Little Baby’s Ice Cream

Tasty. Dairy free options made me do my happy dance. So good. Had chocolate Milano. Smooth, chocolatey and dairy free delicious. Boyfriend had Bourbon Bourbon Vanjlla. (He can have dairy) tasty. Small batch so you risk running out of a favorite but good to taste them all!

Best ice cream I’ve tasted with the most insane flavors. We had the sour cherry, chocolate Milano and sushi. Yes, that’s right — sushi. Someone in our group was brave enough to get it. It was a really good ginger ice cream with a touch of wasabi.

Talking about the one in Fishtown:
This place is a complete joke. It must be hard to sell $ 10 pints of ice cream (after going up from $ 8/​pint) to broke hipsters. It must be even harder when your counter staff is so standoffish that is makes you feel like you’re doing them a huge disservice by even walking in there or being remotely interested in buying anything. Hey Amy Winehouse-​winged eyeliner chick with a frown and holier-​than-​thou attitude… get over yourself. You scoop ice cream for a living. And hey, it may pay to be nice to people or smile once in a while because then people may actually buy your outrageously-​priced product. But I was fooled last time. When I bought a pint last time, she filled it up only half way, or maybe she thought it was full but because of all the empty surface area between the scoops and with her not even attempting to «hand-​pack» it, I was left with a HALF PINT OF ICE CREAM FOR $ 8. I’d be upset if I wasn’t laughing at her, or so confused as to how she can even make a living scooping ice cream.
I try to like this place every time I go in, thinking maybe this time will be different than the last. But no, it’s also the same experience of being looked down upon because I may want some ice cream. I will not give this place any more chances.
Oh, and their «dairy-​free» ice cream just tastes like coconut, no matter what the «flavor» is.

Who runs this place? A new frozen yogurt place opens up 3 blocks away (competition) and you increase your prices by 20%!? You should take ghe money and open Lil Babies Business School! It could be the new Trump University!

I first had Little Baby’s when I went to the Union Transfer, and I got Vanilla Bourbon. Tasted like real Vanilla Bean and Bourbon. Then I got some a few years later next door to Pizza Brain. Major props to them for making non-​dairy ice cream, which makes me really happy since I’m lactose intolerant. Fair prices and great ice cream. It’s the good stuff, high in butter fat.

What a neat spot. It was our first time here — we walked over from Memphis Taproom — I was expecting a line and there wasn’t one so I wasn’t ready to make my decision.
I know the staff would have helped me out, but I made a rash decision. The prices are a bit steep for what you get, and I think some of the toppings should be maybe already mixed into the ice cream. Example — I got chocolate chips as a topping and when chocolate chips get cold they kind of… taste different? And get harder. If they were already made WITH the ice cream they probably would be shaved/​a better texture.
I’m someone that likes decadent ice cream so I prefer chunks and stuff. I like to chew my ice cream. I got oatmeal raisin and it did have oats in it, but not very many raisins. The taste and texture of the ice cream itself was delicious. I appreciated the uniqueness of the flavors — the boyfriend got buttered popcorn — but I think a few staples need to be thrown in as well for good measure. So you can get one weird flavor and one solid/​staple one. Maybe just the day we were there they didn’t really have any «normal» flavors.
I didn’t know what the cookie options were? I should have asked.
Staff was awesome and the place was super hot but it was a super hot day. The pizza next door smelled delicious and it was awesome that you could take your food from either into either.
I’ll be back!

My boyfriend and I first stumbled upon their ice cream at a street fair and he’s been hooked ever since… the smoked cinnamon is his favorite. I like the atmosphere and staff is pretty cool. My boyfriend is completely in love with this place. I am not really of fan of all the exotic flavors but it is different. Idk I guess I am boring lol I do like the non dairy ice cream options and the toasted coconut topping is my favorite. I will definitely be a regular customer though despite me not being into all the different flavors. I am looking forward to try their ice cream sandwiches.

Always interesting place. Today we each chose the non dairy — but were not fans of the chocolate flavor. Perhaps they could give other non dairy options a try (other than coconut)

Best service ever. Awesome non-​dairy flavors. Good prices. Oh and vegan ice cream sandwiches. Forget Franklin Fountain

It always great to get some dessert after Pizza at Pizza brain. Little baby’s has great bourbon vanilla and they are generous with their scoops. Beats going to coldstone on Aramingo. The lines are never crazy at all. Flavors are a hit or miss. If you’re a picky eater you should call ahead of time for flavors in Stock.

Wonderful little ice cream shop with unique flavors and friendly servers. Try the rose pistachio!

Props to the customer w/​the SS Decontrol patch on his jacket.
Yummy vegan ice «cream».

Little Baby’s Ice Cream catered one of my company’s events here at the office, and the Speculoos ice cream was delicious! If you’ve never had Speculoos or cookie butter in general before, think gingersnap and graham cracker combined. Give it a try!
I wish they had a location here in NJ.

This place is so touch and go for me…
1. The prices are outrageous for what you get. The smallest two scoops of ice cream ever in my life with some speculous cookie topping… $ 7.
2. The flavors change daily so you have to check their Twitter prior to going to decide if they have something you might like. The first time I came here I was with my boyfriend and we left «hangry» because Ranch and Tomato and Grilled Cheese Sandwich flavors were not what we had a hankering for.
3. The flavors that are somewhat «normal», for example Chocolate Gold, Bourbon Bourbon Vanilla, Smoked Cinnamon, Yards Brown Butter Brawler, etc. are very tasty and decadent.
I would say definitely try it out if you’re into unique flavor combinations, but I don’t think I would go out of my way to come back to Little Baby’s if I needed an ice cream fix.

Hot tip: Little Baby’s makes the best housewarming/​party gift ever, especially if you’re participating in #DryJanuary.
Hotter tip: Buy the «5 pints, get 1 free» card for $ 40 to save up front.
Hottest tip: Pumpkin speculoos.
These folks have the utmost patience when it comes to tasting every flavor they have to offer. Thank you Little Baby’s!

Umm… hell yes! If you have never been to Little Baby’s, don’t google them. Their, shall we say «memorable» video may pop up and you may have nightmares for a week. Just kidding. Kind of. So creepy. So hilarious. I guess when your shit is this good you can do whatever you want.
First of all, selfishly I love it because it caters so well to vegans! Why, thank you! I’ve never had a vegan flavor I didn’t like. They are all so unique, creamy and delish!!! Favorites include toasted coconut and speculous. They have an excellent variety in both regular and dairy-​free. Whether it’s laced with Sirachi, red bull or earl gray tea, you will not be disappointed when steeping out of your comfort zone. Sure they have some «normal» flavors too, but I say go big or go home. They give samples so go for it! And Hello… make your scoop into an ice-​cream sandwich on huge VEGAN cookies?! Oh my goodness! Seriously dying over this.
Love the Nerds in the pepper mill. Such a quirky, fun touch. Don’t miss a photo op in the Saved By The Bell looking shower stall while waiting in line!
The place is decked out in awesome 90’s junk… Ninja Turtles, Pizza Party (remember that game?!) and pizza movie posters because it’s attached to Pizza Brain for those who don’t already know. Pizza Brain is in The Guinness Book of World Record for most pizza memorabilia and you get a taste of that while in Little Baby’s. The genius combination of these two make for a fun, delicious, inexpensive night out. Just don’t eat for a week in preparation. Pizza & ice cream, what’s not to love?! You can eat ice-​cream in the pizza place and visa versa… yeah baby!
The deck out front is a great spot to eat your scoops. Nice to just chill on a summer night with puppy in tow and sit and hipster watch. The courtyard out back painted perfectly and hilariously with Philly «legends» is also a great spot to eat your ice cream. It’s BYOB too. Live it up! YOLO :) Totally kidding.
Fab Philly Mom says: Duh, yes, get here! Why haven’t you brought your kids here yet!!!

Yes yes yes, so delicious. A weird little spot attached to a pizza place. There are all pizza themed albums on the wall and the floor has glass tiles with pizza faces w/​bugs on them. A perfect spot for LBIC to be attached to.
I had the birch beer vanilla and that’s the best. Always the best. Get this if you don’t know what you want. sample every flavor that’s interesting of course, but always get the birch beer. I also had the sweet potato with burnt marshmellow. It was interesting, not bad at all.

The staff was extremely helpful while my group of friends tried all the different flavors before settling on the equivalent of a beer tasting flight (6 mini scoops for $ 6). While the promise of pizza-​flavored ice cream lured us in, the flavor was not available so we got to try six other unique and delicious flavors. My favorite was the Smoked Cinnamon. Early Grey Sriracha was interesting but not my thing. The employee scooping the ice cream said his favorite flavor was «poop» yes we confirmed p.o.o.p. But unfortunately it wasn’t available today.

Came here last night to try this place that my friend keeps raving about. She mentioned they usually have crazy flavors, so I thought why not be adventurous? Although I am usually a plain vanilla girl.
Unfortunately the night I went they did not have anything out of the ordinary. It seems like they also switch up their flavors daily, so I probably have to come again to try something crazy.
I sampled the thai iced tea and the bourbon bourbon Vanilla, I ordered the latter.
The vanilla enters and the bourbon makes an entrance just at the end of the bite, making you want more. For those that want a more adult taste of vanilla, go for this flavor!
My only turn off is the mix of pizza smell, which can be a bit nauseating right next to an ice cream shop… but you get over it once you exit the building. I highly recommend sitting on their wooden benches — with the pretty garden lights it’s a perfect spot for a quick stop on a date or a a summer night with friends!

I have been waiting to try Little Baby’s Ice Cream ever since I saw those incredible, weird viral web videos and heard about those super questionable flavors. Did they disappoint after all these years of hype? I am thrilled to say they exceeded my expectations.
Mike and I grabbed the 6 scoop sampler to try as much product as we could — luckily they are very generous with their scoops, so for $ 6 we felt this was a great deal. We chose the Birch Beer Vanilla Bean, Pizza, Chocolate Chocolate Cookie Dough, Butterscotch Scotch, Spicy Honey Mustard and Banana Chip.
By and large, our favorite flavor was Pizza. It’s simply addicting. We’ve never had savory ice cream before, and didn’t expect to like it, but it was absolutely the sleeper hit. The ice cream had a light, fresh tomato flavor with bits of Italian seasoning throughout. We loved it so much we got it as a milkshake to-​go which we thought IMPROVED its flavor even more! Get this. It works, trust me.
The Birch Beer Vanilla Bean was my favorite sweet flavor — very much like the soda, but with a great punch of vanilla. The Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough was good as well, but had some consistency issues. It was very grainy for some reason, but the chocolate flavor was very pronounced and reminded me of high quality homemade chocolate pudding. The Butterscotch Scotch was fine, but didn’t have a lot of butterscotch flavor — it reminded me mostly of a straightforward vanilla ice cream. While the Spicy Honey Mustard was an interesting idea, it didn’t provide a lot of flavor, and burned as you swallowed. I’m not a banana fan, but Mike said the Banana Chip was good.
We definitely want to come back one day to try and conquer more of their flavors. Looking forward to the next time!

Super cute place with it’s own way of doing things.
Love that there is always a rotating flavor. When I was visiting Philadelphia, it happened to be a BBQ ice cream (Wut!!!), but for some reason it worked.
I got the Butterscotch Scotch — and it was as yummy as it sounds!

Closed on a hot summer day! = Lost a customer.
Why would you be closed in the middle of the day on a hot summer day? I heard about how great your ice cream is but I never got to find out & probably never will now. Seriously, was there a family emergency? It makes no sense to be closed. I wish I had a picture to prove this. I was just shocked & very annoyed. *sad trombone*

Just awesome! My wife introduced me to this place last night. I was leery of the $ 12 cab ride over, but it was worth.every.penny.
Not knowing what I was in for, and being the fool I can be about ice cream, I ordered a plain ice cream shake (they can make them with almond or with soy milk). It was the best shake I’ve ever had!
She allowed me to walk right into this giant mistake, went ahead and ordered a red velvet scoop for herself. I tasted it and was hooked. It has hints of spiced wine (Sporee) and it was out-​of-​this-​world delicious.
So I could not leave Little Baby’s without the full experience. I ordered the ear gray and sriracha scoop. How do they balance these flavors so perfectly? It was amazing. Creamy, a bit spicy not overly sweet and disgusting a la Dairy Queen. Perfection! I owe her big time!
