Nice service and convenient to downtown. Lots of flavor options, no sorbet. I had the salted caramel and it is very sweet, one dimensional. read more

Came here for an after dinner sweet treat and was immediately impressed with the number of dairy free ice cream options and gluten free cones. Three of us got DF ice cream and we immediately knew something was off. All of the DF ice creams tasted like coconut even though none of us ordered coconut ice cream. Obviously they use coconut milk as their alternative but the coconut flavor was overwhelming. When you can't taste the mint in a chocolate chip mint ice cream and instead only get coconut something is wrong. If you LOVE coconut this may be the place for you but it was not a hit in my group. read more

Right as you enter, you get a whif of the fresh waffle cones! Me, my daughter and husband got the little cute micro scoops to try it out and it did not disappoint!!! I got the blue raspberry flavor and it was so good! My daughter's strawberry ice cream and my husband's cookie dough flavor were all so good! We can't wait to come back here. The service was great everyone was super nice and welcoming. read more

The hype is real. Their ice cream caters to everybody if you are dairy free and all of the above. Their flavors are great and a good variety and just depends on your taste buds. Their portions are real big we got 3 scoops and boy oh boy were they huge. The service was ok. For it being my first time they weren't as friendly as to tasting a few samples (2 of them) before making decision. She looked a bit annoyed but that didn't stop me from enjoying my ice cream honestly. They have a few spots to sit but not that big. Just grab and go kinda situation. They do have some flavors Pints to go if you wish to grab some of those along with other goodies. The strawberry flavor I got was amazing along with cookies and crème. read more

I can vouch for Cookie Monster Ice Cream. It's blue. Just like Cookie Monster. It's got four different kinds of smushed up cookies folded into it. Drop a scoop or two in a white chocolate coated waffle cone for an all-out happy assault on your tastebuds. Lotsa sugar though. No sugar free options that I know of. Open lateish, 10 during the week. Almost no place to sit, bright white and spare decor. True of all locations I think. Best have another spot in mind to actually eat. Counter service on is level you'd expect. Competent enough, cordial enough. Square services for payment. read more

Stopped in to get my son a tasty treat after dinner. Many different flavors to choose from. The names didn't have descriptions so we had to ask what a few of them were. It would have been nice to be offered samples but there was only one guy working and there were a few other groups of people in line so I didn't ask. I settled on Circus Circus which was delicious. The young gentleman couldn't tell me what was in it because they just got it that morning. It had sprinkles and crushed animal crackers for sure. My son settled on a double scoop of bubblegum and chocolate. He enjoyed his as well. What could be better than house made ice cream? read more

Ice cream was delicious. The service was top notch and friendly. Shop was very cute, but not really a place to sit if you're looking to relax, just a couple small counters. We enjoyed it nonetheless read more

I appreciate the generosity with their scoops, a single scoop is still way too much but I can't complain about solid portion. Flavor variety is nice, I like that there are numerous dairy free options. The seating is kind of awkward but I'm not sure what a better alternative layout would be and I know there are constraints. Their service is so on and off. I've had subpar service so much to the point where I expect it to I worked when I was a teenager and was still expected to provide solid customer service. At a coffee shop, a good number of employees were in high school and absolutely were incredible. Interactions with their employees often is short, as in their answers are short, their tone, etc. I wish a positive customer experience was emphasized more for the staff, regardless of age. read more

Was wandering around downtown during our recent long weekend in Boise and ran across Stella's. Excellent selection of vegan ice cream -- my wife and I were blown away with the variety. Not crowded -- fast friendly service. We loved our choices -- SUPER tasty. Please open a Stella's in San Diego! read more

Stella's is my favorite ice cream in the valley! Flavors are great, lots of cone/topping/baked goods options. Ice cream is consistently creamy, bold, and fresh! My favorite flavors are chocolate peanut butter with Reese's chunks, lemon blackberry, blue moon, and their stand out cookies & cream (the best I've ever tasted) read more

Cute little ice cream parlor in downtown Boise Idaho. It is really homemade rich ice cream so one scoop would be more than enough. You can buy dipped cone sprinkle cones waffle cones or in the cup. There are dozens and dozens of choices plus baked goods like brownies and cookies. The servers are very friendly and helpful and the weight is generally not too long. read more

We were having dinner down the street and came here for dessert. Located on the corner of Main St and N 8th St., a mini restaurant row, it is very small, with minimal seating. Since it was about 95 degrees outside, more indoor seating would be nice. I had a scoop of Blue Moon on a waffle cone. The scoops are small, compared to Ice Cream Alley in McCall, which I frequented a couple days ago, where the scoops are gargantuan. Somewhere in between would be nice. Blue Moon had a nice, tart, berry flavor. My wife and daughter liked their flavors as well. We're new to Idaho, but Stella's is a chain, so I'm sure we will come again, though maybe to another location, since we don't make it into downtown Boise that often. read more

I ordered over $30 worth of ice cream delivered. They never delivered it, wouldn't answer the phone when I called multiple times and left messages, and never called me back. read more

I really wanted to love Stella's. Their ice cream is handmade in small batches, and they have more vegan flavors than I've seen at any other ice cream shop in the world. In fact, they have more flavors than Baskin Robbin's. While this level of variety is impressive, I feel it may be contributing to an overall low quality product. On a Saturday night, there was a line out the door, but it moved quickly. I love ice cream, and did not hesitate to get a double scoop on a cone. I do not remember the flavors I chose, because they did not have much flavor. The scoops were icy and bland. At this price point, I expected full fat, creamy ice cream (I got non-vegan flavors). It tasted watered down, like Breyers-level quality. The waffle cone was passable. read more

Ice Cream at 9:00 pm on a Friday night with the outside temperature at 30 degrees? Yes, please but only at Stella's. I've been to the Eagle location multiple times but this was my first time at the very crowded and busy downtown location. There's not a lot of space and with a line deep with about ten to twelve customers, it can get claustrophobic. I was expecting that there were only be a couple of vegan flavors like the Eagle location but the downtown location has about fifteen vegan flavors including Rocky Road. Geesh. I haven't had Rocky Road since the 1980s at the Payless Drug Store. Stella's Rocky Road vegan version is absolute heaven. Creamy - Check Crunchy - Check Marshmallows - Check Chocolatey - Check 10 out of 10 The staff moves the line along very quickly and if you're fortunate to grab a seat by the window, you get a ringside seat to the craziness that walks along the street. I totally recommend Stella's Ice Cream. Grab a scoop or two and enjoy. read more

I had a wonderful experience Wednesday night. There were two wonderful ladies that helped my family out. We were amazed with the selection of dairy you have to offer at this store. Everyone one in my family was satisfied. I love how they not only engage with the adults but my kids as well. It speaks a lot about the place! We will be back. read more

The ONLY ice cream that matters. Creamy, rich, quality you can taste! They have classics, vegan options, cookies, shakes, and fun toppings. I'm a sucker for a waffle cone and their cookie dough was stellar. Cake batter was also phenomenal, better than cold stone's Our scooper was so kind and I loved the homegrown local feel. read more

My family and I have been here multiple times and unfortunately everytime we have come it has been horrible service. The employees always act like it is such an inconvenience to help customers and answer questions. We have received eye rolls when ordering a milkshake and simply ignored questions when asking what a flavor is. We go back in hopes of it being a fluke but unfortunately it seems to be all the employees. It makes for a really bad environment and from now on we will be going to Stil up the road. read more

I'm visiting Boise and decided to do a little ice cream tour while I'm here. I am allergic to gluten and dairy so I was excited to see all the options they had available. There was a bit of a line out the door when I arrived but the two ladies working the counter were super fast and offered great customer service. I taste tested the vegan Bluemoon which was a little tart and sweet and very creamy. In the end I got a gluten free dairy free waffle bowl with the vegan mint chip. Sometimes vegan ice cream can be sort of icy but this was extremely creamy. My only small complaint is that the base is coconut and toward the end that flavor overpowered the mint a bit more than u would have liked. Overall though the cone was amazing and I would definitely return again in the future to try all the other flavors. Huge shout out to the two counter employees who got many customers moved through quickly and easily. I was impressed! read more

The ice cream is amazing. The people behind the counter work extremely nice. But was very busy. There was only four places to sit because there was a manager, giving her employee who I think was the store manager her review. Let me be clear, these were absolutely Stella's ice cream employees. The manager was loudly telling the employee everything she was doing wrong, like not replacing the battery in the open sign. She also was complaining about ownership, going over in detail why that location has a retention problem, making the employee go over why every single employee quit and then the manager went on to explain why the last manager was fired. This went on for a full hour. Again the place was busy and they were taking up seating that should've been available for the customers. I felt so bad for the employee. The manager just kept talking, louder and louder and louder because the place just kept getting busier and busier and busier. When she was done, the Employee went back behind the counter and started scooping ice cream. read more

Pro-tip: Don't split your scoop into different flavors - they give way less than a regular scoop!! They let you try samples. Highlights: Lot of variety in the flavors and the ambience of the whole store is really neat. Lowlights: Huge pet peeve of mine is when ice cream places have random names for their flavors and don't write out the ingredients so you have to ask what everything is. I was also really disappointed by how small my ice cream portion was when they said I could do multiple flavors instead of one scoop. Overall, I thought the ice cream was just ok, so I would consider it very overpriced and I would recommend just walking over to Negranti across the street instead. read more

We passed by and decided to stop by. The line was out the door. This is a grab and go place you can't sit there. I was pleasantly surprised they had a lot of flavors. Also they had vegan options.

We love going to Stella's anytime we are downtown...very convenient location right at the end of restaurant row. Inside this place is very modern with a few tables and chairs to enjoy your ice cream, but for us we usually grab our ice cream and walk around downtown. The service is always great and the ice cream is fantastic. Lots of selection with unique and traditional flavors. This for sure is one of our favorite ice cream spots in Boise or any of their other locations. read more

Never thought ice cream could taste so bad. My husband got rocky road which was unflavorful chocolate with no nuts nor marshmallows. I forgot the exact name of my flavor but it was almond flavor with wedding cake in it. It was a gritty unflavored frozen dessert. Pathetic and overpriced. read more

We spent a lot of our time in the downtown area and Stella has been the spot for the meetups. I had the Banana toffee ice cream and was impressed with the flavor combination. I have a thing for toffee, but the banana mix was not bad at all. The guys at the counter are so patient and have the time to explain what's in each flavor. Anyways, I definitely recommend y'all stop by and grab a cone. They have so many flavors to chose from! read more

I ordered the Nutella Cheesecake Ice cream to go between my ice cream sandwich that was half brownie and half cookie. I normally don't order something that big but when I noticed that the cookies where freshly baked I had to try it. I didn't taste the Nutella in my ice cream but it had yummy chunks of cheesecake in it. My cookie was perfect and fresh but my brownie was extremely hard unfortunately. My fork broke because it was that hard so I couldn't really eat it unless I broke it with my fingers. If it wasn't for that inconvenience my dessert would have been perfect. It wasn't a big deal for me. Im sure they would have replaced it, if I wanted to walk back to complain. My youngest ordered the mini cone, I loved that they had that option. My older two got a sugar cone with vegan ice cream choices. They really enjoyed the vegan options, that was their first time having vegan ice cream. Great location in Downtown Idaho, so many flavors to pick from and for a great price! It's get busy but the line goes quick. Great customer service! Clean and you tell they use good quality fresh ingredients in their products. read more

I've been coming to Stella's for a while now mainly because their donut humps are awesome and they have fun flavors that rotate all the time. Tonight was my first night at their newest location in the heart of downtown BOI off 8th and Main. The shop was designed very similar to their other location - bright, clean white walls, their menu largely presented behind the ice cream bar in same changeable letter sign display. The available flavors are a little jammed stacked on top of each other which makes it rather hard to reach but it works. The entire place was spankin' clean to adhere to COVID-19 protocols, greatly appreciated. I chose a small cup of animal cookie ice cream with whip, sprinkles and a cherry. The flavor was pretty good, but nothing especially unique. There was a substantial amount of animal cookie pieces in the ice cream, however the ice cream itself is just vanilla dyed pink, I assume. Overall, it was very appealing to the eye, however mediocre to the tastebuds. I'm still giving 4 stars because Stella's continues to innovate their products to keep their brand alive and new. I have no doubt they will soon because a Boise must-try if they keep up the awesome work. read more

You can get your ice cream fix here on a cone, in a cookie sandwich, or in a donut shell. I tried a Hazelnut Hot Cocoa / Pistachio double cone combo, their ice cream is soft and has a nice texture, the pistachio flavor was weak, and the chocolate too sweet. Overall good ice cream. read more

Delicious, creamy, quality homemade ice cream in the heart of downtown Boise. So fun to stop in for a scoop of the abundant and rotating ice cream flavors after an event at the Idaho Central Arena or post dinner on 8th Street. Also have a large variety of flavors for vegans! Staff could be more friendly and seems they are always annoyed you've stopped in. read more
