While I'm not in love with most flavors they have, I do like all of the ones I've tried! My favorites out of their regular menu are gooey butter cake and honey lavender. My favorite seasonal flavor was the smores. I've been to Betty Rae's 4x and customer service is consistently friendly, which I really appreciate. Prices are average but portions are generous. When it comes down to it, if we need an ice cream place close by after dinner, I'll probably suggest Betty Rae's.

There's 4 street parking stalls out front on Johnson Dr. The inside is clean & AC was nice on hot days. The girl behind the counter was nice & gave us samples of the gelato that we were curious about. Wifey selected a med cup of dark chocolate and strawberry. I got the med cup with pistachio and coconut. We watched the girl making our cups and noticed she gave more of one flavor than the other in each of our cups. I was a lil disappointed about that. It ended up being 2/3 dark chocolate and 1/3 strawberry in wifey's cup. There was 2/3 pistachio and 1/3 coconut in mine. I like even amounts if you're gonna have a cup with 2 flavors. Lil bit of one flavor mixed with the second flavor. I ended up with a bit more pistachio than I expected. Wifey definitely had more dark chocolate than strawberry. I think next time we'll ask if they can scoop closer to even amounts of each. Although the total amount of gelato was more than worth the cost. We did sit inside since outside was pretty hot and almost no breeze. The place had 3 tables. One had seating for 4 and the other 2 had seating for 2 each. When we entered one of the 2 seater tables had 2 ladies that were jus sitting there with drinks and talking and laughing really loudly. It was echoing in the small room. Other than that it was nice in that cozy lil shop. We liked how the girl behind the counter was patient and welcomed us when we told her it was our first time there. I wanna try some other combos next time. This place reminds me of the lil gelato place we liked back home in Hawaii. A Hui Hou!

You will find the most enthusiastic employees, many of whom are differently abled, in a welcoming environment inclusive for ALL.

The staff always makes me feel welcomed, the place is immaculately kept, and the conversation flows naturally. The concept alone makes you feel good and the experience will sharpen those feelings.

One thing I didn't realize is that you can only try 2 samples. I suppose that makes sense since they've had lines both times I've been there and it's popular with families, but I'm generally not a fan of this with ice cream places, especially ones with tons of flavors like Sylas & Maddy's. And there are many other ice cream places in KC that don't limit samples so... I also couldn't help but feel less than welcome here this visit hearing everyone get a "Merry Christmas" before and after me but not me. It could definitely be just accidental, but as a minority it's somewhat harder to brush off. Anyway I think I'll probably still come back here but not in a hurry to do so.

*SUGAR FREE ICE CREAM AVAILABLE HERE YAAAY!*I got to know about Alice Coopers and their delicious…read moreice creams during the Yelp Halloween party. However, the main thing that caught my immediate interest was their sugarfree/keto ice cream (they have one flavor a month) because I'm a diabetic and always on the lookout for sweets with no sugar, and Alice Coopers is honestly one of the very few places in the metro that offers it. Also, my husband is a hardcore rock music lover and so am I (because of him haha), so just hearing the name of the shop already had us excited. It's obviously named after the famous hard rock singer, and the minute we walked in few days back, we loved the whole hard rock band theme around the shop. They have themed Sundaes like Slipknot Sundae, Metallica Sundae and many of the ice cream flavors are named after famous songs. That was a total win for both of us. We instantly became huge fans and will definitely come back to Alice Coopers for our ice cream cravingssss going forward. During this first visit of ours we tried their keto icecream. The flavor of the month was called 'Pecan Sticky Bun' and I got mine with a low-sugar ice cream cone and my husband got the same flavor but as a shake, topped with cream and a cherry. Heyyyy, what else do you need in lifeeee? I was genuinely so happy that I could enjoy ice cream guilt free for once. The shop itself was very cute and decorated with Christmas items. There was an electric fireplace and a small seating area next to a graffiti wall. The ice creams were neatly displayed and the shop overall was very clean and well maintained. The service was good too, and the prices were reasonable. One scoop in a low sugar cone along with a regular size shake came to around $13+. The shop is located inside the beautiful Briarcliff Mall, and the surrounding area is lovely with so many great shops. Grabbing an ice cream here and taking a stroll around the mall afterward honestly feels like the perfect way to end an evening.

It was quite busy when we stopped in nevertheless the staff was very friendly and happy to let us sample flavors before ordering, which I appreciated. The one thing that really stood out was the price ... and not in a good way. We paid $16 for two scoops of ice cream, which felt pretty outrageous for what we got. I truly enjoy supporting local businesses, and I understand that rising costs and high rent can play a role, but it still didn't feel worth it. I didn't rate them too low based on that because they're doing a great job! If you're going for the atmosphere and experience, it could be a fun stop. But if you're thinking about value for money, it may come across as a bit underwhelming.

I was celebrating passing a certification for work so we thought we should have a treat. Also, my brother was in town so it seemed a good time. I've never had ice cream like this before. They literally make it right in front of you. After you order your flavor, they pour liquid in a bowl and use a stand mixer and liquid nitrogen to prepare the ice cream fresh while you wait. There are no additives or preservatives, and it tastes amazing! The family who owns the place is very kind and willing to walk you through the menu and the process. They also have a bubble tea and some other treats for you to enjoy. They offer board games for adults and children. It's a very comfortable and homey place.

I will say though, few of the flavors I saw there are similar to what you find in other ice cream (Betty Rae's) shops and that's why I didn't feel they were very unique. But the flavors here definitely have deeper and stronger taste and not like the light and plain ones you get other . The staff were great and the shop was very clean. I tried maybe 4 or 5 flavors and each time they gave it to me on a small steel spoon, which I really appreciated. I like that they don't use much plastic spoons just for tasting so full marks to them for that. I didn't notice any seasonal flavors when I was there but I have heard they do have good seasonal ones too sometimes. The ones I tried were lavender honey, chocolate fudge, coffee, and lemon cake and I honestly loved all of them. I also asked if they had any ice creams with less sugar since I am a diabetic and they had no information about it. I ended up getting half a scoop of the kids cup :) I don't understand why this location has less rating than it deserves. I would give it 5 out of 5 and surely recommend everyone to check it out.

I settled upon a scoop (albeit large) of a unique sweet vanilla type ice cream of fresh blueberries and strawberries with a yellow cake mixed in -- sooo good. My husband got a brownie sundae and loved his, too. I must say that you HAVE to get the waffle bowl because it was the best we've ever had...it's a dessert on its own.

This spot has a cult following and I'm embarrassed to say how long it took me to get over here to pick up a cone and see what it's all about. I am glad though, that I made the trek and I'm happy to say I've been back a few times since! First thing you'll notice about this spot is that it's a walk up counter, and there is something charming about that. There are a few tables outside on the sidewalk if you want to stay and enjoy your ice cream on the spot. The next thing you'll notice are all of the interesting flavors, my favorite so far has been the banana haze, but I have a feeling they all are good. On hot summer nights there will be a line here, but it's worth the wait and honestly what ice cream spot doesn't have a line in the summer? The folks working are always super nice and willing to answer any questions you have. You'll walk away with a really great sized scoop for the price and one of the best ice creams in KC.

This is my second time checking out High hopes. I tried their famous hot chocolate (hot cocoa)…read moreduring Holiday season. My friend loved it but I'm not a fan of hot chocolate in general. I decided to check out their ice creams this time and started with chocolate flavor. Chocolate ice cream was soooo creamy in texture and very rich in flavor.

I am more excited to try their "bourbon butter pecan" in my next visit to High hopes. High hopes don't look like your usual ice cream shop, they have a couple of tables outside and it doesn't help when it's cold and windy. Be prepared for it. Staffs are usually very good.
