We stumbled across this place when looking for dessert options in Joplin. We did see one review…read moreprior to stopping by that made us wonder if the other reviews were up to date. Unfortunately, we found that the latest review was accurate, the others are not. It appears they renamed this place "Caroline's", possibly. There were not 30+ flavors of ice cream, and the few they did have sadly appeared freezer burned. The coffee set up looked nothing like earlier photos with tons of flavor options. Half the place is a small boutique? The employee was kind.

We have been here twice through the years and enjoyed it. Today, on our third visit, the place had…read morechanged drastically. Instead of candy and a large selection of ice cream, they had boutiques goods, zero candy, and only 8 flavors of ice cream. The ice cream tasted freezer burned. Our children were thirsty (it's almost 90 degrees out) and wanted cups of water to go along with their ice cream but they had no cups. We had to leave and go to a fast food restaurant to get them some water. Before we could leave, a worker rudely accused our five year old of putting his mouth on a notepad that was for sale. We were all watching him and multiple adults never saw him put the notepad anywhere near his mouth. All in all, a very disappointing experience. If you want a sweet treat, go somewhere else.

So ignore the only other review on here that's a 1 Star. General rule when rating a place is…read moreusually one star for service, one for prices, one for food quality, one for the how clean and nice the place is, and a 5th Star if you feel like the place is just overall great. One stars are for if the place fails at almost everything, or if the service is so rude and bad that you can't enjoy the place at all. Giving a place 1 star because they don't have your kind of ice cream is ridiculous. Ok rant over. As for this place. It's got a good selection of ice cream. I think it was about 12 flavors or so. I don't really expect every flavor on the planet in a small town or it wouldn't last. Unless you're super picky, It's got something for everyone. The service is super friendly, and prices are very fair. Multiple cone options / cup sizes. They sell banana splits, shakes, Italian sodas, root beer floats, all sorts of candies, taffy and more. The place is super clean and very very nicely decorated. Maybe more on the girly side, but I'm sure if you brought young boys to eat ice cream, they are not complaining the place had more of a girls room feel. Seems like a great place for a group of kids to go with parents at any time. Lots of little things to touch and get their hands on, so maybe not so great if you have a grabby kid under the age of 3 unless you want candy all over the store. . They do have crayons at each table though to help keep kids occupied. Overall nothing I could really complain about. When my kids good at school all week, it's a great place to reward her with.

The ice cream is made with butterfat and is rich and flavorful. Prices are comparable with other places including chains, but here you're getting much better quality and friendlier service.

They let us have samples which was very kind. I also tried a mango which was delicious! The whole street is filled with cool stores and the shop is at the end of the street or the beginning.

That's here to stay! And if you'd like to hear a very fun story, ask how they source their vanilla pods from a farm in Mexico, and NOT from a woman named Esperanza!!! lol - seriously. Just ask the owner. He's fabulous - even when we rolled in with a party of seven at 9:55pm, 5 minutes before closing!
