Visitors to the area should definitely visit here to find a gift to remind them of their trip. Located inside the store is Bubba's Ice Cream. They offer many flavors and one non-dairy option which is a sorbet. Their milkshakes also are in demand. When we visited, they had three staff scooping, and the line moved quickly. This is a popular spot, as they have a BOGO coupon in the visitors' magazine. The General Store had Fife and Drum performers playing from 7-9 pm entertaining guests in the comfortable porch. This is a fun place to visit, shop, and enjoy some ice cream.

They looked a little annoyed that we were looking at the flavors (it's our first time here). I felt a bit rushed. Small Ice cream, Red Velvet: 6/10 This was pretty good. It was creamy but there seemed to be a slightly gritty undertone in all of the ice creams. The flavor was light and I wish it was stronger Medium ice cream, cookie dough and brownie 8/10 The texture was the same as the other but the flavor was a bit stronger. It was an average ice cream store and staff were impatient.

It is not something I would go out of my way to get ice cream there. It is a tiny store, with only a few tables and chairs. It is a perfect pop in and pop out walk around with your ice cream type of place. No complaints on the ice cream itself. It was good.

The flavor had that distinctive tartness and the recognizable texture of graham cracker crust which was absolutely delicious. There the employees were very helpful, by allowing me try several flavors before making my decision. There was plenty of seating inside and outside that is perfect for families and large crowds.

These come heads will be back! And we didn't see a fly in sight that we had to shoo away!! Bonus!!

The ordering system is simple and they give you a number. The air wasn't too long and the service was good. I ordered the Oreo Bubble Sundae and my sister ordered the brownie sundae. I'd never had a bubble waffle sundae before, but man was this thing good! It was quite decadent, with a chocolate bubble waffle, filled with cookies n' cream ice cream, crushed Oreos, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. This was heavenly and was really big, definitely splittable. The brownie sundae was served in a waffle cone and included a scoop of vanilla and chocolate ice cream, topped with brownie chunks, walnuts, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. My sister really, really liked this and was very happy with it. We both loved our ice cream and agreed it was perfect, especially considering how hot it was. Would recommend coming here and grabbing some elevated ice cream :)

So pleasantly surprised with this place!…read more Located in "France" at Busch Gardens. Bright inside with no indoor seating. Just a couple counters to stand at, but all seating is located outdoors. It's cute! Reminds me of Europe of course. When you enter, you'll see a big board with pictures, item names, descriptions, and prices. They offer floats, milkshakes, fraps, and ice cream. You pay, and then your order is created and you're called to the counter when it's ready. Yes, it may be just a tad pricey (most of the big sundaes are roughly $8.75 each,) but what amusement park has cheap food?! This stuff is SO worth it! We paid about $19 and change for a Banana Split and a Strawberry Shortcake sundae. Ice cream was so creamy (and dreamy,) it tasted like it was fresh out of a creamery. The flavors and consistency so perfect. Very generous with whipped cream and all toppings as well. My mom couldn't get over her banana split having 2 full bananas versus the usual, one split in half. We totally enjoyed this and would come here again. This was actually my most favorite thing from our full day at Busch Gardens recently!

From the moment we walked in, she greeted us with a warm smile and outstanding customer service. Although she was the only employee working, she handled everything with professionalism, efficiency, and grace. There were already three families enjoying their ice cream when we arrived, and while we were there, she served our family along with three additional families--all while scooping ice cream, operating the cash register, and keeping things running smoothly. I asked if she was always scheduled to work alone, and she mentioned that another employee was supposed to arrive at 3:00 p.m. By the time we left around 4:20 p.m., she was still managing the entire shop by herself without ever losing her positive attitude or composure. Courtney deserves recognition for her incredible work ethic, professionalism, and dedication. In a time when great customer service can be hard to find, she set an outstanding example. Thank you, Courtney, for making our visit such a wonderful experience. The Big Scoop is fortunate to have someone like you representing their business!

Yelp was spot on! The employees were SOOOO friendly and inviting. They were all smiles, let my daughter ask all the questions, and just pleasant to work with. They made the experience (and the ice cream) one that made us immediately want to come back. With all the competition in the area for ice cream, this place is definitely a top contender! If you're in the area, make sure you come and visit!

Best known for their icy lemonades and ice cream. But they do have a menu of other snack items too! My favorite are the ginger cakes. I think they are made in-house on at CW, possibly Raleigh Tavern Bakery. They also sell bottle water and fountain drinks. Souvenir mugs can be purchased for refill during a season. As I typically will say in any CW property it's the staff and interpreters that make difference. The staff time after time are so friendly, especially to the children who are excited to look over the sweet treats. Of course my family will be back.
