Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Absolutely delicious, creamy, fresh ice cream. I ordered one scoop of chocolate raspberry and my husband had a scoop of salted caramel cashew.
Mine tasted like I was eating actual chocolate covered raspberries and the taste permeated throughout. My husband’s scoop had so much caramel that he got caramel in every bite.
The reason I can’t give 5 stars is twofold. First, the spoons were so flimsy and the ice cream so dense that it was difficult to get the ice cream out of the cup. I felt like the spoon would break every time I tried to scoop some out making it difficult to eat.
Additionally, I’ve never been to an ice cream shop that didn’t offer tastings of their homemade flavors. I make a point of going to homemade ice cream shops rather than chain ones whenever I can and have never seen a policy like that.
I’m guessing it’s busy enough in the area that they can get away with it, but it makes me hesitate to try new flavors.
Very Tasty and worth a stop though.

Some of the best truffles you can buy. All the candy if hand made and delicious. The chocolate peanut clusters have a slight saltiness that offsets the sweetness. The coconut truffle is dream. Homemade ice cream and a staff who is truly glad to see visitors make this shop a must visit. Right beside the draw bridge in Mystic is a do not miss destination

The fresh apple cider sign in the window drew me in and WOW, fresh, pure and delicious. The clerk mentioned they sourced it from the cider press in stonington and tasted just like the anpple orchards in PA.
And to our clerk, Steve, for treating us with great customer service.
Cute ice cream place right off the mystic bridge with a little bit of this (frappes, coffee, milkshakes, cookies) and a lot of that (ice cream).

Hands-down, the greatest ice cream I’ve ever had in my life! Everything is homemade, friendly service with a smile, and simply put, the most delicious, flavorful ice cream ever. Between my husband, kids, and I, I was able to taste four different flavors, all incredible. You can taste the quality of the ingredients. A definite stop on your visit in Mystic.

This review is based only on the fudge a that is all we purchased. I am not a fudge eater, but my wife is, therefore the opinion is based on what she realyed to me. She found the fudge creamy and they had a varied menu of flavors. The had her favorite, Penuche, a New England regional flavor for sure. he thouroughly is enjoying her little bits of each flavor and especially with the bonus 1/4 pound free with the purchase of a pound (you can split it up into whatver size/weights you wanted0. She ordered 5 (1/4 lb) pieces and even with out the bonus, my wife said the price point was fair.

Our family always stops in here for a treat after shopping and lunch in Mystic. Wife and younger son enjoyed the ice cream and grabbed some homemade goodies to go. I tried the watermelon sorbet which was very good…better than expected. Prices are reasonable for quality.

Excellent selection, I really loved the dark chocolate. Expensive but worth it in my opinion, as some of it is gourmet chocolate. We didn't try the ice cream but it looked delightful, and some other customers commented how much they enjoyed it.

Fantastic homemade ice cream and handmade chocolate confections. Homemade waffle cones are outstanding. Veteran owned/supported small business (former Coast Guard) and a hidden gem that is perhaps often overlooked. Hands down best ice cream in Mystic IMHO.

The strawberry non-dairy ice cream was great. Wish they had gluten free cones though and a few more flavor selections. But it was creamy and delicious nonetheless.

Had the best coconut ice cream ever and the waffle cone was very fresh and not so thick! Hubby had rainbow sherbet and that was yummy as well. Sweet girls at the counter! Great experience! Thanks!

Love this place! They have lots of choices. Eat here or take out. Vegan ice cream options are better than most places. Friendly staff too. Highly recommend.
