J recommended we check out another ice cream shop in town, Cold Comfort, so we dropped in on a late Sunday afternoon. They’re located right beside Fernwood Coffee Company.
Nice that there’s some free parking.
Sign out front.
The inside is small but it’s a cute spot. There’s three small stool chairs in the back but that’s it for seating inside.
You can find more room outside out front or in their parking lot. Love it.
Lots of items to choose from: ice cream sandwiches, scoops, pints, pies and cake. Everything is handmade and pricey. Pints are $12.00.
Dairy free and gluten free options.
Definition of cold comfort…
They do have some unique flavours such as vegan horchata and dairy free Hoyne dark matter. They had 7 flavours of ice cream to choose from. No cones here.
Of course, they had pints and a few different drinks and sauces.
Their popular standard pints and ice cream sandwiches.
They’re part of the zero waste revolution so make sure you compost your scraps if you stick around to eat your ice cream.
Local pumpkin and Hoyne dark matter ($5.00 two scoops)
The pumpkin tasted just like pumpkin pie. The dark matter was just like the beer. Different texturally as it’s dairy free but good. We liked it but the amount of ice cream you get is small. Very small.
Worth a try. Crazy that they’ve made over 400 flavours since they’ve opened.
