Cafe at Island Homemade Ice Cream Scoop Shop

This turned out to be a great little place for lunch! I have driven by it many times and mistook it for some kind of an industrial or storage site. I suspect a colorful awning out front would do a lot to make it feel more “restauranty”.

There isn’t a huge selection of lunch items and there doesn’t seem to be a way to see which soups are available without talking to someone at the counter, but there’s definitely a lot of ice cream, and the location is certainly convenient for anyone on Commerce st, or the industrial park.

If you have lived in Vermont long enough, you know the importance of finding a good cafe that serves delicious food and has a great ambience. We had a wonderful experience in this hidden gem of a place, I was initially not sure what to expect as the name focuses on ice-cream which was absolutely amazing, we left with few different flavors. But we also enjoyed grilled cheese croissants, these were cooked to perfection. I had a grilled cheese croissant with swiss cheese and eggs in it..oh my God..just heavenly. My wife had her grilled cheese croissant with caramlized apples and bacon crumbles..she loved it! We also had jerk chicken soup with our croissants, steamy, slightly spicy..yummy. Then we got raspberry muffins with nuts..this place doesn't fail to impress you. The owner stopped by and said hello to us..what a sweet and friendly person to meet, he was courteous and making sure everyone was enjoying their food..now that says a lot about why this place is so amazing. Definitely check it out...it's right off of Williston Road, we will definitely be back.

The most wonderful place for ice cream and sorbet (dairy free). The people that work there are excited about what they are creating and clearly care about making everyone happy. Our grandson not only gets a most delicious treat but gets treated like a 3yr old king! We love Island Ice cream!

Not a ton of breakfast options but ice cream for breakfast is definitely a hit when you have a toddler. Very nice and accommodating staff, very kid friendly environment. What they did have the day I went was really good - a bacon egg and cheese croissant that seemed panini pressed. I'd like to go back and try lunch sometime.

Wonderful service. Personable, engaging employees. It's clear they want the customer to be happy.
A happy addition to Williston!
