If you've tried all 31 flavors of Baskin & Robbins, and all the combinations of marble slab, try this place out!
They don't have as many options as compared to the 2 big chains (and others) but their ice cream is still pretty yummy! I have tried their cookie monster (left my tongue blue lol) and smores on smores (has melted n toasted Marshmellow covering it.
The place small hence there isn't room for a big hangout. Being in the city the intention could be to pick up your ice cream and walk and eat (which IMO is a good thing for a date except in winter).
It is pricey but you get your money's worth as the scoops are big and the cones are not the average ones.
To sum it up: Enjoyable ice cream, good alternative!
