    Cotton Candy Kiddie Cup

    My favorite ice-cream shop in the whole wide world! I was hyping this place up and even my picky boyfriend of all time loved this place for the first time. Friends and family approved! Also kid friendly. I have been coming here for years and the best part is that they have HOMEMADE ice cream. The icecream is creamy, sweet, and holds its temperature (doesn't melt fast). There is a wide variety menu items ranging from hard ice cream, sherbet, sorbet, yogurt, sugar free options, gluten free cones, drinks, sundaes, icecream cake! There is always a line but it's a popular place and attracts a lot of guests. Well worth the wait. There is outdoor seating with cute picnic tables. It's iconic for its adorable cow signage out front.

    My GF brought me here for the first time after hyping this place up and it did not disappoint.. my new FAVORITE ICE CREAM SHOP! Man this place hits! Delicious creamy homemade ice cream spot with awesome flavors. I'm a sucker for birthday cake ice cream so that was my first flavor I tried and it was so so good! Instantly can tell it was high quality homemade ice cream and didn't melt all over the place. They don't offer soft serve ice cream but they have a large variety of hard ice cream along with sherbet, sorbet, yogurt, and sugar free options along with sundaes, drinks, ice cream cakes, and a small candy fudge shop connected to it! 10/10 would recommend and can't wait to go back to try different flavors!

    The Ice Cream Machine was a stop for the 6th Annual Search for the Best Scoop Shop RI with RI Food Fights. There is a huge parking lot and plenty of places to sit to enjoy the ice cream. There are picnic tables near the parking lot and an outside patio with string lights. Next to the stand where you order ice cream, there is a store to purchase ice cream cake, fudge, and candy. There are many ice cream flavor options and even seasonal ones. I had their pumpkin oreo. It was very good and creamy. It was very pumpkiny. Service was wonderful. The women behind the counter were friendly and efficient.

    I almost feel biased writing this review because the Ice Cream Machine just feels like my whole childhood in one scoop. But maybe that's the point. I've been to so many ice cream shops & still need to make it a point to stop here whenever I'm home. They have so many flavors and very rarely disappoint. This time I had a scoop of s'mores & pumpkin oreo for the perfect taste of fall. Always great service by the revolving door of high schoolers (just glad I'm too old to see anyone I know anymore). And I love the addition of the extra tables & candy shop. Plus they now take cards!

    Great home made ice cream! Very crowded in the summertime, but they're organized. There are about 4 separate lines to order. Also, most people don't know this, but you can also order ice cream inside where they sell candy. Many outdoor picnic tables are available. Some people eat at back of their vehicles under the hatchback doors in the parking lot. It's a fun place to cool off!

    Great service. Ice cream wasn't anything special. I got blueberry pie but there was only 2 blueberries in a small(a pretty big scoop).

But you either love it or not , I love it. I love the selection in this store , my favorites: mango , passion fruit , red guava and strawberry. They also have ice cream here but I'm not a fan of ice cream. Every time I come here the working crew is always so sweet and attentive. They work fast and keep me happy always. I have never had a problem here. They also have other selections if you don't want a slush like drink. You have to check it out for yourself to understand my love for this place. Check it out ! Enjoy it like I do.

The reason for a few stars knocked off isn't at all because of flavor, choices available or toppings- all are great. It's because of 2 things. First and foremost, the place is beat to s***. There are cracks on the tables, benches, scuffs on chairs, stains on the walls... eek. Secondly, they had one froyo machine broken and no inner dividers for the giant cups (so you can try multiple flavors) like you can at Kiwi Burst, etc.
