    Single scoop Rocky Road
    Bailey B.

    I tried Three Scoops for the first time what feels like forever ago -- back before the pandemic, after dinner with girlfriends at nearby Big Bowl Thai. It was my suggestion we go; I wanted to try some place new for dessert. I wound up being embarrassed to have recommended it. The service was unfriendly, the inside of the shop was on the grimy side and sparsely decorated, and the ice cream was mediocre for a fairly high price. I wrote a less than glowing review and posted it, but later wound up doing something I rarely do: deleting said review. I saw someone post on the business' media that the shop was really struggling, and even though I'd had an unpleasant experience, I just felt sort of guilty -- although I didn't enjoy my visit to Three Scoops the first time, it's not like I don't want them to succeed. I resolved to try again later and revisit my opinion. Well, years down the line, "later" finally occurred. Came in earlier this week to see if they'd improved any, as clearly the business never struggled enough to shut down, even through the pandemic. I will grant them this: service was better this time. The man came out from the back as the bell rang when I walked in and he was nothing but polite and helpful. So that's good. Inside isn't still dirty, exactly, but it is sort of...I dunno, maybe run down is the right word. Not a lot of tables or decorations, the floor doesn't look gross exactly but just like it's seen better days, and seemingly all the tubs of ice cream were low on product, which just isn't very enticing. I wasn't as impressed with the variety of flavors this time, either. Nothing unusual or interesting or more unique than your standard moose tracks or otter paws. Kinda reminded me of what you'd see on the shelves at a smaller grocery store. They do one unique thing that I'm intrigued by -- ice cream stuffed cupcakes. I've heard some buzz about this and would've liked to try one, but I saw no sign of the product in the shop, other than a small poster encouraging patrons to place orders for them on the wall. But there were none on display and they weren't on the menu, so I can only assume it's a special order only kind of deal. Maybe I'm wrong. I wasn't hungry enough to make a special request. I ordered a single scoop of a Rocky Road equivalent (chocolate ice cream, marshmallow swirl, toasted almonds). The poor kind employee took about a minute and a half just to scrape out a scoop from the dwindling tub. Some ice cream shops have pretty generous pulls on their small/single scoops, but this place means it when they say single scoop. Which is honestly fine -- it's what I ordered -- but the price tag was around $4.50, and honestly I could get a pint of a superior tasting ice cream for that. I don't mind paying a premium if it's better than what I can get at the store...but this wasn't. Look, I don't believe in such a thing as bad ice cream, outside of literally spoiled ice cream, which this was not. But it was bottom of the barrel as far as quality and consistency, as far as I'm concerned. Like Walmart brand ice cream, basically. I got one small mouthful of marshmallow swirl through the whole thing. There were maybe three small pieces of stale, soggy almond slivers in my cup, two of which I got on my first bite. And the chocolate ice cream was overwhelmingly sweet -- no bitter or nuanced chocolate flavors at all. Perhaps the worst part was the consistency of it. I can only describe it as sticky. It was hard to pull it apart with my spoon, not because it was too hard/frozen, but because it was like...glued together. Really weird texture. It was similarly oddly and unpleasantly sticky when eating it, too. I still hope this business can find success, but after two less than stellar experiences, I stand by my initial impression. Perhaps others will have better luck here than I did.

    YESSSSSSSSS. I am a lover of milkshakes OMG. I love the variety of flavors. I hate basic milkshake flavors. We got moose tracks and key lime pie. The flavor of both were amazing. I especially loved my Key like pie attention to detail with the pie crust! It definitely tastes like a pie!! Customer service was good. The lady was super quiet but seemed sweet. Thanks!!

    Cute and cheery inside. All the employees were attentive and friendly. Lots of different flavors, and they even have protein shakes. Tried the watermelon sorbet (light and refreshing!) and the dulce de leche (creamy caramel goodness). Will be back again to try some of their other flavors.

    Such good ice cream! I had the mint-trax double scoop in a waffle cone. I loved every bit of it. My husband had a peach double scoop in a regular bowl and loved it. The service was friendly and they had sampling available. Our new ice cream stop!

    Three scoops is the best ice cream shop in town. They deliver excellent customer service and the ice cream is amazing. Also, its affordable.

    Had ice cream at Three Scoops today. No pun intended but two scoops was more than enough. I'll be back next week.

    Nothing special. They don't make their own ice cream, and it was way too soft. Got a cookie, and that didn't taste very fresh.

    The service is very bad. Rude employees. I picked up a mobile order and had to wait in the drive…read morethru. I could not get out of line to pick it up. I asked them to put in cooler so it wouldn't melt. It was 16 minutes past stated time and was melted. They said basically tough luck, told you to cone in, we are busy, only two of us working. In the past, i would have been asked to come around and brought to me or it would have been brought to me in line or at least put in a cooler like i asked. I hate this location. They just don't care.

    This place is a mess and ran by a rude daytime manager that has no customer service skills…read morewhatsoever. I thought I found a good smoothie place for lunch every now and then but after today I definitely won't be back. The first time I tried this place out it took over 20 mins for them to make a smoothie and that was with an empty shop. So the next time around that I wanted one I called ahead of time to place an order, the manager told me they don't do orders over the phone and I had to place an online order. So I downloaded the app, placed my order and headed on over. When I arrived I waited at the drive through window and the manager tells me that my order isn't ready and to pull up front. I go inside to see why an order placed ahead still isn't ready after almost 30 mins of it being placed. She then tells me that my online order isn't a priority and that in person customers are prioritized LOL they then proceed to make me wait 10 mins while they continued to make other peoples orders that had just arrived. This place sucks, their smoothies suck, the workers suck. I'd definitely go elsewhere for smoothies

As I was looking at the menu, the boys knew what they wanted so I sent them to the cash register to order. While they were at the cash register, one of the boys was touching a gift card display that was next to the cash register. The owner approached him and got really close to him and asked "are you going to buy one" and he said no sir, then the owner said "then don't touch it, put it down". We left and will NEVER return, Never. I would give a ZERO stars if possible. I'll drive to City Bowls in south Huntsville before going to this place, even if I just finished watching a trash pandas game. Horrible owner.

    As a lover of acai bowls, I have to say I'm pleased but a little surprised at how many of them have…read moresprung up around here in the last few years. Playa Bowls is one such option, located near Toyota Field. I visited a couple of weeks ago for a quick lunch before going back to work and had a very nice time! The inside is tropical themed and very cute. I will say I'm ALWAYS hot and even I found it a bit chilly in there, but I guess that makes sense -- keeping all the bases (acai, pitaya, etc) cool and such. You order at the counter and employees call your name when your food is ready. Everyone I interacted with was perfectly pleasant and working hard. This particular chain offers a good many more combinations than many other fruit bowl competitors, which I think is mostly a good thing, though the menu can be a little overwhelming! In addition to bowls, they also offer smoothies and juices. Bases (in other words, the smoothie-like substance that forms the bottom part of a bowl) can be acai, mango, pitaya, oatmeal, or a green, coconut, or banana blend. Again, a little overwhelming, but fun to have so many options. I settled on the Electric Mermaid, which has a pitaya base and is topped with granola, pineapple, mango, kiwi, coconut flakes, and honey. Sadly, they were out of kiwi when I visited, but the employee was kind enough to offer to substitute another fruit or to double up on one of the fruits already in the bowl. I did double pineapple because it's my favorite. :) Overall, the bowl was yummy and well-balanced. All the fruits were perfectly ripe, not too mushy, not too cold, etc. It ran a little on the sweeter side thanks to the honey, but overall, I'd eat it again! There isn't a Playa Bowls particularly close to me, but I'd be happy to return and continue to try out some of their other combinations. If you're an acai bowl fan, I don't think you'll be disappointed here.
