Fantastic ice cream. The oatmeal raisin cookie will now require a regular March pilgrimage as it's one of the special flavors that month. This ice cream is smooth and flavorful. Mix'ins are an option. The kidde cup is substantial. If you want a treat head over now

We have lived in Milton for 20+ years and continue to love this place. The staff is always very nice and the consistency of the product and experience is everything we could ask for.

really really loved this place!! everything about it was so goodthe front of the shop gives a classic old vibe and the inside is small but feels quaintly cutethe people working there was also super friendly, funny, and conversational and enthusiastically gave flavor recommendations and samplesand finally, the ice cream itself was also soo amazing, I would go back so often if it weren't so far away. I got blueberry, strawberry, and banana, and the flavors were so fresh and refreshing. you could taste that it was made with actual fruit!! and honestly didn't expect it but the banana was my favorite flavor (the employee recc'ed it so I had to trust)solid portion and reasonable pricehighly highly recommend!

Get the cake batter ice cream with marshmallow topping! It's sure to satisfy any sweet tooth! Best cake batter ice cream I've ever had.

The ice cream here is so delicious! Although there may be a small selection, anything you choose will be amazing. I love coming every month and stocking up on their new specials. Helpful, patient and kind workers as well!

I didn’t like the service unprofessional.We just get inside and he keep asking me what to order I didn’t even get the time to look at the menu I asked him for a minute to look at the menu but he keeps asking what to order it’s like he’s on hurry.We was the only costumers at the place so no rush.

Wifey has been wanting to take me to this old school ice cream shop because they are supposed to have bomb strawberry ice cream. It was good, but I think I prefer haagen daz because it doesn't have chunks of strawberries. It was solid but wifey overhyped it. My bro in law got the birthday cake ice cream. It was filled with chunks of cake and the best way to describe it was he inhaled it. It was one of the best ice creams he's had in a while.I'll come again and go for the blueberry since that seems very popular. The small ice cream is plenty of ice cream unless you want to have ice cream as a meal.

Wonderful, family owned ice cream shop in the historic Lower Mills section of Dorchestor. Freshly made ice cream with special seasonal flavors.

The classic American icon of an ice cream shoppe. The servings are larger than expected. The flavours are typical of the Boston area featuring coffee, walnut, and sweet cream. Birthday cakes are also available as is an ice cream of the month subscription.Parking is not available with limited street parking for the brave. Likewise you'll only find a single bench outside for seating.I highly recommend a visit to The Ice Creamsmith accompanied by a stroll. Yes, it's worth it.

Lovely little place with a yummy selection. Great staff. Cute vibe. Reasonable prices- we stopped going to JP licks and come here instead. Only downside is the seating is limited (just a couple tiny tables). We go often!

Just the perfect little local ice cream shop with all the charm and delicious homemade ice cream. The lemon custard was just perfection - creamy, lemony, rich, and not overly sweet. The serving sizes were decent for the price you pay. Going inside feels like stepping back into a Time Machine (in a good The kids running the counter were friendly and helpful. There are two small tables inside and a bench outside for seating. I typically don't find street parking hard to come by but you can always go down and park by the CVS if needed.
