My favorite ice cream pre-celiac. Still great! Showed me what I could have and got me a gf cone (tbh didn’t know those exist). Felt safe and did not get sick afterwards.

Told me which flavours were GF, had GF sugar cones (or the cups as usual). Coeliac- no reaction after!

Gluten-free ice cream flavors were all marked on the menu board. They also have GF cake cones and sugar cones!

They always have multiple flavors marked gf, and fun flavors too. If you ask they'll wash a scoop and go to the back to scoop from a fresh container. They even have gf cones!

They do a good job with GF (and DF, too). The workers are mostly high school kids but, when you tell them it’s for an allergy, they all follow good safety protocols immediately. Well trained.

Amazing for celiacs. They had a bunch of gf flavors and as soon as I said I had a gluten allergy they said they’d get me ice cream from an unopened batch and clean a spoon for me without me having to ask. Great service!

Review
This was the only place in Boston we could find dairy free ice cream (not just sorbet). And as a bonus they had two different types of gluten free cones! So thankful for places like these - gluten free AND dairy free! Definitely a win.
