Love this little ice cream shop!…read more I've visited Butter & Cream before, but my latest visit was a favorite. After spending a sunny afternoon celebrating my besties birthday with her and a few of our girlfriends, we decided to keep the fun going with some ice cream. Never too old for a random sweet treat! Although we were already in the neighborhood, we lucked up on a day when everybody and their mama were outside, which meant limited parking. So we had to pay for parking on this visit, but ended up making it worthwhile by strolling around Decatur Square with our cones. I When we entered, there was one employee behind the counter and they were so kind. There were a few customers in front of us and some behind us in line, so apparently we weren't the only adults in the city who were craving a sweet treat. The store was so cute and covered in art and clocks created with ice cream scoops. We decided to taste a few flavors that were new to us and the employee was so patient with us. We all decided to go with the honeycomb flavor, and I added on a scoop of strawberry because I believe in treating myself. I was bummed that they didn't have sugar cones, but a waffle cone worked. My ice cream was SO good! And they were quite generous with the scoops. As I'm writing this out, I'm wanting a fresh pint of my own again. Such a great stop when you're craving something sweet!

Butter & Cream in downtown Decatur is typically my go to spot when I am in the area and craving ice…read morecream, so I was excited to try something new on this visit. I ordered the Cookie Monster with toffee cone bits on top. The texture of the ice cream was great, very smooth and creamy, which is exactly what you want. However, the flavor itself just did not come through. It almost tasted like a base without much depth. The only moments of real flavor were when I bit into the cookie pieces or the toffee bits, which were both enjoyable, but the ice cream on its own felt like it was missing something. It is a bit hard to describe because the consistency was there, but the taste simply did not match. That said, I am not writing Butter & Cream off at all. I have had other flavors here that were absolutely delicious, which is why I am willing to give this one another try. Overall, still one of my preferred ice cream spots in Decatur. I am just hoping for a little more flavor the next time I order the Cookie Monster.

(keep your sample spoons for your actual gelato purchase) heck...we are trying to save the planet people. Anywho! My choses was to die for. The lemon was lemony which I truly loved. That lemon tart had that one eye twirking (LOL). That's when you know you got a good lemon flavor. The strawberry was the giving every bit of spring. My grandson almost finished his Carmel coffee/strawberry cup before we got to the car. I thought that was a disgusting combination but he said he LOVED LOVED it. So, the next time I have to pick him up I guess this will be one of our Decatur spots to come to. Take my advice go try them out. They have several flavors to choose from.

Since it was a nice day outside, we decided to dine al fresco. Once we were seated, we encountered another wait, but this time it was because they hadn't assigned a server to our table. We had to get someone's attention because we noticed other people seated after us were being waited on. We ended up with Sienna as our server. She started us off with complimentary bread. We decided to order our cocktails, appetizers, and entrees since we had been waiting. I had the sangria, and my husband had the limoncello. We enjoyed both cocktails. For appetizers, we had calamari and cheese sticks, and the cheese sticks were definitely our favorite--they had a unique twist. For entrees, we ordered the lamb ragu and the chef's special, which was seafood ravioli. To end the night, we had the brownie sundae with salted caramel gelato. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and drinks. Although the service was a bit slow at first, Sienna was attentive. We look forward to visiting Paolino again in the future.

The staff is always friendly, and they have a great loyalty program, so I'd definitely recommend entering your phone number when you visit. My go-to order is the mango sago drink along with the taiyaki with custard. Their custard is a little different from what you'll find elsewhere. It's light and fluffy, almost like whipped cream has been folded into it, with just enough saltiness to balance the sweet taiyaki batter, which has a subtle hint of almond flavor. Since it's right by Emory, it can get pretty busy, especially on weekends and later in the evening. Overall, it's a spot I keep coming back to.

I'm no stranger to bubble tea or fruit teas, but it was my first time here and I wanted to try something different. The woman at the register was incredibly helpful. After I mentioned that I don't like drinks that are overly sweet, she explained the sweetness levels and recommended a tea that ended up being perfect. I stayed for a couple of hours working on my computer and watched the place gradually fill up during the lunch rush. I loved the mix of people coming through -- parents with babies and strollers, people working quietly on laptops, friends playing Uno and Connect Four, and locals just stopping in for their usual tea. It felt welcoming. Also worth mentioning, the bathroom was spotless and fully stocked, which always says a lot to me about a business.

The seating is comfortable and there is good lighting. There are board games you can play and merchandise you can buy, as well. The employees are helpful and friendly.
