    Wow wow wow. This place had me craving ice cream on cold days. It is so good I said that I wanted to high five the cows making the milk. I was curious enough to try the goat cheese and cherry on my first visit. It was like a cheesecake but soooooooo creamy and delicious. I had a single scoop in the homemade waffle cone. I liked it a lot The next day we went back and I ordered a pint of the same flavor. That pint was then instantly polished off in the parking lot. If I lived here, this place would be a problem for my waistline. It is a little pricey, but definitely worth it. If you like ice cream then you should check this place out. The customer service was great and you can get samples if you ask.

    My husband always wants ice cream so I was looking for a spot we hadn't tried in Asheville yet and stumbled upon this one. We shared a Banana Sundae with: - Brown Sugar Bacon Maple Ice Cream - Peach Ice Cream - Ultimate Chai Ice Cream - Raspberry Sauce - Marshmallow Fluff - Wet Walnuts - Whipped Cream & Cherry I love their unique selection of flavors. I'm not a huge fan of traditional ice cream flavors, so I enjoyed theirs. They rotate flavors and I really wanted to try their goat cheese one, but they didn't have it when we went. They do not skimp on the toppings on the sundae. I loved this. It really added to the ice cream. It's a bonus that they're open on Mondays because most dessert places in Asheville seem to be closed on Mondays. I'd definitely come back to try more flavors!

    WOW!!! The ice cream is delicious and local - love it! Ordered the Belgian Chocolate and the Mint Chip. Both delicious and creamy. Really enjoyed seeing all the creative flavors, along with classics. The interior is quaint and perfect for an ice cream shop. There is a large chalkboard available for getting creative (chalk is provided) and it had me laughing at some of the 'art'. A few spots inside to sit and plenty of outdoor seating under the string of lights. I'm not surprised this place was so busy when I walked in mid-day on a Thursday...it's THAT good!

    Sundea for one yes please

    The best salted caramel in all the land or all of Asheville at least. I love their seasonal peach ice cream too. This ice cream spot is a chill little space that never really changed much and can be counted on to always have a good selection for every taste.

    Super yummy cute little ice cream shop with the pretty nice staff!

    This is a cute Little ice cream shop that's tucked away in a corner of a strip mall, but definitely shines. The ice cream is delicious and they have a variety of flavors (Non dairy options as well). The staff was very friendly and thanked me for being a customer once finding out that was my first time there. I will definitely be back to support!

    YUMMMMMMM. So good…read more My friend is an ice cream cookie monster and has it several times a day when we travel bc that's her favorite thing when she travels is to try all the ice cream in town. I'm happy to oblige, lol. So, after an hour in the Asheville Salt Cave, we walked over here to try this ice cream. Two staff inside working, it was incredibly hot inside, were happy to answer questions and greeted us warmly. They had a nice selection of flavors on the wall and a few specialty flavors. My friends went with a salted caramel vanilla and a peanut chocolate flavor. Both were OK but mine was the star of the show for me. I chose the Vanilla Oreo Cream which was this delicious creamy vanilla mixture with huge chunks of Oreo cookies. It was smooth, it was sweet, it was delicious. As a cookies and cream fan, this was top notch. They sell lactaid pills here if you need them, to assist with stomach discomfort from dairy. Smooth and creamy ice creams here with a range of delicious flavors. If we'd had time, we would've stopped in every single day!

Ultimate ice cream came up…read moreand after looking at the pictures and reading the reviews we headed out to Ultimate ice cream. The address in Yelp brought us to a blue building clearly marked with the address we were looking for BUT it was a pharmacy. We persisted. We eventually found an ice cream store behind the pharmacy called "The mad dipper". We went in and talked to the young woman working there. She said they used to be "The ultimate ice cream" but they were bought about a year ago and the name was changed to The Mad Dipper." She tried hard to convince us they were the same but after having looked at the pictures prior to arriving I would disagree. We still ordered ice cream and it was good but nothing special. There were a few inside tables as well as outside. It appeared clean but disorganized. The young woman working was kind and polite. She did a good job. Would we go back- probably not. I am still trying to understand how/why the new owners have not taken the time to update their Yelp page. Really poor marketing!

They tried with the outside seating but it's a bit sad. I mean not my h you can do on the side of a hwy. The worker was super friendly and helpful. She directed me to some sample cups behind the counter. I was glad to be able to try before committing. The decor is adorable. It's a periodic table of elements themed. I like that you can see the flavors that they rotate through on the wall- something to look forward too. And the labels are cute and helpful. With the flavors, I was happy but not impressed. The classic tart vanilla is my go to and their only vanilla was super sweet. All the flavors were really sweet to me. They did have some sorbets and ones made with almond milk which I appreciated. The cookies and cream and Carmel and strawberry were pretty good but again, super sweet. They have a ton of toppings. Really any sweet you could imagine. Sadly my favorite (berries) were almost empty and sad looking. If you like cookies or candy though, you were well stocked. The sign on the door advertised an increase in price (isn't that everywhere though?) and we felt it. Each of our cups were a whopping $9. Basically dinner but a nice treat nonetheless.
