    Retro and fun ice cream shop (the hand-scooped kind) with kitschy decor and vintage trinkets around. This place will remind you of the ice cream shops of the 50's and 60's. Try a malted milkshake or a sundae with all the toppings!

    Fun retro and family friendly place to get ice cream and play board games. Had the dairy free ice cream with Oreos. There are a lot of flavors and toppings! Service was friendly.

    I like I Scream Ice Cream! It's a retro ice cream shop that offers huge selection of ice cream flavors (and toppings). The environment also takes you back in time to see all the fun paraphernalia back in the past. While the ice cream isn't homemade, I think this shop offers a good opportunity to just come and relax and enjoy your time with some cool desserts. You can get to try many flavors in a single order (get upto 3 flavors and a free topping in a cup!) The staff was polite and let me take my sweet time to decide on what I wanted. The serving portion was generous as well. This place was popular! I came in around 7pm and there were 10+ people coming in and out! Very nice and relaxing and just a cool environment to enjoy desserts! I would love to stop by again and love that we have this unique ice cream shop here in this university area!

    What an incredible spot for ice cream in ABQ! The owner Richard has tons of antique stuff, games and machines that would entertain the kids and adults alike. The ice cream was top notch a lot from blue bell which we appreciated as Texans and many other places. We loved getting to talk to the owner and learn his story and how he built his shop. Free topping for everyone and can have up to 3 scoops in a cup. We'll be back!
