I'm not sure how long this shop has been here, but my family just noticed last night and obviously decided it needed further investigation.
My wife had frequented Carvel shops as a kid, and was looking forward to revisiting their Mint Chocolate Chip flavor, in the green color she finds necessary. She enjoyed it quite a bit. The 13 year old and I hit up some of the Carvel specific flavors, including the vanilla based Crunchies and Ice Cream Cake flavors. Crunchies was good, but Ice Cream Cake was great. I also tested out Ultimate Chocolate and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Both had the same tiny chocolate chips and my wife's Mint.
The Cookie Dough was very good, though the Ultimate Chocolate wasn't as dark as I like in flavor. All good, though. The ice cream was sufficiently frozen, too; no ice cream soup at this place.
It's a nice shop with a very friendly and engaging staff of young guys - at least during our visit.
We'll visit...
Read moreNOT GOOD..... the ice cream had ice particles in it....kinda like if your ice cream at home has been in the freezer too long. Honestly, I'd rather go to the grocery store next door and buy a mid-priced brand and the ice cream would've been better.
The DMV-attitude young lady at the cashier was dealing with a computer problem which is not her fault but she says "just dso you know we're only taking credit card" which was funny because they already gave me the ice cream cone :) AND - i was visibly holding a credit card, ready to pay.
Oh well, probably iwll save money...
Read moreReally impressed by the attention to detail regarding the interior design, could tell everything was new but they still kept that classic Carvel look, really nostalgic! From talking to the staff I also learned this location specializes in Carvel ice cream cakes so there's a huge selection made fresh onsite (also saw a huge selection of their Flying Saucers!). Had their scooped ice cream but also noticed they had mint soft-serve, will be back to try! Staff was really nice and informative, definitely planning to make this my go-to...
