    Great little ice cream shop on Block Island! Ice cream portions were good sized. There was a line, but it went fast. There wasn't much space to eat indoors, but there was an outdoor patio with some tables to eat at.

    Definitely stop by for ice cream! I got the oreo and my friend got the s'mores- both were delicious! My friend said the graham cracker base for hers was amazing- truly some of the best. The staff is super nice and the location is so convenient-- right off the ferry! Stop by for a scoop!

    Really enjoyed my time at this small ice cream Shop! It was very refreshing to have a tasty ice cream on such a hot day on the island! I tried the " Cookie Monster flavor" and it was delicious! They also gave me a very generous portion for a great price! However, be warned that they do not take card and you have to pay in cash! The person serving us was also very polite, cheerful and kind! He made the experience at the ice cream shop that much better!

    This place is AMAZING. I went here every night. Their waffle cones are freshly made and fill the small shop with a mouth watering smell! The hot fudge was perfect and all the flavors of ice cream looked and sounded so good. I got peanut butter pie and muddy boots. Peanut butter pie was the perfect flavor for a chocolate and peanut butter lover!

    Well Deserved

    Best Ice Cream on the Island......... Great taste, super creamy. Store made authentic with creative flavors. Try the COWABUNGA CRUNCH, there are so many ingredients, the attendant told us the read the sign, he couldn't remember "Too Many"!! Cowabunga Crunch: Vanilla Ice cream Toffee Bits Caramel Swirl Chocolate Chips Cookie Pieces Pecan = Excellence This is a cash only establishment ***

    The ice cream was good but the waffle cones were stale! We had the coffee brownie ice cream and it was delicious. Cash only so that was a bummer. Lucky we had some cash left!

    South County Bread Company is a family-owned bakery in Wakefield, Rhode Island, known for its…read moresourdough-based breads, croissants, and pastries, made with fresh, in-house milled grains. They are committed to using healthy ingredients. The Morning Buns from this bakery were highly recommended by a local. They did not disappoint. Order included; **Morning Buns - their rendition of a cinnamon bun. "The bakers work this croissant dough for several days, folding in cinnamon, brown sugar, butter, and love. Guaranteed to be one of the best pastries you've ever tasted." The buttery layers melted in my mouth. The cinnamon was fragrant and did not dominate the flavor of the sweet pastry. I understand why they are the most popular item on the pastry menu. **Almond Danish -- My favorite in a close competition after a sampling. The almond paste gave them a pronounced nut flavor as well as a slightly chewy bite. **Monkey Bread pastry -- although fresh tasting, it was a little dry and only mildly flavorful. It was my least favorite. **Chocolate Chip Cookies -- crunchy at edges with a little chew and a pleasant aftertaste of butter. Excellent! As a novice baker of Sourdough Breads, I was pleased to learn that the Bakery has a Sourdough focus using sourdough starter for most products including the croissants believing it's healthier and easier to digest. Amazing! Wish I lived closer. The bread selection was impressive and included Sourdough. Sliced upon request, they are popular and often sold out. I was advised to get there early.

Amazing coffee and baked goods served by genuinely amazing people. An excellent experience... no surprise to overhear them chatting away with their "regulars" who seemed to be there (I laughed when I overheard someone ordering something different than their "usual order"). Charming interior, with space to eat on site. Over two visits in 2 days, I had their morning bun (OMG), spinach feta croissant and pain au chocolate... cannot wait to go back on my next trip to RI (or better yet, please open in NYC ). I think everything was $5.85/each.

I believe it's relatively new because I've never noticed it before on Block Island and I tend to notice ice cream places. Then again it is sort of tucked away in a corner and could be hard to see. The store is small, with a counter for the scream and various candies and other treats scattered around. A couple of tables inside and a courtyard overlooking the ocean on the outside. Saying that the view is great is actually an understatement. We didn't bother with the candy but the ice cream was absolutely incredible. Smooth and rich and no doubt containing a astronomical amount of calories and fat, just the way great ice cream should be. They don't have vast amount of different types but enough variety to satisfy anybody except those looking for something very unusual. There aren't many things better in life than sitting in a beautiful spot over looking the ocean and devouring great ice cream. Even though it was hoter than hell when we were on the island, a cool breeze was coming off the water and combined with the richness and algidity of the great ice cream the world was a perfect place. At least our little part of the world. Their are lots of ice cream places in the world but The Scoop Shack is one of those special places that I will always seek out when I'm on Block Island. The place to relax and just appreciate the moment and forget everything else. The ice cream here is exceptional but no matter how good the scream is, the views will always be even better.

I tried their blueberry chocolate flavor and was surprised by chomping on hearty pieces of fresh berries and large chocolate chunks. The waffle cones are really pricey, however, and I can't state whether they're worth it or not, since I wasn't willing to shell out $8. Overall, this is a good spot if you (or your kids) are yearning for ice cream on a hot summer day and it won't hurt your wallet as long as you're all willing to share a kiddie sized ice cream =P
