The ice cream is amazing and they have great flavors you don't really see anywhere else. It's kind of off the beaten path (not really) but it's worth going to. I recently got a German chocolate concrete and wow.....it was epic. As fan as the atmosphere, it's suuuuuuuper relaxed. Just yesterday, I saw two older gentlemen sitting out side at a table enjoying their ice cream. Seemed pretty pleasant but unfortunately for me, I was in a rush. Definitely recommend!

My husband got the breakfast burrito which he demolished and I got the Philly omelette which was packed full of meat and cheese. We split the cinnamon roll waffle which has a cream cheese icing to die for. It's the best waffle we've ever had. I watched many fantastic looking goodies getting delivered to other tables. We will definitely return to try some of the other mouth watering options. Staff was attentive and super sweet. Glasses stayed full and we left stuff. The abbey is a beautiful building. Historical photos line the walls. It is definitely a worthy day trip. Don't forget to grab some baked goods to go. They have bread a pastries. My husband and I had a phenomenal meal and we will be back to sample more.

Honestly not much to say other than the concretes we all received were blended perfectly and delicious. I also like the checkered floor and the old diner style tables and chairs.

Its an ice-cream shop that also serves all your favorite coffee drinks, What's not to love?
