I went here for my birthday and got Banana Split with Mint Chocolate Chip, Rum Black Cherry, and Banana or Bread Pudding ice cream.
Banana pudding ice cream with PBCs (peanut butter chips)

We actually got serenaded with a few special songs!

It's been several years since I last visited this charming establishment after moving to the other side of town, and I'm thrilled to say it hasn't lost its magic. This time, I brought my 5-year-old son, who I was pregnant with during our initial visits. He absolutely loved the place--the vibrant theme and, of course, the ice cream have captured his heart. It's now his favorite ice cream spot!I'm delighted to see that, over the years, they have maintained their authenticity and charm, which is what makes this venue truly special in Albuquerque. It's heartwarming to witness patrons leaving kind notes for the owner in the logbook by the door, a testament to the community spirit fostered here.The establishment is tidy and well-kept, ensuring a pleasant experience for everyone. In addition to their fantastic ice cream, they also offer hot dogs, making it a versatile spot for a quick bite. It's a fun destination for kids, teenagers, and anyone looking to hang out and enjoy a game of board games. Overall, this place is a delightful gem in the heart of ABQ, and I can't wait to return!

I like I Scream Ice Cream! It's a retro ice cream shop that offers huge selection of ice cream flavors (and toppings). The environment also takes you back in time to see all the fun paraphernalia back in the past. While the ice cream isn't homemade, I think this shop offers a good opportunity to just come and relax and enjoy your time with some cool desserts. You can get to try many flavors in a single order (get upto 3 flavors and a free topping in a cup!)The staff was polite and let me take my sweet time to decide on what I wanted. The serving portion was generous as well. This place was popular! I came in around 7pm and there were 10+ people coming in and out! Very nice and relaxing and just a cool environment to enjoy desserts! I would love to stop by again and love that we have this unique ice cream shop here in this university area!

Nice variety of flavors. The scooper was friendly. The ambiance is funky, with lots of vintage pieces, but kinda neglected.

Hoarder's paradise. No way they can clean all the clutter stacked from floor to ceiling. Suppose it's a child's paradise with all the games and toys, but felt like a germ nest to me. Did not order, will not return.

What an incredible spot for ice cream in ABQ! The owner Richard has tons of antique stuff, games and machines that would entertain the kids and adults alike. The ice cream was top notch a lot from blue bell which we appreciated as Texans and many other places. We loved getting to talk to the owner and learn his story and how he built his shop. Free topping for everyone and can have up to 3 scoops in a cup. We'll be back!

Cool store with very friendly staff. I was disappointed to find out that it is just bluebell ice cream unfortunately which toMe isn't worth the premium price.

The owner is super nice and has so many flavors to choose from including Blue Bell, but also flavors from Michigan and New York. I love how he displays his collection and lets people play with some of the retro toys. There's also a great kids area which was perfect for my toddler. Like a McDonald's Play Place but better. One thing I am so thankful for is that I left my card there by accident. He had kept it safe for me and I was able to get it when I drove back the next day. Highly recommend to support this small business and get some lovely ice cream in a fun environment.
