One of the best ice creams I’ve ever had. The espresso hazelnut flavor is my absolute favorite. I’m lactose intolerant, so I really appreciated that they offer lactase pills to take before enjoying your ice cream. 🍦✨

Very mixed coming out of this. The ice cream was by far the best I’ve ever had but goodness are the prices rough. I understand the pricing being a small local place with small batch ice creams but $11 for a milkshake just for it to be that small was a difficult pill to swallow, quality aside. I tried the breakup cookie milkshake and had it not Been for the price I would have turned around and got another. My partner had the June Coffee milkshake with caramel, it was hands down the best coffee flavor ice cream I’ve had in my whole life. The inside environment was incredible sterile and felt like a hospital, this is all personal preference going forward but I cared in no way for the decoration, or lack thereof. I just didn’t feel like the sterile all white minimalist design suited an ice cream spot, especially one of this caliber. All in all I would and will go back I just hope in the course of finding their legs they can come down on the prices just a bit and maybe liven up the decor. I have high hopes and nothing but love for this place and their vision and I hope I can increase my rating in the future!!

The raspberry rose and staff deserve a separate five star. Some of the best ice cream ever! We also loved the vanilla, chocolate, and hazelnut espresso. We went back for seconds. We wanted to sit outside but the birds were getting wild and we don’t want to get pooped on 😂

I good could on & on about how good Big Spoon is! Their ice cream is my favorite and the staff are always so friendly and welcoming! Magic city is my favorite and I wish it was a year around staple. I’m sad they didn’t have the georgia nell pecan pie last fall because that is my absolute favorite from the fall season menu…bring it back pretty please :)!
