    With being Lactose, there aren't many places with options for me to choose, so I come here with the selection they have for hand scooped dairy free ice cream and love the waffle cones!

    Absolutely worth the wait! I originally wanted to stop by in the afternoon, but the line was out the door. I came back later and still waited about 20 minutes—but it was totally worth it. Inside, the atmosphere was joyful—kids and adults alike were all smiling with ice cream in hand. I got a cone with a scoop of Deer Traxx (vanilla ice cream with a fudge swirl and peanut butter cups), and it was hands down one of the best ice creams I’ve ever had. Perfectly creamy and rich, not overly sweet, and the chocolate and fudge added depth and texture in every bite. The whole shop has a fun, lively vibe, and the view of the State Theatre marquee through the window just adds to the charm. I’m so glad I decided to stick it out and try it—it definitely lived up to the hype.

    This is my favorite spot for ice cream in Ann Arbor! I have ordered a variety of different items in the menu and they don’t disappoint, even when I want to try something new. The service is very friendly as well! If you want to get ice cream in Ann Arbor, this is the number one spot I would recommend.

    So good. I got the custard soft serve. Everyone else got the ice cream and sorbet. It was delicious and the kids loved drawing on the chalk wall.
