Mystic Ice Cream — Restaurant in Leesburg

Stopped by this unexpected treat after finding myself craving ice cream while traveling through Leesburg on my trip back home after a particularly rough day. Everything about this store, including the lone man serving ice cream were an absolute delight. He took time to talk about the store's history, how the ice cream is made, what makes it unique, the store's design and how he ended up there. He allowed me to sample a couple of flavors to figure out which was calling my name, and he even found the perfect mixture of two for my shake.

Decor was interesting and eclectic. Fantastic trip overall. We will be...

The employees are nice and the atmosphere is enjoyable, however the ice cream is extremely overpriced. $16 for 2 small orders of ice cream (non-alcoholic) and the employee asked us out loud in front of other customers if we wanted to leave a tip and how much, instead of handing us the card machine. We would’ve tipped regardless, but it’s a little unprofessional to ask that question blatantly out loud.

I understand the ice cream is homemade, however $8 for one scoop is more than I’m willing to spend, personally. If the price doesn’t bother you, then I think this shop would provide a...
