The Purple Donkey

Stay away: RIPOFF ALERT! And the ripoff is out of this world: two small (smallest they have) ice-cream portions - one scoop each, with some sprinkles - $14! No joke. And, as if that wasn’t enough - when you pay, they are soliciting for a tip. Tip options are 15%, 20% and 25%. A tip for scooping the ice-cream out of a box and placing it into the cup - a 5-second hand operation. That’s, apparently, a full-service restaurant level gratuity situation here. So, just to reiterate: two one-scoop sized cup of ice-cream will run you $17, with the tip. Never again! I a shop two blocks up the road charges third of that. (This place is advertised on the street as Surfside Shakes)

Love these shakes. Got the Peanut butter explosion oh so good!! Got to try it out

This place is a hidden gem. We rode our bikes here and sat outside and enjoyed the ice cream. The owner is very friendly. I had a hot fudge sundae and added bananas and extra hot fudge. It was so good. The whipped cream tasted like my mom’s so I’m guessing it’s homemade. 😊 If you’re visiting Flagler stop by, you won’t be disappointed.

While I really enjoyed the sea turtle theme, my friends and i were underwhelmed by the ice cream. They had no chocolate ice cream because they had run out and hadn’t ordered yet. I ordered one of the shakes (the Sea Turtle, I think) and it was 50% nuts, which was a bit much. My friend’s ice cream was 50% syrup. If you like the syrup that goes with ice cream more than actual ice cream, this place is for you. But if you are looking for premium ice.cream, I’d go to a different place.

The ice cream was so good! They had a wide variety of flavors of sundaes and shakes as well as cookie sandwiches. I would say the price in f is pretty average compared to the other ice cream shops in the area.
