To the Moon and Back Frozen Treats — Restaurant in Oak Ridge

If you are in Oak Ridge and get an ice cream or Italian ice craving, this is your place. A very nice young man greeted us and answered all of our questions. Here’s ‘“the scoop” (see what I did there?) All ice cream is made on site, in small batches and you can taste before ordering. $7.00 Space Flight = 6 sample scoops & waffle chips, served in what looks like a plastic mini cupcake holder. House made small waffle cones and small waffle bowls add $1.00. They also have paper cups and standard cake cones Sugar cones aren’t house made but for $2.00, upgrade to a chocolate chip, chocolate or salted pretzel cone. Packed ice cream is available for pick up in a front cooler. You will be given a Frequent Flyer customer card. After 10 punches, you get to spin the prize wheel Waffle cones and cups are still placed in a paper cup which makes it a lot less messy.

We went to the "To the Moon and Back Frozen Treats" shop as part of Girls Scouts field trip to learn more about women run small business. The owner of the place was really sweet and took the time to talk to the girls and even showed them how they made their ice-cream's. They were very polite and patient and answered all our questions. We tried a variety of flavors and our favorite ones were Banana Pudding, Cappuccino Chip and Mint Chip. My daughter is allergic to eggs, so to find some really delicious and quality eggless ice-cream means a lot to us. Definitely check them out and you wont be...

We discovered that this is one of the few places in the triad that serves Italian ice AND is open on a Sunday so decided to try it out.

The shop is a hidden gem in an unassuming strip mall. Environment was quaint and quiet but everything we tried was top-notch quality in terms of texture, flavor and portion size! I was craving something citrusy and palate-cleansing after a heavy dinner and the grapefruit sorbetto hit the spot! 👌🏼 You can definitely tell that everything was made in-house and with care.

Service was friendly and prices were reasonable. We’ll...
