This is my FAVORITE ice cream. I m pretty sure my boyfriend and I go here weekly so I m surprised I waited so long to write a review. They always have rotating flavors in addition to their staple flavors (get the cookie dough, it s the best out there), gluten free flavors, and they always have a unique vegan flavor. They also have amazing ice cream cakes, ice cream sandwiches, and cookies.

Very good ice cream. A dessert-friendly place for celiacs, and many of the flavors are listed as gluten-free. A new batch of ice cream will be opened upon request to avoid cross-contamination.

One of our favorite spots! We now order all of our ice cream cakes here - absolutely amazing and addicting. The food at Suto is phenomenal. Very creative menu with a variety of items and flavors that you can't get anywhere else locally. Everything is made in house which makes it that much better. Breakfast on the weekend is a MUST. Their biscuits, hash browns, and breakfast burrito are out of this world.

We've been here twice and both times were amazing! Our first trip we had ice cream at the Ice Box and ordered some fries from Suto. The ice cream was delicious but the FRIES...omg those fries...are what brought us back for Lunch this past Sunday. This time we ordered a California Burrito, Hot Chicken Sammie with "war style" fries, and Cheeseburger Slider kids meal (for our pup). Everything was SOOO GOOD!!! The Chicken Sammie was a total knockout and of course the fries will keep me coming back. The war style was awesome (peanut sauce, mayo, and onion) but honestly you cant go wrong with any way you get them because have I mentioned the fries are amazing?! The Burrito was huge and I got to try a bite so I can say it was delicious! Our dog loved her cheeseburger (and trust me shes a picky eater) and we loved that she could hang out on the back patio with her. Side note: the pickles that they served with the sandwich....are crazy addicting...so I'm thinking the fried pickles they have on the menu under "shareables" are definitely in my future

I came here a lot as a kid so I have fond memories of this place and they've changed it a lot for the better! There used to be a lot more flavors and there are a lot less now. My only complaint is the cotton candy ice cream has changed. Not only the way it looked but also it's flavor, I wish it tasted the way it did when I was younger but I highly recommend the coffee n cream ice cream flavor. That was really good. The girl who served the ice cream was very sweet, attentive, and helpful.

From the price, taste and service, this is a top notch ice cream shop.This was our second time here and so far we have had the strawberry, raspberry, coffee , coffee & cream ice cream and they come with chunks of fruits. Their vanilla ice cream taste amazing!Friendly staff, very professional and within a week in a half, we were ordering curbside, now you can go inside.

Great vegan options!! They always have at least one vegan flavor in the case ready to scoop and at least one other flavor in prepackaged pints. They also sell vegan ice cream cakes and can make you a vegan boozy milkshake (with vegan milk and vegan whipped cream). Will be back often!!!

There s something very special going on here. These people know how to cook GOOD food- and I don t say that lightly.I had the steak sandwich and it was amazing. I m still craving the buffalo Mac and cheese I had a few months ago.From one small business to another, I understand how difficult it is to run a business. I would love to meet the owner to say thank you for all that you do!

When we found Suto it was a much needed eclectic eatery. We have since made it a habit to go there for lunch whenever we could. Their food is amazing, never disappointed and can't get tired of the same old bc it's always fresh and unique specials available. Unfortunately town politics have bullied the long standing small businesses out and now they have to close and it's horrible what has happened to them. Shame on the town for allowing the nonsense to go so far. We love you Ice Box and Suto, and we will miss you and your bruschetta

I was immensely happy to travel 40 minutes for this French toast. The house-baked bread is fluffy and light, the zesty cream inside is perfection, the berry compote is wonderfully balanced with sweet and sour. My husband and I split the hash browns and he says the first bite instantly transported him back to Japan eating yakitori under cherry blossoms with the perfectly crispy crunch. They're perfectly seasoned and such a nice twist on a basic hash brown. We also grabbed a pup cup from Ice Box for our dog and she was absolutely thrilled. The peanut butter and milk bone were a lovely treat! We will absolutely be back! (Our ONLY complaint is that we didn't have any cash and couldn't tip on a card, but we'll make sure to bring plenty of cash for next time.)

Had the steak sandwich with some tots, and loved both! I've had the street tacos in the past as well, and they were also great! Highly recommend!

Some interesting flavors coming out of this spot. Zucchini whaaaaat it's definitely an interesting flavor combo with strawberry ice cream. Another spot to try in your ice cream trail in Connecticut and definitely worth the stop, you won't regret it. If you made it here check out ekonk farm as well for some interesting flavor combinations. Thank you to the girl at the counter and her friendly smile.

We sat here talking to the owner and what a great lady. All of the ice cream is made on premises and it is very tasty. Soft serve and hard ice cream both. Good stuff.

Sut� catered our wedding on 9/1/23 and we could not recommend them enough!! This small business made a huge impact and impression on us and our guests. From the start, they were so accommodating, friendly, and personable. The owners, Matt and Jenn, personally kept in touch with us throughout the entire planning process. They worked within our budget and allowed us to be creative. The food and service were amazing, from start of the night until the end. Our guests were blown away. You can trust that they will exceed expectations and make your event just as special!!

If you don't stop in here, you're nuts! The ice cream is absolutely out of this world. So creamy and delicious. I bought an ice cream cake and it quite possibly was the best I've ever had in my life and I have had ice cream cakes every year for my birthday since I could remember!! So, I advise you to run to your car and get to The Ice Box for a delicious treat!!!

The food was amazing. Staff was amazing also. OMG, the Mac and Cheese is an absolute must-have!!! Their steak and cheese is the best I have ever had, and I don't usually like them, but there was no grease or soggyness, so it was so damn good with queso cheese on it!! We tried so many different things of food, and it didn't disappoint. The ice cream was just as amazing!!! Highly recommend this place for food and desert!!!

Do not have basic flavor like cookie and cream or pistachios ice cream. They do have interesting choices like ice cream with liquor in it. But I don't really see myself going there often. I give them 3.5 so round to 4 stars

The Ice Box staff was friendly and helpful, and the ice cream was delicious! I highly recommend the Maple Bacon & Maple Walnut - the maple flavor was on point and there were actual chunks of bacon in the ice cream!

I am continually impressed by The Ice Box, their vegan ice cream options are amazing! They have multiple options to choose from AND gluten free cones! My husband tried a bite of my vegan red velvet Oreo ice cream and he couldn t even tell the difference, it s that good! He is also a convert, he s been a big fan of a different local ice cream place but The Ice Box is his new favorite! I love seeing all the hard work they ve put into the business! It s great to see in Brooklyn

This spot is the best!! The homemade ice cream is always fresh and clearly made with the best ingredients. I check the menu every day for their small batch specialty flavors and they never disappoint! My daughter is dairy free and I am so grateful that they always have fun vegan flavors that she can enjoy. The service is always friendly and fast.
