“The team at this location was extremely helpful, communicative, and easy to work with for a corporate catering order. They talked through options to ensure our event was a success and most importantly, that Italian Ice was easy to serve and didn't melt if left out for some time. Will be working with them again in the future.“

“Sarah's ice cream caused confusion to my all time favorite flavor. Rose Pistachios, Earl Grey Speculoos, Hazelnut Biscoff, and Bluberry Swirl are some of evolving favorites. Cannot wait to try new monthly flavors. It's true joy to have local and the best ice cream store near by!“
“Carmen's Best shaved Ice I ever Had In my life I say this because It was just so soft and smooth. The service was Really good The co workers were very patience with me I was so Indecisive Cause they have so much flavors. I love how they let me pick 2 flavors with no charge too I wish it was closer to Frederick. I think Carmen's Italian ice is way better then Rita's to be honest.“
“Future patrons of Crumbl, beware. These cookies are gigantic mounds of addictive deliciousness. More like 4 cookies in one, we like to order the 4 pack, divide the cookies into quarters, then share each one. We can't go too often if we want to keep somewhat fit, but these are a yummy treat every now and then when the flavors of the week look irresistible.“
“We've been going to The Scoop for about a year. We found it on a hot night and Googling for ice cream.We love The Scoop! The ice cream is delicious, and we know we will always have a fresh scoop of ice cream. Prices aren't bad, particularly for small batch ice cream, but the quality makes it worth it.Excited for it to warm up some more, and we will absolutely be going regularly!“
“My husband and I love this place & always recommend to our friends who haven’t been yet. From the gelato, to drip coffee, gluten free brownies and breakfast sandwiches and burritos, everything is SUPERB! Yesterday we ordered the breakfast burrito(comes in spinach wrap), waffles & breakfast tacos with bacon added. As usual, everything was fresh, quick & filling! Kevin up front is always great to chat with & super helpful. The other young ladies are also friendly, hardworking & keep the place so neat & tidy. Stop by!!“
“I heard about Levain and was in the Bethesda area, so I had to make a stop. As soon as you walk in, you’re hit was amazing smells of baked goods and fresh coffee. The options are simple and straightforward. The staff was all business; get you in and get you out - order and move out of the way.I tried four different cookies. Were they worth the hype? Yes! Absolutely! Maybe some of the best cookies I’ve ever had. At $5 a piece, they’re expensive but worth the cost. I will definitely visit again when in town and look forward to trying other options and flavors. Thanks.“
“Sometimes it’s weird not being greeted when you arrive.The strawberry pretzel pie cookie is amazing. I have been making strawberry pretzel pie or what we call pretzel salad for 20 years. Let me tell you they nailed this one. I mean nailed it. It is as good as the original thing!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Crumbl.“
“Who would brave ice cream in -15°C weather? Apparently, adventurous souls like us! Our visit to Bruster's Real Ice Cream was an unusual but delightful experience, even in the freezing cold. Despite the shivering and teeth-chattering, enjoying their delicious ice cream in such extreme conditions added a fun and memorable twist to our outing. It's a testament to the quality and appeal of Bruster's ice cream that it can be thoroughly enjoyed even when the temperature is well below freezing. For those willing to embrace the cold for a tasty treat, Bruster's Real Ice Cream is definitely worth the visit.“
“Finally got by to check this place out a d was not disappointed. Grandma, Posh and her son were all very nice and d personable. You can tell they take pride in the ingredients they use as soon as you bite in. I had the Cheesecake waffle with strawberries and a scoop of soft serve and it was amazing! Definitely going back!“
“Is it risky to get all 6 and share with friends each week? Yes. But what is better than rating the cookies? We've rarely had cookies we dislike so much we cannot finish and it's fun to see how creative they can be! Often, the sweetest sounding ones are the most well “
“I haven't been here in a couple of years, but I LOVE the new flavors. I got a cup of the guava and can't wait to get the passion fruit next time. I'm so happy they are diversifying the flavors, but I of course couldn't leave without a pint of the rum raisin. They make their own ice cream so it always tastes fresh and doesn't have that artificial flavor some places have. It's definitely a must try for any dessert lovers who find themselves in the Montgomery county area“
“I have only been here a few times. On this visit, I was in the area and decided I wanted a gelati. I enjoyed one at their other location earlier in the month and thought it would be fitting to get the same size here, but different flavors. Here, a small gelati is $6. What I got may not have made sense together, but it didn't matter to me as gelatis are growing on me. For the custard, I got Nutella & Butterscotch. You can get it separately or in a swirl. I opted for the latter. For the Italian ice, I got cherry, and it came with bits of cherry pieces as well. For those that don't know what a gelati is: it's custard in the cup first, then Italian ice in the middle, and then more custard on top. The concoction of flavors together was great. I enjoyed it. Who does not love Nutella or Butterscotch...yum. I enjoyed the cherry pieces as well within the cherry shaved ice.“
“Yummy froyo place in Bethesda Row. Smaller array of flavors but they are all so delicious! Also includes vegan froyo options like sorbet. Good topping choices with a clean hygienic self serve area. Super nice workers who let us sample flavors before we actually got them. Yummy and good music taste. Very clean interior and perfect stop while shopping around Bethesda Row. Really want to emphasize how kind the worker was!! I think his name was Pablo, he's so sweet and seems to really care about the store.“
“If you're a fan of matcha, this place is a must-visit. Personally, I always opt for their ice cream, and it never fails to impress. While more topping options would be a bonus, the overall experience is great. The vibe of the place adds to the enjoyment. Five stars for consistently delightful matcha treats and a wonderful atmosphere!“
“Definitely try the Hazelnut Crackle ice cream – it's a winner. The folks working there are pretty friendly. Heads up though, even though pour over coffee is listed on the menu, they said they don't actually serve it. Ended up with a Decaf Americano instead, and honestly, it was pretty terrible.“
“This was my first time trying this flavor and i would say it was really good. Service was great, staff was nice. If was a cute little ice cream joint. I always loved the inside of Jeni's. Back to the ice cream: I don't remember the full name but it was rainbow yogurt. The texture wasn't like your normal ice cream but it was more on the yogurt side with tons of flavor. The waffle wasn't the greatest, not sure why. Maybe it was an off night or something. Overall, jeni's ice cream is always on point! Thanks!“
“Every trip to Gaithersburg must include a visit to TFR in Laytonsville! Found a unique gift I have never seen in another shop and will be making a friend smile. TFR owner was so warm and welcoming! Her smile radiates her passion for creating a space filled with acceptance, creativity, laughter, and warmth…just like a family room. Can’t wait for my next visit!“
“We came here after dinner because my girlfriend wanted a birthday cake dipped cone and I wanted to try the peach cobbler blizzard. We both really enjoyed the items we got and service was prompt. Visit was too short to speak on much else as we did drive-thru but it was a cool visit.“
“Great, locally made ice cream. They've got a wide selection of flavors, including some less common options like honey lavender. The service was amazing, and the gentleman who helped us was very patient with our kids. They've also got books and board games available in the seating area.Kid-friendliness: Very patient service, let the kids sample a couple flavors when they couldn't decide.“
“I love Ben and Jerry's and am so happy they have vegan options at their scoop shop.This location has a small seating area. About 15 people could eat indoors. When the weather is nice there is plenty of outdoor seating.The employees were very kind and helpful. I came with friends and they had so much patience handing out samples and answering out questions about the vegan flavors and which cones were vegan friendly. I got the nondairy Whirled Piece and the nondairy chocolate chip cookie dough on a sugar cone. The ice creams were great! You would never know it was vegan: the cone tasted a bit stale. Next time I visit this location I will either get a cake cone or just a cup so I do not have the disappointing taste in my mouth of an old sugar cone.“
“Loved my second visit here with my hubby this time. I ordered the same thing again with different toppings-- the Strawberry Lady consisting of strawberry ice cream, whipped cream, marshmallows, and fresh strawberries. My husband got the Reese's Blast that had lots of chocolate and peanut flavors to it. Both items weren't overly sweet which I really appreciated. The order can be placed by using the touchscreen or by letting the cashier know. The price can be a bit extra except it's worth it. Our two ice cream orders came out shy of $16 but it comes with at least 3 free toppings of our choosing. The only gripe I have is parking. The lot in front of the store is perpetually full. It's best to park across the street if able.“
“Our family has tried the chocolate stracciatella, mint stracciatella and strawberry. All so creamy and delicious! More importantly, the customer service is amazing. There have been delays with mail delivery in our area so Gemma personally drove to our home to deliver our gelato to us. AMAZING! We will definitely be ordering more.“
“I definitely recommend, it is always very clean there. The customer service is also very good they’re very kind employees. Everything there taste really good for the toppings the strawberries are so good and are fresh. I love it there and I will definitely be going there more often specifically in the summer time. ??“
“I can't give 5 stars to a place that charges $10 for a Gelato, but I guess EVERY business gouges in Bethesda. Nonetheless, once you go to the bank and get a HELOC to pay for your Gelato, it it some of the best Gelato I've had, and I've been to Italy. Rich, creamy, flavorful, fresh, and Hugh quality are some adjectives to describe the Gelato. Definitely recommend.“
“The Baked Bear is a great spot for those who love the classic combo of cookies and ice cream. The service is always quick and efficient and they've mastered the art of pairing freshly baked cookies with a tempting selection of ice cream flavors. If you're feeling a bit adventurous, give the brownie bowl a try - it might not be the first thing on your radar, but it's a hidden gem. The only downside is the limited space; when it's warm they don't typically offer indoor seating and ordering but when the weather turns chilly they do open up the inside. Not an every day thing but really good for a once in a while treat.“
“We had been disappointed when this BR had to leave Cabin John Village. We had been told it would reopen at Seven Locks, but when it didn't happen for a while, we feared it might never do so.So we're very delighted to find it here, still serving great ice cream. Understand, not every BR is the same. The ones that are half Dunkins just aren't nearly as good. This is the full-store BR, the type that is increasingly hard to find. The kind with the full array of BR flavors and tons of ways of serving. I find that the ice cream at this kind of BR just always tastes fresher and better than at the half-Dunkin ones.My opinion is that BR ice cream (at least at this type of store) compares favorably with its premium ice cream competitors, while offering lower prices. Pralines and Cream is still my favorite! But there are so many terrific BR flavors: baseball nut, jamoca almond fudge, chocolate peanut butter, etc. Still great after all these years.“
“Pros:*Ordered small scoop of Dairy-Free Mint Chocochunk. Ice cream is made w/coconut milk + tasted fresh/creamy. *Large assortment of flavors (30+), including rotating seasonal options.*Renovated, clean store w/ indoor seating.Cons:*Limited Dairy-Free Options (Mint Chocochunk, Sorbets, Smoothies)*It's a basic ice cream shop - no real 'wow' factor in terms of product, preparation, or presentation.*Product melts quickly - it would be nice if the cups had better insulation for to-go orders. Overall:Popular ice cream chain w/ clean store, friendly service, + reliable product. Employee told me the store has been in business at this location for 50+ yrs. If you're just looking for a simple, affordable cup/cone of ice cream, I would recommend going to this Baskin over others in the area.“
“Well stocked, good rotation on seasonal drinks. Very well priced for the area. Very convenient if you live in the building, as the mini mart is stocked with a variety of goods you might need in a pinch. Bar has a decent selection on draft for a bar this size and has a good atmosphere, especially on the weekends. Great place to watch a Brazillian soccer game.“
“Great neighborhood cafe with amazing value sandwiches. My corned beef on rye was stacked high with lean corned beef, and was delicious. My friend's steak and cheese, on a proper roll that could stand up to the filling, was near Philadelphia quality.“
“Great desserts that you can have plain, coated with toppings or have a topping drizzled on itOn the hot weekend day we visited. It was Really crowded. Tons of flavors, and lots of topping choices. Service was excellent even though they were very crowded. I recommend the tiramisu.So stop on by and give it a try.Parking: Large parking decks and some street parking.Kid-friendliness: Great for kidsWheelchair accessibility: On same level as street.“

“My favorite go-to Rita's in the area. A quintessential marker of summertime, you can never go wrong with Rita's. This location in particular is stellar due to the fantastic service. I've tried the twisted custard cones and the custard with mango ice. Everything I've tried I would most definitely get again!“
“Wow! I am so happy that I took a chance and entered this bakery. Can't speak Spanish, but that was OK. There are some servers that can speak English. The pastries are so delicious, and FRESH!! You can taste the freshness. And the selection is phenomenal. You really can't make a decision. The prices are the best, better than Safeway or Giant individual desserts. The best part is that the pastries and cakes are not that sweet. Don't get me wrong, you know it is a dessert, just not over-sweet like tons of sugar was added. This is my dessert place for sure. Luv it, ❤️ ?Parking: The store is located in a shopping center. There is plenty of parking.“
“If you’re at the Rockville Town Center and looking for a cheaper dessert place with quality ice cream and a ton of add ins, then look no further.This place has a delicious in-house ice cream experience with tons of add ins for cheap prices.I got a small (which was honestly pretty big compared to other smalls I have seen) signature mix for only about $5!For all the sizes you get, you get unlimited add ins or a choice of a signature with suggested toppings already mixed in. They also provide smoothies, shakes, cakes, and pints to take home as well!“
“Cute little shop will the best booba in Rockville Derwood area. Love the shop and set up. Amazing ambiance. During the summer you can make your own ice cream, literally. I highly recommend it. You will love the variety of tastes, tropical mixed with asian flavors.“
