I had the cookie sundae, which was the perfect size and tasted like Biscoff. My friends had the Jitterbug shake and the seasonal cake sundae which was a Peach cobbler. The Peach cobbler sundae looked like it came on a fried donut and had incredible flavor. It is a small menu and like others have said, there is no indoor seating, but it's a charming spot for sure.

Instead, the guy working behind the counter looked like he would rather be chewing oyster shells than scooping ice cream. I usually let things roll off my back, but this kid hated his job and his life. Never greeted us, never spoke to us, unless it was a clarifying question. Seemed genuinely annoyed and put out when we asked about trying a flavor, to which I almost called him out when she was being nice and patient and placed the scoop on top of the cone with nothing inside the actual cone. No pride or care, just a check mark. At the end of the day, the ice cream saved the experience as it was welcomed and put my frustrations at ease. Rich and creamy with lots of ingredients in each bite, but I think we'll try the Creamery across the street next time we visit Alexandria.

Perfect ending to a perfect date night with my boo thang!…read more When we first started dating 12 years ago this was one of our favorite spots! They use to have this toasted almonds ice cream that was soooooooo good! That's what kept us coming back!! Would even catch water taxis from Georgetown to come over for a sweet treat night cap! Not sure if it's removed from the menu but when they stopped making that one we stopped coming. Would've been an awesome surprise to come and they had it yesterday however they didn't so a scoop of pistachio for me in a waffle come and a scoop of banana pudding & vanilla for him. Was crazy busy but it was a Saturday night in old town...what else would you expect. Staff are always super friendly and helpful. We were in and out in no time. Happy Yelping!

We were a bit disappointed that the only custard flavor was a chocolate vanilla swirl, but all four of us gave it a try. The vanilla custard was great, but the chocolate custard just wasn't good. It was bitter and artificial-tasting. I'd be willing to come back and try their ice cream but will pass on the frozen custard.

I'm literally standing outside the store typing this so that I would not forget. My friend and I walked into the ice cream parlor and not one person spoke. There were a multiplicity of workers standing there and not one looked up or even opened their mouths. We noticed but decided to still look around to see what we were interesting in purchasing. Yet and still, no one offered to help, no one said anything. The moment another group of ladies who walked in, who were not African American, things quickly shifted. Eyes were perked up and mouths opened to acknowledge them immediately. We decided in that moment not to purchase a thing. I am appalled at this behavior and will never support this business again and yes, it is that serious. Be careful who you hire.

Seating inside is somewhat limited. Fortunately, there's a nice backyard with additional seating so you can enjoy your sweet treat outdoors.

Another beautiful impromptu date find!…read more Service: this is a small business and the service was friendly and good Orders: I ordered the Oreolato and Dubai Pistachio Chocolate-OMG! Both were DIVINE! My boyfriend ordered the Tiramisu and Coconut- Another DIVINE mix! The gelato were delicious and for the low cost, we received 2 hefty scoops. The backyard seating was a great touch to relax and enjoy your desserts and there were additional seats inside the shop and in the front of the store. Overall, I would say that this spot was worth the visit and it's within the vicinity of other great dessert shops. Happy to have found this place and cannot wait to return.

I stopped in on a Saturday night. It was almost 9pm and I didn't realize they were about to close…read more There were so many options for what to get that I was a bit overwhelmed and it took a moment to figure out what I wanted. Not because of the flavors, but the ways you can get your sweet treat (like, cone, cup, sundae, etc.) and other various options (like ice cream, sorbet, custard, etc.) I sampled a couple of sorbet flavors and ended up with a small cup of those two flavors. A small cup is two scoops so it was perfect! The flavors were Lemon Lavender and POG (pomegranate, orange, guava). At first I think I liked the lavender best, but as I continued to eat, I think POG stole the show. They were both refreshing and flavorful and I appreciated the blends to give my tastebuds new flavors. Del Ray is such a cute neighborhood too. I sat outside at the tables/benches to eat. If you're planning a visit, their website is pretty slim and doesn't list all the options for getting a sweet treat. I do think it would be helpful for it to include those options. But others have posted pictures of their menu so you can search for that.

The server person was clearly impatient with him but made me a little uncomfortable. I got the "Kit Kat" ice cream sandwich. It came in an Oreo wafer and was chocolate custard and was hard as a rock, plus was bland. I had to go back in and ask if it was actually the right thing, since it was so unrelated to KitKat. The cashier guy said yeah, it is KitKat. I told him it was nasty. It was $7.70 when all was said and done. Don't be back.

Loved the shop, the colors and setup would have made our granddaughter smile. The Staff (2 young ladies) were super friendly and helpful, one of them gave us a little history of bakery and how they rotate flavors. Service was awesome. We were able to select (two) cupcakes (for the tour), we choose a red velvet and a Boston creme style. I loved both, definitely the best cupcakes we have had in the DMV. Way better than the ones we tried in Georgetown. I liked the box/container that was used for our to go order. I would suggest that the swinging sign be replaced (missing) as it would definitely draw more attention from the passerby.
