Kurimu - Lincoln Park

Delicious soft serve & it's a pretty large space so seating isn't an issue. If you've never been before, I'd recommend reading reviews online prior cause the menu is a bit confusing. We got the seasonal flavors then you can get tapioca on top. Location is kinda awkard since it's on a busy street - but nonetheless, we love the dessert!

Staff lovely.Space super cute. I didn't eat in but many of the tables were in use by seemingly happy customers.Food, meh. Like okay but super melty and staff seemed unsure about options and almost $10 price point for a cone without even cute animal ears was not really worth it. Baskin Robbins 2 doors down is a better bet for true ice cream. In hindsight this spot might have been better for one of their specialty treats or drinks. Fine for walking. Tough for parking on Halsted just south of the former Dom's.

Very unique flavor options for both the ice cream itself and the waffle cones. You could easily come here many times and continue to try something different every time.The staff was very friendly! They allowed us to try samples, and helped a lot when we asked for recommendations. There were a lot of flavors like Purple Yam, Banoffee pie, and black sesame that I had never seen or heard of as ice cream flavors, so samples are always nice before deciding!Plenty of tables and seating to enjoy your treat there if you didn't want to take it to go. We had to pay for street parking which was unfortunate, but it was definitely worth it!

It's a small shop, haven't been to this location in a couple years but it's pretty easy to get in and out when you're in the area. Street parking of course but the service is always quick. There's not much seating inside so many just pick up orders and leave. They have a super cute special for kids, they will make any scoop into Miffy. The ice cream is always really great. We got their specials Ocean mint and Harajuku strawberry soft serve, highly recommend trying them.

Kurimu opened in Lincoln park this year and I was so excited for a warm day to get some ice cream! Their space is modern and pretty cool. I liked the multi-level bench which was fun to sit at some non-traditional seating to eat. Even though the guy making the ice cream was right there, you order on the iPad system which felt a little odd considering if you wanted a sample, he had to get it for you. They have both soft serve and regular ice cream, but there is nothing standard about their flavors which I loved! The unique range of options made me want to try everything. I sampled the purple yam which was delicious and unique and I'd like to come back and order it. I was in a soft serve mood so i got the special which was a mango mochi parfait. I think their soft serve flavors are rotating as I've seen them have matcha and ube soft serve in the past. I am usually prefer chocolate over fruity when it comes to ice cream, but I really enjoyed this! It was quite unique and refreshing. Their prices are a little high for ice cream, but I enjoy the uniqueness of the space and flavors.

I frequent the Wicker Park location but stopped by Lincoln Park for the Pandan & Ube soft serve swirl. Unfortunately they didn't have Ube on soft serve that day so I just got Pandan. Still good but I do eventually want to try the Ube soft serve. I also got a Miffy cone with the Blueberry Cheesecake ice cream which was so scrumptious!!! I love the natural light that this location gets vs Wicker Park. The entire place was decked out in Miffy which was so cute. The staff were also kind. Kurimu is always a great spot to get ice cream! There's metered street parking available at this location.

The first time I went here with a friend she suggested I get the Messy Boba. You choose which soft serve flavor you want with it out of the two they rotate monthly. April is ube and pandan (light vanilla, coconut, and almond flavor) and I decided to swirl the two. On top of that, they put boba pearls, black sugar syrup, and a sweet plastic shovel to eat it with!I always trust the flavor swirl combination of the month and they always compliment each other. Service can take long when only one person is working, but they are perfecting a masterpiece before they hand it over to you to take a selfie with. For example, right now they have a Miffy collab, where they add a little face to the ice cream to make it look like that cute, little bunny Miffy!They also have hard ice cream in flavors such as purple yam, Thai iced tea, sweet corn, tiramisu, black sesame, and lychee pearl. The flavors and textures are my favorite and unique compared to competitors. I never really hang-out at this location as the seating area doesn't look comfy and typically take this ice cream on a stroll around the neighborhood. Que "Happy Together" by The Turtles for this moment.

Maybe I went at a bad time (Saturday night), but I was actually pretty disappointed in this new location! The actual flavor of the drinks were delicious, BUT there was barely any boba in mine and it took legitimately at least 10 minutes to make our two drinks (with no one else there)... I think the person working was very new and didn't have much knowledge/training yet. This slow service, combined with the sterile atmosphere and lack of decor, made it a pretty disappointing experience, especially compared to the other locations! The one on Taylor street is so much cuter, busier, more fun, better decorated, better drinks (with enough boba), and faster service. I'll give this another try to see if I just got unlucky, but even the decor and atmosphere were lacking! Hope they put some effort into making this location more appealing like the others, and training the staff well.

Im a big fan of Kurimu so was excited to try out the Lincoln Park location!I got a scoop of the blueberry cheesecake which was fantastic.The server was really nice and patient, as we tried quite a few flavors.This location was way less busy than the ones in Wicker Park and Little Italy, but has a lot more indoor space as well.I am not sure if Im a fan of the whole green apple theme they got going on.

Friendly staff, quick service and was able to try samples of different ice cream. You will have to pay for street parking - can be hectic to find since it's on Halsted. Lots of sitting space to enjoy your dessert. However, no public bathrooms.
