“First time trying them out, but definitely will not be the last. You get your moneys worth and more here!! If you leave hungry it’s your own fault. The chili hamburger was messy but oh so good! The fries were the crispiest crinkle cut fries I’ve ever had. (I normally don’t like crinkle cut fries as they are never crisp enough for me. ) I give them a five star rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I’ve walked by this place SO many times and decided to pop in one evening with a hankering for ice cream. When you walk in they had so much to offer - from ice cream to local goodies, t shirts, novelties and homemade baklava. They had a good variety of ice cream flavors and I settled on their chocolate mocha which was delicious! The guys behind the counter were so nice and noticed I was in the food and beverage industry and offered me a 10% discount which was very nice. This place definitely caught me by surprise and I find it to be a really cool local spot right by the market. I am looking forward to coming back!”

“The second you walk into this place, you’re overtaken by the most DELICIOUS smell! It was our first time here, and Caleigh was so sweet and knowledgeable on the products. She told us all about their unique recipes and let us try flavors with zero guilt! They have so many unique flavors and they’re all delicious! Thank you for the very positive ice cream shop experience that didn’t feel super rushed like at other shops!”
Ice cream has always been a beloved treat, offering a wide array of flavors that cater to every taste. Lately, however, the spotlight has shifted to more unconventional flavors, making classic choices like vanilla and chocolate seem ordinary. From ketchup to oysters, here are ten of the most unusual ice cream flavors to try.
Rainbow Cone, a Chicago ice cream shop, is spreading its colorful layers across the country for the first time in its 98-year history. The shop is known for its unique five-flavor ice cream cone, which stacks chocolate, strawberry, Palmer House, pistachio, and orange sherbet in colorful "slices." Since announcing franchising two years ago, Rainbow Cone has grown to 21 locations, mostly around Chicago, but they're not stopping there. They've also opened a store in Indiana and recently made a deal to open 10 spots in Texas.
