I ordered through DoorDash, and for the $30 I spent, it was definitely just mediocre. The ice cream does have a nice creamy texture, but beyond that, nothing stood out. The cookies used for the ice cream sandwiches were a bit hard. I had four items delivered, and I just finished a $5.50 scoop of strawberry ice cream. While there were some seeds, there were no actual chunks of strawberry, which was quite strange. My daughter also had...

The line may be long at times, but the wait is always worth it. I highly recommend coming here.

The portions are small but their ice cream is very rich and incredibly creamy.

Well, for the $30 I paid for it, it was definitely mediocre at best. The ice cream has a great creamy texture. Outside of that, nothingremarkable. The cookies are a bit hard for ice cream sandwiches. I had 4 items delivered. Just finished my $5.50 scoop ofstrawberry ice cream. While I got seeds, I got no actual bits of strawberry. Very odd. My daughter had vanilla, which I alsotried. Again, just very basic honestly Walmart ice cream would be better. Maybe it's better in person, the doordash menu is verylimited. I may try it in person some day, but as of now, I'll go to coldstone for my ice cream fix. Or Mr. Goodies. Sub partreats at best here. MayLynns is still on my list to try.

Great people! Great location! Great hours! I'm lactose intolerant when it comes to processed diary, personally, but I can eat Rookie's with no problem. I think because they get their milk from Homestead Creamery, a good (andlocal! farm/source. They don't always have vegan/non-diary ice cream, from my experience, although they've made a lot of newchanges, so maybe they do have it consistently now. But either way, their ice cream is delicious and comes from ethical placesand the service is amazing! It's one of my favorite places to go for an occasional special treat with friends or just by myselfafter work to chill and relax and treat myself. Rookie's never fails to deliver the best spot for a spontaneous late nightsummer adventure with friends either, since they are open late (11 or 11:30 I think . During the warm summer months I could notwait until the end of the week when I got paid on Friday and Rookie's was open to go and treat myself. God bless this place!Rookie's has become very dear to my heart with many fond memories having been made here.? (Seen on the pictures is their lemonice cream and sugar cookie
