CASH ONLY but amazing ice cream. Rotating homemade soft serve flavors and hard ice cream too. Don't bother with Purity--this is the true pinnacle of Ithaca ice cream. Also, you can stand across the street from a strange church and read the inscriptions.

I don't usually like soft serve but the cookies n cream flurry won me over. I kept coming back until they closed for the season. We just got free pints of peppermint chip today which was a very nice surprise on my birthday. The texture and flavor are really unique, it might be the best ice cream I've ever had.

This is my favourite, go-to ice cream place nowadays. There's often a line but it moves fast. Parking is relatively easy to find. It's a pretty cute stall/shop on the corner with some picnic tables available for use, within walking distance of a park. The ice cream itself is a dream for any soft serve lover- light, airy, affordable, and you can smother it in sprinkles or chocolate shell. My personal favourite is the blackberry yoghurt (I think that's the name? It's been a while) with sprinkles or chocolate shell. The employees are also super kind. I love this place for a quick pick me up after a long day and recommend it to anyone in the area.

The peanut butter strawberry sundae was phenomenal!

A must visit for us anytime we are in Ithaca. Cash only and always has a line but this is a testament to how wonderful their product is. The best soft serve around. The flavors are on point. The texture is light. They load on the toppings. My fiancé got the homemade lemon ricotta (not pictured in review) and said it was the best ice cream he has ever had.

Great quality and great on a hot day! Variety of flavors, with chocolate, cherry, and another kind of dip for the soft serve. Would recommend!

Regular customer. Checked the hours on the website before driving in. "great, open till 9pm,i have time to get there". Pull up 6 mins before closing. Lights still on inside and out and customers in the parking lot eating ice cream. And they just turned away 2 customers. Literally saw us walking up, closed and locked the windows and closed the shades. Even knocked on the window and showed them my phone showing they were closing at 8:54pm. And 2 more customers walked up and were turned away while I was trying to get their attention!! To add insult to injury, while they were slamming the window in my face, they put out a wooden sign showing their hours were till 9pm :(Disappointing.

Cash only but saw it was delicious so we got some cash and came here. It was good! Definitely worth it. Perfect for our last night in town.

Average and overhyped. It's like a McFlurry but with more options

Great ice cream, possibly Ithaca's best. Worth the line on any given night. It does not disappoint.
One of the best ice cream I’ve ever had
Smooth and relishing ice cream! Must visit when in Ithaca. Close to Ithaca commons, easy parking. Cash only!
Sweet Melissa's has the best vegan ice cream made with coconut milk cream.
Quickly moving line produced two scoops of great ice cream. The portions where generous and flavors were really diverse.
