Freshie's has been a favorite of mine since they first opened. Their ice cream is truly delicious! Their esthetic is a 50s soda/ice cream shop that is so cute and adorable! The service there is typically welcoming and positive. They are pretty expensive for ice cream, but they have a great menu of fabulous treats that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. We took my sister-in-law, my nephew, and my niece while they were visiting from Denver last week. They LOVE Freshie's!!

The customer service representative was diligent but I wouldn’t say she was particularly friendly. I liked the cute atmosphere. The picture I posted was a $9 cup. The ice cream was good, but competitors definitely have better prices in regard to value. There was nothing special about the ice cream to warrant the higher price.

Super adorable dessert shop! I had dinner close by and was drawn in by the beautiful aesthetic. The brownie sundae was epic with a delicious warm brownie at the bottom. The woman helping me was new and helpful. I definitely recommend this family friendly environment.

This place is so whimsical! The atmosphere is fun, and the ice cream is delicious. We enjoyed the old soda bar vibe while catching up with friends. They make their waffle cones fresh for you, and they're really good. We got a sundae, waffle cup and a strawberry shake. There is a bit longer of a wait since they craft each treat individually, but you can tell the employees make everything fresh for you so it is worth the wait. This place is a novelty and it's a fun little stop.
