Good idea to have a date night special for food and games: by the time Friday comes around we're usually too lazy to cook because we're exhausted! What better place to unwind, playing board games on the huge tables is most convenient but the smaller tables are more cosy. Nice selection of games too and good advice about what games to play and HOW to play them! I like it that they added some local games / locally designed games, nice touch. Oh yeah and try the floats too.

Also nice that you can grab some groceries while you're there. There's a decent amount of seating to sit in and have you drink. Also a few spots of free parking behind the store, so you don't have to pay for parking.

It was a lovely shopping experience, with plenty of room to socially distance. We stopped in to check it out and picked up some cucamelons, fancy lemongrass ginger fizzy water, Berkeley North BBQ sauce, and some drinks from the cafe. I love their cold brew and hot coffees, teas and cocktails. So many yummy pastries, produce, cheeses, meats - all farm sourced. There are some grocery items which are arranged on a huge wall of repurposed wood shelves. There is a dedicated spot for flowers / florist with varying bouquet sizes, and plants throughout the space. Looking forward to our next visit!

Their ice cream is really good, I love the toppings and it's not too expensive. My only complaint…read moreas both times I have gone, they have been really low on their selection. I'm sure in the summer I will have better luck. The inside is cute due to the graphics on the wall. It is a little small, so on summer days when I'm sure it's packed, don't plan on sitting inside. It's really lose tot he mountain brow, so I would recommend getting your ice cream and then go for a nice walk along the brow (weather permitting).

the ice cream here is SO GOOD!! they have a lot of unique flavours as well, which was super cool. i…read morevisited with my best friend, and we both had grilled cheeses which were beyond delicious. for dessert i had the cookie monster sundae and she chose a funnel cake. the portions were not bad, the sundae was a bit pricey for basically a small coffee cup of ice cream, but delicious so i can't complain!

I've wanted to try this place for a while so when I saw it on ubereats, I got really excited. Not…read moregoing to lie, given the nature of the puffs, I did worry that delivery wasn't the way to go but we took the leap anyways and these ended up being so good! They took about an hour to arrive and we got 4 flavours: choco-loco, strawberry, cinnapuffs, and caramel. From the first bite, we were all in love. So much so that my sister had to call the restaurant to find out what kind of oil they fried in (canola) because she felt my brother-in-law HAD to try these. His first bite ended with a "wow". These were sweet but not as sweet as you might expect and despite the delivery time of maybe an hour, still had a great crunch! Our order of deliciousness was choco loco, cinnapuffs, strawberry and than caramel (much to our surprise). We will definitely be trying others! We also got a milkshake and hot chocolate. Both good but the puffs are the obvious standout. Ambiance and service is hard to speak to since this was an Uber delivery but the lady on the phone was helpful enough and the branding of the product is clear and bright. Plus, everything came packaged nicely.

Oh em gee! You will not be sorry for pulling into this delightful place! The food (puffs - all I've…read moretried so far) is drool worthy. The service is quick and it has a nice ambiance. You can see them make the puffs fresh right in front of you! I got two of their most popular flavours (chocolate bueno and strawberry cheesecake). Will definitely be going back to try some other flavours. The puffs have a light and crunchy taste that just melt in your mouth .

There's also parking on site which is a plus! My go-to is usually the Unicorn Half & Half (half milkshake, half ice cream), which is topped with cotton candy, nerds, rainbow sour strips. The ice cream used is bubble gum! If you're not interested in their options listed, you can always creat your own! For the piece, you do get a large serving as well. Their paninis are also delicious! I love their Doritos Chicken Panini ($6.99). It is one of my favourites and is something I'd recommend trying.

AMBIANCE: (4/5) The restaurant has expanded since I've been there last. There is much more seating in the back and they added a picture wall that you can use to take IG-worthy photos with your dessert. The lighting is soft but bright which also makes it a great place to hang out The front of the store is getting a little haggard. FOOD: (3/5) The sizes of the icecream scoops here are crazy. I absolutely love how much they give you - matching the price point in terms of quantity. 1. Oreo Icecream Sundae: This sundae was gi-normous and looked soo good - with whip cream, chocolate drizzle, and oreo cookies lining the cup. However, it was a little unsatisfactory. The 'oreo' icecream they used had basically no oreo in the mix. The icecream itself was bland (???). 2. Pralines & Cream: I LOVE pralines & cream. The kiddy scoop I got was so worth it. The icecream was creamy and thick. Exactly like the ones at Purdy's (my absolute favorite) but at a better price. SERVICE: (3/5) The service wasn't SPECTACULAR but was not lacking. The counter stretches around to the convenience store as well, so they service both. The icecream came out 8'ish minutes after we ordered (only 2 people in front of us) - which may be an issue in the summer time as it gets busier. OVERALL: (3.5/5) This is a store you come back at least once a year just because their pics look so good on Instagram & if you don't want to trek uptown to Biggies Icecream.
