Got an ice cream at lizzy’s. Looking good. What are your recommendations for ice cream in boston?
Charles river crunch :)
New City Microcreamery - Central Square
Toscanini’s - Central Square
FoMu - Fenway (non-dairy)
I like Gracie’s in Union square. Used to live close to there
I’ll try to remember to check this one out. Thanks!
The Ice Creamsmith in Lower Mills.
I’ve tried a few places on my day trips. Toscanini’s was great, but the serving size was underwhelming for the price. New City Microcreamery was similar quality/portions and basically right next door.
I went a bit out of my way on my last trip to try Matcha Cafe Maiko. They have tea-flavor soft serve and I loved that. I also liked Taiyaki NYC with the taiyaki cones. But it did feel far more corporate than I expected, even for a place with locations in multiple cities.
My next trip out I want to try Far Out for New Zealand style ice cream. That’s something I really want to try.
It’s probably out of the way for what people consider ‘Boston’, but Delini Gelato in West Rox is some of the best gelato I’ve EVER had.
The owner uses nothing but real, fresh ingredients, and it’s just incredible. I live close to JP Licks in JP and go out of my way to to Delini instead.
And I really like JP Licks FWIW
JP licks is great but it’s so damn expensive. Got a cone with two scoops the other day and it cost $9. I live a bit out of the city and the same quantity/quality of ice cream at a couple of my local spots is around the $5-6 mark.
