    I can't stop coming back here for the chocolate ice cream. It's so delicious. Got to speak with the owner Mike on this most recent visit. He is incredibly kind and passionate about the shop. Really enjoyed talking with him and hearing him take pride in his shop. Easily becoming my new favorite ice cream spot in the area.

    I was excited to come in for some ice cream with family after seeing this shop for a while on Yelp and Facebook, but was very underwhelmed. I noticed that some of the ice cream seemed like it had been in the tubs for a while and not very fresh. I picked the one that looked the best which was the black cherry. I really enjoyed my ice cream's flavor, but it had little ice chips in it which I did not enjoy and could not tell from its appearance. I also found that all of the tables inside were sticky, which I thought was not great considering we were only one of two families in the store.We also were there pretty early in the afternoon, so it made me wonder if they had not been cleaned from the night before? We did clean off a table and sit to enjoy our ice cream though. I also found it weird how the prices for their chocolates were not displayed anywhere in the store. We had to flag down the one poor worker who was in the back to ask about chocolate prices. Overall, not the best experience and probably will not come back anytime in the future.

    Our go to ice cream place in Fairport. Homemade unique flavors & your standard go to's also. Staff is so welcoming & remembers us when we go in. Flavors made in house are clearly marked. They also have chocolates, drinks, shakes, & many other treats we have yet to try. Would love to see free samples of flavors before getting a whole dish or cone of it. Sizes & prices are reasonable in today's economy.

    ***4.5 Stars*** Nice ice cream spot in the heart of Fairport. At least 20 flavors to choose from. They also have other treats like chocolates, rice crispy treats and other sweets. My daughter loved the strawberry sorbet and blueberry ice cream. It's nice that they have non-dairy options. It's located right alongside the Fairport Canal with plenty of seating inside and also outside by the water. It's a good atmosphere to watch the boats on a warm sunny day. Lots of parking in an adjacent covered parking garage (Fairport library).

    Moonlight creamery = best ice cream? I think I may have found my new favorite ice cream flavor: Moonlight Creamery's butterbeer. I'm not the biggest Harry Potter fan, but I love butterscotch, and the flavor was soooo good. They have a wide selection of unique flavors, as well chocolates! They all sound so good, and I'm excited to try more in the future. However, even though I rate the ice cream so highly, I was so disappointed by the waffle cone that I'm knocking a star off. I love waffle cones, and a good waffle cone can really elevate an ice cream place. This waffle cone was very underwhelming and I actually avoided eating most of the cone. I will definitely be back to try their chocolates, more ice cream, and their drinking chocolates! LOVE their ice cream, but I'll opt for a dish rather than a cone.

    Fantastic shop! I stopped in for a cone and then took a walk along the canal and it was the perfect choice. The staff was friendly and the ice cream delicious. I got the Girl Scout Mint flavor! Amazing.

    The ice cream is delicious and mostly homemade. We got the "itty bitty" size and it was definitely bigger than expected..not kiddy size. It was $5 for this smallest size, but since the ice cream is homemade, I think it's worth it. The server was very friendly and pleasant despite there being a long line. Inside is your typical ice cream shop, just a tad more upscale. They also serve different caffeinated drinks and wine! We will definitely be visiting again! The

    Have been twice nice and it's a fun and funky 90s cafe vibe. Super fun and different flavors, absolutely delicious and it's hard to choose! Both times I've been there's only one person working, so it's a little slow but so worth it!

    It was 25 degrees the day we went and I felt it was balmy enough to enjoy some ice cream. First of all, hard to beat this location, even with the bridge closed right now. Stunning view of the canal, gorgeous grassy area with plenty of space to enjoy your treat day or night. Very magical and transportative, even on a 25 degree evening. They have a lot of flavors and cute novelties in the case, which are super tempting. I went with cookie dough ice cream (my go to!) in a dish. My date went with espresso (or coffee maybe?) with waffle cone bits and chocolate sprinks. Mine was absolutely fab. I loved the creaminess, ratio of dough to ice cream to chips, and the fact that they use CHIPS instead of CHUNKS. Big distinction. His ice cream was just not great? I know that's not super helpful. It just tasted a bit bitter and lacked the warmth you sometimes get in a coffee ice cream. To me, neither held a candle to some of the other homemade ice cream spots in town. I'll be back for the pretty scenery and anytime I am looking for a good dessert option in Fairport!

    Def had a lot of good flavors. You can not taste test any here. The location is nice too. A little pricey.

    Best ice cream in Fairport. It's right next to a small park with a nice outside sitting area overlooking the Erie Canal.

    I really appreciate that Royal Café offers a variety of vegan (non-dairy) gelato flavors. That's…read moreuncommon at ice cream shops, and they deserve a lot of credit for it. The staff are friendly and helpful, too. Honestly, though, the best feature of this place is its location. It sits right near the Erie Canal, so you can get a cup of gelato, walk a few hundred yards down the canal path, and then settle onto a bench, look out over the water, and enjoy your gelato. That setting does more for the experience than anything on the menu. I do have a few concerns, though. The plastic serving cups are too small for the amount of gelato they hold, so it tends to melt and run down the sides, making for a messy experience. The plastic "spoon" is weirdly shaped like a small, flat shovel, and I much prefer a utensil shaped like a conventional spoon. Lately I've taken to bringing my own metal spoon with me. The cups also have an odd scalloped shape rather than smooth sides. I don't see any advantage to it, and it just makes getting all the gelato out harder than it should be. Switching to bigger cups with smooth sides, ideally biodegradable paper, would be an easy fix. As for the gelato itself, it's good but not great. I do enjoy sitting outside on a warm summer evening with a cup, but I can't say I ever find myself craving the product. Finally, and this is admittedly a very minor point, "Royal Café" is not a great name for this type of establishment. It sounds more like the name you would expect for a Chinese restaurant.
