Great stop for ice cream, it was expensive but even the smalls are enormous. Next time I'd probably…read morejust split a small with someone, as they seem on board with adding 2 flavors to one cup but the sign does say 1 flavor only (maybe your scooper will be more agreeable). Make sure to bring cash. There is some seating outside and seemingly always a long line to order when it's hot out. Luckily the line moved quickly. There is a huge list of flavors, so inspect them before it's your time to order. I got the bourbon maple pecan which tastes a bit like a butter pecan but with a more intense flavor and a bit of a kick and the Maine blueberry. Both were great, but the blueberry was both unique and out of this world! A great flavor to try while in Maine. There is also a Maine blueberry pie which I was also curious about. I was delighted by the flavor options and the taste. Great place for a summer treat!

"Oh, daddy You soothe me with your smile…read moreYou're letting me know You're the best thing in my life" (Fleetwood Mac) We were in Wells on the past weekend, and to our surprise not all of the ice cream shops had opened for the season. Some were, some weren't. But fortunately, Big Daddy's were! And to prove it, there was one helluva healthy line of customers waiting to get their frozen fix in a cup or a cone. They have around 50 ice cream flavors, plus some sorbets, sherberts, and yogurts. We were so intrigued by one of their flavors that we both ordered it. I mean, c'mon, when have you ever seen Banana Chocolate Chip on a menu? It was excellent. Smooth and creamy with a definite banana flavor and plenty of chocolate chips. A Kiddie portion was a pricey $6.95, but in all fairness, that Kiddie portion was equal in size to some of the "small" scoops we've had over the years at various ice cream joints. Big Daddy has four locations in the Wells, Ogunquit, and Kennebunkport area, so if you're up this way during the summer, you won't be too far from experiencing an experience with Big Daddy!

Big Daddy's came up during our research and did not disappoint! Although there was a solid line on a Friday evening, it moved fairly quickly. When it was our turn to order, the staff was super patient and helpful; we didn't feel rushed at all. Loved that there was a menu listing of all flavors outside which we were able to review while in line - and were better poised to make a flavor decision when we got to the counter. This small but busy shop was full of great energy and charm, and we lived the outdoor seating space too. Walking out with coffee Heath, bubblegum, almond joy, and Oreo - we were a happy bunch with this sweet ending to our night! Might need to come back for the blueberry pie a la mode though...

After lunch we always look for something to cool down with, so we decided to make a stop in here after taking a short walk in the shopping area. "What's your popular flavor?" Which were Maine blueberry and a whoopie pie flavor (vanilla base with whoopie chunk pieces) both were good but the whoopie pie was a bit sweet for me. Those were the only two flavors that I tried since I didn't want to hold up a line and be indecisive, per usual lol, so I went with the strawberry cheesecake and the Maine blueberry. Both ice creams were really good and I'm glad the Employee put the blueberry on the bottom as "save the best for last" Both ice creams weren't overly sweet. The Blueberry had a balance natural blueberry taste without tasting too tarty. The strawberry Cheesecake had strawberry swirls AND also HUGE chunks of cheesecake pieces with the graham cracker crust which elevated the flavor! I wonder if they make their own cheesecake or use a cheesecake from a local bakery. you could get milkshakes, sundaes and add toppings to your ice cream. You can even buy coffee along with making a coffee milkshakes. Paid parking if you're visiting the area to walk the trail or shop. This place is a good addition for this area. I'm not familiar with the area but seems like this ice cream parlor is the only one in this neighborhood besides the one we saw near the light house. Definitely check them out!

The staff worked quickly to satisfy the many orders for the people who were visiting. I thought it would take a while, but it didn't!

Blizzards are always good but they don't travel well......so if you order any of the ice cream you better consume it immediately because it liquifies within minutes.
