This is not the Ice cream shop I take my kids too. This shop offers a variety of complex flavors like honey lavender, basil and creme brulee. The cone is cinnamon flavored and definitely a little too fragile for little hands. Its sophisticated dessert that is perfect for when you want to treat yourself.Also the service was great! There were so many cool flavors that it is difficult to decide. The lady that helped me was very patient with me while I tasted and eventually landed on the two pictured below. Strawberry on the left and honey lavender in the right.Oh they also had a bunch of GF stuff. I dont have an intolerance but if you do they got you covered!
Probably the best ice cream I had while I visited RVA, so that means a lot since I am a sweet tooth! Their flavors were well made, and a lot of them surprisingly gluten free! Customer service was awesome, and the prices were very reasonable. The ice cream tasted well made, and homemade! All the flavors I tried were splendid.
This is the best ice cream in Richmond IMO. Gelati is a close second but Scoop wins on flavors and taste. They even have an ice cream flight with three mini scoops so you dont have to choose just one.
Dark chocolate, yum ...vegan? Well what the heck...love dark chocolate!Very nice girls working here, reasonable pricing.
My partner and I LOVE Scoop so much. It is the perfect place to wander over to on the shady and rather dreamy Strawberry street, especially on a warm summer night. The flavor options are interesting and generally change every so often. The employees have always been very sweet and welcoming despite the constraints that covid has put on the business. Well, I could ramble forever. Please give Scoop a try, they are quite a lovely ice cream shop. :)
Very good ice cream!! Ranks right with Bev’s & Pearls. We ate it without thinking of taking a picture for the review but we’ll be back soon.
I love Scoop! Scoop has friendly staff and delicious ice cream. I appreciate the gluten free and vegan options. They offer MTO ice cream sandwiches on a variety of backed goods, including GF macarons! There are benches outside and Scoop stays open late! My favorite is getting a mini macaron on top of a scoop of V/GF coconut. Yum!
Our favorite ice cream in Richmond! So many good flavors and we always get the Ice Cream Flight, which allows us to get multiple flavors without over indulging ourselves.
Delicious ice cream and coffee! Unique flavors! Awesome service and lovely location.
Omg amazing flavors! I got the trio of mini scoops. All were amazing.
Best locally owned ice cream shop in Richmond. Amazing flavors of ice cream. The staff is very friendly. I try to go as often as I can.
Best ice cream in Richmond! Flavors are always unique and never disappoint. For sure on the more expensive side for ice cream, but if you care about your taste buds, you’ll stop here.
So many flavors! Something to fit every fancy at a good price. Current Covid rules only allow one group at a time so there may be a wait, however there is plenty of seating and parking nearby.
A lovely neighborhood ice cream spot. I recommend the Brown Sugar Cookie Dough. Do yourself a favor, and grab a cone (or cup!), and walk over to Scuffletown Park to enjoy.
I’ve never written a review in my life! But This was the rudest customer service I ever received. This was my first time here and they kept rushing me in the most weird way, vs asking if I had questions or the types of sizes, etc. Every single interaction was very rude. And I wasn’t in there for even 5 minutes. The ice cream though was good!
This place has some of the best customer service ever..oh yeah the ice cream is Great too.
Thank you for being so delish! The tahini ice cream in a shake is some of the best ice cream Ive ever had! Always very nice staff too, to say the least.
Kinda expensive and doesnt smell too good insideThought they sold spoons aswell just ice cream... Shame :/ but the ice cream was pretty good
In full transparency I LOVE ice cream so almost any ice cream will get at least 4 stars, but Scoop is awesome. Their waffle cones are cinnamon-y and delicious. Plus the ice cream flavors are very unique! I got the brown sugar cookie dough and tried a bite of the rhubarb crisp (so fruity and delicious). I also asked to try the croissant and jam one which was really interesting.
Ice cream here is top shelf !
Delicious ice cream with a lot of flavors to choose
A must-visit shop whenever I have friends in town. The Key Lime ice cream is my absolute favorite but all of the varieties are great
Delicious and unique flavors! the cutest little spot underneath a neon ice cream cone.
They have some of the best flavors in RVA. You NEED to try the vegan dark chocolate sorbet!
Always good ice cream
Had the Coffee ice cream, it was pretty good!
Some of the best ice cream Ive had anywhere!
Great ice cream! I used to live a few doors down and I had to promise myself to only go with others or I would go every night! Try the seasonal Basil ice cream! Its fantastic!
Friendly service and some unusual and delicious flavors, like Rhubarb Crisp and Earl Grey. I always appreciate having sorbet options that arent just fruit flavored, and Scoops dark chocolate sorbet fits that bill.
Just some damn good ice cream.
Fabulous. Fun flavors. Order the canolli ice cream.
I ordered a pint of Triple Chocolate, a pint of Cteme Brulee and a pint of Blood Orange Creamcicle. They were all outstanding examples of fine ice cream, the Blood Orange Creamcicle was out of this world!! Best ice cream I have had in a long time.
We got the Mini Flight Icecream, your choice of 3 very small scoops of ice cream. From what I remember getting; The left plate has Berry Sorbet, Coffee, & Blood Orange, and the right Red Velvet, Oatmeal coconut Pie, & Strawberry.
I ordered through Doordash looking for something sweet, and Scoop showed up.Pricing:At first I thought the prices were a bit of a reach, being that Ben & Jerrys is typically $7 per pint, and a pint from Scoop is $10, but as we all grow up learning dont judge a book by its cover, I thought I should give it a go before I made up my mind on it.Ice Cream:I ordered a pint of Roasted Strawberry and a pint of Blood Orange Creamsicle. Both flavors are ridiculously smooth, sweet, and creamy, but (and thank God) not overbearing.Overall:Ive had many different types and brands of ice cream, but this ice cream by Scoop is by far the best Ive ever had. There is so much flavor, its impossible not to slowly savor every moment of it. The Roasted Strawberry flavor reminds me of memories of hanging out with my friends and family at the lake in the summer, and the Blood Orange Creamsicle reminds me of simpler times when being a kid didnt come with the responsibilities of an adult. All in all, this ice cream can make memories, and remind you of memories long past when you were a kid.If I could give 10 stars, I would. Hands down the best ice cream ever. Kudos to you Scoop!Oh, and for those concerned, Scoop blows Ben & Jerrys out of the water be a mile!
ETA: I changed my review from 5 stars to 4 stars, because quite frankly, the employees’ attitudes leave something to be desired. I don’t need you to be my best friend but the transparent annoyance when asking for samples (when the place is empty) and just general curtness leaves a bad taste in my mouth. A bummer when the ice cream is so good.So we’ve been 4 times now since they opened.Very cute establishment with some fun flavors of ice cream. The texture of the ice cream itself is thick and creamy, which lends itself well to the other bakery items from Whisk they include.I have tried the Tahini and Halva (this one is special), Rhubarb Crisp (solid but I wanted more rhubarb), Croissants and Jam (love how tart the jam is), Lemon Swirl frozen yogurt (yay lemon!), Brown Sugar Cookie Dough (solid), Roasted Strawberry (perfect balance of flavor), and Salty Peanut Butter (which struck all my tastebuds in just the right way the other night). Candy Bar and Confetti are a bit too sweet for my personal tastes.The profiterole sundae is beautiful and decadent. The flight includes 3 mini scoops with 3 cookie wedges and I have to say the peanut butter cookie’s taste and texture made it one of the best cookies I’ve ever had. Oh and the mini macaron is both adorable and not boring flavor-wise! It was nice and crispy and yummy!Very small space and pretty crowded at times, so be prepared to wait upwards of 20 minutes due to sheer volume of customers. The line was out the door last time we went!
Love the vegan ice cream
Delicious ice cream and very friendly staff. Also cool that they’re only allowing a few people in the store right now for COVID-safety. No pictures because we ate it all too quickly. 👏🏻👌🏻
My favorite ice cream place in Richmond. Must try coconut, goat cheese & fig, key lime, the vegan chocolate sorbet, and plenty of others Im not thinking of right now.EDIT: Yes I have the pumpkin spice cookie sitting in my freezer right now!
I recently visited Scoop with my parents. The service was excellent and the sales associate was highly knowledgeable about the products available. This ice cream was so fresh and tasty. Additionally, the interior of the store was trendy and unique.
The two people working last night were so pleasant and appreciative. Practicing safe distancing. Ill definitely be back
Wonderful ice cream shop!
They should add a sixth star for this place. Some awesome ecclectic, but delicious, flavors! Do NOT miss an opportunity for a sampling here. The salted peanut butter was FANTASTIC!! I have had a dozen different salted caramel ice cream versions, but this makes me regret I wasted all those calories on caramel and not finding PB 😁. The sweet basil was super good.The waffle cones were fresh and tastey. Creamy and rich cream. Generous scoops. A must visit.
Great flavors. Try the creme brulee or the golden milk gingerbread!
I love this place! The service is amazing and the flavors are always on point! If you get a chance to go please do, it will be worth it.
Cute little shop on a quiet small business block in the Fan. Original and fun flavors, LOVE the honeycomb and lemon meringue. Open for pick up and take out, social distance friendly. Recommend for a fun sweet treat!
Ice cream is amazing and the texture is perfect.Great service by the staff.
Good ice cream and nice friendly employees!!
I should tell you that this isnt necessarily better than the other best ice cream in town (rhymes with Shmalati Balesti) because it is different, and who has the best ice cream will depend on your own personal taste. Scoop serves Philadelphia style ice cream that has a lower egg yolk content compared to the gelato-like ice cream of the other guys. Think Breyers vs. Haagen-Dazs. But so, so much better than Breyers.That being said. I went to Scoop on the day they officially opened and had what is now my favorite ice cream of all time. Mint cookies and cream. Perfect mint ice cream with chunks of Oreo cookies instead of crappy waxy chocolate squares that you normally find in mint ice cream. Good Lord. My life will be forever changed. Just like its sibling establishment, Whisk, the stuff is great, space is clean, service is quick. Get a scoop in a waffle cone and wont regret it.
Honestly, I saw all the reviews raving about it and I figured we would give it a try, it was already really pricey but we are ice cream lovers so we’re happy to pay it to try a new spot. I was absolutely not a fan, I just wound up throwing my pint out. The flavors tasted, for lack of a better word, off? None of our flavors tasted like what you’d want/expect. The honeycomb tasted like burnt caramel and my cookie dough pint just tasted odd. It would have been better to save the $20 and go to Gelati Celesti or even just to the grocery store.
Inventive, high quality ice cream and vegan offerings. Friendly people serving you. All in all a pleasant experience.
I love Scoop! There’s always an interesting flavor to try but also some old standbys as well. Brown sugar cookie dough always hits the spot and roasted strawberry in the summer is the best strawberry ice cream I’ve ever had.Also if you’re lucky enough to be there when they have the fig and goat cheese- IT’S SO GOOD! Honestly too many flavors to fawn over. But last one- the s’mores last Fall was super delicious.
Best creme brulee ice cream Ive ever had. I closed my eyes when I ate it because it was so freaking good. 5 stars.
Great ice cream
Great flavor options, and make your own ice cream sandwiches with cookies is very cool!
Loved my choice... Peanut Butter Cup. Good service. Will be back.
Yummyness galore
Its so cute, from the pink door to the gold chairs and the very instagrammable lets spoon neon sign. Love the ice cream flavors and sizes to choose from! The macs are adorable and a perfect addition to ice cream.They lost a star for charging $1 for a mac by itself and .90 on an ice cream... $30 worth of ice cream and you cant charge .90 for the mac? Silly ten cents.
Really good precautions in place surrounding covid-19 thiourea flavors its unbelievable I had the basil and I didnt expect it to be half as good as it was
Unique flavors and great service keeps me coming back to Scoop! They have a good range that never gets too crazy, my favorite flavor has been the golden milk (tumeric and ginger base).You can get a cup, cone, or pint - they can also scoop a pint of whatever flavor you want for a dollar extra!
Ice cream was great. However, I asked about ingredients because I do have allergies, and no one knew anything about ingredients. Otherwise, it was a good experience.
This is the third time we have been here with our grandchildren. They love the confetti icecream with sprinkles! The other selections are great. It is all made fresh. The employee are great. It is not on our usual path, but well worth the trip. WE WILL BE BACK!
Delicious ice cream! Sometimes the wait can be long, especially on weekend nights, but the service is always friendly, whether you want to try a few flavors or know exactly what you want. Ice cream itself is very good quality, great variety of flavors to choose from and try out. Definitely worth checking out this new fan neighborhood gem!
Friendly staff, their roasted strawberry ice cream was delicious and a much needed refreshment from how hot the day was. Various options are offered, they havent had their grand opening yet so will come back when they are fully running. Will return!
Me the wife love this place,you can sit inside but theres only about 6 chairs but its 2 benches right outside the store.. They have ice cream cookies and brownies, its even a nice area to walk and talk while you eat.
Scoops has a variety of flavors to choose from! Ive sampled quite a few of them and they are all delicious. The building is conveniently located near carytown as well as borders the nearby university, VCU. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend the croissant ice cream sandwich.
Visited near twelve, it was not full. The service here is above par.
Cute new neighborhood shop with really interesting ice cream flavors! There were too many that I wanted to try so I got a sampler. Definitely get the basil flavor if they have it.
Full disclosure, I do prefer gelato as a general rule but I was truly excited to try this new to me ice cream shop. Obviously, my tastes are specific to me, but I wasnt impressed. The service was good and the location was clean. The ice cream itself has a good texture. The flavors are what I found lacking. We tried the 3 flavor sampler with 2 vegan ice creams. I dont normally eat vegan ice cream and based on those flavors, I wouldnt repeat it. The croissant and jam was good initially but the texture of the croissant was gummy as I chewed so that wasnt pleasant. I ended up getting 3 pints to try, salty peanut butter, mint cookies and cream, and chocolate. Im sad to say, I wont be returning. Someone else may really enjoy it and their styling and IG are adorable. Just not up my alley.
Only a few vegan options but theyre very yummy
Do not sleep on the vegan ice creams -- they are amazing! The vegan dark chocolate sorbet is life changing!
I love this place! The general aesthetic, the people who work here... and of course, the ice cream. Highly recommend the crème brûlée ice cream on the macaroon!
Brown sugar cookie dough is the best
This place far exceeded my expectations! I have a major sweet tooth I love all ice cream but the s’mores flavor was beyond amazing! Keep up the good work!!
