Getting ice cream while in Almonte is a must. There is literally nothing like walking around with a…read morecone in your hand and the biggest scoop of ice cream on top of it. They do soft serve, milkshakes and flavored ice cream in either a cup, waffle cone, sugar cone or regular cone. I got the JR strawberry cheesecake in a cup and it was just enough to fulfill that ice cream craving. The kid got a JR soft serve in a cone (it was a nice size) and the hubby got some maple chocolate ice cream in a waffle cone. No long lines on a Saturday afternoon. Friendly service. Super quick to get our ice cream. They don't have picnic tables out front, but there are benches all down mill street to sit, or you can walk and browse with your cone. We chose to take ours back to the park and sit under a tree.

As a kid we use to go to Peterson's in Almonte. Was nice to see an ice cream stand back when I came…read moreacross this some years ago. They were so friendly and gave little candy flower on Mother's Day. Little touch but sweet. Just went today on my birthday , treated my youngest and myself. Two small cones. It came to $14. I think she heard wrong and I corrected her that one was a kiddie size. To my shock it was still $10+ for a tiny cone and what was suppose to be a single cone. My adult son remarked it looked like half of my 'single' scoop fell off before they handed it to me. To make things worse I tried to enjoy the falls with the kids and then got a hair in my mouth. I looked and there was a hair twisted into the cone and ice cream. That marks the end of a special treat Ice cream there. Wish I'd taken photos of previous scoops from prior years to compare. But for $6 this is unacceptable.

This place used to be good. Not anymore…read more Went with a group of friends after a day of boating, which is tradition for us. I ordered a hot fudge Sundae, no nuts and no cherry (please) with hard ice cream. An older gentleman was serving. He made a joke, "no whipped cream too?". I laughed an said "lots of whipped cream please". He then proceeded to make a sundae with alot of nuts. I gently reminded him for no nuts. He then hands me a sundae with virtually no fudge and with a cherry. I request more fudge and no cherry. Pictured is the final product. This constitues a hot fudge sundae at Scoops There were 6 others with me. atleast two complained of stale cones and the chocolate "tasted off". The 10-year old in the group was disappointed with her cone. It's hard to make a 10 year old not like an ice cream cone. This isn't the first time we've had issues with this place. I thought it was a fluke or a bad day for the server. Tonight confirmed that it's not a fluke. Needless to say, the boating tradition is broken. We won't be back, after years of loyal service

Delightful! Staff is super friendly and speedy, the line…read moremoves just fast enough to decide what you want.

Carp Custom Creamery has been a long time staple in the Ottawa Valley Region for their commitment…read moreto serve handcrafted ice cream with unique flavours for everyone to enjoy! Whether it is the summer or cold winter, Carp Custom Creamery is available for a quick service to enjoy straight from when you receive the cone from the counter to even taking a pint home to enjoy at your own pace. Whether it's soft serve, hand churned ice cream, or the smell of fresh waffle cones, Carp Custom Creamery has really impressed me! In conjunction with Cheshire Cat Pub, you definitely need to try the Sticky Toffee Pudding flavour which has big chunks of the sponge cake pairing well with the butterscotch based ice cream! In addition, the coconut ice cream is always very refreshing with fresh coconut shavings adding a nice palate cleanser! I can't wait to go back soon!

What a lovely treat. Staff were friendly. There were 4 different vegan options for gelato. I had…read morevegan chocolate and kiwi (two separate flavors). My husband tried the cherry and the blood orange. My nephew had the salted caramel (non vegan) and thought it was a bit salty. My mom had the chocolate truffle (also non-vegan) which had chunks of truffle in it. She loved it. They have all sorts of coffees and pastries and sandwiches as well as some dry goods like pasta and other things. A great little place. Can't say that it is the best gelato I've ever had, but we'll worth the visit. Servings were quite generous too. My cup of gelato overfloweth.

What a fantastic new addition to the Arnprior downtown!…read more This is a fantastic local ice cream shop that uses fresh local ingredients to make their deliciously smooth ice cream. These flavour ideas are delicious! Some I've never heard of - like crab apple, and sea buckthorn which was so fruity and tasty! They openly offer samples of whatever you would like to try. The menu changes every week, so there's always something new to try. Pints are also available in the freezer for self-serve. They also offer coffee and hot chocolate (for those who fear cold foods in cold weather? Hahaha) No need to rush off! Don't forget to check out the back patio! It's super cute with lots of seating and free water. Best of all, the owners are super friendly happy people that are a joy to chat with! Can't wait to return for another scoop!
