I’m always a little nervous with ice cream spots cause of the cross contamination but they were so helpful! Asked them when I walked in what their cross contamination protocol was and they said if it’s an allergy they can use a new scoop and even will scoop from a new/fresh container. Since I’m celiac and fairly sensitive to cross contamination I asked for them to use a new scoop and fresh container and they did not seem annoyed or grumpy to do so. Didn’t get sick!

GF options are clearly labeled , as are other major allergens. A big sign says “Let us know if you have an allergy”. When I told the Scooper, he asked if it was a contact allergen / cross contamination, and when I said yes, he got 2 brand new tubs of the flavors I chose and a completely clean scooper to use on them. Very impressed with that.

Ask for an “Allergy Scoop” and they will get fresh ice cream from the back and use separate supplies. The flavors in the case are labeled which are gluten free. Make sure to say no waffle wedge. Delicious!

Almost all the flavors are gluten free. I asked if she could scoop from new tubs in the back with a new scooper and she had no problem doing that for me. I got a milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and coffee flavor and the coffee was my favorite.

every flavor I tried was SUPER sweet, a little too much for my taste, but the creaminess was awesome and there were a TON of GF options. Staff is knowledgeable and got an allergy scoop from the back containers!

Not a lot of options for gluten free people. Nothing is labeled on their menu and all the labels by the ice cream itself were wrong. Of the flavors I could eat, it was pretty average. Creamier than most ice creams but nothing super exceptional. I got peanut butter and chocolate.
