ice cream is pretty dense and filling! You would be surprised. read more

Seemingly Overzealous Ice Cream - Sweet treat to cool off on a hot day! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Ice cream is overly sweet for my taste. The flow/logistics of the service is ridiculous. The line start with ordering the ice cream. For first time customer, it's hard to order one without seeing what flavor are available to order (not everyone can scan to see their flavor), let alone sampling it. The poor logistics/flow of this tiny place makes it even congested. We will not come back here or recommend this place for the ice cream and service. read more

And we love the constant change of flavors that are "unconventional" for a typical icecream shop. The set up is "different" you pay first then you chose your flavor(s) and a small limited amount of toppings can be purchased at a gumball style machine. Icecream is always: Super creamy, and it comes with a little waffle cone chip. Service is always: Super Friendly read more

I love Seemingly Overzealous. I live around the corner & have been visiting since the weekend they opened. I don't normally gravitate towards non dairy ice cream but this one is oat milk based (I believe!) and so creamy you can't tell. They're always doing unique flavors so there's something new to try. I'm also a sucker for the branding, their shop is bright & colorful featuring different emotions. My favorite flavors are "Easy to Please" which is a vanilla that tastes kinda like lucky charms & "Grumpy & Lumpy" Ube. Tonight I tried the chocolate chip ube cookie sandwich & to be honest when I looked at the thin cookies I didn't have high hopes. But SO came through again, Great flavor & perfectly chewy. Long story short. There's a lot to love here, not the least of which is the wonderful staff. So stop by, eat a cone while taking in Camp North End views or grab a pint to go with your other treats. read more

TREAT YOURSELF My partner and I have been long customers of this amazing 100% egg, dairy, and gluten-free ice cream, which has completely transformed our dessert experience! As someone who is lactose intolerant, finding a non-dairy ice cream that matches the consistency of traditional dairy ice cream has been a challenge. This business has nailed it perfectly. Every flavor we've tried has been incredible, but the Orange Dreamboat and Lumpy and Grumpy are my absolute favorites. The Orange Dreamboat brings back childhood memories of eating orange creamsicles with its refreshing, citrusy burst that is both smooth and creamy. The Lumpy and Grumpy, which uses ube purple yam, offers a unique, delightful blend of flavors that keeps us coming back for more. OMG, it's so delicious! The owners and staff are amazing and super helpful, always making our visits enjoyable. Thank you for taking such good care of my gut with your delicious and thoughtful creations. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious and gut-friendly treat! read more

If I could give zero stars I would. When we came in , we weren't greeted at all. It wasn't busy (probably because we came around 9). Even though that's a clear sign of the poor customer service to come, I ignored it because I had been waiting to try this place for a while. I started looking at the flavors and within 15-20 seconds, I was suddenly no longer invisible and was rudely rushed away from the display case and to the register. I explained to the cashier that I needed to read the flavors (because there isn't a menu displayed) to know if there was anything I liked and for some reason, she couldn't wrap her brain around that logic. And I know scooping ice cream isn't likely a very fulfilling career but, her tone was borderline disgusting during the entire exchange as if she didn't want us to buy anything (I should've taken the hint). I even asked about the ice cream sandwiches but she said telling the flavors would be overwhelming and asked what flavor was I interested in as if it was possible for me to tell her that without looking at the flavors. She could've very easily listed the flavors of ice cream and the available cookie flavors (or the business could post them since the workers don't like for customers to look at the flavors). I just decided to get 2 scoops and I was very disappointed in the lack of flavor. So basically, all that trouble for nothing. To make things worse, the ice cream started melting almost immediately. It was a mess before I could make it to my car. It also didn't agree with my stomach so, b/w that and the quick melting, I'm going to assume that this particular batch wasn't kept at the proper temperature. A waste of time and money unfortunately. read more

Great to see Charlotte get a dairy free and gluten free ice cream shop. To start the location is beautiful and very bright and creative. I got the strawberry flavor at the time I can't remember the name of it, I think I'll need to go back to try again because it didn't quite stand out to me or I'm not sure if it was too sweet. But definitely will try again. One thing I didn't love was I felt the employee at the time was stingy with samples. He just seemed a little annoyed when my friend and I asked for them. Samples are such a fun part of ice cream shops that I hope they improve on that. They were low on sample spoons so maybe that was why but just something to note. read more

Gluten Free!! Vegan!! All the things.

Especially amazing for those of us used to "sitting this one out "while our friends or family enjoy their treat. This place sets the bar high not just for dairy free Ice cream, but all Ice cream. read more

The workers are always friendly & inviting. Anytime a new flavor drops, they do a great job at explaining the nuances in the flavor. My favorite flavors thus far are the Cant All Be Cookie (Cookies & Cream), Unnamed Experiment #7 (Ube), & Never Tear Us Apart (Butter Pecan). I also love that majority of the flavors are dairy & egg free without compromising on the creamy richness of ice cream. The inside design is well thought and they partnered with a local artist to paint their back wall. The playful theme pairs nicely with the ice cream shop brining youthful memories to mind. read more
