However, due to COVID they are only allowing 5 patrons inside at a time. Depending on whose behind the counter, there can be a language barrier. I just wish they had labels on their ice cream flavors. Also, I didn't know how much each item I bought were since there was no price list visible. I had to check my statement and I spent roughly about 30 bucks. Which was a bit much if you asked me. Other than that, they were patient and courteous. My favorite would have to be their Chamango. Possibly the best I've had so far in Delaware. Nice small chunks of sweet mango. The mango ice was so smooth and tasty with the right amount of sweetness. Enough tang with the chamoy and tajin. Perfect duo of sweet and spice.

Finally tried Fusco's and went right for the icecream options that were advertised. I guess I…read moreshouldn't have been surprised that it was not "real" icecream but the water ice version meaning not as creamy. The espresso/coffee was probably the best flavor although cookies and cream was good too. Served with a weird wooden spoon!

Fusco's is a longtime staple of Wilmington. They recently opened a shop on Kirkwood Hwy (used to be…read morethe Starbuck's). Simple menu with two standard water ice flavors (lemon & cherry). There may be a third flavor, but I go for the OGs. Water ice is all natural, a little chunkier than its competitor down the street. You might be taken aback by the color of the cherry, but it's more natural. They also have some ice cream and tomato pie from Nick's Pizza. There are take home packs of water ice and ice cream. Very clean space (maybe a little too much space) and friendly staff. Since it's a brick & mortar shop, it's open year-round. They also have a rewards program, which gives you access to some impromptu specials.

Very black-and-white with lots of fresh plants and Buddha's everywhere. They have lots of oils, books, and coffee for purchase and a huge menu to order from. Ordering was quick and easy, but after we got our food, we realized they never asked if we were dining in or taking away! Both of my orders were supposed to come with hot honey, and did not. Glad that we were eating in and could ask for it. The Zen toast was delicious and very fresh! The Brekki plate left a lot to be desired. In the box, it was pretty sad looking. It made good toast but seemed pretty weak for a $15 plate. Latte was delicious and not overly sweet. It was a great first time and I loved the vibe, but I definitely would stay away from the plates next time.

The coffee is good and their seasonal menu is always a hit. However, if you are trying to eat clean I would not recommend their non-dairy alternatives as they contain gums and other additives. Also, it is a very overpriced cafe. I paid $12 for a latte which I was not expecting. The service is great and the staff is very friendly and helpful with any questions you may have. Overall, I would recommend everyone try this place as a treat every once in a while.

As I'm writing this, I'm enjoying a cone with Dino's Salted Caramel Pretzel Ice Cream. This ice…read morecream has the perfect balance between sweetness, creaminess and crunch. Here's what they did for this flavor: they mixed vanilla ice cream, salted caramel, chocolate bits and pretzel bits together. So. Damn. Good. And the pretzel bits in the ice cream are not mushy-they're still crunchy. I have no idea how they pulled it off, but they did. I got a to-go container so I could put it on a cone at home and enjoy leisurely. This ice cream and a quiet Autumn afternoon on my porch was exactly what I needed. Go get some before they close for the season at the end of October!

Be warned their portions are very generous, I usually get a small if I want a rather large amount of ice cream, and even the kids size is very generous! They also offer pints and quarts to go, plus a selection of cheeses. The staff is also very kind every time. I recently discovered there's a walking trail that leads to the farm behind the creamery. There are benches and seating along the way, making it a great spot to hang out. Just a heads up: most of the outdoor seating is currently under construction as they expand the area, but it looks like it'll be even better once it's finished.

Great selection of flavors, absolutely delicious and perfectly creamy true ice cream. It was nice enough to sit outside at a picnic table which always makes it more fun. Though the decision was tough, today I went with a scoop of 1923 which is French vanilla ice cream with chocolate chunks and a salted caramel swirl. Sooooo many great sounding flavors! Though my usual go-to flavor is their classic Cookies & Cream, I need to go back soon to try the Holy Fluffernutter!! In addition to many freshly scooped ice cream options, they also sell ice cream by the pint or half gallon, and they have other ice cream treats, artisan cheeses, and some fun merch. They have plenty of parking, as it sits next to the Fred Rust Ice Arena. You're likely to find long lines as we get further into the warm weather seasons, but we always find it worth the wait when that happens.

It's a small stand with a small parking lot and, although the line wrapped around the building, it moved quickly. There are a large number of choices, many of which are pictured and described on the side of the building to peruse while you are in line. I decided to have the Bananas Foster sundae. It was vanilla soft serve sprinkled with cinnamon, topped with caramel and thinly sliced bananas. Pure heaven! The ice cream itself is sweet, creamy, and had a very natural vanilla taste. The bananas were the perfect ripeness and meshed well with the other ingredients. I loved it! My husband had a mango pina colada freeze, which is like a milkshake. Again, the flavors blended well and their vanilla soft serve is outstanding so it brought the drink together. They take cash or card but do bring some cash for a tip for the hard-working staff. This is definitely going on my favorites list and we'll likely combine it with a trip to the Dog House, which is nearby.
