    SMALL ice cream cones!
    Mon I.

    We were happy to find this gem after avoiding the ice cream shop down the road with a line not worth waiting in. The team was attentive, kind and efficient. The long list of flavors (our only suggestion would be to include some kind of a description) made choosing fun. The ice cream was creamy and full of flavor. The ambiance was nice, with music playing and plenty of seating with lights big and small. It was a wonderful, calm and tasty way to end the evening!

    All aboard the Lil' Caboose for delicious ice cream at reasonable prices and a playground to entertain the little ones. The strawberry ice cream was creamy and full of chunks of strawberry. As good as any you'll find on the Cape. The sugar cone was a legit cone and not the tiny styrofoam ones. The kiddie size was actually a small size at most places and under $5. Lots of flavors to choose from including vegan options. The peanut butter and chocolate vegan flavor was mentioned as delicious. What sets Lil Caboose from other ice cream spots is the playground and train theme (which includes an actual train car and train play set). The playground is great for toddlers and younger kids. The train play set is fun to climb and drive and there is a slide with climbing wall and swings. Best of all, the playground is in sand so it's almost like being on the beach. Lots of benches for outdoor seating including a large tent for shade. Plenty of parking and a porta potty for a bathroom. Looks like they may have gotten new owners a few years ago and really cleaned things up.

    This place was recommended my the visitors center. I am lactose intolerant and NEED Vega/dairy free options. This place has so many REGULAR flavors and a few good choices. I opted for the berry supreme. It was so flavorful and creamy. This place did not disappoint

    THE PERFECT SWEET TREAT! Line moves so quick and there are sooo many flavors you can choose from! I would come back here every time I visit Cape Cod! The scoops of ice cream are MASSIVE, one scoop would've been enough but of course i wanted to try as many flavors as I could! My favorite flavors are the orange pineapple and strawberry cheesecake.

    Kiddie sizes cups! Small cone!

    Cannot say enough good things - huge portions, delicious ice cream and 10/10 service. The owner handed out wooden train whistles and American flags to my kids - and a pup cup for the dog was on the house!! Big tent for shade with tons of tables. There's a fenced in playground, too. Can't wait to go back!

    Theee best strawberry cheesecake ice cream ever!

    I go there religiously every Sunday evening for strawberry cheesecake ice cream.. it's freaking delicious!

    Hot fudge sundae coconut chocolate yogurt ice cream

    There is no shortage of ice cream options on Cape Cod. Eating ice cream after a seafood dinner…read moreafter a day on the beach seems like an obligatory day when on the Cape. Despite the plentiful options for ice cream, the lines in the evenings are often very long. But, we had no wait grabbing our post-bike ride mid-afternoon snack, and the super friendly workers seemed eager to satisfy us. CCC has lots of appealing flavors, and I opted for the Monomoy Mud Pie and Allen Harbor Almond Joy. It was an unusual pairing, and I preferred the Mud Pie. Really great coffee ice cream, with fudge and graham crackers mixed in. The Almond Joy was very good too, but for me, the almond pieces detracted from the great creaminess of the ice cream even though the flavor and chocolate covered almonds were awesome. If I were spending more time on the Cape, I'd gladly taste test my way through their entire menu!

    We discovered the secret - though I hesitate to write it…read more.. Get your ice cream mid-day instead of after dinner and you *may* avoid the hour plus lines many of the ice cream places on the Cape have every night. We went to Cape Cod Creamery after earning the treat by riding many miles on the CC Rail Trail that morning. We had one party in front of us and waited only a moment or two. The staff were young and friendly. I asked our scooper what her favorite flavor is and she said, "black raspberry and usually everyone who tries it orders it. Do you want a sample?" I, in fact, did! I love a place that lets you try before you buy. While I often gravitate towards chocolate flavors, I decided to try it along with a scoop of blueberry. I got my chocolate fix by ordering my cup with chocolate sprinkles. While the flavors were kind of similar in color and taste, I enjoyed the black raspberry more. Mine was a healthy two scoops for about $7.50. It felt expensive but ice cream out, and on Cape Cod, always is. We enjoyed our ice cream outdoors because it was a beautiful day! There is plenty of indoor dining space for nighttime or weather days that are not as optimal. A shop with a clean bathroom is always an added bonus in my book.
