  A local Cambrdge -based business , selling Cakes, Ice cream , cookies, and coffee since 1981. Has large variety of ice cream ; but mostly coffee, chocolate and Allied flavors. Orange or pineapple are missing.Mostly delicious. Prices, however, are very high. Small cake is priced around US $ 45 to 50. One scoope of Ice cream @ $ 6. Must consider to reduce prices to remain in future business.The majority of customers are students. Staff is courteous and helpful. Sitting arrangement is satisfactory; however, best to view Harvard University. Has clean rest room as well.

  A chain ice cream shop I often visit. The decor is rustic, and the seats offer views of Harvard Yard and the crowds on Massachusetts Avenue. Peanut Butter Cookies 'n' Cream Ice Cream: A signature item. The peanut flavor is rich and nutty, with a slight saltiness. The ice cream texture is average, with noticeable icy crystals. Salted Caramel Cookies 'n' Cream Ice Cream: Very strong in flavor, both sweet and salty to an almost cloying degree. Matcha Latte: Surprisingly good for an ice cream shop. The matcha aroma is pure, subtle, and rich; it would make you feel blissful in winter.

  It’s $6+ for a small scoop with no toppings now. Wouldn’t recommend for dairy-free individuals. Most of their dairy-free ice creams are coconut based. The sorbets that aren’t are hard to tell. (There was a lemon ginger sorbet on the menu and a watermelon sorbet on the soft serve machine.) My friend’s regular chocolate ice cream had chunks of ice AND tasted of hints of mint chocolate chip. My dairy-free cookies n’ cream was fine.

  The ice cream was delicious and had a perfectly thick, fudgy texture. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!
