Wide variety of ice cream delights and vintage candies! They also have milkshakes, sundaes, and ice cream cakes! All of their ice creams are from Foothills Creamery, which is creamy and flavourful.

This place is absolutely lovely. I’ve been coming to this ice cream shop since I was a kid, and it just keeps getting better. The friendly staff always make my day, and there’s such a great variety of flavours, way more than most places! Plus, the scoops are big, which is always a bonus. If anyone’s looking for a good ice cream spot, I’d 100% recommend this one.

Simple and awesome experience. I asked him to get me his favorite and moose tracks was delicious. So many flavors to choose from, including lactose free and dairy free options. Great service and positive energy!

Cool old school Ice Cream shop with a lot of options of flavours of Ice Cream. A little pricy for one scoop of Ice Cream and the one chair I picked to sit on was like a rocking horse might want to fix or replace that chair. Cool for a visit.

This ice cream shop is an absolute gem! They offer tons of flavors, from classic favorites to unique, creative options that you won’t find anywhere else. Every scoop is rich, creamy, and full of flavor, making it hard to pick just one! The customer service is fantastic—the staff is friendly, patient, and always happy to offer recommendations. Whether you’re a chocolate lover, a coffee lover, a fruit fanatic, or someone who enjoys adventurous flavors, there’s something for everyone. Highly recommend stopping by for a delicious treat!
