“Took my toddler here Monday and my only regret with coming here is that we’ve lived in North Smithfield for several years and this was our first time coming! My son (almost 3) loved seeing the cows and trucks that were set up there. We went inside to get a snack and he started having a mini meltdown because he wanted to go back outside. An employee (wish I got her name) came from behind the register and gave him a couple stickers and told me I was doing a great job, which really means a lot when you feel like you’re doing something wrong as a mom. I appreciate that woman more than she realized! 💕 I ordered a cream puff and 2 chocolate chip cookies. When the employee from behind the counter handed me my box she let me know she gave us an extra cookie! The employees really were amazing. My son loved his cookie, and I’ve been dreaming of that cream puff ever since 🤤 we can’t wait to come back and try the ice cream! Great snacks and even greater employees! Thank you for a great day!“

“Went to the shack today, and it was a really nice experience! I love what Alex and his team have done with the place! The ice cream flavors and variety of toppings are very good. The lemonade beats Del’s by a mile! If you’re lucky, you might catch one of their trucks leaving or pulling up. Haven’t gone yet for the live music and entertainment. But this shack is a good option if you’re not able to catch one of their trucks around RI / MA. Stop by!“

“Best coffee in town with very friendly and knowledgeable owners. You will not be disappointed. New to Providence or just visiting, enjoy a cup of coffee and get great suggestions on what to see and do. They are supporters of local artisans for all your souvenir needs. Can’t say enough good things about this place. ❤️“

“Fairly brisk though often a wait to order, and to get order, but plenty of seating and even swing benches available to pass the time & to enjoy your ice cream. Very limited dairy-free options (one DF ice cream, Dole Whip, Italian Ices) so be forewarned for the lactic enzyme lacking. Careful as parking lot is right near seating, but otherwise perfect for kids. Fun inflatables, theme music and good vibes. Closed for the 2025 season, yesterday, November 2nd.“

“We went for ice cream and David made it a very memorable experience! He was very helpful, and made the atmosphere very lively! The ice cream flavors were great !....But David was what made it a wonderful experience! This is a definite must if you are looking for ice cream places! Thanks David!

“We had the ice cream cart (yes, it's a thing) come to our school for teacher appreciation week. The teachers loved it and the staff member, Zee from Ben and Jerry's was so sweet. They also offer ice cream cakes and have an actual ice cream truck (which I didn't know). You definitely can't go wrong with ice cream!“
