BE CAUTIONED: the ice cream sandwich is messy. Very busy place but it’s perfect. The ice cream sandwiches are the best I’ve ever had in my life, and it was worth the cost and wait. It’s just over 8 bucks for an ice cream sandwich without additional toppings (1.09 per topping), of which I shared with my wife.

Cookies and ice cream hit different, my favorite combo has to be a chocolate chip cookie and mint chip ice cream sandwich. So good.

Gluten free and dairy free option for my wife, heck yeah. Highly recommend this place for friends, family, and/or kids. Huge ice cream sandwiches with plenty of options to choose from. Staff is efficient and polite. Had to go back a second night b/c of how good it was the first time.

Took the family for dessert. Really good! I had the butter cake cookies with the almond brittle cake ice cream. Such a great pairing! It was about 9 per sandwich though.

Exceptional! They had a customer appreciation day giving everyone free ice creams and waffle cones. Nothing held back. Heaping scoops for any flavor you like. And so tasty. Highly recommend!
