    Such a nice treat. I love the zucchini bread and carrot jam! Best things to take when you're in need of a hostess gift!!

A must stop if you have company visiting. They have a great flavor offering and you can also build your own ice if you'd like. I've been a few times, but recently I took my nieces and they both decided to get the Mug flavor which is not a fruity flavor. It leans towards cinnamon, root beer and coffee flavors and it was surprisingly soooo good. I cannot wait to get that the next time I go. I also recommend their Pitaya in Paradise which has dragonfruit and lime as well.. Honestly, you can't go wrong as long as you pick typical flavors you like. Check them out the next time you have a free day to vibe out. The staff is super sweet and friendly and are willing to answer any questions. They're really patient.

The pineapple flavored shaved ice was so refreshing, with fresh pineapple on the side and creamy ice cream in the middle. Every bite was top tier the perfect mix of fruity, sweet, and creamy. The only thing is that I could not finish it because the serving was so filling! Go with a very light stomach or bring someone to share one with. Highly recommend!

    I stopped in hoping to try both the ice cream and a matcha latte. Since they offer coffee drinks, I…read morewas excited when asked if I wanted to add another flavor to my matcha. I chose strawberry, but it was straight strawberry syrup. In hindsight, I probably should have gone with the ice cream option instead. The bigger issue was cleanliness. When I went to pay, the card reader had what looked like some oily substance on it. My tap payment wouldn't read, so I had to insert my card, and afterward, I had to wipe it down before putting it back in my wallet. It wasn't the best impression. The ice cream may be the main attraction here, but with so many great ice cream shops in the area, nothing about this visit really stood out enough to bring me back. If you're coming specifically for a matcha latte, there are probably better options nearby. Unfortunately, I don't see myself stopping in again.

The decor was really cute and everything on the menu looked really good. I decided to try their chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream mixed with a caramel pretzel ice cream (10/10) it was really good and the two ice cream flavors together ended up being a good choice; different from what I usually get. I def wanna go back to try their milkshakes and other items. My overall rate of experience : 9/10

My friends and I got different eggs benedicts and they were all amazing, I wish the one I got had more crab or some greens in it, but still delicious. My friends got the Swanky Benedict and it was better imo -- the chicken was super good and it was def more filling. The service was a little slow, maybe because we were outside, but we didn't mind too much because the weather was nice.

I ended up on the combo of their soup and salad since their soup also sounded good. I was hesitant on the strawberries in the wine country salad since I know they're not in season really, but they were lovely. Everything in the salad worked well together and the dressing was nice and vinegary while still tasting of raspberries. It was very well balanced except for the ratio of toppings to greens. I feel as though there was just a little too much toppings. It could've used more leafs. As for the soup, it was a little bland, but after adding salt and pepper it tasted nice. It was mostly soup rather than crab or corn though. That was my only critique really, the temperature was good as well. It could've used some crackers on the side, but it wasn't necessary, just would've been a nice touch. Our waitress was quite nice, checked up on us and got us refills. All of our food came out together and hot. The sandwiches on other people's plates all looked wonderful, and after having a shoestring fry, I can definitely say next time I will be ordering some of those. As far as ambiance goes, it was nicely lit but still moody, which was appreciated. Very chill in there. Only reason I rate it 3 stars is because I feel as though there's room for improvement food wise, and price wise. $20+ for almost everything on the menu is pretty ridiculous. Even for some of the simple items. I don't think the food is that good, proportionately appropriate, or creative to be that much money. Maybe it's just me, but that's how I feel. I'll probably be back to try more items, I'd recommend coming here at least once to try if you haven't, during happy hour to get the best prices if you can.

    Excellent taste for ice cream. Definitely ice cream and not Gelato. Limited flavors. But really…read morewell done. Friendly staff.

    I have a number of points …read more.. First, I needed ice cream!! The homemade kind of ice cream, which is what every ice cream conneisseur deserves. Ice cream is a stress reliever and smile creator so I happily searched out Lolly's even through construction obstructions on the street. Upon arrival I discovered a rather uh ... abandoned looking, worn out potentially closed "shack" a few blocks from the beach. In the dark shadows of the interior sat a young man with a friendly smile. I was really surprised by the minimalist approach to ice cream flavors for an ice cream establishment a few blocks from the beach in a resort town but I wasn't going to leave. The young man recommended the blueberry lemon, which was "the flavor of the week (I think that's what he said.). I was already in STICKER SHOCK because I saw what I was going to pay for a two scoop regular. His smile convinced me ... lemon blueberry and I added coconut almond as scoop number two. Both scoops were packed with their unique flavors with lots of almonds in the coconut almond. The lemon blueberry was very flavorful. Neither was a creamy as I prefer from homemade ice cream but definitely above average. Secondly, I have already made mention of this ... NO TWO SCOOP ICE CREAM should ever cost more than $9 (after taxes) even in a resort area!! OUTRAGEOUS and if I lived locally I'd never be back ... actually living out of town I'll never be back. A good pint of Ben and Jerry's is a better option. With such high priced ice cream you would think that they'd clean up the place but perhaps they consider down and dirty a "beach feel." Yes, I am sure the road construction has impacted them (I asked the smiling young man and he said business is slow in the afternoon but says weekends are busier.) including their ability/interest in keeping up appearances. So, if you are a tourist with some cash or a good credit card status .. you'll find some good ice cream at Lolly's. I enjoyed my once and done treat.
