Customer Reviews
their “the apple” special is genuinely the best icecream i have ever had. huge sizes, great toppings, and the waffle was so soft and warm. came out so quick too. the service was really nice as well.
We stopped in to try a seasonal special called “The Apple”, which was apple pie-flavored ice cream with caramel swirl topped with crumbles of apple cider donuts from Jaswell’s Farm. It was excellent! This was probably one of the best fall ice cream specials we’ve had around RI this season. We noticed that the business has switched to accepting only cash tips for employees (as of October 2025), so if you plan on tipping, be sure to bring a little cash. The service continues to be efficient and the employees continue to be friendly.
Kow Kow Ice Cream is hands down one of my favorite spots in Rhode Island! Their unique and creative combinations of ice cream, waffles, fresh fruits, and nuts are absolutely delightful. Every bite is a burst of flavor and texture—so satisfying and fun. The presentation is just as amazing as the taste. If you’re looking for a treat that’s both indulgent and refreshing, this place is a must-visit. Totally worth it! ❤️
Always packed place, very good sweet treat and definitely filling. Tried the usual with matcha egg waffle cone and black raspberry ice cream which did not disappoint. They are definitely difficult to eat though so keep that in mind and be careful of making a mess 😭
This was my second time here and Kow Kow doesn't disappoint. While they may not have dozens of flavors, whatever they do have is sure to hit! I typically go for chocolate based ice cream but this time I tried the Graham Canyon. I love how fresh the strawberries were. Bubble waffle cone is top tier! Ice cream is great quality! Definitely will return when I am in the area.
