Raspberry lime sorbet
Krista U.

One of my favorite spots for a sweet treat hidden within the neighborhood. I appreciate that there is a rotating menu, I usually get a sorbet flavor or some sort. Staff is usually friendly and you are allowed samples. If you check in on yelp, you can get a 10% discount!

I only go to ice cream shops that sell their homemade ice cream, rather than buying it from a local dealer. Scoop takes it to another level, with ice cream made onsite every day. After reading that, I knew we had to check it out. It did not disappoint. The fact that it was fresh took it to another level. I feel like even if they weren't good at making ice cream, the freshness would shine through, and it would still be good. Thankfully, they know what there doing and it shows in their quality. Our first time there I ordered the cheese platter ice cream, thinking that it would be a cheese ice cream base. After I had the ice cream in hand, my wife asked the Scoop employee what was in the cheese platter. She said it was an apricot ice cream base with other stuff mixed in. "Oh no! I just ordered apricot ice cream." It was fine. Fortunately, I also ordered a second excellent flavor to accompany my apricot. Our next time back I asked for samples of each ice cream in my bowl, to confirm that they were flavors I liked. "Chocolate ice cream? I'll sample it first to confirm. Thanks." This is the best ice cream shop in Spokane.

Strawberry guava sorbet and peach guava Italian soda
Tasha L.

I really enjoyed the strawberry guava sorbet and the peach guava Italian soda. My husband ordered the salted caramel iced cream. The low rating is because the scoop wasn't rinsed after getting my strawberry guava and was then used to scoop the caramel. And those flavors don't exactly mix well. My husband also found a long black hair in his iced cream.

Great location and lovely outdoor seating area. Nice post-dinner spot to hang out with your friends/family. The ice cream selection is pretty good and they have fruit flavored vegan soft serve in pineapple and strawberry flavors.

Dole whip swirl!
Tia M.

Yum!! Seriously! My friend reposted a post from the scoop talking about Dole Whip going away... I couldn't resist. Being new to Spokane (again) I had to go get some!!! I got the swirl and it was soooo good! Their confetti waffle cones are to die for. Not too sweet and actually have a bit of a chew which is so good instead of the typical crunchy crisp shell! We also got chocolate fruit punch all of which were very good! Cute little south hill location it wasn't overly packed. Service was good! Street parking. I wish they weren't going to take the dole whip away I could eat that everyday! Lol

Thanks yelp for putting this spot on my map! Passion sorbet, pineapple soft serve, banoffee with almonds
Mike P.

My girlfriend said I had to write a review for this place after we ate it. She was so impressed, and I was too. I haven't been here for a few years and am ashamed I drove to downtown to get ice cream all this time. The new item that wasn't here before was the dole whip soft serve, which is an easy pleaser and refreshing on a hot day. Their homemade confetti waffle cones were a huge hit too and it seemed like everyone had one in their hands. A must try flavor if you love banana is banoffee (banana, cream, and toffee) with almonds. It was amazing and I'm a sucker for banana flavors. Some other favorites were the passionberry sorbet, coffee, and peach crumble. So don't make the mistake I made, if you're in the south hill, come support your local neighbor ice cream spot! Only $3 for a kid scoop! Thanks Yelp for reminding me of this awesome place!

Raspberry lavender
Huong L.

I was in search of ice cream and this place came up on Yelp so decided to check it out. It's not located on the main Street so you have to be looking for it. I love that this support the community as they do charity events as well as donations. Their ice cream is spectacular. I got the coffee toffee almond and Omg, was delicious. You can taste every flavors that was described and it was fresh. I was able to sample a few other flavors such as the prickly pear lemonade, the mochi one and the coconut and they were all delicious. My friend loved the raspberry lavender. I also love that they have a variety of scoop size that other places don't tend to have like the baby scoop, the 1.5 scoop, etc. Other than that, prices were super reasonable, and even more affordable after the 10% discount Yelp check in. The people were super nice and friendly as well. Definitely a must place to check out if you're in Spokane

Ice Cream in Waffle Cones
Jacques I.

Best ice cream in Spokane! Located in the South Hill neighborhood The Scoop serves housemade ice cream using nitrogen tanks. It's legit. All of their flavors are creamy, but has a lightness to it. In my recent visit I ordered a tween scoop of the Twinkle Berry and the Coconut Granola in a waffle cone that's made with rainbow sprinkles! Ya gotta get the waffle cone for your ice cream - no matter what flavor you get! The sprinkles make all the difference. I must also say that I'm a huge chocolate fan and normally lean towards chocolate flavors, but the Twinkle Berry and Coconut Granola were unbelievably good! The Twinkle Berry is made with mixed berries and sprinkles and tasted like there was some vanilla in it, kind of like tasting strawberry cheesecake! It was super good, so ordered my main scoop with this flavor. The Coconut Granola was my baby scoop of the tween scoop, which are two scoops of ice cream, the bottom being a regular size scoop and the top being a smaller scoop. It's a good way to try two flavors without feeling like a cow. And the Coconut Granola flavor I ordered was really good, with berries and granola in a coconut milk ice cream base. The Scoop has a rotating menu, so it's worth the frequent visits. In addition to their ice creams, they also serve Dole Whip and liege waffles and have a full espresso menu. Space inside is on the smaller side, but seating outside on a nice day was a pleasant experience. I love getting The Scoop!

I am saddened to give this review. I have never given this low of a rating, but I have also never…read morebeen so disappointed. I had heard wonderful things about this little bistro, but I left severely disappointed. We ordered the Wagyu steak, the chicken dish and a Margarita Pizza. The Wagyu was on the spendy side at $52.00 for this type of establishment, but not outrageous. Sometimes I am hesitant to order a steak of it is too inexpensive. However, a good Wagyu ordered medium rare should not be served sauced and sliced and should not be cold to the touch. It was very rare and not cooked properly. I don't believe they have the correct equipment to cook a steak like this as it appeared to be cooked properly on the edges. Whoever sliced it should have known that Wagyu will be tough and chewy if not cooked properly. The pizza had the same issue. It was bland and served cold. We decided to bring it home and try and cook it later. If I had to guess, it was a frozen pizza just cooked and not fresh. Finally, the chicken never came. It turned out that they were out of chicken. With a limited menu, this was disappointing, so we switched to the $28 cheese tray. The cheese tray was ok. Clearly just three random cheeses without a lot of thought into how the flavors could be expanded and mixed with the sides. The service was very polite and professional, which was the only redeeming factor. The food was not cooked well. It was not expensive, but it was not cheap and the food felt cheap and poorly done. If you are going to charge higher end prices, you need to deliver a higher end experience. My thoughts when I left were that if I lived close, I might wait a couple months and try again, but I will not bee driving out of my way again to eat there. Again, this kills me as I really had looked forward to trying this small bistro.

The two stars isn't really fair, but the execution is so poor the food is overshadowed. We had the…read moreshrimp appetizer and it was good, not great. The ossobuco - figs from the freezer tossed on the polenta. The veal shank fell hard to lazy cooking. The mushroom pasta was a masterpiece. The desert really brought it all down to a crash. We ordered "sticky toffee pudding" and it was a cold, stale muffin with whip cream on top. It was such a lazy effort it was offensive. For $240 we had a dismal dinner that could have been excellent if they tried, gave a damn and stopped phoning it in. Until they give a damn you shouldn't either.

I could tell there was still plenty of time to get a scoop before 8PM. At 7:43 PM, one of the workers came out from behind the counter and told about 10-15 of us in line that we would have to leave because they close at 8. She was very kind about it, and she kept saying "I hate having to do this," but it made absolutely no sense. She arbitrarily split the line, and decided some people could stay, but said the rest of us (5 girls ahead of us, and 7-8 people behind us) had to go. Mind you, the girls in front of us and our group were ALREADY IN THE SHOP. Everyone looked really confused, understandably. I've literally never had this happen to me before. I held up my phone to show the worker the time, and I said, "Its only 7:43. We have 17 minutes before closing." Others said, "but we're already in the shop" or "but we've been waiting in line for a while." None of this made any difference. We all still had to leave. Even though there was plenty of time to get everyone ice cream. And god-forbid they have to keep working until 8:05 or 8:10 to make sure patrons who waited in line could get ice cream. What kind of shop does this?? How is this acceptable? "Bad customer service" puts it mildly. I could spell out a million other better ways this could have been done. Do better, Scoop. Spokane already struggles in the ice-cream shop department. Please be a part of the solution, not the problem.

This was our first visit to Doyle's. My husband got a single scoop of mint chip ice cream. Originally, I was going to get a banana split but they were out of bananas. I decided to get a triple scoop: chocolate thunder, mint chip, strawberry ice cream. I was able to add 3 different toppings, whip cream and/or nuts. I got strawberry, chocolate and fudge. I thought strawberry, was fresh fruit strawberries. I thought the chocolate was chocolate chips. There is a little patio area, with tables and chairs behind the parlor. I was super disappointed by the ice cream I received. The sauces were overwhelming, disproportionate to the ice cream. The sauces were way too sweet. I couldn't even taste the ice cream. The ice cream was fair, not rich and creamy. I didn't finish even half the ice cream, not worth the sugar high and dry mouth.

It was awful--stale and tasty strongly of cinnamon, which was just odd. The man who served us was friendly and upbeat, and the old toys made for a fun atmosphere.

It had a couple long freezers of ice cream as well as a decorated case. The young guy who helped us was nice and gave good service. I got a double scoop in a cup of Cherry Garcia and Berry Berry Extraordinary. Cherry Garcia is what you expect it to be if you're familiar with Ben & Jerry's and Berry Berry Extraordinary was new to me and had to try it. It was a pretty tasty sorbet. My friend got a strawberry limeade smoothie. He said all he tasted was tart and limeade. He didn't taste any strawberry, which I agree because I tasted it and it definitely lacked strawberries. The decorated case was full and looked pretty good, but we didn't get anything from it. My 3 gripes are: 1) my double scoop looked like a junior scoop at best, 2) it was $16 bucks and it was a lack of value and quality regarding the smoothie, and 3) they had all the flavors you're familiar with but sorely lacked any fruity type offerings.
