Brought a friend here for the first time recently and they loved it! This is the perfect little ice cream spot. So cute and unique!

Creamy, ingredients listed, good service, made in-house, fresh, delicious overall! Definitely recommend the banana flavor as well as the coconut flavor. Will need to come back!!

Strawberry dairy-free ice cream treat with tasty crumbles (July 2026)

Standing in a long line later at night among college students and families during a recent visit to Austin, I was wondering if it was worth it for Zeds and overall, the answer was yes. We tried both their custom ordering and one of their blueberry-based specials and were happy with both. Since there were some in our group that were lactose intolerant, we were not sure how their dairy-free, vanilla-flavored base was going to mix with the selected fruit and how the texture was going to be, but we were pleasantly surprised. Various excellent toppings to choose from as well for both additional flavors and textures. The blueberry-based special was also excellent and was a good combo that imparted a cool relief for a hot and humid Austin night. Hope to get back to try other combo's and options they have at Zeds

Perfect Place for dessert in this hot weather. The ice cream is delicious! I really like that you can build your own or you can choose from the given options. Lots of outdoor seating. Parking is limited but people are constantly coming and going so it was pretty easy to get a parking spot. Ordered the Toasted Blue Coconut And Toasted Blue Coconut subbed Blueberry for Strawberry ice cream and added pecans. They were both delicious. Pet friendly. There are two food trucks and a coffee shop on site!

I can truly say this is some of the best ice cream I've ever had! We went on a Saturday evening, super close the closing, and the line was scary. However, the group in front of us said that it shouldn't be intimidating, and the ice cream is 100% worth the wait, and even gave some recommendations for what to order. Dare I say now, I wholeheartedly agree. The ice cream is so good, it's creamy, delicious, and natural! We ended up waiting about 20 to 30 minutes, the line was all the way through the outdoor dining area near a few closed food truck style restaurants. The lot is small to park, however, you can street park down the road, and it's a quick walk. You'll also be able to vouch for getting to enjoy a larger size than I did, if you park farther down because I wish that small was a medium after we got it. The small we shared, was the vanilla ice cream, with the strawberries mixed into the soft serve. Initially, we thought it would be a topping however your fruit is added directly into the soft serve, which was unexpected but amazing! We also got that with their homemade chocolate sauce, and Oreos. It was so enjoyable in the Texas heat and ended a great night, this dessert is at the forefront of my mind now when I think of Austin, also, the girl working, the counter was super sweet! It was still humid out, and they were putting away the water. She still gave us two ice cold cups for free, which were much needed and super refreshing after standing for a bit. The combinations are endless, but I have no doubt every single one is phenomenal.

I really love New Zealand-style ice cream because they blend real fruit directly into the ice cream, which makes it taste fresh and flavorful. I first tried it at a shop in San Diego and loved it, so I was excited to see a place here offering it too. I visited with my family, and we ordered several items. I got a small vanilla with pineapple, which I was excited to try. I understand they were busy, but I did notice the blending machine wasn't cleaned between every order. Because of that, some of the flavors seemed to carry over. My ice cream had a slight strawberry taste even though I ordered pineapple. It wasn't noticeable in every order, but it did affect a few of ours. While it may not bother everyone, it can impact the taste and could also be something to consider for customers with food allergies or sensitivities.

I didn't look into what exactly this was prior to getting there, people in line behind me so I felt rushed in figuring out what I wanted. My bad....what a neat ice cream concept this is! Fresh fruit, blended into the ice cream. So many toppings and sauces to get as well. We had banana and raspberry, chocolate and caramel toppings, gummy bears, toasted coconut and cheesecake bites. All delicious! The sitting area has plenty of shade, little covered turf area for little ones to run around. Only complaint is all the tables needed a good wipe down, lots of sticky ice cream remnants and food spills. There are a couple of little food trailers there too.

The ice cream was alright, nothing too impressive. I have been to other places that have a little bit more creamy consistency and would prefer them over this place, but still a good spot to come if you are in Austin and wanting to get a nice cold ice cream with fruit blended in and some great toppings.

Martha L.

What a delicious delight that ice cream was the softest jumpiest trip of flavors ! I can't believe it is real fruit ice cream I got the banana ice cream and it had included little chunks of it. Ice cream shop was a full run being a cute corner ice cream shop tucked in a neighborhood shared with other food trucks it felt close knitted. Service was quick too no more than five minutes way less than ten minutes all together but I was here midday.

This was my first time visiting Zeds Real Fruit Ice Cream in East Austin. When I arrived at 11:30 pm, they were not serving ice cream. It appears Noon is the bewitching hour for serving ice cream at this Zed location. I had only been to the Zed's in Tarrytown, which does not serve coffee. I ordered a white blond, which was a latte. The latte was Luke warm and lacked flavor, so I had hazelnut flavoring added. It still was not appealing. I only drank about half of the latte and threw the remaining amount away. There were some mothers and children having a play date in the outdoor area.

So good! We must've came at a really great time because as soon as we ordered, the line became extremely long. The ice cream itself had the perfect sweetness and could be customizable with the base, syrup, and toppings. Street parking wasn't too difficult to find and there was entry of outdoor seating.

Raspberry with chocolate and bunelos
Soraya S.

So fresh and yummy. Chocolate made in house daily and you can tell. The bunelos were so crispy and added the perfect crunch.

Zeds Ice Cream is phenomenal! Came here around 8 PM on a Monday night and there was quite the crowds of ice-cream enthusiasts waiting to get their ice cream. Parking here is a bit limited but there is plenty of street parking available in the immediate area. The ice cream selection is unique: Pick your size, ice cream flavor (one fruit flavor mixed with either regular or dairy-free vanilla), then you add your desired drizzles and toppings. I ordered the Waffle Cone with strawberry flavor, chocolate + peanut butter drizzles, and cookie dough bites + Oreo toppings. It was quite the size and packed a punch! The wait is about 10-ish minutes after you place your order. There are plenty of picnic styled benches to sit and enjoy your ice cream. Highly recommend!

I got the banana pudding special and it was so good. I love that the ice cream is not super sweet and has real banana flavors.

I was in Austin a few weeks ago to see some friends who live there now. When one of my friends and…read morehis wife found out where I was staying, they told me that the Air B&B I was staying in was close to Radio Rosewood, and that I should check them out. I did, and fortunately, Radio was walking distance from where I was staying. I prefer tea over coffee, and the black tea did absolute wonders for me. I loved that they offered a free refill on drinks, because that caffeine helped me stay alert and awake after some mild jet lag and for all the things I was looking forward to doing during the day. Since my friends had to work, I had time for myself during the day, and getting my caffeine fix helped me with the day. The place is not too loud, aside from customers placing orders and the drinks being made and the music playing. The staff was really helpful and friendly. I 100% recommend this place to anyone passing through Austin, moving to Austin, or whatever else.

We stopped at Sour Duck Market before a concert at the Moody Center and it ended up being such a…read moregreat choice. We got there during happy hour, which runs daily from 3-6, and had the burger and fries along with the open-faced summer sando. Both were amazing- the burger was so good, and the summer sando was fresh, flavorful, and a nice lighter option. We also shared a bottle of rosé, which was perfect before heading to the show. They also have a really large outdoor patio, which gives the whole place such a relaxed, casual Austin feel and makes it a great spot to hang out when the weather is nice. I also love that they have an in-house bakery and make so much from scratch. Everything we had was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and we'll definitely be back.

Okay, so this is my updated review for Sour Duck! I went back with some friends for book club and…read moreeasily found parking in the small back lot! It was busy but I just got lucky. In the past you could show up and find a table outside! Sadly that is no longer the case there was a line wrapped around the door so there was a wait for both indoor and outdoor seating but once our names were on the list we were seated inside quickly. I ordered the happy hour burger which was $6, incredible price but I found the burger sauce to be overly sour! It needed some sweetness to balance it out. The fries were good but definitely over seasoned. The HONEY CAKE was incredible!!! Just a delicious fall day in a dessert. Cinnamon, fluffy whipped layers of cream, with crumble in top--PERFECTION. The sour dough loaf is was delicious too! Friend and I got it to go. I feel like the bread is fairly priced at $7 for a loaf. Service was much better this time around and although they were extremely busy my food and drink came out quickly. I ordered the Apple cinnamon daiquiri (tasted like an apple tini) $6 on HH! It's tiny and packs a PUNCH! I could only finish half of it but then again I'm a light weight so go try it for yourself! The kids are still an issue running around unsupervised but all around it was a very pleasant experience!

Cute neighborhood bookshop :)…read more Lots of community events for adults and kids. There's always something for everyone. They carry a lot of book titles and if they don't have it in store, you can order online as well. They also sell notebooks, cards, merch, and lots of knick knacks. Seating inside can be limited but there's lots of outdoor seating too. There's a parking lot across the street if the parking lot next door is full and they also have lots of neighborhood parking. Overall, great place to browse books, stationary, read, and grab a drink!

There was also a semi-small outdoor area that promoted or facilitated an area for people to converse. There was books on the inside and I must say... its like a more local, mini startup of a bookstore like FOX, Borders or Barnes and nobles. You have books and a coffee shop. They had some pastries and very little amount of edibles but the Dirty chai was wonderful! It was not so sweet where your teeth is about to decay with every sip! Although, it was still premixed with sugar... Now... The ambiance was lovely. It was a quiet kind of charm and, can be peaceful. In short, overall: Parking 3/5 Customer service: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Quality: 4/5 Grade: A Definitely worth a visit!
