Still great 40 years after first going there! This is the OG flavored waffle cone and mix-ins place before it was even a thing. Quality ice cream, solidly good flavor, nice staff. Don't be fooled by the fancy gelato and Asian ice cream shops... Have the real deal legit quality ice cream here.

I don’t really like any of the flavors, but the ice cream was pretty good. Overall the guy who was working there was awesome super friendly super patient.

When thirsty and craving a little treat for walking from Boston Common, the Freedom Pathway, there is this cozy ice cream shop to cheer ^&^

Frankly I don’t trust this place. They seem to think that vegan means gluten free, and they gave me the wrong ice cream flavours. Bizarre experience, but the ice cream was decent.

Ordered an extra thick milkshake and got a very milky water consistency shake that wasn’t full. Didn’t want to go back to get it fixed because there was a line and I felt rushed by him.

Cute little ice cream shop, but definitely a bit overpriced for what you get. One scoop in a cup is about $6.50. If the quality matched the price, I’d be all for it, but I have had better ice cream that’s slightly cheaper. They have some fun flavors though! I got a double chocolate with cookie dough.

A few vegan options, but the one I had was absolutely incredible - chocolate peanut butter fudge. Some of the best vegan ice cream I’ve had, and my partner said the dairy ones were great as well so a good option if you need omni choices as well

I spent $19 on two double scoop bowls. It was not very good and it was so hot inside the store we had to leave.

Delicious homemade ice cream in downtown Boston. Don't be confused by the sign in front that says "Vegan Ice Cream." Most of the flavors are regular, but they have 1 or 2 vegan flavors, too.
