I've driven by this ice cream shop many times and decided to try it out today. I got one scoop of…read morecookie dough, and one scoop of what she called a chocolate with chocolate peanut butter cup. The cookie dough one was delicious! The other one not so much, I didn't taste any peanut butter cups and the chocolate wasn't very chocolatey at all, I would not order that one again. Also I thought the price was kind of high, over $6 for two small scoops.

This is for the Clayton location. Got to see the owner, say a quick hello, and he is so…read moreappreciative of his customers. Maybe it's the Southern accent for me? I don't know. Today I ordered the black raspberry and birthday cake. Delicious combo! I think there was a piece of waffle cone at the very end which made for a delicious crunch at the end. High 90s out here.. this place (Celtic Creamery either location) is a well deserved treat to the palate!

Can't love this place any more on a hot, July afternoon. Come ready to make tough decisions... they…read morehave about a 100 flavors, plus a huge range of sizes to choose from. It's a little crazy but the young man at the counter was polite and patient, and the line of mostly regulars will what's the "best" (in their opinion, anyway). My personal favorite is sour cherry plus sour orange. The husband says tiger's blood is the best! The dog stuck to his usual "pup cup".

I truly enjoyed my pralines and cream - can't wait to try the other flavors. We also got maple bacon, strawberry, and biscotti. Oh and they have some that have alcohol in them. I did try the apple moonshine - boy was it GOOD!

The Gilded Pear is located in Downtown Smithfield. It is located in the Hood-Spiers Building, which…read morehas been restored. It was built in 1900 and still has the original tin ceiling, decorative windows and exposed brick. Seating is on two floors, providing a cozy feel if sitting in the loft. They have the "Pear Necessities of Life" This is both a cafe for coffee and teas but also a bakery that serves breakfast and lunch. They are known for their bubble waffles, and crepes. But also have a large menu that has sandwiches, salads, flat breads and breakfast items. There should be something that appeals to even the pickiest eater. Ordering is done at the counter, and you receive a number, and the beverage and food are brought to your table. The menu is posted outside the entrance so you can check it out first. I went with a rose and cranberry lemonade that was a drink special, and the bubble waffle, and added strawberries and bananas. The bubble waffle intrigued me as I had never had one before. It is a honeycomb waffle popular in Hong Kong. It is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It looks like bubble wrap, which is hard to tell as mine was covered in strawberries and bananas. I enjoyed the texture and flavors of it. The Gilded Pear is a great addition if you're looking for somewhere to grab a quick bite to eat.

This is the cutest place in Smithfield. Located on the main drag, they had great options for food,…read morebut I opted for an iced coffee on a hot June morning to start my day. The barista was very helpful. I asked her opinion about a couple of different things, I ended up with the coconut drink that was on special for the month. It was amazing. I sipped it as I walked through old historic Smithfield. The space itself you can tell a lot of love and thoughtfulness goes into the store. Everything was very clean, I love that they were cute messages on the cups, little positivity in this day and age really goes a long way. Everything at the Guilded Pear seems to be made with kindness and consideration.

I went with the "Cookies Make Everything Batter" in a cone, and it did not disappoint. The cake batter ice cream had just the right amount of sweetness. The Oreo cookie mix-ins added a perfect crunch to each bite. The waffle cone was fresh, crunchy, and paired perfectly with the ice cream. Our server was super friendly, helpful, and had a great sense of humor, which made the visit even more enjoyable. I only got a small since I had just eaten, but it was the perfect size to satisfy my sweet tooth. I could see how they might run into some delays if it gets busy, as there was only one person working and the group behind us had to wait a bit while she finished helping the three of us. That said, by the time we made our decisions and got in line, it was our turn, so it worked out. The shop was quiet with no background music, which made it feel a bit calm and low-key. A great first experience overall. I'd definitely go back to try other flavors.

The walls are decorated in sports memorabilia and September 11th tributes. When you walk in, you will see the Statue of Liberty. I tried to sit in the Mets section, but that was taken as it is a busy place, so I sat near the Yankees. I was ok with the photo of Don Mattingly and don't hate the Yankees, I just love the Mets. I made sure to spend some time in that section before leaving, seeing the 1986 tributes to Mike Piazza, Jose Reyes, and David Wright. It is just fun to be surrounded by the memorabilia. The sandwiches also follow in the New York theme. I ordered the Mr. Met, it had ham, turkey, and roast beef with lettuce, provolone, and tomatoes. I've had it before, so I knew it was good and ordered the full size rather than a half. I enjoyed every bite of it. The service was friendly, and they have daily specials with a different sub featured each day. The food was prepared fresh and fast. If you are looking for a high-quality sub, this is the place to order from.
