A cracking little spot with a big choice of flavors. We enjoyed our ice creams at about 5pm on a Monday and the place was quiet.
The views are amazing and sitting with the water splashing against the window was a nice way to finish a few days in Cape Ann

Asked in the morning what time they were open until- they say 10pm. Walk by at 8pm 2 nights in a row and there closed. Would be nice if I were able to try it

Definitely a tad over priced but that's to be expected in a touristy town like Rockport. I got the purple cow and it was delicious and very refreshing on a hot day! Not a lot of seating inside but there's plenty of places nearby to walk to and enjoy it. The girls working there had a great attitude and were very accommodating.

Cute little shack with friendly service. I didn't know what to pick because everything looked yummy. One of the girls recommended salted caramel truffles ice cream and she was right, it was divine. I ordered a small ice cream in cup and for me, I found it was a lot. I shall be back!

Highly recommend the lemon ice cream. Can't stress this enough.
We couldn't get any lemonade, owing to apparent lack of cups - on a Saturday morning, so I do have questions about effective management. But they definitely do not apply to the ice cream.

All the ice cream here is that in which you could expect if you've visited a roadside ice cream place in New England.
My ice cream was great, though strangely there was a hunk of ice in it.
There were a couple of young girls here working hard. They were moving the line and accommodating customer requests with good attitudes. It's small and cramped and they made it work. Good to see.
That said, it's a small place. Eating options inside are limited. The view from inside out over the water is incredible. We took our ice creams away and chose to walk down the street that's lined with shops and galleries.

The ice cream is ok, compared to all the north shore ice cream places, it’s nothing to be excited over. The medium is the size of a kiddie anywhere else. Honestly, not a great place for families. The location is what keeps them in business.

I received belmont coffee. You can also leave the taste to the staff's discretion. I went after 4pm on a Saturday, so many flavors were sold out. I went with a group and tried various flavors, and they were all delicious and not too sweet. Even though it's small, it's large, so if you're eating it after a meal, it might be a good idea to share.
Wheelchair accessibility: There are steps before entering the store, and the ordering counter is narrow, so I think it would be difficult for wheelchair users to enter the store.

Don’t understand the hype, the portion size’s big but taste is artificial and there’s too much additives put in, the consistency and taste don’t say it’s good quality ice cream.
Rapper Review!Local guide here,We visited this shop the other night in beautiful Rockport. The shop was clean and they served us pretty quick. Little on the pricey side for the size you get. I ordered a medium and my son got a small and it was the same size for different prices. Quality was good. Salted caramel truffle for the win. Other than that one thing I mentioned, I would recommend this to those visiting the area. Enjoy.
The creamyest ice cream I've had
