Review & Rating
Yummy ice cream. Some unusual flavors
Had a pretty fun time here. It was a beautiful day and they were bumping but not that crowded -- great patio seating that offers lots of dog and people watching. We got the flight (6 tiny scoops for $10) and it was perfect. We tried the following flavors: basil chip (Boston special), miso cherry, buttermilk honey blueberry, coffee crunch, saffron passionfruit apricot, and oatmeal cookie (v). Their vegan ice creams are oatmilk based -- the oatmeal cookie was a little one dimensional and easily our least favorite. Otherwise, the basil chip was phenomenal -- just bursting with basil flavor. The coffee crunch was pretty special for such a "basic" flavor -- the crunchy bits were truly bitter and coffee-y. The saffron passionfruit apricot was lovely and tart, the miso cherry was a super complex flavor that might be hit or miss for some (it was a hit for me, deeply savory yet full of cherry flavor), and the buttermilk blueberry was excellent as well. Service was a bit...strange. The person manning the register and coffee bar was clearly a little under-trained since they took a long time to rang us up and spent a ton of time looking for a cap for the coffee the person in front of us ordered...so by the time we got to eat our ice cream, it was already going soft. Their ice cream tends to be a little more soft-textured (closer to gelato than hard ice cream) but on the plus side, they're very encouraging with trying out new flavors! We'll probably be back! Great addition to the Chestnut Hill area.
Ice cream was excellent albeit pricey. Employees was friendly and diligent but the store was understaffed, leading to a pretty long wait
Love their unique flavors! Favorite is the miso cherry and thai ice tea!
This is very good ice cream. It’s more expensive than its worth, but it’s an occasional nice treat.
Great food and service ask for Alanna she is great
Was on vacation when I found this place. The person taking care of me ,Kayle, was very polite and patient with me. They had very exemplary customer service. Plus the ice cream was delish!
Very delicious ice-cream. The people who work in there are super nice! I definitely recommend this place if you happen to be in the area!
Went to OddFellows Ice Cream which is their first Massachusetts store. It is located next to Legal Seafood at “The Street” in Chestnut Hill. My grandson loved the vanilla ice cream made with colored sprinkles. I tasted several ice creams and settled on their Oreo ( I think it was called Hydrox) but was thick and filled with cookie pieces.
Woman outside the store started grilling me on my frosted tips haircut. I mean, who does that? I just wanted some ice-cream, and this mean woman starts giving me sass on my hammer pants, frosted tips and heelies? Wow. Just, wow. Think she needs to understand that my style never truly went out of fashion, it just became a vintage look. Other than that, great ice-cream! Rainbow sprinkles on top make them absolutely fantastic. edit: Forgot to mention the great customer service. Much love to them all.
