Reviews summary

Nestled in the charming heart of Mystic Falls, this nostalgic ice cream parlor offers a delightful escape for both families and fans of “The Vampire Diaries.” Renowned for its indulgent flavors and a myriad of candy options, guests rave about the delicious banana pudding milkshake and creamy ice cream. While many appreciate the friendly sampling experience and reasonable prices, there are concerns about inconsistent service and limited seating. Repetitive flavor offerings and occasional staff miscommunication have been noted, but the overall experience remains enticing, making it a must-visit destination for sweet treats and a taste of local charm.

What Teaonca White dislikes about Scoops:

I had a disappointing experience at Scoops when a blonde woman at the ice cream counter overlooked my husband and me to serve a white man behind us, despite us being next in line. Thankfully, a kind gentleman stepped in to assist us and apologized, but this incident left a negative impression. Seeing other reviews highlight similar experiences suggests this may be a recurring problem at this location. View all feedback.

Always good and they get through the line fast even when it’s really long. Key lime pie is the best, wish it was year round. Price per person: $1–10

So delicious! What a fun place and great atmosphere. I couldn't believe all the different ice cream flavors, never mind the candy and toys all over the store. For sure, some of the best ice cream I've had tasted homemade.

This is the coolest ice cream and candy shop. Their ice cream is soooo good. We love to get our ice cream and sit out front in the bright yellow rocking chairs.

The ice cream at this restaurant is fantastic! They have an impressive selection of flavors and cone choices. I got a cone with two scoops, but it was so large that I had to switch to a bowl and spoon. I highly recommend visiting if you're in Covington! Plus, the prices are very reasonable.

Walking into this place gives me an instant feeling of joy and excitement… just as they say “like a kid in a candy store.” Each time I go in I notice something new it’s an adventure! The ice cream is delicious and the staff is friendly and social. It’s become a regular treat for my kids (and myself). Sometimes the line is very long but don’t let that discourage you from going! They have plenty of Scoops team members that get the line moving super quick!

I'll always love coming here. The ice cream, the candy, the chocolate covered treats and the kindness from the staff always make it worth the visit! If you haven't been or are just passing through take some time to stop by the gem and I promise you will not be disappointed!

I really like this restaurant mainly because my daughter loves it. It is a bit expensive, but the decor is impressive. However, I was disappointed to find that the chocolates, truffles, and other items are not made fresh on-site and tasted stale.

This restaurant has so much more to offer than just ice cream! I highly recommend bringing your kids here for a delightful experience with toys, candy, and, of course, delicious ice cream. The staff is extremely attentive and efficient; even with a line, we managed to place our orders in under three minutes.

Was at the store on Valentine’s Day bunch of helpful young employees. Although I found it very unprofessional and unpleasant that the owner yelled at the poor young girl in front of a full store. I think that you should treat your young girls better they are our future

I had the Creamsicle Dole Whip soft serve cones, and they struck the perfect balance between ice cream and cone—so refreshing! I also picked up a Rocky Road Cluster and a Toffee Bar.

We loved walking in and seeing all the old candy that you don't see at your regular gas station, grocery store etc. 100s of different candies to choose from. The salt water taffy was soft and flavorful Cinnamon and Peppermint were my favorite! The Ice cream selection was fantastic and they were friendly and willing to let you sample however many flavors you wanted. Very reasonably priced. They had a chocolate counter I hope to try our next time! Will definitely stop here again when we are in the area.

I went to the draw at 7 o'clock. the line was almost wound to the front door in the entire business. it's a narrow space, full of sugary kink.

The ice cream here is fantastic! My only issue is that after visiting a few times, it starts to feel a bit repetitive. They don’t change the flavors often enough to keep things exciting for the locals. The truffles are delightful, but they are quite pricey.
