    Well portioned and tasty, I got the small white chocolate soft serve it was amazing! My gf got the small chocolate soft serve on a cone. Very flavorful and cheap, 10/10 would recommend. They had maxing service and I loved the shop.

    Oreo + s'mores

    You MUST get the s'mores ice cream I cannot even begin to explain how this graham mallow chocolate ball of heaven has changed my night. 10/10 on creaminess, absolute knockout on flavors, just all around mouthwatering creamy goodness. They have so many options to choose from, nice staff who are very quick as well.

    Great place to grab some quick ice cream. Big selection but always packed and they only take cash.

    I've been living within walking distance to the Lincoln Creamery for over 30 yrs. The ice cream…read moreselections are great. Best hot fudge Sundays! Moreover, they sell best Christmas trees in the area. You get a free quart of ice cream and delivery if your close by. Norman, the owner is very generous and helpful. The place is very clean and well decorated.

    Foods/Drinks: This is the type of ice cream place that you can share every single type of ice cream…read morethat you get because they serve for multiple people in one specific ice cream item. Their ice cream is so tasty, and one of my favorite favorites is the Cookie Monster ice cream, which is ice cream with brownie in a cup, like a sundae. This ice cream was humongous. I mean, it could honestly feed two people easily. My husband got their strawberry milkshake, and he says it's very good, and he said it was TOO filling (what a great problem to have lol) When it comes to their ice cream, they are probably one of the top tier ice cream spots in Rhode Island! Location: This location is in Lincoln, and it has free parking on both sides of the location. It has windows outside to grab and go, and it's very casual and perfect for a quick ice cream date, family outing, or just grabbing for yourself. It's a pretty big ice cream location. I usually tend to go in the summer, so I'm not sure how it works during the winter. I have gone here multiple times throughout my lifetime since it's been open for a very long time. When I was younger, they would open the inside as well, and it was very nice and aesthetically pleasing, with very 80s vibes. I'm not sure if they still open it, but if they do, I would definitely take a look and eat inside as well! Service: The service is always quick, and they usually have a good set of staff, so you never feel like you're waiting too too long. Even on the hottest summer days, and long lines it's usually pretty quick to get your ice cream! I will continue to come here, and we'll probably be taking my future kids here as well!

    Three Sisters has become one of our favorite places to grab ice cream on the East Side. It's a…read moregreat little shop on Hope Street, and if you're already spending time in the neighborhood, it's an easy place to recommend. The hardest part of visiting is deciding what to order. They have a huge selection of flavors, and every time we go in I end up standing there longer than I planned because there are so many tempting choices. It's the kind of problem every ice cream shop should have. The ice cream itself is outstanding. It's fresh, creamy, and packed with flavor without feeling overly heavy. Every flavor we've tried has been excellent, and it's easy to see why this place has developed such a loyal following. In my opinion, it's the best ice cream on the East Side. Just be prepared to wait if you're stopping by on a nice evening. The shop is fairly small inside, and it's not uncommon for the line to stretch right out the front door. Thankfully, the staff keeps things moving, and the wait has always been worth it. The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality of the ice cream and the generous portions. Parking can be a little hit or miss since it's mostly street parking, although there are a handful of spaces behind the building. Somehow we've been lucky the last few visits and managed to grab a spot right out front, even when there was a long line. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is because the small space and limited parking can make visiting during peak hours a little less convenient. Once you have your ice cream, though, it's hard to complain. If you're looking for fantastic homemade ice cream in Providence, Three Sisters absolutely deserves a visit. Just bring a little patience if you're going on a warm summer evening.

    It is hard to get ice cream wrong, but three sisters does it so well!…read moreThey have an extensive board of flavors (my favorite is the community kulfi!) Having a job that has me outside most of the day it is really nice to have a friendly space to stop in and cool off. There are no steps to get in, the menu board is large and readable, and they offer things like individual ice creams, smoothies, and milkshakes as well as larger tubs of their homemade ice cream, ice cream cakes, gift cards, and do in store pickup for online orders as well ​as delivery through doordash.

The staff is not only incredibly friendly, but they take allergy safety more seriously than anywhere I've ever been. From the moment we walked in, they treated us with genuine care and went above and beyond to make sure my 3‑year‑old could enjoy her treat safely. What stood out the most was how intentional and reassuring they were. They didn't just say they understood her allergy--they showed it. They used a clean scoop, took her custard directly from the top of the machine, and explained each step so I knew she was safe. No other place has ever taken the time to do that for us, and it made such a difference. As a parent, that level of caution and kindness makes life so much easier and so much less stressful. The staff's warmth, patience, and attention to detail were unmatched. They made my daughter feel special, included, and safe, and that means everything. Meadows Frozen Custard has earned our trust and our loyalty, and I couldn't recommend them more highly.

I was always sad we didn't have a RITAS around here because when I visit my friends in PA and NJ it's SO GOOD and this tops ritas. They have a little freezer where you can even get some to go! The ladies working were so nice and brought it to our table and were sweet to my daughter. Them having a drive thru is dangerous because I'll be flying by each night on the way home this summer!

They also have ice cream here but I'm not a fan of ice cream. Every time I come here the working crew is always so sweet and attentive. They work fast and keep me happy always.

The reason for a few stars knocked off isn't at all because of flavor, choices available or toppings- all are great. It's because of 2 things. First and foremost, the place is beat to s***. There are cracks on the tables, benches, scuffs on chairs, stains on the walls... eek. Secondly, they had one froyo machine broken and no inner dividers for the giant cups (so you can try multiple flavors) like you can at Kiwi Burst, etc.
