Impossibly good ice cream and gelato. The two young women on duty at the time we were there were doing a great job, often facing long lines of 10-20 people. They kept up a smooth, constant pace, serving everyone quickly withoutlosing any of the personal touch.

Everything is made in house and INCREDIBLE tasting. Waffle cones were heavenly, ice cream was freakingdelicious, and the pug theme was amazing. All around a life changing experience that makes it hard to eat at any other ice creamshop. 10/10 would live here and eat ice cream for the rest of my life if I could.

Met a couple visiting Bar Harbor who said they read about this place and went and were not disappointed. Also my waiter at a local restaurant told me it?s his favorite spot in thearea. Decided to try it with the fam and wow. I went with the Rum Raisin and it was delicious. Probably not a wrong choice togo with. ????????

I was pleasantly surprised to find a few choices available, and we ultimately selected the blood orange gelato sorbet and coconut ice cream. Both flavors were absolutely delicious. Although we didn't try the almond coconut vegan ice cream, it sounded enticing. The restaurant is conveniently located just a block away from a charming waterfront park, perfect for enjoying your ice cream outdoors. Just keep in mind that the vegan options may not be immediately apparent and may be stored in a cooler towards the back, so don't hesitate to inquire about them.

The service was friendly and excellent, but since the vegan flavor options are limited, you might be out of luck if they run out. I recommend calling ahead or arriving early!

I was pleased to find a few choices available and decided to try the blood orange Gelato Sorbet and the coconut ice. Both flavors were absolutely delicious. Although we didn't try the almond coconut vegan ice cream that was also on offer, it sounded tempting. Just a block down the hill, there is a charming small water park where you can enjoy your ice cream outdoors. Keep in mind that the vegan options may not be prominently displayed, so be sure to ask the staff about them.

It's definitely worth a visit, especially as you head towards the beautiful sights off the beaten path, such as Nervous Nellie's Jams and Jellies, Deer Isle, Stonington, Castine, and beyond. Enjoy!

While we didn’t taste the mandel kokos vegan ice cream, I’ve heard great things about it. Just a block downhill, there’s a lovely small water park where you can enjoy your ice cream outside. The vegan options might not be clearly visible, so don’t hesitate to ask for them.
