Looking over the pictures people posted I see that they now have made the prices visible. Great ice-cream, but due to a poor service experience I had only 4 stars.

The ice cream was smooth and creamy, good but not great. They say the ice cream is made on the premises and it did have the homemade(in a good way, i.e. not mass produced) quality. And the counter help was much nicer than another Block Island ice cream place.

Ice cream candy and lots of ocean The Scoop Shack is a ice cream and old fashion candy store that features fantastic home made ice cream. I believe it’s relatively new because I’ve never noticed it before on Block Island and I tend to notice ice cream places. Then again it is sort of tucked away in a corner and could be hard to see. The store is small, with a counter for the scream and various candies and other treats scattered around. A couple of tables inside and a courtyard overlooking the ocean on the outside. Saying that the view is great is actually an understatement. We didn’t bother with the candy but the ice cream was absolutely incredible. Smooth and rich and no doubt containing a astronomical amount of calories and fat, just the way great ice cream should be. They don’t have vast amount of different types but enough variety to satisfy anybody except those looking for something very unusual. There aren’t many things better in life than sitting in a beautiful spot over looking the ocean and devouring great ice cream. Even though it was hoter than hell when we were on the island, a cool breeze was coming off the water and combined with the richness and algidity of the great ice cream the world was a perfect place. At least our little part of the world. Their are lots of ice cream places in the world but The Scoop Shack is one of those special places that I will always seek out when I’m on Block Island. The place to relax and just appreciate the moment and forget everything else. The ice cream here is exceptional but no matter how good the scream is, the views will always be even better.
