Even when it's raining, Brickley's does not disappoint. This was my first time trying it; it's my…read morefriend's favorite place and she wanted to introduce me to it. There was plenty of street parking close by. There were lots of flavors that caught me eye, but ultimately, I narrowed it down to the three I wanted to sample: Ginger, Brittle Brickley's, and peanut butter cup. I thought the ginger one was unique, but I was more impressed with the other two that it was voted off the island. Since you could only choose one flavor with the kiddie size ($4.99), we upgraded to small ($5.99) which allows for two selections. They don't have indoor seating, just an outside patio with chairs and tables, but since it was raining, it was not an option. Once someone handed us our ice cream at the side of the building, we walked back to our car to eat it. The ice cream is very creamy, not overly sweet, and lives up to the names of its flavors. The brittle brickley was a vanilla base with chunks of toffee or butterscotch. The chunks were light and small so not hard on the teeth at all. The peanut butter cup had a good amount of candy in it. For the quality of the ice cream and serving size, I thought the price was fair.

It is so creamy and flavorful. I had the mint chunk and loved it. At the recommendation of the very sweet and helpful salesgirl my husband tried cherry jubilee with dark chocolates chips. He said it was delicious vanilla ice cream with an insane amount of cherries jubilee and dark chocolate chips. He loved it. We also bought some candy. The dark chocolate covered fruit flavored candy was scrumptious. I also loved their chocolate-covered pretzels. Why anyone would go to any other ice cream store on Main Street is beyond me.

On a 78 degree clear Sunday evening in mid July, the two lines to place orders were long, and the parking lot was full. The quality of the home made ice cream makes Baron's a summer destination. It is amazing how organized and well thought out the ordering system is. There are two lines/windows for orders, and a third line/area for pick up. If you pay with a card, there is a staff member expediting orders while you stand in line. Staff brings your order out. It only took 25 minutes from arriving to indulging.
