As far as Nitrogen ice cream places go this is one of the best. The ice cream is absolutely smooth and the flavors are fresh and natural. Rarely are they overtly sweet. Dont expect to find room to sit as the place is small; but duck in to indulge your sweet tooth while getting some relief from the heat. Pints of their more popular flavors are always available, and if youre not one for much experimentation, the Nutella is tried and true.
Of course ice cream is good. You can never go wrong with Ice cream right? If you got money to waste go head get ice cream from here, of course it’s good but I left here with a basket have full. Majority of the tray that the cream was placed in was filled with whip cream with a small amount of ice cream. It’s like going to the grocery stores buying those bag of chips which is filled mostly with air. I left this place filled with an extreme amount of void.
Cool little ice cream place where they make your order right there with nitrogen and a mixer like a science project. I had peach ginger which came out very creamy, couldnt taste peach much but I like the hint of ginger. Staff are friendly.
Small area for ordering and eating. The cookie Sunday looks impressive with lots of whipped cream but I was disappointed that the actual amount of ice cream was less than the give away free cup in honor of ice cream Sunday. The taste was just ok! Where we sat needed a wipe down from the previous customers. Wouldnt stop in again.
What a unique and delicious ice cream experience. We really like the seasonal flavors of the ice cream they have too. If you want real good ice cream that is as fresh as it gets, come here. Will not disappoint.
The ice cream tastes amazing, I loved corn and pistachio flavors. However, after eating it in hot weather I got bad sore throat and partially lost my voice for about 2 weeks, maybe because it is nitrogen frozen ... not sure
We absolutely love Nicecream. Its consistently wonderful and has some of the creamiest and tastiest ice cream weve ever had.
I came by this place after reading earlier reviews. I really wanted a Brownie Sunday, but, was disappointed when the guy grabbed my brownie with his bare hand and a dirty looking glove on the other. He didnt even care to wash before he started handling the food. Which what an avg to below avg place will do. The plastic top of the container holding brownies was dirty. There were smudges on everything and the mixing spatula were laying in the some of the ice cream bowls. It was a humid Sunday night during restaurant week, so maybe they were tired, and needed to close early, as it looked like there were doing that. Which why I will come back. I hope to add to more stars on that experience, and enjoy what others are hyping about.✌🏿
Tried the coconut sesame and white chocolate peanut. Both were good
Delicious and a cool experience with super nice people working there and decent prices
They make delicious, unique flavors of ice cream with liquid nitrogen and a smile. Whats not to love??
Ice cream is amazing. Variety (flavors) could be better
Nice, cozy and rarely crowded. Best ice cream on king street.
Real ice cream. Best place to go again n again
Yum! The vanilla and Pina colada was amazing. Fresh vanilla bean in the ice cream was on point! Cute spot
Who doesnt love a pint of tasty ice cream.
This ice cream is absolutely delicious! Made fresh on the spot with liquid nitrogen! Fresh pumpkin. Fresh spice. Both in a milkshake. So nice 🤗
Neat place to take kids, big & small. I read the reviews on the poor service and was a little concerned. They must have taken care of that issue. We were greeted when we came in and the ice cream maker was helpful and friendly. It only takes a few minutes for the ice cream to set. It was fun to watch. The ice cream is pretty good and very creamy. They have limited flavors to have made and more preface to take home. Give it a try. The grapefruit creamsicle was pretty good. Everyone in our group lived their ice cream.
Ice cream was good, when I stuck my spoon in it, it was so thick that both scoops came up in one big clump
Ice cream is ok.. prices are too high.
Hands down the best ice cream in town. Watching the liquid nitrogen steam over the kitchen aid mixer as the ingredients become ice cream before your eyes is certainly an experience but the flavors and the quality of the ice cream make this place top notch. Try the honey lavender as well as the affogato. 😋
I love that they use as fresh of ingredients as possible and its made as soon as you order it! The array of rotating flavors is definitely fun. You never know whats going to be on the menu!
I highly recommend the peanut butter icecream it was FANTASTIC! My sister loves the Sunday. It is truly fresh and home made.
This place was on our list to visit but we never physically made it because it was raining. However, we had it delivered to our hotel and it was exceptionally creamy and good. We had a pint of peanut butter cup and would definitely recommend it!
Alexandria old town is amazing.
Nicecream is definitely worth the trip. All their ice cream is fresh made and chilled with liquid nitrogen when you order. The ingredients taste really fresh and it is entirely worth the price (about $5 for the cup pictured). Honestly, this is some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had. Staff was super friendly and helpful and I would definitely go back again!
The ice cream here is SO good. We tried it for the first time a few days ago, and Ive already been back twice! They have an assortment of flavors that rotate weekly, and they make the ice cream right in front of you with liquid nitrogen. Its fun to watch, and the ice cream that comes out is incredibly fresh and creamy.
Absolutely delicious. Got the regular for $5 and it was more than worth it. Made fresh on the spot with liquid nitrogen which was a lovely experience.
A great place to get fresh great ice cream.they have so many great flavors to many to name them all we always find something new. Great service very clean and friendly workers. I highly recommend this to all you will like it.
We were on our way back to Potomac Falls from National Harbor and the kids wanted ice cream. we werent familiar with the area so I ok googled ice-cream shops and Nicecream popped up and had good reviews. so we went. its a small shop but its amazing! they make everything there right before your eyes with liquid nitrogen and huge blenders. the selection was amazing, the place was packed and the staff was super friendly. we all ordered different things and everything was delicious!
Yummy ice cream!
They are taking orders at the door or online for takeaway. The ice cream was tasty (honey lavender)! Service was pleasant but do anticipate a wait of ten minutes on a busy day.
This is a very unique hole in the wall ice cream shop in Alexandria, VA. My bother told us that it was a must that we go here. He had tried it on a business trip and made the suggestion to go. What is unique about this place is that they use nitrogen to make their ice cream and its done right in front of you! While making the ice cream the nitrogen smoke strats pouring out! Very cool experience especially for kids, they will love it! Not only is the experience neat but their ice cream was like no other that Ive tried. Im a hugh Cold Stone fan but this over ranks my love for CS. If you get a chance try this place, do it! The only down side to this place is its a little small so if its busy you may have to eat outside.
Had 2 flavors, they were good! Not the best Ive had but it was a good experience.
Best ice cream ever ☺️
The coolest (pun intended) ice cream experience I have ever had. Watching the liquid nitrogen smoke out of the mixer is pretty neat. Its worth a visit just for the experience alone. The ice cream is somehow light but also dense. Like its very creamy but a small size is more than enough -- its like there is not air in the ice cream so there is actually more than there appears to be. Anyway, the ice cream is great and come for the science.
Always a nice treat. Glad to see they expanded to Old Town. Love that they have great flavors and it’s not super sweet.
Simply delicious!
Why is the ice cream here so good. Actually everything here is really good. My favorites are the coconut ash, the sweet corn and and the peachy keen. The prices are pretty inexpensive too compared to other places Ive been. the concept is really cool too
This place is so good!!!My sister in law and her husband introduced us to this place, and now its a staple every time we visit. The flavors change and are all equally delicious! Its also just a lot of fun to watch them make the ice cream. Their coffee and brownies are also really great!
Their ice cream has an interesting texture. Unlike the other ice creams that are silky and creamy, their ice cream has a very rough and even sandy feeling to it. I know that this is a strange description to be given to an ice cream, but I think this is why their ice cream is unique.
Very tasty flavors, rotating flavors frequently. Great visual as they pour the Liquid Nitrogen into the mixer. A little pricey for the 2scoops in a small cup.
Love it.
Not your regular old flavors, but tastes good. Average quality of ice cream, probably not anything I would really crave/want to go to over other ice cream shops in the area but nice for different flavor.
The dark chocolate is AMAZING! Very thick and rich... Almost like eating an actual bar of chocolate. The Honey lavender was great as well, floral and sweet tasting. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting, or local!
A unique, new twist for making ice cream. The flavors vary daily, but it is certainly delicious. Its really nice to see an ice cream shop take hold away from all of the shops at the lower end of King St.
Great little hole in the wall. Some space for sitting down and enjoying your ice cream that can be made on the fly.Their flavors are unique and rich. Expect to spend $10+ on you and your dates ice cream. I would go again if I was in the area.
A very small and cozy ice cream shop! The staff were friendly and allows you to try a flavor before you buy it. The various flavors are delicious and its really cool that they use liquid nitrogen to make the ice cream right in front of you. You wont be disappointed!
Yummy! The Apple caramel ice cream actually tastes like apple and caramel.l not a chemical synthesis. Portions are small, thank god. Try it, you’ll love it.
Cute place but the ice cream disappointed, unfortunately. I got the nutty praline and the nuts were old and its all I could taste. I was on the go with people waiting in the car so I couldnt return for my money back.
The staffs are very friendly and helpful. The taste of the ice creams are wonderful.
The ice cream is so good! They only have like five options per day, but they are all good. Staff is very friendly!
Affogato is life-changing!
Great ice cream. Cool process. Staff was a little bit overwhelmed. Owner should get them some more help on the weekends.
Some of the creamiest ice cream ever! They make it in front of you with fresh ingredients and then they flash freeze it with liquid nitrogen. So cool!
They are the best, as I understand ice cream 🍦
I wish I could live here! Hand crafted frozen custard to die for! Get the insulated bag. (It cost $10 as of this post) and you get a $1 off pints every time you bring it in. If your local and you go 10 times. Its like its free! I would totally fo that!
Unusual place. Smoothest vanilla ice cream Ive ever had. I would recommend making the stop. My son and I shared the over the rainbow. (Ice cream, brownie, whip cream, m&m, sprinkles and cherry.
Wow! Really, really amazing ice cream. I had no idea! In addition to the fact that the flavor and texture are perfect, its fun to come in and watch the ice cream being made. Highly recommend Nutella! They put multiple straight up scoops of Nutella right in! We have been converted to Nicecream fans!
One of my favorite places! Nutella flavor is a must! The spiced vanilla is also amazing.
This place serves ice cream made in small batches! Uniquely creamy and wonderful!
Awesome. I loved the pistachio. As soon as I tried it I had to have some. Omg. Some of the best ice cream I have ever tasted. !
Love love love this ice cream ‼️😄😄😄Ive cream made with liquid nitrogen? Yes please!!So many creative and tasty flavors on a daily rotation short list, you know their ingredients are always fresh. The employees are always nice; the owners clearly put a lot of love and work into it.
Absolutely best (and coolest) ice cream I’ve ever had. So sad I don’t live nearby or else I’d go there weekly! My favorite is pistachio. Amazing in taste and experience!
I’m glad to see these guys in Old Town Alexandria. Smaller location, but I usually get mines and walk. This is delicious churned-to-order ice cream using fresh ingredients and liquid nitrogen. Depending on when you go, it is well worth the 3-7 min wait. The rotating menu always has some appealing flavors on it; just check the website. Cheers!
We are frequent visitors here. The location is convenient and the ice cream is excellent. Its hard to find such good ice cream (and not frozen custard) because its hard to make pure ice cream without crystals, unless of course you use liquid nitrogen, which they do. The flavors are always changing and weve always liked what we tried. Id recommend a trip or two. Or three. Just get their frequent visitor card already.
I was a scoffer, but it turned out to be the creamiest ice cream I’ve ever had. The lime in the coconut had fresh lime zest and just the right level of sweetness. Now I want more!
Great rotation of original flavors
Nitro ice cream made with all fresh ingredients. You go from cream to ice cream in minutes. The only thing better than the show is the taste. Yummy!
Incredible! The ice cream was amazing! Tasted very fresh and was cool to watch them make. The flavors were great. I cant say enough good things about this place!
I first went to Nicecream the week it opened. Have been back several times, and have never been disappointed. The nitrogen ice cream-making process is really cool (no pun intended) to watch. The line can get quite long in the summer and the store is a bit small, but it is worth it. Yum!
It was just okay,
