| - The birthday cake ice cream and cookie butter ice cream are undoubtedly delicious! So creamy, perfectly sweet, and the made-to-order nitrogen-freezing process seems to really make a difference in the consistency. It seems to be thicker and to not melt as fast as other ice creams.
The bummer is that, as many others have said, it's just so darn expensive. I'm used to pricey ice cream shops (Melt, Churn, Sweet Republic, Fatty Daddy's, Baked Bear, etc, etc), but this place really seems excessive. $1 extra to substitute a different ice cream base, $1 per topping, and on and on, after already paying $4.50 for a single scoop or $8.50 for a double. My husband and I came here last night and spent $18 for the two of us (and I only had a single scoop, regular milk base, with no toppings). Unfortunately, as delicious and fun as the ice cream is, it's hard to feel good about dropping that much money on a two-person ice cream run.
Their rewards program helps out a bit, as I'm 2 points away from a free single scoop. And the rewards program will also give you a free ice cream on your birthday, so that's a really nice treat.
If you can afford a trip here, I recommend it. But I know the high base price and all the crazy upcharges will prevent me from being a frequent visitor here.
