“I have been going to this place since my dad first brought me here in 2000. This guy remembers his regulars even after the season ended and opens up the next year! Now i finally get to take my own kid here for her first snowball! He is very generous with the syrup and toppings. Well worth the money and the experience they give you. 10 / 10 will be going again.“

“I was trying to stay away from ice-cream until hubby stopped in here. We went in and the location is very nice. The young lady was pleasant and allowed us to try a few flavors. The ice cream tasted very good. I got the brownie and ice cream and enjoyed it. Next time I might try the chocolate chip cookie and ice cream.“

We are returning in December with our son, Liam and his fiance will be in from Japan and will join us, as we will be going to the Thames St.Oyster Bar again for another fabulous seafood meal.“

“Very good ice cream and great mission too!“

“Great local spot for ice cream!
Bruster’s in Odenton is one of my favorite places to grab ice cream. The staff is always friendly, and they do a great job even when there’s a line. The ice cream tastes super fresh and there are so many fun flavors to choose from.

I love that they give free baby cones for kids and even little treats for dogs. It’s just a nice place with a good vibe. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area!“

“Karen is an amazing baker. She saved the day after we were let down for our wedding cake. She delivered a beautiful 3 tiered cake. The flavours were a delicious lemon with lemon curd, vanilla and raspberry and chocolate biscuit cake. All our guests were raving about it. Couldn't recommend her enough 😊💕“

“Rita's in Linthicum are always will to give back to the community. In the past they have donated for Vacation Bible School at Friendship Church of the Brethern and today they donated very generously for our upcoming silent auction. Very personal and friendly place to go.“

“Delish and huge portions!“

“What an unexpected delight my stop at Rita's was. I got the mango cherry gelati and it was fabulous. Michelle sold me on it and gave exceptional customer service. I never thought I would like it and now I will be trying it every time I fly through BWI! Give Michelle a raise she is making you money.“

“Baltimore in a Box Ice Cream Parlor is such a fun spot! They offer so many different flavors to taste, which makes the experience exciting. I especially enjoyed the Po-canut flavor — it was delicious, and I loved being able to taste real coconut in it. The variety and quality make this place worth visiting, and I’d definitely go back again.“

“Wow, delicious treats in a variety of flavors and so close to home!! I went there today 6/8/23 for the first time and my family loved it!!! I was feeling barbielicious, so I ordered the Pink Barbie flavor. My family ordered Cherry, Cotton Candy,Banana, and Cake Batter Flavors.“

“We love prigels so much. We go every week! Not only are the staff SO friendly but it’s family owed business and you definitely feel that love. We had a dog that was crossing the rainbow bridge so I went there to pick up some ice cream as a treat. The girl working saw me sobbing, asked and then paid for the ice cream out of her own pocket. Literally. Pulled her wallet out and paid for it. Just a small prime example as to why they’re the best!“

“Absolute best thing in the mall . Never a disappointed. The service is always nice . The located right near the theater. No matter the flavor your choice of ice cream is available and I love that . Definitely would recommend getting a scoop if ever in the mall . The place is clean and such a delight .“

““We used Cold Stone Creamery in Jessup for our employee sweet treat, and it was a big hit! The team made the process easy, and everything was ready on time. The ice cream was fresh, creamy, and absolutely delicious—our employees loved having such a fun and tasty break in their day.

A huge thank-you to the Jessup Cold Stone team for helping us show our employees some appreciation in the sweetest way possible!”“

“First time going to Jupiter’s was on 1/6/24… I've lived Mt Washington-Pikesville area my entire life. Whole Foods has been in this area for many years-my go to market. Jupiter’s has been here as well however the outward appearance of the building didn't seem inviting to me. On the drive to whole Foods I would always ask the question about Jupiter ‘s “why does that building look so isolated, old with a large porch.” One day of recent on my Birthday 1/6 decided to go in to inquire. It was a young guy maybe about 20 just looking at us and never said “may I help you.” I remember asking, how long this place been here and what was the best selling flavor. This young man couldn't answer either question. I then proceeded to order 2 dips, one carmel crunch and the other coffee oreo in the pink, yellow cup costing about $6.50. In spite of the building- Jupiter’s looking isolated and old- true saying “don't judge a book by its cover.” THIS PLACE-JUPITER’S HAVE THE BEST TASTING ICE CREAM I EVER HAD. It’s rich, thick in its consistency-spoon after spoon of pure mouth watering delight. This ice cream isn't loose or soft but quite firm. I have gone back several times since with my daughter and friends. The other times I went customer service was much better with another young man who was very informative and recommended flavors to try. If you are in the Mt Washington-Pikesville area and have a taste for some pure goodness ice cream...try Jupiter’s. You won't be disappointed😊 🍨“

“Always great crabs 🦀 at B&B !“

“The owner was GREAT to work with on a last minute request. A super delicious 6 inch Cookies and Cream cake and some cupcakes. She even delivered it to the restaurant after closing. So glad we found Codetta on Google.“

“Stopped by for a late outdoor dinner. Ordered at the window and staff was amazing and friendly. Amira was especially friendly. We were devastated you ran out of cotton candy ice cream, but we still had a great night with great service.“

“delicious 😋.. Great Customer Service“

“Just had the pizza. Definitely the best New York style pizza around! The owner is very down to earth and very appreciative. 10/10 recommend you need to try the pizza and gelato. Great Baltimore business!“

“I love the snowballs. The customer service can be good some days but today 7/01/25 @6pm. It was apparent she didn’t want to be there. I’ve always purchased the XL even after the price went to $7.90. But I will not pay $8.80 because they charge $.90 for using cash app. $9.00 for a snowball is ridiculous. Back to Jamba Juice I go.“

“This was a great restaurant to stop by during my layover in Baltimore! I was quite starving, but I didn’t want a big meal or junk food because of my upcoming flight.
This place offered an excellent strawberry banana smoothie that helped quench my hunger. A small was 7 dollars.
It was nice getting to watch them peel the banana, which helped ensure its freshness.
The smoothie itself was delicious and sweet with the two flavors popping out every couple sips.
Overall, great place, and if I’m ever stuck in Baltimore with a growling stomach again, I will be sure to return.

*I took a picture halfway through drinking it because I realized it was so good. They did not give it to me half empty.“

“Rita's is my favorite ice cream parlor simply because of their soft serve options! I'm not a big fan of the regular scooped ice cream and much more prefer softer ice cream and foods in general.
My favorite thing there by far is the cookies and cream Gelati! I also love the Choclate - Vanilla - Twist cone (on a cake cone) with rainbow sprinkles! If I'm down for it, every once in a while, I will get the Swedish fish Gelati that has a nice sweet tang to it, and mixed with the frozen creamy custard , it's so perfect!

Now, so far with staff I hadn't had any issues with. According to a lot of other reviews on here, people are saying the staff and customer service are terrible. Most of the time, especially during summer seasons, it's just high schoolers finding a summer job there, and they're pretty friendly to me!

That's all for now, though. I would highly recommend this place, definitely a 10/10!!!!“

“Not accessible.

Incredible food, fresh, nutritious, clean, affordable. There's fresh fruit cut up and ready to enjoy, fresh salads, a menu to order from, and a cafeteria-style buffet.

There's a bakery to die for! I was warned that if I go in the morning the line will be out the door, so consider going later on.

The staff are friendly and effective communicators. You won't be disappointed! Note: If you're white, anything that looks spicy probably is. But the flavour is exquisite.“

“Friendly people behind the counter, generous size servings and some off the wall decorations. Sprinkles, hot fudge, caramel and much more for toppings. There were numerous selections of ice cream, just about anything most people would want.
Street parking only, and it can be a busy road with all the antique shops and clothing stores.“

“The three person staff was absolutely on top of everything. These were the best hotdogs I’ve had in a long time. The hot dogs are fried to deliciousness. I had mine the classic way. The milkshakes are thick and delicious, but the staff is really where it’s at. Kind, helpful, and fun the staff really brings it to work.“

“Like that you can buy syrup directly from them. Flavors are good and sugar based.“

“We just opened our ice cream shop a few days ago (and we serve Hershey’s Ice Cream, of course!) and have received so many positive comments and reviews - both in-store and online - about the the taste, quality and variety. Very happy with this product! Only complaint is we’re going through it too fast 🤣“

“I placed my order of Pecan Pralines, Turtles & Peanut Butter Fudge. Had it shipped to Great Falls Montana, and the order packaged so well that nothing could have damaged it. Love Goodness Gracious ❤️😘“

“My family and I have always ordered Taharka via their Local Home Delivery, this was our first in person visit to a scoop shop. Customer service was excellent and they were well stocked to provide us with samples, scoops, and pints to go. Will continue to recommend Taharka over other premium ice cream brands like Jenis, Salt & Straw, Van Leeuwen etc.“
