Great concept but deceptively expensive. We really like the concept where they offer ice cream from several different brands (ex. Oberweiss, Baskin Robbins) and free toppings; however, they do not post prices anywhere. We spent $35 on four scoops of ice cream--two of which were kids scoops. The ice cream was good but we won't be returning due to the price.

4 stars for the tasty ice cream and toppings. Took off a star because, like other reviewers have said, it is $7 for a single regular scoop, which is overpriced. I'd go back--If someone else was paying!

Let me start by saying that I usually do not indulge in ice cream. To celebrate our son’s high school graduation, our party of 16 went to Scoop Society. They were extremely busy and I was wondering how they were going to accommodate such a large group. They hit a grand slam! Everyone was kind and friendly, offering a sample to anyone that wanted to try an unfamiliar flavor. They also have a pot of coffee that is free with a purchase of ice cream. If you are a parent, you can relate how a cup of Joe hits the spot after such a huge event. This is were they went above and beyond. I asked for a cup and the young man informed me it was brewing and he would come out and let me know when it’s ready. Not only did he follow through, he also updated me on the progress of the brew! All the adults and kids were extremely satisfied. Thank you Scoop Society! I may indulge a little bit more in ice cream because of you!

Now I get the name Scoop Society. The concept is they have a bunch of ice creams from Baskin Robbins, Kilwins, Haagen Daaz and maybe one other. Positive is you got a ton of flavors without needing to visit each of these places. And the negative - maybe there's no negative 😄. The concept is good but the ice eis expensive. Almost $11 for a "small" scoop. But don't be deceived by small - you actually get two big scoops of overflowing ice cream and a ton of free toppings - varieties of nuts and sprinkles. I was shocked at the size of the small scoop - two people can easily share and there will still be something left. And you get free Starbucks coffee. You will have to decide if the price is worth it for such large scoops for small ice cream and nice-to-have toppings but won't miss them if the price is lower. Ice cream was good though

A bare bones ice cream parlor. I don't mean bare bones in a bad way. They have several brands of ice cream and a whole bunch of different flavors. The service was really good. They also have coffee available that's free.

This place used to be amazing. It used to be a small business that made all their own ice cream for an affordable price. It is now under new management who have absolutely ruined it. The decor is unappealing and makes no sense with the layout of the store, not to mention the security footage being the only thing playing on the TV. The flavors are no longer homemade and are just tubs of Baskin Robbins, Ben and Jerry's, etc. They charged $12 for a medium size Ben and Jerry's half-baked and gave less than you would get in the $5 pint from the store. Absolutely absurd, and I will never be coming back here again. Such a shame to see a perfectly good business ruined.

The ice cream is expensive, but it tastes good. The higher cost is probably a function of the location. The seating area was very clean. There are some toys for toddlers like an activity box and play kitchen. You can order your ice cream in a bubble waffle.
Friendly service and delicious ice cream. Many flavors to choose from. Spumoni and Pistachio are delicious! I’m sure we will be back!
Newly opened ice cream place. Kids friendly with lots of playpen activities. They have good range of flavors. We had the coconut scoop and it was really good not to much sweet. Will definitely come again to try more. Sundaes available too🍦🍨🍧

Small, but cute location. The ice cream was decent. Would maybe go back for some more since not many ice cream options in the area.
