It’s delicious, but RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. I got a kids size soft serve with sprinkles and it was around 10$. 𝙼𝚒𝚐𝚑𝚝 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝚋𝚊ck, but Carvel, if you read this, PLEASE lower your prices.

fine ice cream. but extremely expensive. the carvel branch in new york is way cheaper. way better options in virginia than this place. unfortunately very expensive. won’t be coming back.

We visited Carvel in Arlington today and were really disappointed. The prices are shockingly high — nearly double what you’d pay at places like Dairy Queen. We ordered 3 soft serve ice creams and paid $32, which just doesn’t feel reasonable.
We also requested cones on the side, which they completely forgot to give us. On top of that, we asked for a side of sprinkles, and they charged us $2 for a tiny container (photo attached). For the price, we expected better service and portion sizes.
Unfortunately, we won’t be returning. There are better options nearby with more reasonable pricing and friendlier service.

Service was quick. The vanilla soft serve was good, but it’s too expensive. One and done.

SO EXPENSIVE for WHAT? I mean i guess the vibes are cool with all the LED lights but man, this place is just NOT WORTH. NOT JUSTIFIED.

Oldie and still deliciously good.

Being from NY, I love carvel but this location is just bad. $10 for a small soft serve with sprinkles is criminal in itself, but it’s worse when the ice cream is consistently grainy - the vanilla is consistently of poor quality. Save your $$ .

Amazing Ice Cream

Overpriced Mid Waste of time Ordered a Diet Coke float just to have it taste like sparkling water and ice cream, I asked for to have something else instead but nope. The old lady claimed “that’s how it’s supposed to taste”. I mean if u like sparkling water mixed with ice cream go for it. No refund or anything just made me throw that bullshit away. Honesty street water and piss. Cheesecake shake was good though but service, price, floats r not worth it.
Overpriced — ice cream cone with sprinkles was $10. Also, we ordered chicken fingers and they were raw when we bit into them

Make sure you get a receipt. I was overcharged on everything. I ordered small cups of ice cream and was charged for 3 large cups.

Awful. Stay away. Not the same brand. Also, their prices are astronomically high. The ice cream flavors are tasteless.

The service was friendly and fast but the ice cream was not creamy. To put this in perspective, I was on the hunt for something similar to Oberweis. This was absolutely not it. I think Baskin Robbins has better quality than this. Not to mention, I ordered 3 scoops of ice cream. I was given a large scoop of chocolate brownie, a large scoop of cookies and cream, and a baby sized scoop of cake batter ice cream. Definitely not returning. If you’re in the mood for ice cream try a real creamery.
