Highlight of a Merrickville Visit: Not to be Missed
August 19, 2014

Merrickville is always a charming town to visit to enjoy the sights and boutiques. After walking through the town on a hot summer day, anyone and everyone who knows Merrickville makes a stop at the Downtown Ice Cream Shoppe to savor one of the delicious and often unusual flavors. Rhubarb ice cream was my delightful experiment this time, but Oh,... more

Creamy goodness
August 09, 2014

Two large waffle cones with two scoops each made for lots of decision making. Luckily the staff is happy to offer mini-spoons of taste samples to make up your mind. The small shoppe was very crowded but the staff were very efficient in their scooping and kept everyone moving along.

Great Gelato- wonderful staff
July 18, 2014

We drove all the way for their gelato from Kingston and it was amazingly good. Some elderly bus visitors thought it was too expensive but they were so wrong. Quality ingredients are evident in the taste and I'd rather pay more for something delicious and homemade than pay a little for bad product.
will be back….

A delicious return trip
July 07, 2014

I was here the other day and it was delicious. I had a scoop of daquiri and a scoop of peach in a waffle cone. Where the two flavours met tasted very much like a peach bellini or peach daquiri.
They also had a mystery flavour, which you could guess what it is or is made with.
My friend had... more

Ice Cream & Gelato
July 01, 2014

You can't go wrong with ice cream. It can get very crowded in a little store. Sometimes it's difficult to see the flavours (they have lots) because everybody is trying to look at what's available. It's also a little pricey. The ice cream is made on the premises using local ingredients. It's a "mom and pop" so if you're looking... more

Tasty and friendly
June 28, 2014

It was very busy when we went in, but the sales guy happily made me a soy-milk soft-scoop vegan "ice cream". My partner loved his coffee ice cream. Bonus - you can try flavours before making your selection.

Great ice cream
March 03, 2014

lots of flavours and choices of cones. You get to sample different flavours before you commit to one which is very useful. However, the downside is that the ice cream is pricey.

Great gelato and waffle cone
July 27, 2013

We stopped on after a lovely picnic by the locks. They make their waffle cones on site, so that was the first thing we smelled, yum! I had the limoncello and the pomegranate gelato, both were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the tangy lemon. The chocolate and coffee gelato were also very good. The waffles cones were excellent! The servings were... more

The lemon gelato was perfect for a 30+ degree day. The shop was crowded and everyone seemed to enjoy their choices.

Yummy on a hot day
June 20, 2013

We stopped in here on a hot summer day for some yummy home made ice cream. What a treat! They had some of usual flavors like Vanilla and chocolate and then some more unusual ones like rhubarb and raspberry. I had one called crazy kid, mmmm. Yum!

Had better for less
November 20, 2012

Ice cream was average at best and overpriced! I have had better for less! I tried coldstone creamery on my way from Toronto and its much better for less. Merrickville is still a great community to visit so do your self a favour and see all the historic buildings and nice little shops.

Great flavours

Popped in on our way out of town for a cone. A nice variety of homemade ice cream and gelato flavours. There was a large candy variety as well. The service was very friendly.

Wonderful gelato and ice cream
August 15, 2012

This place is always busy in the summertime and it is easy to see why. Their ice cream and gelato is made on the premises and it is wonderful. We always get a single scoop in a waffle cone and the two cones come to over $10, so it's not cheap, but you really get what you pay for.

Good ice cream
August 03, 2012

Very good ice cream and waffle cones but expensive! Lots of flavours to choose from. Cute shop with locally made toys and lots of candy choices. Tried to sponge toffee and it was very very salty for some reason. $23 for a small kids cone, a double scoop waffle cone, single scoop waffle cone, toffee and 2 Oreos. Nice staff.... more

Good but i've had better
July 30, 2012

A refreshing treat for sure. But as far as home-made ice cream goes, this one is averagely good. I've had far better - in NYC as well as in Wakefield.

I scream for ice scream
July 14, 2012

These guys have the BEST ice cream in the Rideau! My wife had us go there twice in one weekend, and we live 45 minutes away. The only drawback is that it is a small olde tyme shoppe and its ALWAYS busy. But if you don't mind the wait it's worth it.
Bon appetit!

What great ice cream. All the ice cream is hand made on site. Many of the flavors you've never experienced before (one of my favs is rhubarb). Try it; you'll like it.

October 23, 2011

I LOVE this place. It's very "old school" (as my boyfriend described), given that we were offered samples of the ice cream and gelato flavours before making a purchase. All the ice cream and gelato is homemade, and man is it delicious. You can even get a single scoop with two flavours (try the Crazy Kid with the Tiger Tail--it's... more

Not to be missed
August 11, 2011

This is a family owned shop that sells their own home made iceream and sweets, its not a restaurant as Tripadvisor thinks it is. It was a hot sunny Saturday when we visited the lovely village of Merrickville, whilst my wife and daughter in law were in a dress shop I discovered the ice cream shop, what a delight, friendly... more
