The Red Bean

YOUR HOURS ON YOUR SIGHT SAY UNTIL 10:00!!!! We came to Annapolis at 5:45 just to get your ice cream. SO BUMMED. Not even a sign on the door saying sorry we had to close. 😞 the ice cream is so awesome but today… 😞

Ah, The Red Bean. I love this place so much. I’m not a huge ice cream person, but I could eat this everyday. I order chocolate ice cream with the strawberry oreo combination in a waffle cone. It’s SO good. You can choose chocolate or vanilla, and then your mix ins -there are so many options! Anytime I go to Annapolis, I go here. There are a lot of ice cream options downtown, but if you don’t pick red bean, then you’re missing out. It’s such a special place!

The go- to ice cream spot for me since Annapolis Ice Cream was rebranded. It just has not felt the same and so I wanted to try a new spot and Red Bean is a great spot with some great ice cream! You make your own ice cream, pick a base, pick two toppings, and they give you a pretty hefty portion for each size. (A lot if you end up getting a waffle cone). Also pretty fairly priced!

A good premise and combo of ice cream and coffee with non dairy and dairy options. Doesn’t take Apple Pay 😭 which is an option that hurts when you forget your wallet. I got a cookie dough coffee shake ( which didn’t have as strong of a coffee taste as I wished it did) but was still yummy.

This place is great! Air conditioning was on blast yesterday, which I appreciated. Clean bathroom for customers.

There is even a fantastic little selection of nondairy ice creams, which I *think* are a plain coconut base, swirled with whatever flavor you would like. My partner had peanut butter and I chose cinnamon dark chocolate chili. It had a little kick to the end of it. We also enjoyed chilled rosemary infused lemonade—we wanted to try the honey lavender lemonade but they were out as of yesterday.

There are gifts and local art lining the walls. We will be back!
