Cute decor reminiscent of old time soda shops, amazing ice cream flavors, and a friendly and knowledgeable worker behind the counter. May be my new favorite dessert place!

I have traveled a lot in my day and let me tell you. This is hands down the best ice cream I've had! The service was perfect! The flavors were insane! (HIGHLY recommend the Campfire flavor). So excited to come back again and again!

Just what the lovely Fox Valley community needs: an artisan creamery full of color, personality and local flavor!! Here you can indulge in gourmet ice cream made in small batches. There are a ton of unique and interesting flavors to choose from, and their selection changes just about everyday! Also they offer two samples per person, so I advise that you choose wisely. During my visit, I opted for the eggnog and chocolate whiskey (w/ chocolate crispies) flavors which I never thought would have paired so amazingly together!! I am unfortunately removing one star, on account of perhaps receiving my order on one of yesterday's waffle cones, having been notably soggy (definitely not from the ice cream) on a certain area and just not packing that 'crisp' crunch I had desired so dearly. Having thought about it for awhile, although it was still crunchy, it seemed as rather a 'stale' sort of crunch throughout. I felt somewhat let down, as the aroma of freshly made cones at first filled my heart with inexplicable joy! Perhaps I was simply unlucky with this one. Although the one team member who took care of fulfilling all my ice cream needs was very efficient and hospitable, which I appreciated. The other reason my experience loses a star was due to the hot chocolate I ordered having been mid. I may as well have called it a lukewarm chocolate, considering that was the temperature at which I was served. It also was sickeningly sweet, as if some Russell Stover chocolate from Walgreens were melted in my cup, but maybe I am just spoiled by Chocolat Uzma's one. They seriously make the best hot chocolates and so far no other place within Chicagoland I've visited has topped theirs! But I understand the main focus here is the ice cream, so I'll get back to that. This was some of the most luscious, smooth, and velvety ice cream I've had in all of Chicagoland!! I know I had made excellent choices upon sampling the chocolate whiskey and eggnog flavors. I mean, could I really have gone wrong with any of the other flavors I didn't order, just considering how blown away I was by what I had?? I really liked how both flavors packed the perfect level of 'booziness' without being so over-the-top, still allowing the raw flavors of the decadent chocolate and nutty eggnog to shine through. Although I was not entirely sure how much alcohol content (if any) was in either of these flavors. Perhaps it was 'cooked off' or something. Also I could simply not leave without trying their strawberry peppermint flavor (only sold by the pint that day) which was a tantalizing flavor combination I would've never imagined working in decades! First I was hit with the very jammy (but not too sweet) strawberry swirls, followed by a cool refreshing burst of peppermint. The taste was so remarkable that I had no choice but to down the entire pint at once! I am seriously so surprised I haven't heard about this gem before (considering having been open since 2019). Despite the few minor kinks, at least they were unrelated to any of the ice cream itself. The ice cream, after all, is what makes or breaks the reputability of a creamery, which exceedingly had passed the test here!

We only had the Hot Chocolate, but it was very tasty! And, it smells like Disney World!?

The establishment was pretty and the staff was welcoming however there was no water based (fruit) flavor of ice cream (they had one dairy free flavor made with coconut milk).

Very nice and clean place. You can taste test all ice cream and all of them taste really good. I had the chata ice cream and WOW my taste buds loved it. The employees are very kind and nice as well, they also have seatings so on those hot days you can sit down and relax in the nice cool air.

A cute little creamery in the downtown region with indoor and outdoor seating. The ice cream is really good in richness but I’m just not a huge fan of the cycling flavors (they have mostly unique flavors, not a lot of staples in rotation, which is my preference) and the price is a bit much for a little bit (the cost of small business, so as you reason it) but at least you can savor it. Overall a nice little place, just not somewhere I’d regularly go unless you’re always up for a new experience in place of consistency.

Such a cute little ice cream shop downtown! Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Unique and delicious flavors! We got Fig & goat and Dreamsicle! Pleasantly surprised with both! Would definitely recommend

Love this place! The mango flavor is to die for! So are all the others! A must try in Aurora for ice cream lovers!

Such an adorable creamery with fun, unique homemade flavors. They also have standard flavors. The interior is colorful and cute, and they have a patio with a good amount of seating. The staff are super friendly and nice. And you do get a silver spoon with your ice cream haha!

Nolan Granite

Best ice cream in town! Loads of unique flavors.

Matthew D. Albery

Really good flavors! Key Lime Pie, Rum Raisin, Blood Orange, Strawberry Cookie Crumble to make a few. We were hooked as soon as we walked in, the scent of fresh baked waffle cones hanging heavy in the air. The staff was really helpful.

Great spot to grab an ice cream! We really enjoyed the outdoor seating in the downtown area. The staff seemed super happy and we're very nice to everyone. The ice cream was delicious and we had several options to choose from!
