Very cute lil shop that offers a wide variety of yummy creamy ice cream flavors! The staff will go in the back to scoop from untouched containers and change their gloves.

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.
