What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ Great ice cream and atmosphere. Had the Lion King on for the kiddos. Only note I have is that there is no long list of ice cream flavors close to where we walked in. Had to walk through the line and squeeze between people to see what flavors they had. Not a huge issue at all though. Overall, great place! ”
“ Beautiful place. Has kids tables, a big screen with kids movies on. Ice cream selection is great, all the ones we ate were quality ice cream, creamy and delicious. Right around the corner from sound side park, 3 minute walk. In front of a bay side restaurants and a seafood market. ”
“ What a gem! We had stopped at the seafood market across the street and stopped here on our way back. The staff was so polite and this was such a nice spot for a family we came back a few hours later with our whole family! Great prices too and the second time around I got the Pomona colada smoothie with blueberry bobas which I thought was such an odd paring but it was so GOOD! Definitely recommend if you want a change. We enjoyed our ice cream , games and our time spent together here! ”
“ Fun spot to get ice cream and treats! Video games galore, they were playing Incredibles on their projector. T shirts, hoodies and sweatshirts at great prices, too. ”
“ Lots of yummy flavors to choose from and generous servings! The ladies working the counter were very sweet and friendly. There's an area for smaller kids to sit and watch a movie while enjoying their ice cream. Madagascar was playing when we visited. Plenty of outside seating, which we opted for. That was an extra treat because the Crab House across the street had a live band playing. So we got to listen to music. ”
