| - Summer's Ice Cream is a staple among dessert stops in the downtown core. Tucked away on Yorkville Ave. west of Bay St., you might not even notice it if you blink. They're located in the lower level of a building, making them one of the city's better kept secrets. Not so secret, I suppose, as they've got a collection of photos on the wall from celebrity visitors.
It's an elegantly designed space with adequate space for those queuing in line. The displays and decor all work well together. I must've come on the day where the lone staff member had an uneventful day, as he didn't seem enthused to be selling ice cream. However, I've been here in the past and received friendly service, so I won't hold it against them.
As far as the ice cream goes, it's very good. From a flavour and texture perspective, I'd say it's some of the best I've had in a while. Waffle cones are a must for me every time I visit. Price is also a huge plus here, with a single scoop and waffle cone costing just $4.95, taxes included. At that price, you really can't complain too much.
