Honestly the best ice cream I've ever had. The Bourbon Peach is amazing. My wife got the Graham Cracker Crunch and that was just as fantastic. They also have donut pops that we got to bring home. Prices are great and the decor is nostalgic. Love the train. There is also a nice play area for kids outside.

Good ice cream and I love the very cool train running throughout the place.

I have been coming to this ice cream parlor since I was a kid , now I am 43 years old . On Father's Day, I had the WORST experience. It was 2 young men working and the way that they were handling the ice cream was disgusting and very unsanitary! They were not wearing gloves! One of them was cutting up brownies putting them in a container with his bare hands while the other one was taking payments and fixing ice cream without washing his hands. He touched the top of my ice cream cone (bare handed) before putting the ice cream on it. I threw my ice cream away, which caused me to waste my money . I am so disappointed and do not plan on going back to this location.

This shop has been a classic staple in the area I’ve been going there since I was a kid. The variety of flavors is amazing, and the options are great. However, over the past three years, there has been a consistent issue with proper portioning, whether it’s pints or razzles. Even during last season’s opening, after ordering three pints, I overheard a discussion between two employees where one had to remind the other to “fill the pints to the top.”
There’s a difference between over-serving and proper portioning, and the latter hasn’t been done properly for years. I normally wouldn’t leave a review, but now, on top of the portion issues, I’ve started receiving incorrect orders. On two separate occasions, either the toppings or the ice cream flavors were wrong.
Spending $9 to $10 on a single ice cream item, only to have 20% missing and the order incorrect is frustrating. The price no longer matches the quality, and the consistent decline in service and product is disappointing. This place has become reliably unreliable it consistently raises prices while lowering both quality and attention to detail.

I was in with my family on Easter Sunday.My son has a peanut allergy, we are aware we cannot eat at most ice cream parlors. As we walked in there is a sign that reads “bomb pops, gluten free, dairy free, and nut free” at the register. I asked the young man behind the counter he said “yeah it’s a popsicle doesn’t have nuts..” i said ok awesome. We get in the car, hit the road, and i open the popsicle and just happen to check ingredients. “May contain peanuts” to my son who is severely allergic he cannot have things like this. I immediately called and explained the situation to a young man and he replied “yeah we don’t really know” and i was just trying to inform them for someone like my son this sign is not correct. The sign needs to be replaced with “gluten free and dairy free” instead. It is dangerous to mislead food allergies. It is my job to read labels which i did. I have called 2 times, both times my phone number was written down and my name or reason why i was calling wasn’t taken down. I have not been called. I Just simply trying to inform others. I do not think it was handled correctly.

My favorite Mecklenburg ice cream shop, by far. Amazing variety of tasty flavors; generous portions; reasonable prices; samples; polite, quick servers who are eager to please; and ample parking.

I have been going to Carolina Cones since I was little! I love it there! My favorite ice cream is Key Lime Pie! I get it every time!
We want to give a shout-out to Henry and Quinn!! They were amazing with their bubbly personalities and their wonderful customer service! They were chatty, courteous and kind!! We always love seeing the employees there, but these two are two of our favorites! They are the two best ice cream-scooping artists in the business!! The way they craft their cones is perfection!!
We love this store and all of the employees that work there. Thank you for being the best ice cream store! :)

I’ve had a variety of ice cream items and all have been so yummy. Atmosphere is a bit odd but I do love the train! This is also the only place in town (that I know of) you can get soft serve in a variety of flavors.
