“Love, kids love, friendly staff !“

“They use carrageenan. Carrageenan is a food additive extracted from red seaweed, used as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier in various foods and drinks. While considered safe by the FDA, some studies suggest it may cause inflammation, digestive issues, and potentially contribute to more serious conditions like inflammatory bowel disease.“

“My husband and I come here all the time. It’s a 30 minute drive for us but it’s completely worth it. I had their seasonal gingerbread ice cream recently. It comes with a gingerbread cookie that’s made in house. Best gingerbread cookie I’ve ever had in my entire life.“

“We rented the ice cream truck for our wedding. It was a big hit. especially for all the kids. They showed up on time and were so sweet. They had all the ice cream in stock and very professional. Highly recommend!“

“What's not to like??? Incredible ice cream, convenient locations all over St. Louis, friendly staff. Always a treat when we go to Clementine's!“

“Cute small shop. Ice cream was delicious. I also tried the Canoli Latte. That was ok, not large or hot enough for my personal taste, but the flavor was nice. My daughter had an iced lavendar mocha, which was delicious. Staff is very friendly and has a great sense of humor. They do cator to GF and VEG as well.“

“I give them 5/5 stars. Their banana latte with lychee jelly is absolutely delicious as well as their chocolate strawberry crepe. The employees are super sweet. I will coming here more often.“

“My two favorites are the bramble berry crisp and the wild berry lavender. The darkest chocolate is really good and pairs well with the wild berry lavender. We recently went and they had a few galaxy themed ice cream flavors. My son got super moon and really liked it. I wasn’t a huge fan be he’s tore it up. I got nebula berry, which was tasty 😋. However, purple star born captured my heart. Sounds weird to say but it was absolutely delicious and I’m thinking about going back to see if they sell this in a pint. Which says something because I can’t stand grape flavored foods -other than grapes- and I loved it so much. Reminds me of like a sprinkling white grape juice. I also couldn’t leave out of there without grabbing a pint of the bramble berry crisp. They have options for dairy free so this is definitely a place I would recommend and have recommended to friends,family and coworkers. You just don’t find ice cream flavors like these anywhere else..“

“Great service, amazing gelato!“

“Scoops of Joy served ice cream to our neighbors in Frontenac at our recent Ice Cream Social and Open House. Not only was the ice cream delicious, it came in ten different flavors! Bridget, the employee who served at our occasion, was delightful, patient and excellent with small children. You will find owner Sandy Daniels to be a friendly and organized partner in helping you to plan your event. I highly recommend Scoops of Joy!“

“Our PTO had the truck out to school. They accommodated a special selection of treats and served everyone quickly. It was a great experience! Students and teachers loved it.“

“Super pricey but good quality ice cream. A good splurge every once in a while.“

“they ice cream is good and delicious. they have good quality!!“

“Olivia at the Cottleville location needs a raise! It was an abnormally warm day in November today and lines are crazy. She is the only one working, and she is hustling with a smile on her face the whole time. Go Olivia!!!!“

“Great Experience!

Authentic Taste: I had the cookies and cream bubble tea and a taro shaved ice (by myself, don’t judge), and I enjoyed both. The bubble tea reminds me of Taiwan. as the boba tastes fresh with perfect texture and chewiness. The shaved ice can easily be shared among 2 people as a fun snack.

Friendly Employees: The owners are very friendly and answer questions. If you know the flavor, texture, and ingredients you want, you can ask them to customize it for you or recommend something.

The only con -
Menu Design: The menu could be simplified as there are too many options. It was very overwhelming to read at first so I went with my regular "Taro" and "Cookies and Creams" flavors. But like I said, the employees are very friendly so that made it less intimidating.

10/10 would come back.“

“I needed a quick Bite and was hungry for breakfast, I was greeted by a worker who said her name was hayley & was recommended the biscuits & gravy. To my surprise its tastes just like something I would make at home myself!! She was so polite which made the food taste even better! Ps if you ask for Modifications they will do almost everything!“

“Great staff and great service. We enjoy them, all year round.“

“I just went to the fountain for the first time yesterday evening. I will definitely be back! If I lived in Stlouis I would go there often but unfortunately I live 2 hours away. I dined there with my sister and two of my nieces. Everything we ordered was so good! The cocktails are very good, especially the Love Potion #9 ice cream martini! We loved the dill pickle potato soup! A must try if you love dill pickles, you gotta try it! The hot roast beef sandwich, buffalo chicken dip, salads and sundae we had were all delicious! Our server was great too. I can't wait to go back!“

“I came in on Saturday and wanted the Crown Apple Cupcake. Unfortunately they were out in the case so I chose the Hazelnut one. When hearing me ask for that the gal in the front of the shop went to the back and they made me one specially. I didn't make a big deal or say anything but it was my birthday and this made my day! Eating it now after a couple days and it's so good!“

“My family and I are visiting St Louis and stopped in Cafe de Blaire for some ice cream. It was homemade and delicious. On top of that, the owner was sooo kind and warm to my kids. She gave me a sample of a coffee drink and it was delicious. I went back today for more coffee. The other worker was there and also very kind. I am a coffee snob and both drinks I tried were GOOD. We will be back tonight for ice cream. 😊“

“Super friendly when I walked in and greeted me. I placed a mobile order and there was about 15 min wait, not too long. I didn’t get the guy at the counters name but he was super nice showing me my order and then bagging it up for me. Definitely gonna order again. Me and my kids love crumbl cookies.“

“We absolutely loved our visit to the Saint Louis zoo! We pretty much plan the local zoos into all of our vacations and this one is by far our favorite! The enclosures were so clean and all of the animals seemed very happy and very well cared for! The reptile house (always our favorite part of any zoo) was AMAZING! So much to see! Shoutout to our train conductor, Danny! He seems to really love his job and enjoys talking to zoo guests! He knows the zoo inside and out! By far the friendliest person we encountered during our whole trip!“

“Absolutely amazing! We did the delivery and pick up of a Christmas tree and we are beyond happy with our experience!!! Our tree is absolutely gorgeous and we can’t wait to decorate it! This just makes thanksgiving a little more magical!!! We really needed that this year! Thank you again!“

“todo esta delicioso vengo de vacaciones y El servicio exelente muy recommendable 💯“
