Cute little shop outside of the pedestrian bridge. Pick either vanilla or chocolate for a base and add as many "add ins" as you want. They have some recommended combinations, but your options are endless. Service was quick and friendly.

This what you do, right. You walk the Walnut Bridge in either in the summer or the winter and you immediately go to this place. It serves the best ice cream and the best hot chocolate ever. In the summer you get the ice cream, you get to mix toppings and you get to mix many flavors. But then in the winter time you get the hot chocolate. The hot chocolate has whipped cream and marshmallows whipped together on top and the hot chocolate is like a hug wrapped in a cup. Best ever.

We came here after walking the bridge. When I read the reviews I was concerned as it only had 4 stars. However we were here wife wanted ice cream so here we go. Walked in, nice cozy place. It's either vanilla or chocolate ice cream. But with that you add your toppings which get mixed into the ice cream. We went old school with cookie dough and macadamia nut ice cream. What was the magic was when they made it, they put the ice cream into a machine which then makes it a soft serve almost when it comes out. That was cool. I can't show the video as I was cursing in it lol. Anyway ice cream was delicious. A bit over priced at 9 dollars for a cone.

Overpriced. Overwhelming. Just give me a regular ice cream shop. Service is fine. Inside looks unkempt. Too many ice cream options. I don't want to have to build my own.

Me and the group of friends were in town for my birthday and decided to walk the Walnut Street Bridge. We did and took some great pictures and on my way back saw this cute little ice cream shop. It was really hot outside that day so ice cream sounded delicious. The way this ice cream shop works is you get to choose between chocolate or vanilla and it could be either ice cream or yogurt. You pick your toppings which is $.40 per topping. And you choose a cup or cone. They take the ingredients and they blend it all together and put it into your choice of cup or cone. They were really fast because by the time I took my card out to pay they were handing me my ice cream. I chose to do the vanilla ice cream with Reesie's cup and caramel. It was really really good. I would definitely recommend trying out this ice cream shop.

Expect a longgg wait standing in line to order, this place is BUSY! The workers only have 2 machines to work on for making ice cream, which greatly hinders the speed of service. While waiting, make sure to check out the beautiful artwork on the walls--which is for purchase. This place completes all expectations given, you will get an ice cream show, directions for choosing ice cream are clear, and there are over 70,000 combinations that can be made. While the ice cream is nothing special (you can get Mayfields at a grocery store), the special part is the machine that blends the ingredients into the ice cream. We went twice and tried different flavor combinations. My favorite was vanilla with brownie and black cherry. My boyfriends favorite was vanilla with peaches and mango. The flavors were delicious added in, instead of just being toppings. It hit the spot for a sweet treat!

Simply Delicious! Great Service, great flavor selection. The store is located on a courtyard at the end of the Walnut Bridge (walkable bridge), the inside is charming. The ice cream was really good. Great place to enjoy an ice cream.

Yum! I remembered Japanese ice cream! It was really tasty and very light!There are very very busy...

I'm still not sure exactly how my order was priced, so I'm deducting a star, but I thoroughly enjoyed my ice cream! Spotting a small sign on the counter mentioning their new Charcoal topping, I chose that, and added Walnuts & Irish Cream to my vanilla ice cream in a waffle cone. Their cone holders looked awesome, but even before halfway across the Walnut Street Bridge, my waffle cone was dripping terribly and I had to stop at a trash can to finish it. Luckily, I'd grabbed a bunch of napkins, because it was a mess at that point! The selection of toppings is amazing! They seem to have plenty of seating both indoors & outside, and the decor is cool. Also, Mom noticed a watering station for dogs by their outdoor tables. Hey, Gilligan, #RoadTrip?

Vanilla mixed with cookie dough, Oreo, and cake mix

This is a no frills ice cream shop. The rules were simple; choose a flavor, choose the cup or cone, choose the toppings. Then they'd mix it for you. I chose vanilla ice cream with cookie dough, Oreo and cake mix to be blended together atop a waffle cone cup. The ice cream was soft, which I loved. I definitely see why this place is highly reviewed. Even though they were busy, I didn't wait long for my food. This place knows good ice cream!

Lisa O.

The location is the best! Right off the Walnut Street Bridge. Hunter museum of American Art is close by as well as the Bluff Furnace Historical park. Could definitely get your steps in before indulging in some ice cream! It's soft serve ice cream! You choose vanilla or chocolate ice cream or yogurt. Then you choose toppings that they mix into it. It was yummy! I prefer hard packed ice cream but this hit the spot!

Kind of mediocre. Ended up here because of its location. We were at the aquarium and it was nearby. High prices, grocery store quality.

Ask the Community - The Ice Cream Show

Do all the vegan flavor options contain soy?

I know they offer vegan but i am not sure if it's soy, sorry.

Do they also have dairy free ic cream?

Yes they do! They have soy-based frozen yogurt as an alternative. You just have to ask because they don't show that on the menu!

I like ice cream, but I don't love it, EXCEPT when it comes from Scoop Around. The first time I…read morewent it was because I was on a walk with my boyfriend and his mom and they wanted to go. I wasn't even expecting to get anything. When I walked in though, I tried a spoon of the key lime flavor they had at the time. I expected it to taste like key-lime-flavored-ice-cream but it tasted like a scoop full of key lime PIE The texture even felt like pie because there were delicious hunks of graham crust inside. I was converted. BUT, even more importantly, this shop is run by passionate people. The second time we went in was weeks or even a little over a month later and they remembered us. They gave us a pup cup for my boyfriend's dog while he waited outside with him and they were so helpful and patient with me and his mom. We were indecisive and might have been hard to communicate with because we struggled through our decision making process in Spanglish. She was trying in both languages to explain to me what she wanted but my help wasn't needed at all because the people at Scoop got the gist of what flavor she was craving (rum and raisin) and did their best to come up with something adjacent. She loved it! I so appreciate the kind people at Scoop. "Son muy atentos" y "bien nice."

Delicious and unique ice cream and the two kids working were so sweet and friendly. I loved this…read moreplace!
