We thought were going to be small but ended up being a lot larger which we were happy about. Breading was perfect. People friendly. Happy with our passing visitParking: At the front and side. About 8-10 parking spaces in front”

“I had the most delightful experience at this ice cream shop! From the moment I walked in, the aroma of freshly made waffle cones filled the air, and I knew I was in for a treat. The selection of flavors was simply astounding, from classic vanilla to exotic options like lavender honey. I opted for a double scoop of salted caramel and cookies 'n' cream, and I was in dessert heaven. The ice cream was incredibly creamy and had the perfect balance of sweetness. What truly sets this place apart, though, is their attention to detail. The toppings bar was a dream come true, with everything from hot fudge to artisanal sprinkles. The staff was friendly and patient as I crafted my masterpiece. Whether you're a die-hard ice cream aficionado or just looking for a sweet escape, this shop is an absolute must-visit. I can't wait to return and explore more of their delectable offerings!”

“Must visit this place to get served with such a great desert.I enjoyed "Kesar Almond" and "Gulkand" flavours in icecream."Gulkand" is heavy compared to "Kesar Almond"Vegetarian options: All veg only option”

“Truly a hidden gem. Nothing like finding the best ice cream in Hamilton at the back of a tiny convenience store.I wonder if they make their own ice cream because it's unlike any ice cream I've had in Hamilton, very rich and creamy and not overly sweet. I got vanilla ice cream and each bite surprised me with how fresh it tasted.Watching the man make the rolls was also a unique experience. Quality was top notch and I will definitely be back to try their many unique flavours.”

“No photo to attach surprisingly; but definitely recommend stopping here for ice cream. Lots of flavours to choose from. The wait is a bit much, but that’s because everyone wants to get some! You can’t sit inside; incase anyone was wondering. Grab and go.”

“I recently ordered the cutest custom cake for my birthday. Owner Angela's kindness, promptness, and creativity truly made this experience wonderful, and my guests loved the cake. Forever recommending Crumbled to all my friends & family!”

“As the name suggests, you really get big scoops of ice cream. It is really good and by far the best one I had in Hamilton.If you are going to this place, make sure to park your vehicle somewhere else as they do not have any parking available nearby and they won’t let you park in front of the building.Definitely recommended place for ice cream.”

“Was so thrilled I came across this delightful vegan desert vendor at the Burlington Vegfest this yearEvery treat looked absolutely incredible and it was hard to make a decision. I went with the Chocolate dipped Ice Cream bar Creamsicle flavour. Boy was I blown away! Omg this was the best ice cream bar and flavor I ever came across.Decadent and delicious flavor and pure joy to eat. I wish I came back and tried more treats. The bakery is vegan, gluten- free, nut-free. Everything and always as there website proudly boasts. The quality is truly amazing. Will be definitely visiting their new home on Ottawa street when it opens. Thank you for making me your new fan.”

“This place has some of the best handmade ice-cream I've ever had! It's rich, creamy and the flavors are put of this world! Try the mixed nuts ice-cream and nescafe ice-cream. We also had the caseta and the arabic ice-cream which were just fantastic!”

“The ice cream ? was amazing and the atmosphere was perfect! I'm glad we didn't order dessert after dinner and that my wife had already looked you up. We'll be back again the next time we're in Hamilton. I highly recommend giving them a try. You won't be disappointed. Keep it up!!!”

“Here is another little hidden treasure for people wanting to cool off or just enjoy a great ice cream cone. The people that run the place are super friendly and love seeing people enjoying their products. They have a huge selection of ice cream and toppings. Even tiger tail that I find hard to get. I had a scoop of tiger tail and a scoop of Spiderman. Awesome choices. And they don't give a tiny scoop , they are old school and give you a huge scoop every time. Worth the visit and definitely I'm going back soon. Lol maybe today.”

“Amazing Ice-cream!! Unfortunately I forgot to take photos but they were absolutely delicious. My friend and I had the Nutella Crunch and peanut butter explosion, and they were soo good. Big portion sizes were a regular and it feels like you got your money worth for sure. I was helped by Courtney, and she was so nice, and as was my first time here, she talked up the sundaes. Thanks so much!!”

“My first experience of rolled up ice-cream at their booth in a Christmas market and I did like it as expected. I would have loved to see more variety of flavoures- to be more specific more chocolate centric. Which they might have at their actual shop location.”
