    Cloud icecream on a cone.
    Kryss P.

    The icecream was nice, we enjoyed the black cherry, super cow on a cone with cotton candy, and a hot fudge sundae. The shop is sparse for sitting. The male staff was overwhelmed. One person working who has to man a dryer and doesn't set a timer to multitask, taking 10 + minutes per order, that's not realistic to serve your customers.

    Funnel cake with strawberry and soft serve.
    Trinity L.

    So yummy! Large portions! The funnel cakes were so good! The service was a little slow but there were only two people and they were working as quickly as possible. Not the friendliest but probably because they were moving quick and working fast. Flavor and presentation were worth it! Everyone came excited and left happy and pleased so you can't beat that! It's small, quiet as in no music or entertainment other than the treats. It's got the creamery echo sound to the room but otherwise a good place to enjoy a nice treat together. Definitely recommend stopping by anytime you're around!

    The ice cream is pretty good, it's made 2 hours away by Mayfield. One of our ice creams had a hair in it :/ Staff is friendly. Not much seating, only 4 chairs inside, picnic table outside, & bench outside.

    Had cookies n cream on a waffle cone, it was great. Friendly staff, fast service. My friend got a cup of ice cream with caramel and her child got the same as me.

    Choc. Chip Cookie Dough Double Scoop on waffle cone
    Gabe C.

    We both got double scoop chocolate chip cookie dough on their waffle cone and it was delicous. Inside is super nice and the staff was incredibly friendly to us! This was the best ice cream we've had so far on vacation!

    The restaurant and rest room are very clean. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Now for the best part as Homer Simpson would say "ICE CREAM" and all types of magical sweet goodness! The ice cream we ordered was hand dipped and was very creamy with no ice in it. My granddaughter got the cotton candy burrito and let me tell you it is huge. I believe it had 3 or 4 huge scoops of ice cream in cased in cotton candy. I have never seen anything like it in my life. The shaved ice drinks are awesome as well. We will definitely be stopping back in at this location.

    Ice cream burrito!

    Great local shop, my son got the ice cream burrito, 3 scoops of ice cream wrapped in cotton candy! He had it several years ago when we were here and was happy we found the place again.

    We stopped in, but they were out of cookies and cream ice cream. We will have to try again on our next visit.

    Selection seems to lacking from previous visits. Lines moved pretty quickly. Employees don't seem to enjoy their job.

    Great ice cream, but it smells like really old grease in the building. I'm sure the funnel cakes are Bussin.

    The donuts at the Gatlinburg location are some of the best I've ever had. Does this location have donuts? The sign, photos and menus I've seen online show it doesn't. Thank you!

    No. The Pigeon Forge location does not have donuts. Sorry!

When she did take the order she didnt put in we went back to last on the cue. And even though she missed our order, she forgot, we were served after ten other people came in, doent make sense except to her apparently It's not that she messed up,its that she didn't make it right. when people listen to what your instructions are im sure its not hard to get it right . 1/5 stars However Shantel the other server paired with her also helped with the orders everything she crafted for us turned out exactly as requested. Someone needs to get a clue, and its not Shantel. My suggestion have the girl with glasses repeat the order to you.. you'll see.. it will be wrong unless she changes something. Overall 3/5 great product,mediocrity in customer service from Miss Glasses..

    This place is a must-try when in the area! We were in town for the Bronco Super Celebration event…read moreand stayed next door at the Marriott hotel for 4 days. The first night we ate at the tavern next door, and wanted a sweet treat for the walk back to the hotel, so we popped in for a couple waffle cones. First, the shop is very cute and clean, and all the staff are so kind and helpful. I tried several samples before making my decision (there's SO many amazing flavors to choose from!) and decided on the toasted coconut chunk for me, and brownie batter for my boyfriend, both in a waffle cone. The waffle cones are made fresh after you order, and then filled with their amazing (all homemade!) ice cream. We both agreed it was the best ice cream we've probably ever had (cone included!) Serving size was perfect and prices super reasonable. We proceeded to stop by every single day of our trip - that's how good! During our visits, we also had the Twix, Reese's, cookie dough, and samples of Tennessee turtle, caramel bear tracks, and coffee brownie. All were amazing and so hard to decide! On our last visit, the owner came out to chat with us & meet our pup (we had taken it to go each time and sat outside to eat since we had our dog with us). She was so sweet and clearly passionate about creating not only an amazing product, but a great experience overall. We are already excited for our next visit to the area so we can visit for ice cream every day again!! Don't miss this amazing family owned local spot!

We had a few of the sorbets, dulce de leche, Oreo ice cream in waffle cones and cherry ice cream in a chocolate waffle cone. Very friendly service. Off the main parkway and so worth it!

There's not much sitting room when the line is long but other than that, it depends on the time of day you arrive. We came on a Thursday at 3:30PM and it was packed.

The workers were also very intentional, focused and determined to make the best of the best for you! What we ordered: Oreo Cheesecake Regular Oreo RedVelvet with Vegan Vanilla base Strawberry All of it was AMAZING! The best ice-cream in town for sure!

Well beside by an ice cream souvenir dish $12 and get a mini sundae. It was well lighted, and okay on candy choices, it was like $19.98 a pound of candy (self serve) , the staff was not friendly.

    This place isn't what it used to be. No homemade ice cream. No chocolate covered strawberries…read more Jelly Bellies (primary reason we went) were $19.99 per pound! I can get them on the Jelly Belly website for less than half that! The one thing good I have to say is that their pralines are the kind I like most (really buttery tasting and dry/crumbly rather than sticky/chewy). But it was nearly $30 for 6 pralines and one small candy package for my kids. Communication was also difficult as the people there struggled with English and they didn't seem very friendly. We didn't buy any Jelly Bellies and left disappointed. I'm so sad because this used to be our favorite candy place in Pigeon Forge. Also, the prepackaged Jelly Bellies were $6.99 and we found them at the candy shop inside Dollywood for $3.99. Never imagined a shop inside a theme park would be so much cheaper than a standalone shop. It's like they don't want to sell anything.
