Not the best presentation of my chocolate and vanilla swirl ice cream but it tasted great! Chocolate and vanilla soft serve , you can add up to 4 toppings (I added gummy bears, graham cookies, oreo, and pistachio and then i got chocolate fudge! Everything cost about $12. A bit expensive for a cup of ice cream but satified my cravings! read more

The soft serve texture was great, but the flavors were barely there. I got a cookie monster/ube swirl and although I could kind of taste the ube, both were bland. Cookie monster was supposed to be vanilla with blended oreos, but all I got was a strange cookie flavor aftertaste. The strawberry shortcake crumbles were unique but didn't really taste like anything. We also got the mango real fruit soft serve (New Zealand style) but it was not good. The mango flavor was dull and sour. I was disappointed by Softspot and won't be returning. read more

came on a busy Friday night with my friend after we had dinner across the street. I've been eyeing this spot since they first opened and glad to have finally made it over! we ordered an ice cream each (which comes with unlimited toppings) and two different dirty sodas. the dirty sodas were exactly what you'd expect. flavoring + creamer mixed with your preference of soda. the shaken espresso soft serve was delicious. I opted for sprinkles on mine because I am a child and sprinkles make me happy haha the ube wasn't bad, but definitely not what I'd go for again. all in all, this is a great spot to hang out and chill. I believe the owner of this spot is also the owner of eggholic a few stores down. they have board games and card games for families as they chill and enjoy their desserts. I'd come back to try another dirty soda for sure! read more

A new, popular, super cute and vibrant soft serve shop, same owners as Jamun in Dulles Town Center mall, serving you New Zealand ice cream, cookies, and dirty sodas! The soft serve was delicious! My parents and I tried their Ube and Shaken Espresso Swirl topped with toasted coconut and Biscoff cookie crumble, and it was SO GOOD! Their soft serve is "not too sweet" approved, and very easy to eat and demolish haha. I also ordered two MOLTN cookies, the classic chocolate chip and M&M, and these have got to be one of my favorite cookies I've had in Northern VA. Service was overall pretty quick, just expect a little wait for the cookies as they are made fresh to order. Also went on a Saturday night, and the place was pretty packed! read more

Hubby and I going back and forth on things... we only ordered a soft serve vanilla as he is a purist and usually only goes vanilla.... By taste he wanted more vanilla ... I really liked it as not overly sweet which is usually my objection. We both decided if we look at this as a base it would then be perfect for add ons.... And there are a ton on options... plus they do have other flavors as well... need to try the ube I think my biggest complaint is sizing. Only one cup size which is way to big for me as I've been watching my caloric intake... and hubby is diabetic... would have liked a 1/2 or child sized option Nice clean inside... you order at the kiosks ... couple of tables for sitting inside... can't wait till we have warmer weather read more

A friend from out of town described this as the best soft serve they've ever had in their lives. I thought it was pretty good. Could use more kiosks for ordering as the teens flocked around them are a chaos. Turn around on ordering was nearly instant. The number of choices were dizzying, which is why the decision paralysis takes a lot of the kiosk time. Ice cream was great, cones were great. The space itself is a horror ill designed for a crowd. Ambiance in a walk up soft serve joint is of zero interest to me, so no impact in this review. read more

Softspot is a new dessert shop in Chantilly that took over from the old Dairy Queen (located near the Don Churro). No matter what you are in the mood for, Softspot has a lot to choose from! I stopped by and tried a few things: - MOLTN cookies (white chocolate macadamia nut and a regular chocolate chip cookie) -Strawberry Moonshine -Chocolate/Vanilla frozen yogurt swirl -Ube/Espresso frozen yogurt swirl The cookies are baked fresh and were super hot (you can choose to get already baked cookies if you're in a rush.) The Strawberry Moonshine was a cool twist on a Dr. Pepper. And of course, not to forget about the frozen yogurt -- it was tasty! This place ought to be really popular in the summer when it's sweltering hot and humid outside. Even though it's winter right now, this place was a fantastic way to have a sweet treat. read more

I was very excited to try this place out, unfortunately it failed me. The place is cute and very busy. I ordered a coconut base strawberry ice cream and it was just very gross. It looks very pretty but the taste just wasn't correct. I know they were having problems with the machine so I'm not sure if that's why my ice cream had a bad taste. My kids had the regular vanilla base ice cream and seemed to enjoy it. I don't think I'll give it another try unfortunately. read more

A surprising treat! Upon looking at the menu I was very excited to try Softspot but it was even better than I was expecting! My husband and I both got the Ube and Cookie Monster swirl. I got mine in a cup with Biscoff crumbs and my husband got his in a birthday cake cone with Oreo crumbs. The ice cream was packed with flavor and super creamy! We loved every bite! My one piece of feedback is the cone seemed very thin so my husband's ice cream was leaking out making it a very messy experience. Otherwise, 10/10! We will be back! read more

I went here with a few friends for a post-brunch sweet treat, and it was such a godsend on a hot day! The space is a bit small with limited seating, but it's very clean with a cute little photo op spot. The service was also fast, they kept up fairly well with the line that formed pretty much right after opening. I had the New Zealand mango soft serve with toasted coconut flakes as a topping. The mango flavor came through the vanilla ice cream so well, especially with the chunks of mango mixed in. The portions were also super generous. I ordered a kid cup since I wasn't sure if I could finish a full-sized cup, and you can see that the portion was almost twice as much as the cup itself, which was overall a lot of value for what I paid. My friends got the dragon fruit flavor, which they said didn't come through as much, mostly vanilla. I'm not going to fault them that much since dragon fruit has a generally neutral flavor, it's just something to keep in mind when ordering the New Zealand flavors. I would definitely recommend this spot for a unique sweet treat if you're in the Chantilly area. read more

Obsessed The UBE soft serve at Soft Spot is next level. Creamy, dreamy, and perfectly sweet, topped with toasted coconut that adds the perfect crunch. Every bite was pure yum. If you're an ube lover (or want to be), this is a must-try. I'll definitely be back for more! read more

Saw this new ice cream spot opened so I stopped by to check it out. I got the passion fruit soft serve and a couple cookies. While the aesthetics of the place was nice, I thought the treats fell a bit short. The soft serve was nice and creamy but the passion fruit flavor was way too tart. It was so sour that it was hard to finish it. The cookies were also just ok. Nothing really amazing and a bit expensive for the size. Not my favorite dessert place but may have to come back to try a better flavor. read more

Okay, so I stopped by solely persuaded by their marketing of "NEW ZEALAND" ice cream. I haven't been to NZ, so I was excited. Heck, it's another sweet AF American ice cream to me (if not sweeter). I know I'm reviewing an ice cream place, and it's supposed to be sweet, but the cookie monster and ube twist I had was overwhelmingly sweet. Ice cream could be subtly sweet and creamy, you know? Maybe I'm too old for ice cream now lol Anyway, the place is new, and it is summer, so it is packed. Expect a crowd and wait. The pastel-colored decor is working. I dig it. Ice cream itself? Hmm, I'll give it a second chance and try just the ube. Hopefully, it's less sweet by itself. read more

Sucks I drove 40 minutes here just for them to not have the coconut or vegan vanilla base. Last time I was here they didn't have the vegan vanilla base which was fine and I got the coconut.

I wanted to try this as I saw an ad on instagram about this place. Although this is a slight hike for me i happened to be in the area. It's definitely a cute little spot, and since I tried Jamun in Dulles I was hoping this will be like that. The menu is pretty extensive, and they have an ordering portal in store, however things are not that obvious and needs more description of what the items are on the menu. I got a vanilla flavored base with dragonfruit mixin. Pistachio swirl anf coconut. The service was extremely slow and the workers kind of seem like they don't know what they are doing. Anywho...as far as taste goes...it was not good. I can't even explain. I've had $5 dollar things taste 100% better than this. Where as i paid almost $12 just for my portion. It was hard to eat . read more

A soft serve spot with cookies, New Zealand ice cream AND dirty sodas? I'm in! I'm sad to see Dairy Queen go, but Soft Spot is just so tasty!!!! It's also conveniently by Don Churro and Lotte, along with many other spots in Chantilly that I love to visit. It's really clean, well-lit and spacious inside, with a cool step area to take some fun pictures. They also have a self-order kiosk, but you can also order at the register. There's plenty of treats for everyone, and they even have some family-oriented games to keep everyone entertained. I ordered the Strawberry Moonshine dirty soda and the strawberry base New Zealand ice cream (with strawberry shortcake + biscoff crumbles). My friend ordered an espresso + ube soft serve and added biscoff crumbles on top and loved it. We ordered some other dirty sodas as well such as the Lemon Lagoon and Voltage Rush to-go. It was pretty busy in here, and there was someone creating content for them so there were a lot of mix-ups and drinks that weren't made on time. The staff/ managers apologized and made extra drinks/ replacements for us. They randomly got a huge rush right after we got in, so it's completely understandable. My friend and I really enjoyed all the items here, and would definitely come back! read more

I usually gravitate toward hard ice cream, so soft serve spots aren't always on my radar--but SoftSpot in Chantilly changed that. I was intrigued by their sundaes, especially because they're made with warm MOLTN cookies and fully customizable. That combo was enough to get me in the door for my first visit, and I'm really glad I gave it a try. I ordered a sundae, which came with a soft serve base, up to four non-liquid toppings, a cookie, and an optional liquid topping. I went with the chocolate vanilla twist soft serve, which was rich and creamy--definitely closer to custard quality than your average soft serve. I topped it with crushed Butterfinger, almond pieces, and rainbow sprinkles for a sweet and slightly savory blend, then added chocolate shell for a small upcharge (totally worth it). The real standout, though, was the red velvet chocolate chip cookie. Heated to a brownie-like texture, it blended beautifully with the rest of the sundae and added a unique richness I wasn't expecting. Yes, it took about 15 minutes for my sundae to be ready, but that's because they warm the cookie to order--a step I truly appreciated. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared, and the end result was one of the best soft serve desserts I've had in a long time. I was also impressed by the variety of flavors they offer: in addition to the standard twist, there's cookie monster, ube, and New Zealand-style blends made with real fruit and a choice of vegan or dairy bases. The atmosphere at SoftSpot was laid-back and pleasant. Even on a Saturday night at 8:30, it wasn't too crowded, and ordering through the kiosks was quick and convenient. The staff was friendly, and I liked the casual setup with a few tables and a shelf full of board games--everything from classics like Chess and Monopoly to newer options like Catan and Family Cards Against Humanity. It feels like the kind of place you could hang out for a bit and enjoy a treat without feeling rushed. I'm already thinking about what flavor to try next time. read more

Like Crumbl for soft serve if crumbl had workers who couldn't communicate with you, took 45 minutes to get your ice cream, and was even more overpriced. Like there are ice cream spots but as a sort of upper-class shop the service was worse than a neighborhood creamery. Neighborhood creameries have excellent service actually and are half the price. read more

I was thoroughly impressed when I stopped by for some desserts after a meal nearby. The soft serve ice cream--ube and Cookie Monster topped with strawberry shortcake crumbs--was incredibly refreshing and delicious. I also tried one of the molten cookies, the white chocolate, and macadamia, and it was perfection: crunchy with just the right amount of sweetness. The inside was cozy and clean, and the service was friendly. They even have some board games to play with friends. Plus, it was well air-conditioned, providing a cool, refreshing escape from the heat outside. read more
