    I really like to go here. I could easily buy the ice cream at the Halo Farm location next to the…read moreTrenton Farmers Market (and I do!), but sometimes I just want to go to this place after dinner, wait through the inevitable line, and sit down and enjoy some ice cream that's honestly as good as or better than any of the fancy brands at the grocery store. They've an impressive range of flavors, and I try to always try a flavor that I've not had in a long time, however I need to have my chocolate cherry more often than not. It's also very common to see people walking along the counter to pick their flavors. If you haven't made a decision, and the people behind you in line know what they want, do the right thing and let them go first. They give healthy scoops, and one scoop, although it doesn't sound like much, might be enough for someone with less post-dinner space available in their belly. If it's your first time visiting, watch the scoops being given to the person in front of you before making your decision. As an added bonus, during Spring and Summer Saturday nights, they have live music in the room as well. It's a cheap, fun date.

    I am sad to give this a mediocre review, but this is the third time I visited and they were missing…read morestrawberry chip - which is a fan favorite. They keep leaving the boxes of ice cream on top of the counters to restock and then serve long lines of customers. This makes the ice cream very melty and causes freezer burn. Halo Pub does not allow tastes anymore so when they are out of your family's favorite flavors, it is a blind guess as to what to order. The hot fudge is delicious, but hard to enjoy when they give so little and the ice cream starts out melty. I hope the management will start listening to customer feedback and fix the stocking issues. The staff says that they request more stock of popular flavors, but don't get them. Lastly, the bathroom is nasty.

    One of the best places you can get ice cream full stop. Last time I went, it was a dark and chilly…read morenight, but that didn't stop the line from wrapping all the way down the block. The bent spoon always commands that kind of line and is always worth the wait. In addition to their rotating flavors, they also have pints for sale, some baked goods, and even some hot chocolate (in the colder months)! The ice cream itself is perfectly rich and creamy, with a great consistency. The flavors are always unique, but not unwelcome. I always make a point of trying to stop in whenever I'm in the area. Just don't be deterred by the line: It's worth it.

    10 stars! This place has consistently been one of the best ice cream shops I've ever been to. Even…read moreon a relatively cold spring evening there was a line that stretched halfway down the block. The shop itself is very small with extremely limited seats (if any) so plan to walk around town while you enjoy your ice cream. They have their usual standard flavors, and several seasonal ones that rotate. They allow samples so I'd recommend trying out their rotating flavors even if it sounds like something you normally wouldn't go for. They can make just about anything taste good!

    First off, just entering the bakery, the smell.... Although I already ate before arriving, I could…read moredefinitely eat again. Keeping my "blinders" on, my mission is to get a few of those famous crispy bakes for my daughter's 26 birthday instead of buying a whole cake. My attendant, Eimau, (hope I spelled correcty, if not, my apologies) was so pleasant and his patience servicing me has me leaving with not only a few bakes, but cake pops, cupcakes and macaroons!! You have to try this nice place, so good. Thank you all for your service.

    I returned to Lilla Vanilla after a mediocre visit a couple of months ago. I was initially on the…read morefence due to the two viral crunches I tried--only one was enjoyable--and I wasn't impressed with the service. That said, I don't believe in writing a place off after a single average experience, so I decided to give it a second chance. This time, I ordered two different viral crunches along with a croissant. Unfortunately, the results were disappointing across the board. The Mixed Berry Crunchy was cute in presentation, but that was its only redeeming quality. There was no bold--or even subtle--mixed berry flavor. At $10, it felt wildly overpriced and not worth the calories. Next was the Lemon Crunchy, which is supposed to feature a lemon blueberry flavor. As someone who loves lemon, I had high expectations, but once again it was bland and forgettable. Since this is a bakery, I also tried a fresh croissant and asked for it to be warmed. The staff accommodated the request, and it smelled incredible. It was warm, light, and flaky--but sadly, the flavor fell flat. A light brushing of butter on top would have gone a long way. For me, this is strike two. Unfortunately, Lilla Vanilla just isn't worth the money or the calories. Based on my experience--mediocre service on the first visit, bland and overpriced featured items on the second, and only neutral-to-slightly-positive notes on the croissant--I'd rate it 2 out of 5 . I seriously contemplated giving them 1 star but to be fair, the viral crunchy presentation was appealing and the croissant did have good texture (even if the flavor missed).
