Looking for the perfect marshmallow for the hot chocolate board I was preparing, HVMC definitely came in clutch. They have a variety of graham crackers and drink mixes and, of course, marshmallows. They do have a selection of drinks to choose from in store as well. My friend opted for a hot chocolate and truthfully, she wasn't impressed. But she did help me narrow down my marshmallow choices and I ended up walking away with a salted caramel variety. Even if caramel isn't my favorite sweet, these marshmallows were excellent. Plush and tender, with a not to overwhelming caramel taste to them. My entire party devoured them over their cups of hot cocoa. Honestly, well worth the price imo. And considering the variety, I look forward to trying their other creations!

They also have seating and make different types of S'mores and beverages for in store eating. There were at least two inside tables that I remember. I had an iced chocolate beverage and two S'mores from a couple of S'mores flights that my family shared. The S'mores were well constructed and looked good. I had one with a French Toast vibe and one with chocolate graham crackers and strawberry and vanilla marshmallows. Both were good. The store was very nice. Service was OK. Nothing bad, but the one person out front lacked the enthusiasm and engagement that would take your experience in a specialty store like this to the next level. 4.25 Stars

All fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients. Fresh cones and hot waffles? Sign me UP! Came here on a Saturday afternoon for a Beacon stroll and I'm so happy we found this gem and got to try them! The dark chocolate ice cream has my heart! Vegan and gluten free options available as well. Their concept is shcoops for all: anyone and everyone should be able to have ice cream! So they've made nut free, celiac safe, gf, v and even pup cups! With their pull up window, it's so easy to order, especially if you have a dog! Love this place, the people that work here, the story and the shcoops! Can't wait to be back with my pup.

I sampled a couple of flavors Mango and Strawberry and my pick was Strawberry followed by Mango , as it was more sweeter compared to the Mango which was a bit more tangy . We also tried a few other flavors like chocolate with sprinkles and Honey comb . Honey comb turned out being the most popular among our group. Their single scoops are small but you can get a large triple scoop too. They have an ATM inside the Food Hall for those who need it. Cute cozy dessert joint !

(I screamed for ice cream, if you will ;) I ordered the mango sorbet on a sugar cone, however the girl scooping my ice cream recommended that I switch to a waffle cone as it would hold the sorbet better. She was definitely right about that! The sorbet was refreshing and exactly what I needed to hear the Sunday afternoon heat. They have literally one table with 2 chairs inside, and thankfully it was empty when we arrived as I had no plans of eating my ice cream outside. If you arrive during a busy time, you can enjoy your ice cream on the bench outside the front door or up in their patio area located to the left of the building. However the "patio" area is NOT shaded, so be prepared for your ice cream to melt quickly if you're outside on a hot day. Thanks for helping me beat the heat, y'all!

It's counter service and there was already a bit of a line when we arrived around 7:15am (why were so many people already up and about?! lol). We loved that they had a great variety of options, including many vegetarian options. I went with the egg & cheese sandwich and accidentally ordered it without the greens & sauce (whoops!). However, it was still delicious and satisfying. My husband got the avocado toast which was SUPER filling due to the hummus that was on it. He was only able to finish half of it. We also got a side order of fruit which, to my delight, was a bowl of berries! The fruit is seasonal so the combination might be different depending on what time of year you are visiting. Also, both of our coffees met our standards, which are a bit high these days. So kudos to them on that! The ambiance was absolutely incredible!!! Very well lit with a bright, welcoming atmosphere. We sat near the back of the restaurant (away from all windows), however we still felt like we were being flooded with sunlight. It was wonderful! Definitely recommend coming here to grab breakfast while visiting Beacon!

There are also plenty of tables to sit at if you're dining in. I ordered the Forager Hash, which had a poached egg, asparagus, spinach, mushrooms, peppers, fingerling potatoes, and topprd with maple harissa and paprika aioli. I also got their pumpkin spice latte. My boyfriend got one of their specials, which was Shakshouka, a poached egg dish in a pepper sauce that was served with bread for dipping. Both dishes were so flavorful! We really enjoyed them. You could also tell they made their own pumpkin syrup for the latte. It tasted so good and not overly sweet at all. Highly recommend!
