    Please run to this place!!! This ice cream is delicious. Made with fresh ingredients! The owner is so sweet and kind. Very welcoming place! I will be returning. Parking is not bad, plenty of street parking. Great small business!!

    Fellow big backingtons... Check out Sydney's Ice Creams sampler tray for $12 and thank me later. This ice cream is so freaking good and the owner is even better. I always receive such sweet customer service when I visit with my family. They have a revolving menu so you'll always be in for a surprise. I love so many of the flavors which makes it kinda hard to choice a favorite flavor. They also have at least one vegan option. Overall, you can go wrong with any of these flavorful, textured ice creams (typically each flavors has some form of chunk in it such as cookies, biscuits, fruit etc). The place is small but it does offer a small space in the front for about 3 people to sit. Otherwise, it's more of a cute carryout/boutique ice cream shop. Parking can be busy on Belair road but I typically find street parking immediately in front of the shop. I highly recommend this business as a specialty dessert shop and small black owned business. P.s. I noticed there was a cute pink truck outside of the shop one day. I think they may be expanding to have a mobile ice cream truck or perhaps a rental for parties/events. Anywho, give them a visit. You won't be disappointed! Also, get the rewards card.

    Banana pudding and pineapple upside down was awesome.

    Walk up the steps to Great natural homemade flavors. Will be back to try ice cream sandwiches! Tried banana pudding and upside down cake. Ring the doorbell if the door is locked! You can sample flavors and split scoops!

    It shares a location with Arcola, a quaint cafe - I'm mentioning this because you might miss it driving by.

Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

    I was excited to try this place out. The positive is that the service was very friendly. The staff…read morewent out of their way to treat us well and were so kind to our kids. The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.

I also prefer stuffed doughnuts (like a good Boston cream, etc) but they don't have many options for those. Instead it seems they prefer to put a dollop of the cream in the hole on top. I tried the cookies and cream and the cream cheese in the middle was odd.. it had a stretchy consistency. I like their Cinnamon Toast Crunch one, that one is probably my favorite. They're good and I love the variety but I've had better doughnuts.

There were only 2 people working, so there were a bunch of people waiting for their orders and service was slow. One person was at the cashier, the other was packing doughnuts, making breakfast sandwiches, and the coffees. We waited 5 minutes in line and then another 10-15 minutes for them to pack our 4 donuts. I wanted to get a sandwich but figured the wait was too long. On to the donuts - I liked the blueberry basil and blackberry lime donuts. The blueberry basil flavor wasn't super strong but it was well balanced. The blackberry lime was my favorite - sweet and a little tart. The crobar (croissant-donut) texture was awesome but I did not rally taste the cranberry or orange advertised. The buttercream frosting on top was sickeningly sweet so ended up scraping that off...finally the coffee donut. Not my favorite but not bad - it tasted like instant coffee and was kinda punchy coffee flavor, bitter. But I liked that the bitter offset the sweet. Overall, it's a fun place for a gourmet donut but be sure to not get here when it's too busy and to come early - they sell out of fun flavors fast!
