Clarksburg finally has icecream! It’s not perfect though….yet
What’s good so far? The atmosphere and location
The icecream yard is in the parking lot of the Clarksburg church with plenty of seating on the grass field
The truck itself is nice looking and the staff are friendly
355 is a little loud but the atmosphere is nice. It would be nice on a warm summer night
Jimmie cone and brusters are great but the icecream yard is local to Clarksburg and the atmosphere is arguably better
What’s could be better? The icecream and the value
The icecream is good but it’s not a wow…yet
I sampled a few flavors and they are a lot of unique options which are good. For instance roadrunner raspberry was a wow flavor
The icecream yard falls a little short in cone form though.
I got the Salty Caramel Truffle, 1 scoop in a waffle cone ~$6.34 after tax.
It was an 8/10. At first the icecream seemed like more ice than cream but it actually turned out to be the right ratio.
It was icy enough that it was very refreshing. This was one of the few ice creams I’ve had that was refreshing
The flavor was very good but the ratio of mix-ins to icecream could’ve been a little higher
Also the waffle cone does not seem to be homemade which is a little disappointing.
The waffle cone could’ve tasted a little better but really the best part about homemade waffle cones is that they are slightly bigger
Here they weren’t so I felt like I had 20% less icecream than an average waffle cone
Which leads me into my final point which is that the value doesn’t seem all the way there….yet. ~$6 for 1 scoop in a waffle cone is a little pricey for a smaller than average sized waffle cone
I think if the mix-in ratio goes up a little and they make homemade waffle cones then this can be a solid 5/5 icecream place for Clarksburg (which I hope happens)
Nonetheless It’s off to a great start and they have a lot of different options other than just icecream in a cone. The milkshakes and sundaes look great
Worth trying out if you live...

I recently visited The Icecream Yard and had a fantastic experience! It had such a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a casual hangout or a family outing. The staff was friendly and helped me choose the perfect flavor from a wide variety of options –from classic chocolate and vanilla to unique Indian flavors options like Kesar Pistachio, Malai Kulfi and Butterscotch.
I opted for a scoop of the mint chocolate chip, and it was the best I’ve ever had – creamy, refreshing, and full of flavor. The portion sizes were humongous, and they even offer gluten-free, egg-free and dairy-free options, which is great for those with dietary restrictions. Plus, their waffle cones are incredibly crispy.
The setup itself was clean and cozy, with a few outdoor tables where you can enjoy your ice cream anyday. Overall, I highly recommend The Icecream Yard for anyone craving a delicious,...
Read moreI came here due to a recommendation and I really was excited to try it. Unfortunately I wasn’t impressed. Hersheys Icecream isn’t anything special but when I am paying over $5 for an Icecream, I would think I would be getting something worth my time and money. Let alone I would be getting a full scoop of Icecream while also having to pay almost another dollar for a cone. I was almost disappointed at the speed of service. It was slow and the staff wasn’t very friendly. I had also asked some of the workers what their tipping situation was. They had told me that they only received cash tip WHICH IS ILLEGAL!!!!! These workers need to be compensated the full amount!!!
Other than all of that, I enjoyed the Icecream, but not the price. There definitely could be some changes made to make this business a lot more successful. Good job...
