Great service! Friendly and cute. Ice cream nachos were great! Would definitely go back if I'm ever in the area again. Really glad we made it a point to try this place instead of the others that were suggested. read more

Great service. Great ice cream. Had a banana split. It was delicious. They were very nice and helpful explaining the menu.

Such a good little ice cream spot- it's honestly my favorite in the area. The flavors are always varied and delicious, service is on point, and the shop is so adorable you could die from smiling too hard at its cuteness. The hours are a little odd- I wish they were open later, but whenever I make the effort to go, it's always worth it! read more

WOW! Yelp is never wrong when a place shows up as having 5 stars! I was in the area and wanting to get some ice cream to go. I looked up ice cream shops on Yelp and this one came up so I decided to give it a try. As soon as I walked in I said "omg this is so cute!". I felt like I had gone back in time. Needless to say I decided to actually sit down and enjoy my ice cream inside the parlor. I was greeted by a really nice girl who asked if I had been there before and when I said I hadn't, she walked me through the menu. You can try up to 3 options which is good because it is so hard to choose! I decided to do the Kitty Kitty Bang Bang ice cream and it was delicious! When I paid I got a frequent shopper card which I was glad because I will definitely be back! Such nice service! read more

Uncommon Cups and Cones - a hand holding a cone of ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - New Albany, Indiana

I haven't been in years since around the time they opened! And I am so sad I missed so many years of having their amazing ice cream. Came with my son and the decor is still adorable! They have SOOOO many unique flavors. I tried the blackberry lemon bar and the banana cream pie. I was stuck between these two. I ended up with the banana cream pie and it was so worth it. Their ice cream is soooo yummy!!! They have different options for different diets. They also sell to go pints of their flavors. I forgot to take pictures and we destroyed the ice cream. We have such an amazing gem here in New Albany and everyone should head there!! read more

Loved the whole experience! Great & unique ice cream flavors, small town atmosphere with fun decor & wonderful husband and wife owner/operators! read more

I'm never on this side of the bridge so my knowledge of anything in Indiana is very slim. Me and my daughter were over there and she desperately wanted ice cream. Seemed a bit cold to attempt Zesto for the first time. I happened to find Uncommon Cups and Cones on Yelp. The main draw? Indoor seating. Once you walk it you are welcomed by a very eclectic setting with a few tables and plenty of chairs. The staff working was all very friendly and answered all of my dumb questions. I went with the girl who was worki g's choice of Yippee Skippy. Super legit. Recommend for sure. My daughter order Matcha and gobbled it right up. Took some oat milk pack cherry home for my wife, and yup, it's good too. They offer a lot of ice cream options I've never seen...ice cream nachos! They had waffle cone chips, so the idea is definitely intriguing. Would go back again. read more

This shop has the best vegan/dairy free ice cream I've ever eaten. I travel across the US often and tried several dairy free ice creams. Uncommon's ice cream texture is smooth and creamy and the flavors are so satisfying!! The shop is cute and the customer service is outstanding. I highly recommend this place! read more

We are from out of town and looking for a sweet treat after dinner. The ice cream wasn't too sweet and the flavor options made it do everyone in the group could find something they liked. There were even dairy free options! The staff was so friendly and allowed us to taste a few before having to make a final decision. The shop is very warm and inviting. If we had a cooler we would be taking some pints how with us. read more

Uncommon Cups and Cones - a coffee shop - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - New Albany, Indiana

First, the atmosphere is so unique and fun. I get my ice cream served in a cup because I love that they serve it in teacups. The place is just so cute and the owners and staff are always so friendly! You get to sample 3 different flavors before deciding, but it is still difficult because they are all delicious! Plus they have a banana pudding milkshake that it my husband's favorite. I have been here many times and tried so many flavors... and every one of them is outstanding. If you are looking for a sweet treat, don't miss this gem in New Albany! You won't be disappointed! read more

I found out about this place last summer by seeing it on someone's Instagram story. The first intrigue comes with the name. I tend to like my things unique and this place says that their cups and cones are Uncommon. Sold! I'm trying it out. It's tough to choose a flavor here(they have so many!). I haven't had a disappointing flavor yet. The first time we kept it simple... cups and cones of what we wanted. Another time, we took a group and ordered a flight! They have flights of ice cream here! You get 8 scoops for a decent price... it's literally only 7 or 8 bucks for a flight. I'm tempted to order a flight when I go by myself. The place feels homey. If it was more comfortable, you could stay in there all day eating ice cream. My favorite thing about this place are the waffle cones and the smell. I brought it up on a visit and the employee mentioned how they were baking in the back so I think they make their own cones. From the smell, you can tell that they do. Things are tasty here... including the smell! The cones also aren't hard... they crumble as you bite into your ice cream... perfection! It's also next to the donut shop in New Albany so look out if I ever catch both of them open at the same time. This is easily one of my favorite ice cream shops in the area. I wish it wasn't a trip to the other side of the river. Anytime I'm in the area, I'm stopping in without hesitation. Notes: - The price is right. - Street parking but it's New Albany. You aren't going to have an issue finding parking. - They have an upstairs that you can rent out. - The employees seem happy here. - At least 20 flavors(if I'm remembering correctly). read more

While on vacation, visiting the grandkids, we stumbled upon this unique ice cream shop. The owners, greet each visitor to their shop. They have 28 flavors, most very unique. We tried two of them, Zoreo, chocolate with swirled marshmallow, Oreo's and chocolate chunk. Also, Mackinac Island Fudge, vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge ripple, and chunks of chocolate fudge. We recommend these or any of their other unique flavors. They also offer the traditional vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. Any of their flavors can be made into a milk shake, sundae's or even a banana split. The shop is decorated uniquely with off set table and chairs with a welcoming vibe. If your in the area, stop by, say hi and enjoy a wonderful ice cream experience. read more

After a day of errands, my friend and I decided we wanted something sweet. We danced around with ideas, when my friend thought of a new spot called Uncommon Cups & Cones. I'm not going to lie; I hadn't heard of it. I feel like as being a Wisconsinite, I'm pretty well versed in the ice cream department. This was a new one. And let me tell you how thrilled I am that we visited. The building is bright teal - I love it! It makes it easy to find and stand out from the busy streets of Vincennes Street in New Albany.  We parked and hurried in. This ice cream parlor is unlike anything I've visited here, with a quilt-like design on the ceiling; with bright, welcoming patterns, ice cream scoopers decorating the walls, a variety of mismatched, antique tables and chairs gives this place a cozy feeling! I could have sat in the comfy armchair indulging in ice cream all day.  A stairway to additional seating also can be used as a meeting room.  I think I need to have some of my work meetings here - who's going to say no to ice cream midday while discussing appropriate behavior? The owner, Kim B. is the sweetest! She welcomed us and explained we could sample any flavors we wanted. I actually tried 3 - Banana Cream Pie, Muncie Madness, & Raspberry Rhapsody.  All divine - ended up ordering a half scoop of Munchie Madness & Banana Cream Pie (went well together nicely.)  I am a sucker for a homemade waffle cone, but I opted for the ice cream in a cup. Lucky for me (and everyone who orders their divine ice cream in a cup), the ice cream is served in a tea cup with a wedge of their homemade waffle cone!!   During conversation, I mentioned that I loved the Zanzibar Chocolate but hadn't seen it since I was at The Chocolate Shoppe up in Wisconsin....to my happy surprise, Uncommon Cups & Cones gets their ice cream delivered from Wisconsin!  I'm telling you; you can't get ice cream this creamy or flavorful anywhere down in 'Kentuckiana.'  Uncommon Cones & Cups needs to be on your dessert list of go-to's for ice cream!! read more

We had a blast celebrating my nieces birthday at Uncommon Cups and Cones. They had all the classic flavors but also a big selection of decadent twists like fat Elvis, kitty kitty bang bang and "exhausted parent" The room upstairs was perfect for a small group of 10-15 kids. 10/10 quality, service and kitsch! This place is a gem you'll be glad you stopped in to visit. read more

This place is all my dreams come true! Such a cute little shop and the ice cream flavors are out of this world. I got a scoop of kitty kitty bang bang and my husband got a brownie sundae. I kid you not, we have both found our new favorite desserts. We have since told all of our friends about this place and we can't wait to walk here during the summer. read more

Terrific ice cream and cozy little atmosphere. Great unique selection of flavors too. Reminiscent of Comfy Cow when that was in New Albany. read more

We were looking for a different place to have a dessert and we happened on this place. The way they sever their ice cream in different cups and bowels was a neat touch. The cappuccino ice was delish and we were all happy with our choices. read more

If you're looking for an ice cream parlor that features charm, delicious ice cream and great pricing look no further. This gem is set a few blocks off New Albany's downtown thoroughfare but well worth the stop. We've been no less than a half dozen times since they've been open and have yet to be disappointed. The sizes are generous but reasonable (I truly hate having to get giant sundaes I can't hope to finish) and all your ice cream is served in darling vintage tea cups (plastic for the kiddos). They'll gladly let you sample anything in the cases and they offer both classic flavors and a wide assortment of trendy/wild flavors. The banana pudding ice cream is just delicious and tastes like REAL banana, not fake flavoring. The tired parent is always a win with us as well! For 2 people don't expect to spend more than $10 at most, we normally pay around $6-7! read more

Uncommon Cups and Cones - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - New Albany, Indiana

The people who own this are so kind. We went when they were having a kids' Christmas craft day. They provided free hot chocolate, coffee, and crafts for the kids. Their ice cream is super affordable and perfect for big families. The inside is charming and so sweet. This place is a must visit. read more

This place is the cutest most quaint ice cream shop you'll find. I went the week they opened a couple years ago and had great service. Even though it was somewhat busy. Tried multiple ice creams and never felt like I was rushed. I have been back multiple times and have never been disappointed with my ice cream pick. They had a stand at Harvest Homecoming two years ago and they had THE BEST ice cream Ive ever had. It was a fall special, a caramel apple concoction that I've never had anywhere else. I don't usually buy the same thing multiple times/days during Harvest, but that year I had to. My favorite part is the cute little tea cups they serve them in. Along with the adorable china bowls. I haven't been able to frequent this business since the quarantine, but with things looking up I plan on making a visit. I hope they stay around for a long time. read more

Great stop across the Ohio River from Louisville! Stopped here while visiting Louisville so I could count Indiana as a state I have visited. It's my rule that you have to eat something or spend the night for it to count! Perfect spot to do that and worth the drive :) read more

Stumbled across this ice cream shop with my family and it is a complete gem. The atmosphere is beyond charming and inviting and the ice cream flavors are phenomenal. It's a quaint main downstairs sitting area with extra seating upstairs. The upstairs would be such a sweet spot to host showers or birthdays! The owner is so warm and welcoming that you feel you have known her for years even on your first visit. My son got the classic Superman, my daughter got the Mango Sorbet (mouth watering) and my husband the Fat Elvis. All we would order again... and again! Highly recommend buying local at this sweet place read more

I love this shop! The ice cream is truly wonderful. They serve scoops in teacups and also sell pints to go. Today I went for the second time and although it was different staff, they were just as polite and welcoming as the first time. Green tea, Elvis and Yippee Skippee were all delightful. Reasonable prices and a homey atmosphere make this a true gem in the community! read more

Excellent ice cream spot. Such a cute little shop. Look for the blue building across from the marathon. I had the espresso ice cream in a homemade waffle cone. Please stop by, you will throughly enjoy! read more

I am SO glad we tried this place out tonight. After our annual Thanksgiving Eve pizza at New Albanian pizza we headed here for some ice cream. It was our first time and we were sweetly greeted and they explained a little about the shop and told us we could try any flavor we wanted. I tried the smores and that was as far as I needed to go...that was my flavor of the night. My friends ended up with mint avalanche (apparently great if you like mint), Zanzabar chocolate, and the exhausted parent. Everyone was very pleased with their choice...and the atmosphere...so cute! The ceiling is covered in quilts and the farm doors...love. We were told if you get a cup...they actually serve it in a tea cup. My favorite thing about the menu...they offer an ice cream flight! I can't wait to try it...I wasn't up for it tonight...but I will be back to try it...how fun to have a flight (8 flavors!)! The staff said they had only been open for six weeks...but I hope that they do well...New Albany NEEDS ice cream...and this place is perfect! We'll be back soon! read more

The best ice cream in New Albany is at Uncommon Cups and Cones on Vincennes St. next to Honey Creme Donuts (on the high school side of Honey Creme). The ice cream is delicious, the names of the flavors are hilarious, and the way the place is set up and decorated is like taking a trip back in time. Check it out! read more

What a gem of a place. Great ice cream great atmosphere. Stumbled on to this place, going to be regular stop from now on.
