Friendly. Adorable. Quaint.
These are just some of the words one can use to describe this ice cream shop in the Woodbine/Danforth neighbourhood.
This candy-stripe clad establishment is such a welcoming slice of summer to the area. There's a quiet sitting area for families off the Danforth with kid-size seats and adult-sized benches. The interior feels like a not-so-cheesy candy shop at the fair (complete with pink elephant popcorn). Adorn one wall is artwork from kids depicting their love for ice cream. Dare I say, it's adorable!
And though the flavours aren't anything innovative, it's still a great place to stop by for a late(ish) night ice cream run. The French vanilla in milkshake form is more delightful than words can say.
Oh and as a word to the wise - go in knowing that one scoop actually means two scoops. Yesterday I overheard a customer gleefully complain how big the single scoop was. The shopgirl rationalized it by simply saying "I couldn't get a wide scoop so I made it tall."
Works for me!
