    This ice cream may be the best I have had in my entire life. Every one of it's flavors are delicious(I know this because my family tried many many samples) but finally we decided. I ordered a cappuccino crunch with a waffle cone (notice how I didn't ask for a 2 or 3 scoop, just a regular) and I got a larger than my face ice cream that I astonishingly ate from top to bottom. My family and I all agreed that we should come back again, and I highly encourage you to come too.

    Went here while on vacation in the area and I was not disappointed. Friendly staff and quick service. Lots of delicious flavors to choose and including some fun ones. I had the 'baby' cone ($3.78) and that thing was massive so I can only imagine what larger sizes looked like, but this was perfect for me. I had the Moose Tracks and Brownie Batter and they were both amazing! If you're near chautauqua lake, I definitely recommend checking this place out.

    Amazing ice cream. Charming environment. Gigantic portions - highly recommend sharing. Genuinely one of the best ice cream spots I've ever been to!

    We stopped here on a beautiful summer day and got a huge cone full of ice cream. I absolutely loved the ice cream flavors they had! My partner did too. We walked over to the really pretty mural that's right nearby. It's nice because you can see Chautauqua Lake while you're eating your ice cream. They should ensure that they enforce the mask wearing in line. I would definitely return here!

    I love to come here every time I'm in Chautauqua for the summer. It's in a wonderful location just by the lake, so you can cross the street for a splendid view. The scoops are tremendous in size, so I like to get a double scoop and share with a friend. Cappuccino crunch is the best, and butter pecan is a close second

    Medium ice cream HAUGE

    A gem of an ice cream shop! Delicious ice cream and fast service. Be aware that the sizes are huge. Pictures below are the small and medium. The medium was so much ice cream

    Both are BABY size!

    W-O-W. This ice cream. The words escape me as feelings and images of the experience wash over…read more It's great. First rate. I've eaten a lot of fancy ice cream so I will designate myself an authority. The space is open, airy, laid back and a little punk rock. Family friendly with the Buzz Cocks playing in the backround. There's an 80's feel about it all in just the right way. The proprietor makes the ice cream himself with fresh cream every Tuesday. It's sooooooooooooooooooo goooooooooooood!!!!! NOT OVERLY SWEET. For example I find Perry's cloyingly sweet. Too much for me. Sprinkle Cone hits it just right. I went with my brother and his two teenage kids. Everyone was unexpectedly blown away. Here's the breakdown. Me: Vanilla and Berry Cobbler in a Sprinkle Cone Ethan: Mint Oreo Fudge and Reses Chunk in a cone Bro: Toasted Coconut and Strawberry in a cone Flynn: Don't remember 'cause he inhaled it! There was evidence of a cone tho Side Note: There is sidewalk chalk aplenty for drawing :@) Ps I head there's a badass indoor skateboard park in the same building!! Price: Increadibly reasonable for what you get.

    The ice cream is great but the portions are SMALL. For what amounted to 5 small scoops of ice cream…read moreand 3 waffle cones, it was $25! Then they ran out of the waffle cones and offered us 2 sugar cones and $1. They also don't have napkins for people to get. I get inflation is high but come on.
