    Despite the cute outside and decor this place was terrible. We went specifically for crepes. Two people were working and apparently one didn't have a clue about what they were doing. They almost refused to make the crepes but the other guy decided he could do it. We were refused to be sold milk as a beverage even though there wasn't anything normal to drink in their store. We waited a very long time for the crepes and they were terrible. Dry and Almost tasteless. Definitely don't recommend and will never go back. It's a waste of money and time.

    If you want your sweet tooth satisfied, look no further and come here! I love the girly decor and the ice cream milkshake did not disappoint. I wanted mine to be a little bit customized for photos and he gave it a bit more pizazz. Such a cute spot to end the night with. I would come back again!

    The prices are great and the desserts are delicious! The staff is so kind and helpful. They have many cool desserts. I just got a scoop of banana split ice cream and added fresh pineapple. They really loaded it up, felt well worth it. I love the ice cream shaped trash cans and the pink. It's a pretty place

    This was a good ice cream experience. While on Atlantic Avenue I was searching for a good ice cream parlor and Dream the La Cream popped up in my search. Central Atlantic Avenue on Virginia Beach has plenty ice cream options, many of which are just good enough for beach goers and kids lacking discriminating taste, however, this ice cream parlor is a good option for trendy, non-chain ice cream. The interior has fun decor and the vast ice cream selection and menu is just as fun. Although the workers didn't seem as friendly as I would have liked, the customer service was not bad. There is seating on the inside, albeit booth seating, which virtually limits seating to three intimate parties. I would like to see more individual seats perhaps across the side wall. Overall a good ice cream experience and I'll visit again. Give them a try.

    Open an hour later than the sweet spot is great! The milkshakes were great and my daughters were shook. The decor is cute and colorful and the employees handled the shakes with care.

    This place was a stop for a dessert other than ice cream and their crepe was absolutely delicious and wonderful! Thanks for the special crepe!! Yummmmm

    Brownie and homemade ice cream

    I love to treat my little guy to a good ice cream spot. This place is Ice cream heaven. I love the creativity and thought put into the menu. There's a variety of milkshakes, drinks, floats and Ice cream. The service was great and 100% kid approved. My son actually said this is the best ice cream he ever had. I purchased the warm brownie with vanilla ice cream and sampled the cotton candy flavored ice cream. There's so many flavors with the option of trying things out before you make a purchase. I will definitely return to this location whenever I visit Virginia Beach.

    Salted caramel milkshake
    Rebecca B.

    Highly disappointed in this place. We had high hopes based on the pictures but did not get the experience we had hoped for. I got the salted caramel milkshake, which did not include all the toppings as advertised. They put in so much milk into the milkshake and not enough ice cream that all I tasted was milk and no ice cream flavor. This also made the texture too thin. There was a biscoff cookie and mini crunch bar on top. The edge had chocolate frosting around it with pretzels stuck onto it. I didn't taste any caramel anywhere in the mix. My husband got the brownie frappuccino milkshake, which again, only tasted like milk because there was way too much milk and not enough ice cream, so there was no coffee flavor. His toppings were better, there was a whole brownie on top and brownie stuck around the edges with frosting. However, it was again missing toppings that they advertised on the sign. Finished it in a few minutes and still felt hungry afterwards. The man putting together our milkshakes didn't add to the experience at all either. He turned his back to us and didn't let us watch him make it and didn't chat with us at all, other than to tell us they were out of the Reese's milkshake. This poor experience for $15 EACH for a total $34.50 bill. Do not recommend, do not waste your time or money.

    A place to get ice cream. Got butter pecan flavor and sundae flavor. Both were creamy but butter pecan was more solid. Pricey though, was almost 10 bucks for two scoops on a chocolate waffle cone (which was kinda stale). The attendant was nice though. It'll scratch your itch for some cream but that's it.

    This cute ice cream place pulled us in with their advertisement of their offerings ( baked goods with ice cream). Once in there, we were jammin to upbeat dance music. The place was clean and they offered ice cream & other baked items to eat with the ice cream. I got cookies & cream ice cream but I did try the Birthday cake ice cream which was just as good. My friend had the Strawberry which was equally good. Prices were moderate. Not too expensive but not too cheap either, depending on what you order. Great location from the beach. Would go back.

    I did a quick Google search for a ice cream place that we could go to after dinner and this place…read morepopped up the reviews are pretty good so we decided to go here to get some ice cream for the girls and my husband wanted a chocolate milkshake. We arrived within 10 minutes from leaving the restaurant and the parking lot was pretty much empty even though we visited during Friday in January I didn't expect it to be too busy but not a single car in a parking lot was definitely unexpected, we should have left... Nevertheless, we walked up to the service window the service was pretty quick and straight to the point the ambience not much going on ... This is mainly an outdoor Eatery as a result due to the cold temperatures around 30° we were not going to sit outside to enjoy the ambience but it seems like it's a cute atmosphere when the weather is permitting. Overall our visit was just blah. I had the mint chip ice cream my daughter had vanilla ice cream with sprinkles and my husband the chocolate milkshake and we all were disappointed I guess we've tried other ice cream parlors and based on this location and reviews our expectations were a bit higher and we were all disappointed. Nevertheless I will more than likely stick to what we know but you can definitely try at your own risk again looking at some of the reviews some people do enjoy coming here but have fun and enjoy life

The mint chip was bright and brightly flavored with plenty of thin chocolate chips. The outdoor seating had some shade and a nice breeze. And you get a little mural on the side of Lolly's building, a view of a racecar wall-mural on the building next door, and a bright cartoony-mural on the next one! A sweet start to your self-guided mural tour of this artsy neighborhood!

I tried Shellebration which was a seasonal flavor of cake batter with cake pieces and sprinkles and just ask which has peanut butter and Oreo.

Love how they have a lot or seasonal flavors to try in addition to the staples. Not pictured but they have pints for sale as well as merch. They even have a drive through!

I absolute love their mint chip and amaretto flavors too. We've even ordered a 6-flight of ice cream this past Valentine's Day and it was the absolute best V-Day outing. Everything is made fresh and in house. You really can't beat a visit to Gelati Celesti. The service is always friendly and they always recommend trying any flavors to see what you're in the mood for! We always end up eating our ice cream at one of the many tables inside or outside. It's a great spot with multiple locations! It's the perfect place for dessert or a sweet treat any time of day! I love Gelati Celesti.

    Chile, if this isn't THEE SLOWEST location ever then idk what. We came here after a wine night and…read morethere were only 2 people in front of us, yet it took about 10 mins to serve them. Our party had about 7 ppl, I want to say it took NO LESS than 20 minutes to serve some darn cookies. It took forever, the girl was the absolute slowest, at a snail's pace is still too fast for her. Anyways, I ordered the cinnamon dolce cookie and it had a little filling in the middle. That cookie was amazing! I would go TO A DIFFERENT location but order it again. Because the line was so long, we had a chance to join the rewards and got a free basic cookie. Because of course the cookie I wanted wasn't ready and the wait was 15 mins, I opted for the snickerdoodle which was just OK. The cinnamon dulce is on the money. But, this location was so slow that literally half of the line got frustrated and left. I want to say it was at least 3-4 left the line while we were there. 3 stars because the cookies were good, the location was clean and the young lady was nice/professional.
