The Local Scoop — Restaurant in Matthews

Took family here last night from out of town. Oddly nobody liked their ice cream—to be fair they wanted another local creamery who closed earlier. The ice cream here was uniquely “off”—I can’t put my finger on it but it didn’t taste like any homemade or creamery-made ice cream I’ve ever had, and that’s not a compliment in this case. Prices were consistent with market but the surprise came with $1 per topping on top of a $4 kiddie scoop. You can imagine not much of any topping can actually be applied to such a small scoop. Other places would take a partial scoop on a spoon and sprinkled whatever you want over top and maybe charge $1 for it all, if that. The Local Scoop charged $1 for each topping and provided far more than is usable in little condiment cups for you to self apply. $3 just for toppings was a premium price for a few sprinkles and the 2 or 3 gummies which could fit on top the scoop. Not a fan....

Wow where do I begin? I took my wife here for dessert on our date night after we ate at Moes BBQ and boy did they not disappoint.

I had the Cookie Monster which was absolutely phenomenal while my wife had the Coffee Toffee which was also great (of course I had to taste test).

Everything was super fresh, delicious, and you can tell they have a true commitment to their craft.

Side note, the employee who helped us "Chase" was so friendly and helpful that it made the experience that much better.

Highly recommend to everyone in the Matthews area to check them out.

We love supporting local businesses and The Local Scoop will now be in our date...

Some of the best ice cream I have ever had! They offer both dairy and non-dairy flavors. I tried the non-dairy mint chocolate chip which was absolutely delicious. It was light, refreshing, had the right amount of sweetness and even had real mint leaves in it! I've never seen that before in a mint chocolate chip ice cream. I also had the non-dairy cookie butter which was superb as well. It tastes like Biscoff cookie spread. If you're in the area and in search of a good place to get ice cream,...
