    Toppings
    Monique W.

    This place is very small and cute, but I'd honestly rate it a 3.5. I drove around three times trying to figure out where to park. The signs on the side streets were super confusing and I couldn't understand them. The parking lot was closed off coming in from 12th, I guess it was only able to get into it from the side road, but it was single lane and very narrow. I had no idea if that was the entry to the parking lot or not so I didn't even try. It literally had two spots so I didn't try. One spot was taken and there was a handicap I could have parked in. An older entitled man came and parked in the spot between the handicap spot and the normal spot. The marked off area. The ice cream itself is ok. Nothing that I would want to bother myself with trying to try to find parking with again. The service was good. As soon as I walked in I was asked if I needed any help or wanted to sample anything. I didn't get a chance to look at the menu yet, but it is awesome that they allow you to sample things. I had a twist of sweet cream and chocolate. Small. Fudge and peanut brittle chips. She definitely loaded the small cup up. I had three chips in the cup. The total was under $7, but over $6. I probably wouldn't come back here just because I hate trying to figure out where will I park. I had to park near the fanci freeze. I'm not against walking, I just hate trying to figure out where I'm supposed to park.

    Cute soft serve ice cream shop with delicious flavors. Welcoming service and loved the options and toppings they offer.

    Best soft serve in Boise! Went an hour before closing and there was a good amount of people out. The staff were helpful in answering any questions I had. The place itself had mix of pastel colors and checkered tiles, with seating inside - very clean! The prices are reasonably too - a mini was $4 and the staff let me choose 2 flavors. The ice cream was smooth and creamy! Heard they change out the flavors each week so would def come back to try new flavors.

    Cute trendy vibe ice cream shop. I will say parking is not the best but it's worth the walk. Service was friendly and helpful. Variety of choices to pick from but not overwhelming. Bonus: it's across the street from our favorite donut shop (DKDonuts). Plenty of space to sit inside or outside. Come give them a try. Worth it.

    Ice cream to go Blueberry/cereal milk swirl and sweet cream/chocolate swirl

    Best ice cream in the valley! I feel like Boise is chock full of traditional hard-pack ice cream shops but soft serve and frozen yogurt is hard to find. No longer! Soft Landing just opened on State Street across from DK donuts and it's the best ice cream I've ever tasted (and I've tasted a lot.) Today was opening day and I found my way in. They have five flavors: four dairy and one vegan. The dairy were sweet cream, chocolate, cereal milk, and blueberry, along with a sorbet blood orange. Each one was bursting with flavors with a velvety, creamy texture. It wasn't icy at all or super rich which allowed the flavor to shine. They have a bunch of fun toppings including potato chips and other non traditional things. Portions were reasonable for the price and they can do a cone or cup. Along with ice cream they have a full espresso bar with great coffee so you can get an affogato or a latte along with your cereal milk ice cream. That's breakfast, right? Service was fast and incredibly friendly. The space is bright and clean and would be perfect for a hang with friends or family. The parking lot is teeny tiny but you can park along State or 14th. Definitely give this place a try. It's amazing!

    Stopped here for a sweet treat and it was pretty good! The inside was super cute with bright tile and a family friendly atmosphere. They had a limited selection of flavors and toppings making it a simple ice cream spot, which I appreciated. We got the sweet cream ice cream with brownie bites and sprinkles. Very creamy ice cream and the brownie bites were yummy! It didn't blowww me away but would come here again to satisfy a soft serve craving!

    In town for work and am happily doing an ice cream tour while I'm here. I was excited that Soft Landing had both vegan icecream as well as a vegan gluten free cone for me to try. Both were delicious, as well as the super yummy potato chip brittle I got on top. The huckleberry sorbet was delicious, I really appreciated that it wasn't too sweet. The cone was also great, having a bit more of a cinnamon sugar taste than the usual vanilla cone I'm used to. The service was great. Nice and fast and friendly. I didn't stay to eat but there were some nice seats both inside and outside and a decent ambiance minus the busy street it's connected to.

    Mini chocolate with brownie and cookie bites!
    Emily C.

    Amazing crunchy ice cream! Not only does it taste amazing but it is made without harmful ingredients so you can enjoy a sweet treat without the terrible dyes and artificial junk! The store is super aesthetic and clean. The menu is simple yet fun. And the wait staff are all super nice and welcoming. 10/10 recommend! I want to see more businesses like this! They are doing everything right!

The other person there was great though! I was drawn in by the array of unique flavors and vegan options. I had really wanted to get something boozy and vegan, but they only had one flavor on at the moment that fit the bill and I wasn't particularly interested, so I sampled a few of the dairy boozy flavors and went with a vegan non-boozy ice cream for my actual order because a full scoop of dairy ice cream does not sit right in my stomach. I liked the boozy flavors more but that was only because of the flavors offered - the vegan ice cream itself was great, very smooth and creamy, not overly sugary. I got the float season vegan ice cream: blackberry ice cream with salted dark chocolate. I did still enjoy this flavor a lot. I really liked the crunchy bittersweet dark chocolate bits. I didn't get anything to drink but I was kind of tempted. The ice cream + beer or wine flights looked interesting. I don't know wine well enough to comment, but it looked like they had a good selection of beer with quality brewers and a good variety of beer types. This is technically a Warehouse Food Hall vendor but it's only accessible from the street outside the food hall. I wasted a few minutes wandering around the food hall trying to find it before I looked outside. They have a fair amount of seating inside and outside.

I have checked their menu online before so I had a general idea of what kind of goodies they had. I was excited that I finally get to check out the place I drive by all week. I came in late afternoon so it was pretty chill. The gal behind the counter was helping someone in the drive thru window which gave me a minute to look over the menu. I also got to check out the venue while I was waiting. The little shop is so cute! I adore all the Valentines decor everywhere. After scoping out the joint, I headed back to check out the menu again. Everything on the menu looked tasty. Some of the soda combinations looked really good but I didn't know if some of the syrups they had were sugar free. So after the gal was done, I was able to get a couple questions answered. The only sugar free syrup they had was vanilla. Such a bummer since they have so many other flavors to accommodate their drink list. Doesn't give sugar free drinkers many drink options. So, I ordered a custom dirty soda of diet Dr. Pepper with sugar free vanilla and cream. I also ordered a kid's size of chocolate and vanilla swirl custard too. I am in awww at how much custard you get in a kid's size! You are truly getting your money's worth. My drink was wrapped up and I grabbed my goodies and made my way into the side room to enjoy my goodies. I had to sit in the side room to eat my treat. It was fun sitting next to the colorful wall. Whoever painted it did such a great job! My custard swirl was so good! It was creamy. Chocolate and vanilla will always be a winning combination. I ate about half and really wanted to take the rest home but I wasn't going home anytime soon. Sucked I was getting rid of it. I did take a sip of my dirty soda on my way out of the door. I didn't really taste any flavoring in it. I thought maybe the sweetness of the custard was still present on my taste buds so I waited to take another drink. My drink was disappointing. You can taste the cream in it. I don't know if the soda syrup was out but the Dr. Pepper taste was very light. I didn't really taste any of the sugar free vanilla. I did finish the soda cause I didn't want to waste it but I'll just stick to the frozen treats the next time I'm in. Happy I got to stop in today. The custard was so good! I can't wait till it gets hotter and can come here with my husband. Their shakes sound great and my husband is a sucker for a good milkshake. I have a feeling he's going to love this place. I am looking forward having the churro dessert with the custard on top time. That combination just sounds fantastic and it will be a must have the next time I'm in.
