Always Ice Cream Company West Annapolis — Restaurant in Annapolis

We were impressed with reviews and went out of our way to try it. We wanted to like it but the ice cream was disappointing. It was creamy and definitely better than chains, but the options didn't offer the depth of flavor individualized by their names. Flavors were indistinguishable. The cookies were in only little blobs in the vanilla-not spread throughout, leaving each bite lacking in the cookies 'n cream. We had 6 flavors amongst our group.

Although no sign suggested they offered kid-size, a patron after us ordered it. We would have gladly had less, had we known. The sign suggested vegan and non-dairy, but these options weren't readily acknowledged in their list of flavors signage.

I suggest you check out Baskin Robbins, they know how to handle high demand, you might learn something from them, perhaps some respect for the customer,...

Another recent, but much needed addition to West Annapolis. The staff is bubbly and ready to spoon out some samples, and they also give some honest feedback and recommendations on flavors that are currently on the list.

The seating is limited, but there's some outside areas to enjoy especially during the summer. All areas of ice cream shop feel clean and well-taken care of.

The ice cream itself is a nice balance between light and rich. Flavors are always changing and quite unique (Fruity Pebbles and Teddy Grahams were on the menu tonight), and the scoops are HUGE. If you just need a quick sweet tooth craving, a kiddie...
