The chocolate ice cream is the blandest I have ever had and when I got the fudge dipped cone, it was so freshly dipped in hot fudge that when they added the ice cream, it was a huge melty mess...and I eat fast! I had to eat it so fast that I couldn't savor the ice cream, which was only disappointing because the salted caramel oreo ice cream was actually pretty freaking amazing!

Awesome shop. Fresh brownies! Chud was super helpful.

I have passed this little shop everytime I come through town and finally took the time to stop for a scoop of ice cream. I ordered a small huckleberry and vanilla ice cream in a cup with fudge sauce, as well as a pup cup for my dog. My dog seemed to enjoy his ice cream, but he rarely every complains. As for myself, the lady handed me a cup spilling over and dripping with ice cream and fudge, proclaiming that the fudge sauce was homemade and the best around. I wish I could say that excused the mess, but really a few napkins won't make up for overfilling a 10 Oz cup with ice cream and what might have been fudge sauce. I tasted the fudge sauce first and really just didn't enjoy it. Personal opinion is they made it to say it's homemade and save money on what would have been a better flavor. I approached approached counter again quietly and explained the situation. All I wanted was the same ice cream without the sauce. Considering the small business and the fact I just paid 10 dollars for a messy 10 Oz cup of goo and a snack for my dog, I really hoped for a better answer than what she said. She looked at me and said "Sorry, no give backs. You can either buy a new one or scrape it off." I replied "wow, what a guarantee." She tried to sell me up on another 8 bucks of ice cream, which may have been good without that brown sticky goop, but I didn't have the additional 10 minutes for another simple transaction. I was really disappointed. For such a cute little shop, their customer service is lacking.

I love a good espresso milkshake! The book store was closed because we got there kind of late but will be back to visit.

Coffee is delicious, ice cream slaps, books are plentiful. I found a great Psychology book for the flight home. Cute shop. Prices are more than a thrift but it's worth it to support the business.

My boyfriend and I went out there the other day. I love the atmosphere! So many kinds of books without over crowding the place. The woman serving behind the counter was very kind- and my bf said the ice cream was good. Can't wait to stop by again and pick up some the tea they had for sale there.

We’ve passed this place many times and finally stopped in for some ice cream. The gentleman behind the counter scooping had zero patience and made the experience awkward and negative.

Ice cream was good! Service was lacking. The lady behind the counter was having a bad day. She didn't like when first time visitors had questions. She was very annoyed by simple questions. Sure doesn't make anyone want to come back the next time we are in town.

We made a quick stop for some coffees for the road. The mochas were some of the best I've ever had, not overly sweet and just the slightest hint of cinnamon... perfection!
