The absolute cutest froyo/dessert shop I've ever been to! I love the ambiance and you really feel…read morethe beachy, relaxed vibe that matches the obx theme. Staff are all friendly and the line went by pretty quick (less than 15 minutes) for a pretty popular place. Parking lots space is limited but there's plenty of street parking. Photo booth was available, 2 strips for $6.

I can not wait to go back, with friends or solo! This was by far the sweetest (pun intended) iced…read morecream shop I have been to in a long time. Let's start with location. Great size parking lot, sounds like they get a LOT of customers based off their signs. And they do have a lot, so you know exactly what to expect. The whole house is beautiful, love their decor and the cute way people hide money in the cracks and crevices of the establishment. This is the second place I have been to that I've seen this done. My younger one hid a quarter of her own. Also, wish we weren't rushing out so quickly to head to our next spot because I would have loved some cute merch! T-shirts, hoodies, bags, cups, etc. The establishment is clean, well maintained, and overall a total OBX vibe. Lots of sitting areas inside and outside on the porch. Service was cool, younger highschool kids mainly, they had a lot of them at the counter. I didn't need any help but they seem ready and willing to be at service. No complaints. They also offer military discount. A+ for our active military and veterans. The ice cream was great. Think froyo style places where it's based off weight. I had a mixture of Vanilla, pretzel, and cheesecake. I liked the cheesecake best especially with the cheesecake toppings. My friend got an ice cream sandwich, note she isn't a super sweets person but she really enjoyed it. She did say the cookie part of the sandwich was a bit too sugary for her personally. Me on the other hand, bring on the sugar. The kids had an awesome time selecting their ice cream and toppings. Every one of them loved being able to make their own decisions and create exactly what they wanted. As for the toppings I do wish they had crushed graham crackers, would have been great with the cheesecake bites. Note* Slowly pull the handle for ice cream. Some come out way faster than others and you end up with a way too filled bowl. Overall an excellent experience and a certified Surfin' Spoon roadie! Just need to grab some merch next time to show them off as I travel!
