Summer Scoops

I would give this place 6 stars if I could. We only just discovered this ice cream spot mid-​way through the summer (ironically, on the way to take my son to the dentist…) and it has quickly become our very favorite place to get a cone. You really can’t beat this place for the money — and the servings are very generous. Our family-​favorite is the hand-​created ice cream sandwich — 2 chocolate chip cookies with your favorite flavor in the middle. Get it with soft serve, and its less than $ 3. Best of all is the sitting/​playing space. There are all sorts of chairs and other seating, a giant checker set, a wooden tractor with a slide out the back, and a wooden train. My 2-​year old LOVES the train — he insists that we sit in it to eat our ice cream, then runs around it in total glee. Summer Scoops is a perfect family venue — economical, and tons of fun.

The ice cream is reasonably priced, tastes good, and the people who work there are very nice! I will definitely go back!

Everyone who wrote a bad review is clearly just bitter and complaining about useless things that actually don’t have anything to do with the flavor and quality of the ice cream.
That being said, I had my first experience here today and I ordered a small salted caramel pretzel + banana in a cone. It was generously scooped and I highly appreciate that in an ice cream shop. It was also $ 7 for both my friend and I to each get a size small. It was more than enough for us and I would say it’s absolutely a good price for homemade ice cream.
I have had Bliss Dairy’s ice cream before and I’ve always had great experiences with it (it’s delicious). These flavors together were juuuuust wonderful. My friend and I actually had a pretty difficult time deciding on flavors because so many sounded so good!
The grounds are connected to a lawn and nursery company (possibly the same owners?) so there are so many great seating options. There is also a giant checkers game available to play as well as some other outdoor play sets. It’s definitely a great place to bring kids!

My husband got a hand packed quart and we got 5 small scoops out of it. I would guess a quart should be 4 cups and we got at best 2.5. The quart was not packed at all and we feel very ripped off. Probably a training issue. The ice cream itself is good. Can’t beat Bliss. Thank you.

Average prices and ice cream. $ 7ish for two smalls with sprinkles. But some issues– girl just assumed I wanted a cup, I didn’t and I was bummed. Ice cream was also icy (don’t laugh) but like it was slightly warmed and frozen again. I had caramel salted pretzel and both of boyfriends flavored were like this. Maybe they were just sitting, either way its an eh. I would just drive to Bliss or Ice Cream Machine and get the ice cream there in the future. I talked with my family and they had the same icy texture experience here.
However this is best (per a sign there) and only ice cream in p town so I’ll gladly go back.
I do love country so the muzak not a problem. It was very roomy and clean.

Summer Scoops is awesome!
They serve Bliss Brothers Dairy ice cream from Attleboro, and have what I consider to be a pretty large selection of flavors– including more than one chocolate/​peanut butter combo.
Of all the ice cream I’ve eaten in the area, this is my favorite– it’s deliciously creamy without being as over-​the-​top as Ice Cream Machine in Cumberland, and they definitely don’t skimp on the fudge swirl, peanut butter cups, or whatever else is in the ice cream.
The servings are generous, the outdoor seating area is large and clean, and the service was cheerful. If only it could be Year Round Scoops!

I have a new favorite ice cream place! The ice cream is very good, but there are few other great places that offer more selection. What makes this my new favorite is the abundant options for seating and kids for playing. They are in the Osborne landscaping location so you get to enjoy all of the benefits of a beautiful back yard seating arrangements, life size checker board, wooden train for the kids to climb on and wooden jeep with slide. The kids had a blast. It does serve as an inspiration to what our yard COULD be.
Things I would change:
1. Accept credit cards. Even locations that don’t accept them have an ATM on-​site. This could be a deal breaker some days.
2. Change the radio station or turn down the volume. I’m not a country fan but can ignore it when it’s just back ground. The night we were there it was pretty loud.
