I hadnt been since before the renovation and was surprised to see they turned into a coffee shop. They now serve both coffee and ice cream and have plenty of options. I personally enjoyed the dark chocolate mocha. Definitely worth a visit.

Great rolled ice cream. Staff was very nice . It takes longer than most ice cream places but the kids said it was great. In a cool spot downtown right on the riverfront.

If youre looking for a change in ice cream then this is the place for you! Ice cream is very delicious and creamy. Very decent amount of choices to choose from as well. The inside of the shop is sort of small and just a little hole in the wall but there are tables out behind the location that are overlooking the PRATTVILLE creek.Definitely a neat little place in a nice downtown to take a date to.10/10 would recommend this place.

Nice little place across the street from some great restaurants. Awesome area to explore and spend a few hours. Good ice cream on a hot day. Upstairs seating was unique and cool addition to the place.

We love Cotton Gin Creamery! My oldest wanted to try rolled ice cream, so we headed to Cotton Gin after our photo shoot downtown Prattville. I cant remember the exact name of what she got, but it had strawberries and cheesecake. It was so good! The hot chocolate ice crem and the blueberry cheesecake ice cream is great, too. The kids also love posing with the photo props they have there. This was our second visit, and we will definitely be back!

This place is an absolute gem in downtown Prattville. The recent renovations have turned a rather nondescript ice cream parlor into a destination shop where you can slip in for an ice cream treat for the kids or coffee and a pastry with a friend. The decor has been transformed into an antique eclectic with a sumptuous palette of rich color and lots of cozy sofas and inviting nooks for studying, chatting, or just relaxing. It reminds me a bit of a European coffeehouse or British pub. I’ve not sampled the ice cream, but I can attest to the coffee which is delicious. It is brewed at the correct temperature which gives the coffee a smooth finish and keeps it from tasting bitter (a lesson that could be learned at a nearby coffee drive-thru). I highly recommend this coffee/creamery. We are fortunate to have such a treasure in Prattville!

Great flavors, eclectic decor, and friendly service. Enjoyed!

Everything about this spot just works! Friendly, knowledgeable staff, a decor with one foot in the Bayou and the other in the history of Downtown Prattville, and delicious caffeinated concoctions, to boot! I had the Voodoo Latte, on the recommendation of the (I assume) Head Barista. Generally, Im apprehensive about Lavender, as it can be used with too heavy a hand and wind up overpowering everything else in a dish/beverage. But, The Voodoo was a perfect example of how to use Lavender correctly. Faintly floral notes lead into a beverage that never forgets the coffee is still the star of the show. Nicely done!

Unfortunately, the Cotton Gin Creamery closed it doors during the Covid pandemic. This is now a coffee shop that serves ice cream and java.

Absolutely perfect place for snow cones and ice cream. Its a reasonably priced establishment located in the heart of the Old city, on the water.

Very good ice cream on a hot day. Very close to small park overlooking Prattville mill waterfall. Get ice cream and relax at the park.

Scrumptious ice cream and very reasonably priced. I got the of the homemade flavours: Creole praline, peach, and blueberry cheesecake. Loved each, especially that peach! Very creamy which I am a fan of. Very sweet town too, with the creamery nearby a pretty water fountain feature and weir that are pretty to eat your treats by.

First time here. Ice cream was excellent! Dont listen to the low star reviews. Prices are good and they offer a military discount. Owners and staff are very friendly. Will definitely be back.

The ice cream was amazing but it was super super creamy. Maybe if they used a thinner cream it would be just perfect. But overall they have an amazing staff and some amazing choices.

Great place don’t let the stupid other reviews fool you. Owner is amazing and the ice cream is the best.Also check out their beautiful views on the backside of the building. They have chairs and lights right by the riverside and a play ground less than a 5 minute walk away for the kids!

Great local ice cream shop. The ice cream is made & rolled up right in front of you! Lots of flavors to choose from. Friendly staff. Clean facility. A little pricey compared to the other typical ice cream places. Still a great family-friendly place.

This is a nice little ice cream shop located on the bank of a stream running through downtown Prattville. The ice cream is very good and they will blend it with toppings you choose. There is a sitting area in the back overlooking the stream. It is a lovely experience.

Its an excellent ice cream establishment. Three of us were first time customers, and all of us commented on the quality of the ice cream. If anyone is on Main Street, its a must place to stop in and enjoy the product.

We really enjoyed the rolled ice cream from Cotton Gin Creamery, it is much creamier than other rolled ice cream places weve been to. The staff is friendly and they have a great selection of sweet treats.

Review №38

Very friendly staff and owners and the place looks great on the inside. Our wait after we ordered was 20-25 minutes plus the ten extra minutes waiting in line to order! Once we got our order and I got to taste the ice cream it had no flavor to it! It was bland even with Reeses Cups chopped up in it! My son didnt like his cup! He ordered the Chocolate Swirl and for a kid who loves chocolate to say he didnt like it, must mean somethings wrong.

Place was clean and the employees were nice. Prices were reasonable as well. I only have two complaint. One being that once they handed us our ice cream they were no where to be found after that. Second complaint being the ice cream was made with thick heavy cream instead of regular cream. It made the ice cream hard to eat after so many bites. It left an extremely unpleasant film in your mouth.

Nice place overall, the two guys who assisted us didnt talk much...just took the order, made the ice cream, and bought it to the table. The ice cream was very bland - one was vanilla and the other was cotton candy. Even with adding sprinkles, fruity pepples, chocolate, and gummy bears it still didnt have a taste. My kids didnt like it and they are habitual candy eaters!

My mom, my boyfriend, and I went to the Cotton Gin Creamry for the first time and as soon as we walk in we are greeted with a smile! A very nice young woman up front explained the menu perfectly to us. We got our ice cream in less than 5-7 minutes. We will definitely be back to this uplifting establishment.

I WILL NOT BE BACK! VERY POOR QUALITY. THE CASHIER WAS VERY RUDE WHEN I HAD QUESTIONS ABOUT TOPPINGS. ME AND MY SISTER ONLY HAD 3 ROLLS. SO IM NOT SURE WHY THEY WOULD HAVE SUCH A BIG CUP IF THEYRE NOT GOING TO FILL IT UP. NOT SATISFIED WHAT SO EVER! DID I MENTION MY SISTER IS PREGNANT AND YOU HAVE TOTALLY PISSED OFF THE PREGNANT GIRL!!!!
