Summer is almost here, which means it's officially ice cream season. After walking around and shopping, I needed a little pick-me-up and stopped by The Charmery. Super cute spot, clean, inviting, and with a great variety of flavors. Alex recommended the Maryland Mud and roasted strawberry, and both were absolutely delicious. Honestly, ice cream this good doesn't even need toppings. Pair it with a waffle cone, and it's the perfect combo. Street parking is available, but it can get pretty busy on the weekends. Don't be afraid to park a little farther away, it's worth the walk. Take your time walking to the shops around and then treat yourself to some ice cream at The Charmery. Good lord, I almost forgot about the red velvet cookie. Don't leave without getting one. read more

Each Christmas my family and I make it a mandatory stop to visit the charmery for hot chocolate! It is a staple family tradition at this point. Yesterday we attended the Charmery it is adorable location in hampden. The people were wonderful and so accommodating to our large order and disfunction. The shop has that perfect ice cream vibe and smells like a little piece of heaven when you walk in. Already excited for next Christmas Ps. Your won't find nicer ice cream scoopers then at the charmery read more

Charmery isn't necessarily on the top of my list when it comes to a scoop of ice cream but recently, their milkshakes have been rocking my world. You get a choice of two scoops for the shakes and I usually opt for the chocolate and vanilla since their chocolate by itself is a little too rich for me. The result is a perfect, creamy balance with the option to top with whipped cream. I would love to see more gluten free friendly options on the menu for more traditional flavors (a lot of them seem to have cookies and things mixed in) but for now, I'm loving the milkshakes. read more

Have been meaning to try The Charmery and finally made my way down to Hampden. There was a long line but it moved fairly quickly. Just peeking at the menu, there are a lot of flavors to try! There's also a freezer of additional pints and ice cream sandwiches for purchase. I tried the peanut butter chip, one scoop. The ice cream was smooth and overall had a great flavor. Looking forward to trying more flavors in the future! read more

Tuesday 3/25/25 I've had this spot on my list for a while, as it's a Maryland-based franchise and there was a spot in Baltimore, so I decided to make a visit. The service was fine, I was able to sample six different flavors (telltale, Maryland mud, pure vanilla, old bay caramel, spiced pineapple, and sour grapes) with no problem. Although many of the flavors were unique and creative, none of them really impressed me. I decided I had to leave with something, so I got a double cup of Maryland mud & pure vanilla $7.79. The ice cream was alright. They don't have a cookies n cream flavor, and Maryland mud is the closest thing to it. Maryland mud is chocolate ice cream, Oreo cookie pieces, and chocolate chips. It was cool, but didn't really do much for me. The vanilla was alright, but I really just got it to balance the chocolate overload from the Maryland mud flavor. The ice cream flavors weren't bad by any means, but for me, it wasn't very memorable, and I would not come back. read more

Love the unique flavors here! Had the ice cream sando and stay gold flavors--both creamy and with great textures. Lots of cute shops on the strip it's located on as well. Minimal seating indoors and outdoors; when the line gets longer and fill up the indoor space, people eat outside or walk and eat. Lots of street parking nearby! read more

I'm thrilled the weather is improving because that means the return of a favorite warm-weather pastime: going to the Charmery after an early evening meal and window shopping. Make no mistake - I am known to enjoy a scoop of mint mountain year round. I don't need an excuse. It's not easy to put in words, but there's something ceremonial and sacred to me about the scent of freshly pressed waffle cones leading me down the Ave on a sunset stroll. The Charmery is integral to my joy as a Baltimore resident. read more

Yummy ice cream! Loved the unique flavors. Tried: Old bay caramel: actually really yummy and not weird at all. Did get too sweet for me after a while. Sunday morning cartoons: so fun!! Loved it. Roasted strawberry: my favorite. Very mild sweetness and easy to eat a lot of. Spiced pineapple: really creamy and delicious. Also easy to eat more of. I liked the fact that we can get two kiddie scoops! Game changer for someone who can't finish two regular scoops of ice cream but wants variety. They have a little card that you can stamp every time you get ice cream and after enough you can spin a wheel to win a free cone! read more

Ole reliable. You need a sweet treat? They got a sweet treat. Want a new fun flavor? They got a new fun flavor. You want a classic flavor, they got it. Everything I've ever had there is delicious. The waffle cone if a must get. Feel free to get a sample to make sure you love what you'll get too! The service is great, everyone is so sweet. It's such a charming little corner ice cream shop. read more

Cute ice cream shop! Located in busy Hampden. Parking could be tricky. I snagged a spot a few blocks away. There's not really any seating inside. On a hot summer day, the place was packed. It was my first time here, but i got a good recommendation. They let you sample, and I was curious about the old bay caramel - it was different but not for me. I settled on the salty caramel. I liked it, but it melted way too quickly! Prices aren't terrible. read more

The old bay caramel is hands-down my favorite flavor that I have ever gotten at an ice cream shop. It's perfect for anyone who loves salty and sweet, but the Charmery takes it to the next level with how complex the old bay is. Highly highly recommend! read more

Perfect for the heat. Service was okay, workers seemed over it. + Double Kiddie Scoop ($6.79): Tell tale chocolate and roasted strawberry, chocolate was rich and melted quicker (7.5/10), while strawberry had a deeper flavor (7/10). I preferred the chocolate but enjoyed this combo. read more

I recently went to The Charmery on a weekend afternoon and loved all the unique flavors like Old Bay Caramel and Crackers and Cheese. I got a Dubai chocolate sundae which was good, but needed more chocolate and pistachio. Nonetheless, I loved the quick service and unique flavors. I look forward to going back! read more

This local ice cream chain remains my favorite in Baltimore. The flavor creations are fun and unique, the ingredients are quality, and the menu rotates at a good frequency. I love when they experiment with alcohol flavors too - mezcal and fig and red wine poached pear. Service is always quality and while I do think they should get rid of the disposable plastic spoons, the ones they use change colors when you dip them into your ice cream. read more

Came here for an after dinner treat and could not be more pleased! The ambiance and storefront is very cute, and the staff is friendly. (Bonus points for one of the staff members knowing which types of sprinkles had gluten and which types didn't - wow). I got "pure vanilla" with rainbow sprinkles (because I'm basic like that) and loved it - great creamy quality yet didn't melt too easily. Will definitely return and try more flavors, especially some of their seasonal flavors which rotate! read more

After seeing the Charmery on the news, I knew I had to stop by to try their infamous Carmel old bay flavored ice cream. As soon as I walked in I was surrounded by the yummy smell of freshly made waffle cones. The staff is super friendly and they allowed me to try so many flavors (side note: you try the flavors with an actual metal spoon, good way to prevent so much plastic waste). I enjoyed the Carmel old bay but will only eat this when it's that time of the month. The Charmery also offers staple classics along side the fun seasonal flavors. I ended up ordering one scope of the mint mountain in a waffle cone. I plan to come back often this summer. This is my new staple ice cream spot in Baltimore. Plenty of street parking on this quirky Hampden neighborhood read more

Love the ice cream and the ever changing flavors at The Charmery. My only complaint is that the person helping me had loose hair, which ended up on my ice cream as she bent down to get the 2nd scoop. I cannot do hair touching my food! I let the cashier know and she had the cone made again. Thankfully, I was watching and saw it happen , because the employee didn't realize. I hope employees pull their hair back so this doesn't happen again or to other customers ! read more

What a fun and cute ice cream shop. We are in town visiting family and our sister-in-law recommended this spot and it was a hit. They have so many flavors and you can try what you want. We ended up getting strawberry, mint chocolate chip and chocolate chip. So good and creamy. The servers were friendly. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

Came back during another visit to the area, to experience more flavors. It's a trio of Thai Tea, Razuzu (pairing of raspberry and yuzu juice), and Ginger. The flavors of the first two flavors weee very nice, but the ginger could use more intensity. It's a favorite stop for the locals and visitors alike. read more

Oh, Charmery. As many times as we come to Hampden I try to avoid you because of the delicious ice cream-- so dangerous! Two of us stopped here last night in search of some of the best since cream in Baltimore. I got the PBJ ice cream (raspberry jelly) with rainbow sprinkles (because life is short) and this was truly a transcendental experience. Thank you, Charmery on the Avenue in Hampden for consistently providing such rich and creamy comfort food. Served with a color-changing spoon, this is indeed ice cream paradise. read more

The local ice cream place of Hampden had a stand outside offering hot chocolate, but the weather was not so cold as to dissuade me from going inside and ordering ice cream. The hot chocolate looked good though. The ice cream had a variety of flavors, some rather Maryland-specific. I couldn't quite bring myself to try "Old Bay Caramel". My Maryland Mud and a fresh mint flavor were quite sufficient, and were smooth and rich. Service was surprisingly inefficient given the short line. It was on the pricey side, even for premium ice cream, and I wasn't convinced that it was worth doing on more than an occasional basis. But the quality was there. read more

The flavors are super creative, and I always love trying something new--Old Bay Caramel, anyone? But I do wish the portions were a bit more generous for the price. Still a great local spot for a treat on a hot day. read more

Old bayyyy!! A few months ago, Brian David Gilbert partnered with The Charmery to release a special ice cream flavor. As my husband had been tinkering with Brian's ice cream flavors, including old bay, we had to stop by when we were in the area to see if they had this flavor and to try their old bay ice cream. When were arrived around 9:30 pm on a Saturday, it was packed and had a long line, but the line moved fast and gave me time to decide on which flavors to try. I got three flavors - old bay caramel, coconut goody goody gum drop and honey feta. The honey feta was my favorite one - the sweet honey paired beautifully with the salty and tangy feta flavor. The old bay caramel was good though I wished they included corn meal and celery in it as it was more caramel-ly than old bay! The coconut one was quite interesting - it almost tastes like a sour beer with the raspberry jam. The mochi was a great textural addition. All of the ice creams were very creamy. Oh and I also got a waffle cone on top, which is like a whole waffle cone instead of a shard of waffle cone at some other ice cream joints! If you are asking, was this a lot of ice cream? Yes, yes it was. I could only get through half of my 3 ice creams, but I split the waffle cone with my husband and this definitely satiated my ice cream craving! read more

Always a great experience here. Always craving this ice cream after seeing the lights and I'm always glad The Charmery is open. Lots of classic selections, some interesting flavors and it's great you're able to try any of them too. Everyone was friendly and the line went fast especially for how busy it was. read more

The Charmery has some of the best ice cream in Baltimore. It's rich, it's creamy, and there are always a few very unique flavors that don't exist anywhere else. They always have at least one vegan ice cream and a sorbet. And the best part is the loyalty punch card program - once you reach the end of your card you get to spin a wheel for a prize. read more

This location of the Charmery has the least amount of indoor seating. It also has the cleanest look. The ice cream selection is the same as the other locations. Lots of inventive flavors of regular ice cream as well as flavors that are always available. These include chocolate, vanilla and a strawberry version (which are my family's go-tos). Waffle cones are freshly made on site. The vegan offerings are done well but lack the inventiveness and choices that the regular ice cream has. If you are into inventive (or even not inventive) handcrafted ice cream, The Charmery has your back. If you want good vegan ice cream in typical flavors, the Charmery can do that too. But if you want vegan options and unique vegan flavors, there are better places to check out in and around Baltimore. read more

the charmery is an excellent ice cream place! it has classic ice cream shop vibes inside and they cycle specialty flavors. i've gone a few times, but the last time i went was REALLY standout. the staff here are always incredibly friendly and personable (i don't often tip at counter service places, but this is one of the places i regularly do tip because i like the service so much). i ordered the chocolate croissant ice cream, and it was easily some of the best ice cream i've ever had. this is saying something as i grew up right next to the OG ben and jerry's factory. the chocolate croissant ice cream had large chunks of croissant that were still crispy and bits of chocolate with some kind of white (probably vanilla) base. i highly recommend this place for a quick stop, but if you want seating you'll have to migrate elsewhere. read more
