Food (aka desserts): 4.75/5 Ambiance: 4.25/5 Service: 4.75/5
O.M.G. So I don't usually (read never) post about desserts alone but Cream Parlor, your ice cream deserves its very own post.
I had seen this place on Yelp while searching for ice cream places to take my son. But it wasn't until a friend told me about their dump truck ice cream that I realized going to Cream Parlor was actually imperative. But let me not get ahead of myself. So unlike big dessert places, Cream is like a mom and pop ice cream parlor. The decor is on point old school with cool vinyl records lining the walls and groovy chairs and tables. As for the service, the owner Johnny took care of us and could not have been kinder or more excited to share the awesome desserts with us and our kids. On to the important stuff: the sweets.
Us mommies realized it was our job to share in the sugar coma our children were about to have, so we ordered the hot chocolate. Sounds blah, but is the very opposite of blah. It's hot chocolate doused in Nutella, and then covered in Reese's puffs. One look at that thing and I knew I liked how these people rolled.
Next came the holy grail of kids' desserts: the dump truck ice cream. How is this not a thing everywhere? The people at Cream Parlor grab a toy dump truck, and fill it with FIVE SCOOPS OF ICE CREAM. We chose: vanilla, magic mud (chocolate with chocolate with chocolate), unicorn poop (yup, tasted like funfetti cake ice cream), cake batter, and "C" is for cookie (cookies and cream ice cream that's dyed Cookie Monster blue). After us crazy mommies picked the ice creams, we let the kids pick the toppings (five more of those). They (wisely) chose gummy bears, fruit loops, gummy worms, chocolate chips, and color sprinkles. Dear Lord. The ice cream itself was delicious. Creamy and incredibly tasty. The toppings just made it all even better. There's no way I'm not going back to Cream Parlor.
