Toby’s Homemade Ice Cream — Restaurant in Washington

We dropped here because they just opened up and it was a hot day so time for an ice cream break. We all got shakes, Oreos, Ube, Banana, and Chocolate to test out each flavor and get a good sampling of their ice cream. First of all, we feel the price is cheaper than other competitors around this area which is good for a milkshake that can get expensive. The employees are nice, and made our shakes with care. We saw several kids customers but they serve them friendly, so as they mention, we feel they are a really friendly neighborhood 😊 They have a little table and 2 stools inside, but there are long benches and tables outside, so you can find your spot to finish your ice cream or shake without having to walk around or stand hotdog vender style hoping not to drop anything on your shirt.

The shakes were good especially the Ube and Banana flavors. The chocolate and Oreos were standard so still a good bet if you are indecisive or want something stable. They have an average selection of flavors with some more unique and others more safe. So it is easy to get something for everyone. They also have cones and toppings but if you want either make sure you tell them first when ordering as there was a little sign. It makes it easier for them to work with specific requests i guess. There is a playground for kids and a dog park. On Saturday they have a farmer's market in this area, so if you live or stop around the area I would...

My family and I have been coming here at least twice … maybe three times a week for the past year.

Today that stops.

In the middle of Police Week 2025, a time to honor law enforcement who gave their lives protecting the freedoms we enjoy everyday, including freedom of speech … a young lady commented that the area is “full of pigs” today. While her rights to say inconsiderate comments are protected by those same “pigs”, while her safety and wellbeing are still the priority of those “pigs,” these guys also deserve to enjoy a good treat with their families, without their children hearing comments on their parents’ service profession.

With some other comments I’ve heard from this same individual over the past few weeks, I’m not surprised. But after today, I will absolutely be taking my family elsewhere for our...

While I was in the ice cream shop, I tried the s’mores ice cream. It just tasted like cookie dough ice cream to the point that I questioned whether they gave me the right one. She informed me the cookie dough ice cream and s’mores ice cream taste and look a lot alike. Weird because they’re completely different flavors.

I then went ahead and purchased the peanut butter chocolate ice cream as well as the Oreo ice cream in a bowl. I literally tasted no flavor in either one. I let the person I was with try both individual flavors and asked him to tell me what flavors they were and he said I have no clue. I don’t taste anything.

The service was good. The store looks clean. But the fact that it’s a Saturday afternoon at 4:30 PM and 85° and there’s not one other person here should have told me what I...
