The Scoop — Restaurant in Malden

Been here twice, found it by chance walking somewhere else. Seems to be owned by a new family (used to be Spadafora Slush I think). Both times I went, it was during weekdays in the afternoons.

Not sure why people are saying the portions are small, because both times I went they were HUGE. Got a small soft serve with a cherry dip in a cone, and ended up needing a cup because it was so big. My husband got a large hard ice cream and it was three giant scoops in a cup.

It’s wonderful to see a local business thriving and carrying on such a beloved tradition. If you haven’t stopped by yet, you’re missing out on one of the most delicious and heartwarming...

I get they are new but service was so slow. There was 2 people working and about 6 customer waiting. One employee brought over ice cream to someone waiting and walked away not realizing there was a line waiting to order. The menu said ice cream in a cup/cone with a price listed. The kiddie with sprinkles was listed as a 1 scoop and then they charged me for sprinkles and the cone. I said something to her about the lack of sprinkles on my ice cream and she offered to put the ice cream in a cup. I said most other places roll the ice cream in the sprinkles and cover it. They will never survive the lines when the warmer weather comes if they don’t figure out what...
