We got a shake and all the mix ins from the ice cream were pulverized and not taste-able. Where we come from the shake still has the chunks of the mix ins.. very expensive for the size too. But still enjoyed it! The staff was very happy and enjoyable!

We’ve bounced around to a couple other ice cream spots in the area and every single time say, “we oughta just stick to the local scoop” and I think by now we’ve learned our lesson. Everyone is always super chill and I appreciate that my partner who can’t have dairy can finally have plenty of options like me, my spoiled dairy eating self.

Feel pretty lucky to have a spot with so many dairy-free options. Vegans and lactose-intolerant folks take notice; this place slaps. Favorite ice cream spot in Maine, and it’s close to home!

I am a biiiiig ice cream fan, and I’m super selective about the ice cream I like. I visited here during a trip to Augusta and was not disappointed at all. The flavors are awesome and super fresh. There’s a lot of non-dairy options. The workers are incredibly kind. To make it even better, there’s seating outside along the water. I will definitely visit here again!

Their selection of dairy free flavors is amazing! I've visited twice in two nights because it's such a treat for those of us who can't have regular ice cream!

Oh man, this place is overwhelmingly good! They have something for everyone! Also, their portions are huge, and the gentlemen at the window was so helpful and friendly! I had the gimme s'mores. It was delicious 😋 Worth the stop. Highly recommend.
