Stopped by Union Market recently and casually walked past The Creamery just to see what flavors were available. That quick look turned into a taste of the mango and pineapple coconut sorbet, and that sealed the deal. I knew I would be back after my meal for ice cream. Both flavors delivered the tropical notes I love, refreshing, bright, and perfect for a market stroll. Along with the sorbets, The Creamery was also offering seasonal flavors, plus cookies and other sweet treats, making it an easy stop whether you want a light bite or a full dessert moment. If you are at Union Market and craving something cool and flavorful, this is a spot worth circling back to.

The Creamery at Union Market is a must-visit for ice cream lovers like me! While their ice cream is the main draw, they also have a great selection of milk, butter, yogurt, and cheese available in the coolers. And don’t forget about their sugar cookies, they are great! If you're looking for drinks, they carry a nice variety of juices, kombucha, soda, and water as well. The ice cream flavors are amazing, with options like Cookies and Cream, Grapenuts, and Nutella Biscoff—delicious! Prices are very reasonable for the quality, and the staff is super friendly, always letting you sample flavors before you commit. Definitely recommend stopping by!

I've been here once before. The first time, I got a milkshake, but I forgot the flavors that I chose. This time, I landed on a grapenut (a popular Jamaican ice cream flavor) and pistachio milkshake along with two delicious cookies. The milkshake was exquisite!! Cold, flavorful, and just the right balance between thickness and liquid. I decided on a snickerdoodle for one cookie and a chocolate chip for the other. The cookies were crispy, yet so soft and moist. The chocolate chip wasn't your normal kind. It looks like whole pieces of chocolate were melted inside of the cookie and ran gooey when eating/breaking it. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend folks visit, too!

Run, do not walk, to this ice cream stop!! Probably the best ice cream I've ever had. My bestie and I are huge ice cream snobs, and it's a shame we went here on our last night in the city cuz otherwise, we would've gone back every day! We were seriously tempted to go back on our way to the airport to get some. When (not if) I travel back to DC, this is my first stop!!!
