We loved it here!! The ice cream is not only incredible, but the flavor offerings were so unique and delicious! Biscuit and concord grape ice cream?! Are you kidding me?! Incredible! We ate ours so fast that we didn’t get any photos of it but went back for a juniper latte and it tied everything together. The owners are as sweet as they are good at their craft. Can’t recommend this place enough!

I absolutely LOVED coming here! The aesthetic of this place is beautiful in every corner. I tried 3 flavors before opting to go with the Cherry Noir in an Orange Soda ice cream float (Definitely recommend). It was very delicious. Also, they have vegan options such as Cranberry, Mismo and Ginger.

Oh boy y’all this place is wild I was not expecting to be this excited to talk about ice cream. I live in Richmond and drove down just to try and I will be coming back again and again. I tried their ice cream, sorbet and espresso and I couldn’t stop asking them questions about how they make everything. From hand making the marshmallows in the Mexican hot chocolate ice cream to freshly baked biscuits and concord jam for their southern breakfast biscuit ice cream—I don’t know how they do it?? Anyway, I’m a huge fan and highly recommend coming with friends so you can try a bunch of flavors.

Hands down some of the best ice cream I’ve had! Great flavors, smooth texture, and a fun, welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend!

★★★★★ 5.0 Becky Anderson · Jan 2026

Best ice cream ever. Kind, helpful, and knowledgeable staff. Cute shop. We tried the limoncello, the brioche French toast, and the olive oil vanilla - all were amazing. Can’t wait to go back!
