I normally don’t take the time to leave reviews, honestly because I have little time for it. With that said, when I came across a review that says I paid this much for an ice cream, I could have gotten it for half that price elsewhere, it was missing something, etc.…. It just sounds like someone has made it part of his/her personal agenda to just bash a business for whatever reason they may have! As a resident of Annapolis, and someone who wants to support all local businesses, I feel compelled to say something in response… I have had not just ice cream, but also pastries, coffee, and pretty much everything you may find at the store on a frequent basis. I don’t think they are trying to be the cheapest guy in town and compete with McDonalds for sure, but their prices seem reasonable to me… I don’t like it, I go elsewhere. You get what you pay for… I actually find it funny when someone claims that the place was not clean, or some of the ingredients were missing! Talk to them, and I am sure they will more than make it up to you, if that in fact did happen. Don’t take people for fools to advertise other places…. Bottom line!

Horrible ice cream. You pay $8 to get a singular Oreo in your two scoop ice cream which was advertised as three. I could get this at McDonalds for half the price… in addition, since the Oreo topping was only tasted at the very top, I asked the employee for another Oreo. She was in the middle of cleaning and placed her bare hands inside the Oreo cookie jar and gave it to me without any gloves whatsoever. Extremely unsanitary. There are other better ice cream places in downtown Annapolis.

Coffee smoothie was delightful and the caramel macchiato was a hit in this freezing 49 degree weather. A great hangout spot with wifi access. It was fun seeing the staff making the ice cream for the other patrons. Def coming back for ice cream !

Great concept and seems to be quality and fresh ingredients. How do I know? The black cherry I added to my vanilla ice cream mixture had bits of cherry pits throughout. So when I tried to eat it I got perilously close to chipping my teeth. Don't get me wrong - it was very good, just had to be very careful when eating. The dark chocolate chips were great so I thought that's what I was chewing a bit. That, or possibly left over toffee from the prior order. But once I looked - definitely curved tan pieces of broken up cherry pits.

$7 for a small ice cream. It tasted good, but it is quite simply not worth $7. If you are a family of 4, four small icee will creams (excluding waffle cones or extra toppings) will approach $30 with tax.

This is my favorite ice cream place. The ice cream is so creamy and you can’t go wrong with any of the topping choices. Affogato is delicious too!!

Best ice cream in Annapolis! Favorite spot to visit when coming to the area, favorite flavor is the raspberry dark chocolate (with vanilla base)!
I stopped in for a drink and got a dirty chai. It was one of the best dirty chai I've ever had. The drink came out quickly as well. The reason for the 4 star review is price. My drink was almost $8 for a 16 oz with one espresso shot. Other than that, everything was great.

Great coffee, deserts, and held onto my in laws sunglasses for us as we ran around town trying to find them after we lost them! Great service, kind staff, highly reccomend the affogato!
