The tres leches crepe is my next favorite item on the menu, which they make fresh to order. They rotate flavors based on the season, so when you come, your old favorite may be gone... but a few new ones have come to the rescue. The employees are friendly and welcoming. They have a one sample policy so choose something you think you'll like rather than something you just want to "try". It's a small building too, so keeping the line moving is greatly appreciated, especially during busy times. It's a cute date night spot, or even just sitting outside people watching on the patio around the old market/downtown area.

Their Dutch Chocolate Shake is something special. I've been to countless ice cream parlors across the country and no one has been able to replicate their Dutch Chocolate Shake. Even if you're not a fan of chocolate shakes, you have to give their shakes a try. They have plenty of other flavors and options that you haven't seen anywhere else. Theres something for everyone here. I've been going for years and will keep going coming back. Always phenomenal service and it's hard to beat a cute 1950's ambience cooling off with some ice cream after a hot day.

This has been and always will be my absolute favorite ice cream treat that I've ever tasted. The caramel is served hot, which slightly melts the ice cream for a perfect texture. The flavor of the caramel is very clearly homemade in the best way! The ice cream itself is also purely homemade, made from heavy cream that coats your mouth in the best way. This is truly the best sweet treat you can find, and a must try for any anyone else who is a fan of caramel!!

It would be reasonable to expect that a Midwestern city would offer some high quality local ice…read morecream, and this place appears to be the standard-bearer here. Branded as "Farm to cone", they have an exciting flavor variety to intrigue the adults in the room, of which there were quite a few. I sampled a more classic mint chocolate chip and a more experimental basil flavor with white chocolate chips, both kind of thematically similar. Both flavors hit hard, and the house waffle cone was thinner than I expected but pleasingly browned and it held up well. While the focus on dairy is expected, they do offer several sorbets for those whose dietary needs require it. Business was vigorous even on a midweek night, and I would note that for an ice cream place in an area where the sun does not set in summer until almost 9, they close on the early side, so hurry on over.

We visited the Blackstone District location, but the other one had no parking and the area was so sketchy. Blackstone though is going through construction so we had to drive around, but we found street parking right in front! The shop is very cute, but small! I think service was friendly, I think I was just distracted with how many options there were! The ice cream flavors were interesting and I went with the basil white chocolate - it was so basil forward and I LOVED that. It had bites of white chocolate and I think it mellowed out the basil for me. Still, my favorite. My husband ordered cinnamon cheesecake for himself, and a tart cherry crumble - both of these were lovely! Seating is very limited as there is a bench inside with two round tables, but they are so close together you might as just sit outside at another set of two tables. Decently priced for gourmet ice cream and I loved the shout out on their wall of local farmers that supply certain ingredients!

The employee working was really nice and greeted my right away. They were out of a couple things that I wanted so I had to pivot a bit. I got 4 cookies/brookies. They were all good, nothing mind blowing. And they were expensive; almost $5 each! Not worth the money IMO. They were okay and I would only go back if my daughter wanted to.

We ate here for their breakfast/ brunch offerings…read more It's located inside the historic Magnolia hotel. The interior dining area is nice, modern, folksy with the upholstered pleather chairs at the table. Has a small and rather limited menu though. We ordered the yogurt parfait, avocado toast on sour dough bread and steel cut oats and a plain black coffee. The steel cut coats is good, the oats are smaller cut, which I like. The blackberry compote is good on top of it. The yogurt, granola and blueberry parfait is good. Think it would be even better with a berry compote for added flavor to it. The avocado toast looks decent, but there is barely any avocado smashed onto the sour dough at all. It's quite skimpy. The coffee is average, so was our service, better with another staffer that had noticed our food order was not actually put in by our first waitress.

If you need to pay cash, you go up to the front otherwise the self-service kiosk can take card. Parking can be a little tricky in this area, but there IS street parking. The owners here are super sweet and made great conversation with our large group.

You can also order at the pick-up window too and ask the employees questions if you need help. I ordered at the pick-up window because I wanted to see if I could do a matcha and mango combination since I did not see that was an option. Since it was not during their busy hour they were able accommodate my request which was so kind of them!! Really enjoyed that combination and had an even better experience because they were so nice about my request. I also decided to try one of their drinks before leaving. Got one of their passionfruit mango teas with was very refreshing especially with how hot it was outside. Had a great experience here and will come again!

We parked out front, walked in, and stepped up to the counter and waited for a couple minutes for one of the employees to finish the ice cream they were making for another customer. The young employee was not super friendly but friendly enough....? I believe each ice cream concoction was around $10. After ordering, it took about 10 minutes to get our order, which was fine because we weren't time-constrained and each item takes a bit to make. Each item was good but not sure if it's worth the full $10+, in my humble opinion. They were good but there wasn't much actual ice cream there, but a lot of the add-in's like graham crackers, whipped cream, and a toasted marshmallow, (or similar items). In any case, my daughter loved it and that's all that matters. I'm sure we'll go back in the near future.

Oh my gosh - so glad I did. I hit it right at the perfect time as well - walked in and there was a few people there and just a couple in line who were finishing up. I did the flight of six favors to go - and they were amazing. My favorite was what I think was blackberry basil - so good. Ooey gooey butter cake also a favorite, but the smores was some of the best flavored smores items I have ever had. I think I had cinnamon, lavender honey and one other flavor i can't remember. I will definitely be back, can't wait actually!
