They have plenty of flavors and generous serving sizes. I'm a fan of moose tracks, caramel, and brownie/fudge flavors. I've never had a bad cup of ice cream here. It's a little more expensive, but not surprising for its location and probably seasonal operation. Service is good and quick, especially when they get busy. @azfitfoodfun

Lady Bug was cute, and so were all the others, but boring. Even having strawberries in the ice cream with the chocolate would've made a texture and flavor difference. Also the butter crunch did not have anywhere near enough butter crunches :( Staff was wonderful, and the option of all sorts of different nuts as sundae toppings was important to me as a long time ice cream employee - everybody has their favorite toppings and there's so few places you can specialize!

I've been a connoisseur of ice cream for the last 70 years. And sampled my way across the U.S. many…read moretimes. There are only a few things I look for in a good ice cream. One is flavor that shines through the cold and creamy dessert. Second is how sweet it is. Not too much so to where that's all that comes through. The last being, creamy consistency. So all in all, it's fairly simple. With this being said. Fielder's choice has been #1 for me, followed by Dairy corner in the # 2 slot. The only reason why, is that in my opinion, it's a bid too sweet for me. Otherwise it's pretty damn good over all. Today I happened to be driving by The Maine Scoop and decided to give it a shot. It's always nice to ad options when you are out and about. My wife went to the window to order for us. I wanted a coffee Oreo milkshake. She was going for the vanilla custard soft serve. A single cones worth. As soon as I had my treat in my hands. I gave a big long pull on the fat straw sticking out of the top. The first thing I noticed was a watery slurry followed by chunks of soggy Oreo. Then an extremely overpowering sickening sweet gush that took over all my senses that made my eyes snap shut in horror. My brain whirled in a panic trying to understand what just invaded my mouth. My God! I thought I was experiencing some sort of sugar coma onset. I quickly placed the cup in my holder and sat there bewildered for a few minutes. Until the wife looked at me asking, are you OK? I didn't want to sway her opinion so I just smiled and handed her the cup of disaster and said, give this a try. She enthusiastically took the cup and managed to get about a half of swig before she choked and shoved the cup away from her. Holding it at arms length she proclaimed, what in the world did they make you! We laughed for a moment until I realized I just paid $9 for this sugar slurry mess. I asked the wife to try her cone, I wanted or should say hoped that somehow my shake was some sort of mistake. It wasn't, sad to say. Her ice cream was also extremely sweet, but manageable. So, be warned, if you are anywhere near a possible diabetic. Avoid this place like a modern plague.

At some point, we stopped in Saco to check out a free roadside library when I noticed The Saco Scoop right next door and figured, why not get a little bit of ice cream for the drive? This small shop is located inside a little market style building and the store itself is full of random candy and souvenirs as well as the ice cream I came seeking. Like every single other time I see blue ice cream that has a name like "cookie monster" or "oreo cookie something blah blah" I ordered it and The Saco Scoop did it better then most. The woman who worked here was charming and quick to give us our scoops and get us on our way, and man, this might be the best ice cream I've ever had in the state of Maine (I haven't actually had much, but this stuff was incredible). It was so creamy, it was so flavourful, and it was so freaking good I wish I was able to stop by right now and get a few more scoops. Overall, The Saco Scoop is a truly wonderful little ice cream shop that I'm so glad I stumbled across. I very much look forward to checking Saco out on my next trip and this little ice cream shop might just be the reason we even spend the night.

The dark chocolate is AMAZING, was not too bitter at all and was quite literally addicting, I got it every day I was here. They have a bunch of interesting flavors that you WILL NOT see anywhere else, such as maple fig jalapeño or banana with hot Cheetos. Granted I did not try any of these "interesting flavors," but I am very glad it is not all they have. For the little space there is inside, the lines flow easily and you get your ice cream very quickly. The servers know what is in every flavor, and do not mind giving out samples! My one gripe is that they don't tell you they have more flavors in the back freezer, there is no sign or anything advertising it, but luckily I found great, "normal" flavors in the front case."
