My family loves Fresh. Their locally made ice cream is fantastic with a lot of great flavors to…read morechoose from. Tonight I went with Carolina Crunch which has their Honey Salted Caramel ice cream mixed with Heath bars and Butterfinger. They use a lot of local ingredients here and this ice cream was made with honey from Mike's Bees in Raleigh. My wife had the banana pudding ice cream and it was excellent as well. You really can't go wrong with any of the flavors here. Very creamy with a silky texture. This is better than the vast majority of places you'll go to for ice cream. Service was very friendly and patient as my family practically sampled every flavor on the menu. Lots of outdoor seating here which was perfect on a comfortable, moderately cool summer night. Fresh is one of the best ice cream places in the Triangle area. Definitely Stevie K Certified Legit!

This is my favorite place to get ice cream in North Carolina! It's so delicious. They are always…read morevery nice and patient. Whenever I have questions about the flavors they always give detailed explanations and don't rush to move onto the next person. My favorite flavor is the banana pudding. I've been to this location more than I can count JUST for the banana pudding ice cream. The other flavors are just as good. The picture attached is the bananas foster and the brookie. So good on a hot day! There's lots of outdoor seating and the bathroom is convenient if needed.

On Feb 14th we were back at our favorite Andias again. This time we ordered a flight and their…read moreValentine's special heart-shaped flight with slightly bigger scoops.. because... why not? We mixed some old favorites with a few new flavors. The dark chocolate raspberry was SO good. Chocolate lovers, you need to try this one! Our forever favorites are still bakhlawa (with those bakhlawa bites ) and rose pistachio - the rose essence is just perfect, not overpowering at all. Tried one new flavor "UBE" for the first time too. I think it was made with coconut milk and I really liked it! Always fun discovering new favorites. Service was amazing and super patient. They happily let you try different flavors before you pick your final perfect cup which I always appreciate because choosing is hard They even changed up their decor for the February LOVE vibe and updated the menu colors. Super cute touch. They do have milkshakes, but I'm not ready for that many calories in one go yet! Maybe one day when my mind (and cravings) say yes lol.

Flavors are fairly different as well which is also a nice change. Inside is pretty small but there is outdoor seating available at this location. We got the mini flight that comes with six mini scoops and two waffle cone chips. Flavor profiles are on point and ice cream is fairly creamy. My only complain is the serving sizes are small for the price you pay. The quality is good but you don't get much in each scoop. The ice cream sandwiches don't keep their form when you take a bite of it as well.

Soon as we walk in, she runs over to the window and gets one of the games so that we can sit down as a family and play some games and enjoy our ice cream, which by the way is superb.

We tend to frequent the same legendary ice cream spots over and over. Sunni Sky's, Goodberry's,…read moreFat Cat, Fresh Local...we kind of just rotate endlessly through those. However, now that we have tried Mama Birds it will definitely be added to our rotation. They have gluten-free waffle cones here which was a bit surprising to be honest. They also label their ice creams as gluten free which is helpful. It is a bit more on the expensive side, a double scoop is $7.50 and a triple is $10 plus $1.50 for the waffle cones ($2.25 for GF). So it's a bit expensive. I always base the cost on a family of 5...it's basically $45 for 5 double scoop cones + tip is another $9 and with taxes you're looking t just under $60 which buys a lot of Ben and Jerry's or 3 trips to Sunni Skies... Some ice cream shops encourage you to try as many as you'd like. I think I tried 5 here and the staff was getting annoyed with me...there wasn't a line either it was just us. I wouldn't try more than 2-3 if there was a line. I feel like a couple here is the standard. The parking lot exit needs some work, if you have a tiny car you might lose it in the potholes! I'm sure that problem belongs to whoever owns the property that rents to the ice cream shop but I'd push for it to be fixed! Decent amount of parking. It's very clean and cool inside. They do have restrooms. Tables are shared seating so you'll be sitting next to strangers (not a problem for me but I know people who want their own table). It is somewhat small. I don't know how busy it can get but if it was slammed you might have to eat in your car so make sure you bring some wet wipes for the kids.

I often see Buoy Bowls over by my work but have always passed them at inconvenient times…read more Thankfully, I was on my way to pick up lunch and saw Buoy Bowls and decided a smoothie would pair well with my lunch order. It's a purple food truck and can't be missed! They were stopped in their usual spot at Lonerider's. There were a few cars there and I knew this was a popular truck. I originally ordered the Ube smoothie for my husband since we don't get Ube out here in Wake Forest and I ordered the Açaí smoothie. Unfortunately, they were out of Ube so I chose the mango instead. The staff were really nice and super quick with making the smoothies. It was really hot out, it would be awesome if they had an umbrella or awning for people to wait under. The drinks were delicious! Albeit, a little pricey, but man these were good! I definitely want to try their açaí bowls next time because the sizes were quite big. The smoothies came in one size. I will be back for sure!!
