Far Out Ice Cream Express — Restaurant in Boston

While visiting Boston for an evening, a friend of mine and I searched for well-reviewed ice cream in the area.

The ice cream was very good overall, and the waffle cones were made fresh, just for us! Please read on for more details.

As the ice cream was prepared in "New Zealand" fashion, the fruit, the toppings, and the base were all mixed together in a swirling corkscrew pattern. I highly recommend the vanilla base, with blueberries and honey - in the waffle cone, of course!

Unfortunately, this location was not equipped to receive payment in cash, thus a cash tip was provided, in order to ensure that the hardworking clerk was able to be rewarded at the end of their shift for a job well done.

I found myself eyeing the merchandise, as the hat design looked quite enticing as well, and it would certainly be a hat that I would wear regularly. However, there was only one hat of each style left on the shelf, and I hesitated when purchasing the last item available, as that would negatively impact the appearance of the merchandise display. If I visit again in the future, I will keep an eye out for...

Gave 2 stars for lack of non-dairy and especially for how wasteful...

EDIT: the owner contacted me and was kind enough to offer refund as well as gift card, I'll be open to give the other branches a try next time, but not this location. Horrible place, horrible hot chocolate(?) and horrible server, dont go there, waste of money.

The person said they ran out of whipped cream and that it's "very liquidy" right now and suggested to either add that to my hot chocolate or to serve me without it. And so I had to ask without the "liquidy" whipped cream and she did not even offer a discount since she wasnt serving me the full product, on top of this the payment screen showed by default 20% tip. I got so annoyed but still paid for the hot chocolate and of course with 0% tip. The hot chocolate she gave me was not even warm, just cold.. such a...
