Pistachio cookie dough is divine ❤️
Vegan oat milk ice cream choices of vanilla or chocolate base then add in topping from a list of about 30. Makes an ice cream similar to DQ blizzard.

The Red Bean is a cozy coffee shop and ice cream parlor located in Annapolis, known for its friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. The ice cream has been praised as the "best" in Annapolis, with a popular choice being the affogato, which is a scoop of ice cream with a shot of espresso. Customers have described the ice cream as legit, with a deep taste and large portions that can easily be shared. The ice cream appears soft serve but is actually whipped-up scooped ice cream blended with flavors like banana mango swirl, offering a high-quality treat.
The shop is also appreciated for its cleanliness, including the bathrooms, and its unique decor, featuring plush seating and window tables that provide a view of the town. The ambiance is inviting and friendly, with attentive servers engaging with customers. Prices are considered reasonable for the quality, although a small mocha with oatmilk was noted as being a bit steep at $7.63, but enjoyed for its delicious taste. The Red Bean supports local businesses and offers a variety of toppings and pastries to accompany the ice cream, making it a popular spot to relax and enjoy a sweet treat.
