My ice cream was a bit too icy to live up to competition from the numerous other ice cream places nearby. Nice ambience and friendly staff.

Seriously tasteless ice cream. Not worth it. Had 6 scoops — only thing good was lemon sorbet. Cute, carousel horses inside. Ice cream just ok, at best.

Good ice cream. The flavors are not super original but the ice cream is creamy and rich. The prices are quite expensive, around $ 4.50 for a small cone but the portions are huge. I got the small and couldn’t finish and next time would go for the kiddie cone, which is more of a small serving.

My husband and I have vacationed on the Vineyard for about 3 years now and typically when we mention ice cream to anyone, they *always* suggest either Ben & Bill’s or Mad Martha’s on Circuit Ave. Can’t say my experiences with either of those have been stellar and when facing long lines and less than friendly staff I typically seek out other venues to satisfy my icy, confectionary desires. Crossing Circuit Ave from both aforementioned establishments, Carousel typically has a few patrons(probably as disappointed as I by B&B’s &MM’s), and the place is IMMACULATE. You can breathe in there. It’s décor is simple, but I’m not there to be impressed by what’s on their walls as much as I’m there to be impressed with what my tastebuds get. Although their ice cream selection may not be as wide and diverse as the other places, I’m quite happy with the reasonable menu of creamy delights. Being one of those«boring» fans of staple flavours, I chose their chocolate. I must preface this with I am pretty picky when it comes to my chocolate ice cream. Too thick & strong of a cocoa flavour makes me gag and thirst. Too less, it may as well be a bland vanilla. Happy to report, Carousel’s is a perfect balance of cream & cocoa. The staff serving has always been pleasant and I really appreciate good service. The prices are comparable with the other places(1 Scoop is about $ 4.50 give or take a quarter or two). –but Oak Bluffs is a tourist area and yes, we tourists will pay almost anything — hell, we’re on vacation after all! And I have no problem paying for quality. Because they may not be a longstanding ice cream place on the Circuit and fairly new, they’re not that popular. But that’s fine by me! I’d rather satisfy my craving immediately without waiting in a line that extends out to a sidewalk in a crammed space, with(–literally-) snotty nosed, whining and crying children and snobby, typical Vineyard visitors taking FOR-EVER to decide which flavor they’d like while taking 10 min to sample all of them, ignoring the fact that there are other people in the world besides them. Carousel — THANKYOU!

Very good ice cream. I really like the flavors I tried — Almond Joy and Black Raspberry chip yogurt. The Almond Joy was rich and creamy while the BRC Yogurt was light and refreshing with a very smooth texture. I would definitely try this place again, just couldn’t give it more than 4 stars because they didn’t have very many unique flavors, just your standard run of the mill options.
