This spot has the nicest staff who make you feel welcome. The dairy-free ice cream is absolutely delicious and vegan-friendly, with lots of tasty options. The atmosphere is upbeat, full of vibrant colors and a fun vibe that makes hanging out here extra enjoyable. Definitely a place worth checking out!
The ice cream was so bad. The woman working there on October 15th at 2pm was so rude.
The people here were so nice and helpful! The customer service was amazing! Lots of cool chooses too. Thank you to the woman who checked us out Aug 31.
GLUTEN FREE WAFFLE CONES!!! This place blew my mind!!! Very kind staff, and a lovely place all around!!! The ice cream is delicious.
Anytime we are on 2nd street, we stop by Yummi Joy for some vegan ice cream. Our daughter loves it, and they make their own gluten-free cones, too. Great place for anyone who has celiac disease. The espresso is great also! Lots of novelty candies and harder to find brands.
Very cute inside, fudge was delicious and wonderful customer service.
Cutest candy store! Loved all the decor and wide variety including coconut milk based ice cream! So good! I recommend the Strawberry!! Employees were very sweet and welcoming!
The vegan ice cream options are amazing. I'm only disappointed in myself for not trying their fudge while I was there. I guess, I gotta go back... 😅
Ice cream is vegan, so be aware of that. It wasn't bad, but you could tell it wasn't regular ice cream. Definitely an acquired taste. But the extensive candy selection made up for it!
Best vegan ice cream I have ever tried.

Friendly employees! Large selection with variety. Ice cream is vegan.
For those with dietary restrictions-
Bad-I’ll start here since it’s why I wanted to post. Ordered vegan fudge. Asked if there were any nuts bc my toddler daughter has milk, egg and various nut allergies. Should’ve noticed a slight hesitation on the workers part but he said ‘no, you’re good.’ Tried it a couple days later, and she had a big anaphylactic reaction 😲. I called manager who looked up ingredients and found it had cashew butter in it. Luckily, I gave her a small piece and had medicine ready to give her to blunt the reaction some bc she had one other nut accident in the past which was a disaster. Ultimately, I hold myself responsible as a parent for my child, and I took 10 percent more lax approach than I could have. I def asked about the ingredients but this time I didn’t have him go in the back to look at ingredient list and was a little too casual with like a 19y/o working. also there was another vegan fudge option with peanuts, so I just assumed after the workers response they recognize ppl want it with nuts and an option without which of course was a wrong assumption. Obviously upset with the worker, but I think the manager appeared upset and said he would tell the worker and staff about being careful but of course can’t confirm that after I had called. But posting so other dietary needy people are aware.
Good-before getting the vegan chocolate with nuts in it, we had tried the vegan ice creams, a few flavors. They really were bomb tbh. Awesome options and every flavor had every ingredient listed. So high recommend for the ice creams. I later pieced together the ice creams were from an outside company that probably is used to dietary related questions so has a little card with all ingredients. Whatever company they get the ice cream from, they do a great job. Probably again a reason I didn’t hound the worker about the vegan fudge ingredients more. But the vegan ice cream company products are more clearly identified whereas the products made in house are not.
Anyway, of course some good some bad. If you know to ask more diligently about ingredients it really was a delicious place. Not trying to overly harp on the problem here but think it’s important searching for allergy related questions.

All vegan ice cream and fudge. Yummy flavors, but the price is way too high for the portions. Toppings are an extra $1-$1.50, but they barely give you any. It's not worth making the trip just for this place, but if you're already in the neighborhood it's a good stop.
I had taken my daughter there to try and make an awesome memory with her and the curly haired man came out of the back with the most smug look and had the audacity to tell my daughter and I that "the chocolate's are kinda expensive...." I was taken aback by his comment that we just left. All I was trying to do is put some joy in her life and he took that moment away. Please have compassion and understanding towards potential customers especially if there is a CHILD PRESENT!

Candy was mid, and a nice variety, but cashier was extremely rude and overcharged 2 bags of candy for 50 bucks. She was also disrespectful and pissy to children. So my recommendation to you is to get some friendlier employees who fit the setting of a candy shop and not that of a Hot Topic.
