Maggie Moo’s

I think this place is closed. I tried to find it tonight figuring that I could handle the real ice cream since I have been running like 6 miles a few times a week, but I couldn’t find it. I will have to go to Cali Yogurt later down the street! Less calories and less expensive than this place was anyway.

The pistachio flavor is a weird unnatural neon shade of green, probably created with a syrup since no pieces of pistachio are actually in it. I’ll still eat it though! lol
I didn’t like that they didn’t have a small cup so their regular size cup comes with 2 scoops for $ 5 which is just too much food.
What they do that is unique is if you get a cone they will roll your toppings into your ice cream.

I love waffle cones… I used to frequent this location for that very reason. It became a tradition for me to walk around Adams Morgan with a friend and a half-​split cone dripping with melted ice cream, in the summer. Yeah… I wish it wasn’t so messy, and that the ice cream wouldn’t melt so easily. I figured I’d look at the cone half-​full, and just chalk it up to DC humidity and the city’s affinity for stickiness, in general.
I think I tried some odd flavors (one very blue one, in particular), but I mostly ordered my favorite butter pecan. The mint chocolate and pina cowlada flavors were okay. Although I’ve had better, I definitely revel in the fact that a specialty ice cream eatery is within reach.

Delicious, but waayyy too expensive. I mean WAY too expensive.

I was very disappointed that this location of Maggie Moos wouldn’t sell me a kids cone instead of an adult cone when I asked for something smaller!
I guess they’d rather be greedy and make profits than keep America from getting fatter and eating larger than needed portions. I walked out and went somewhere else.
Shame on you, Maggie Moos DC!

I didn’t realize this place did the «Cold Stone» style ice cream. It’s pretty damn good, as far as ice cream places go. It’s not cheap but I got a small cone and my boyfriend had to eat a a good chunk of it.
I got the crazy peanut butter chocolate one, it was really freakin good.

Cake batter ice cream… as far as I know they are the originators… GREAT SUGARY ICE CREAM… good stuff and a nice place to earn that gym workout: O I need to try those ice cream cupcakes… I am officially on notice!

What’s better than a cupcake? Answer: an ice cream cupcake!
I hate to admit it but I’ve never had just the ice cream because I ALWAYS get the ice cream cupcakes. WOW I actually took pictures and emailed them to my friends and family because I just couldn’t believe how amazing it was. The cupcake has a layer of cake and then ice cream and then frosting-​ALL AMAZING! My two all-​time favorites are the birthday cake and the one that looks like a Hostess chocolate cupcake… yummmm! The only downside is that you have to order the package of 4. I have no will power to save them and spread out the joy; I end up scarffing them in a day or two. These cupcakes are so scrumptious I used to bring my out-​of-​towners to experience the bliss for themselves!

I wanted to try the dark chocolate ice cream, but they didn’t have it in the freezer. Instead, I got the cheesecake ice cream with strawberries, teddy grahams and banana. The strawberries consisted of syrup with meager strawberry rations. The teddy grahams were graham cracker dust. :(The banana was good!
My ice cream didn’t taste bad, but it wasn’t fantastic. It was expensive for the amount, and was super melty before I even started eating it. :(

What a sad sad looking establishment. Every time I walk into Maggie Moos I feel depressed. Maybe it’s the fact that the store is just way too large for its purpose, maybe it’s the fact that even the people who work there would agree with me, who knows?
I mean– C’mon– it’s ice cream blended with sugary yummy crap. How can you go so wrong? I wonder if they just have terrible feng shui… like if they moved the trash can to the north corner and put a small fountain by the door business would be booming. It’s a total mystery.
I’ve had the ice cream and it’s not terrible. I’m also not drawn to its doors everyday, which says a lot since I live close by and I’m a big ice cream fan. The only person I know that likes this place is my boyfriend… he likes plain mint ice cream and relishes mix-​in ice cream parlors because they’re the only places where plain mint ice cream is sold. (I know, he’s a freak) But even he won’t eat inside Maggie Moos.
It’s just sad. Ice cream should be about happiness and blissful denial, not disappointment and low self-​efficacy. Move those trash cans Moos… who knows…

Like Cold Stone except the ice cream doesn’t taste like butter. If you think it’s expensive it’s because you’re paying for the inevitable class action arthritis lawsuit that’s going to be filed on behalf of anyone who’s ever worked there.

Maggie Moo’s ice cream is, quite simply, inferior. The servings are not particularly large for the price you pay, and the quality is lacking – the kind of ice cream that, after you’ve finished a large bowl, will leave you feeling like you just didn’t quite have enough. It’s creamy, but not rich. There’s a rather wide selection of ice creams, but none of them ever look that appetizing to me. This is quite a feat for an ice cream parlor. Minus two stars.
The service at this particular store is fine, I guess. No complaints. The seating is limited but sufficient. The store is always really cold inside, which, yeah, I get that they serve ice cream, but it really doesn’t need to be this cold. Minus one for ambiance.
Plus one for location and one because I’m feeling generous and it’s not the WORST ice cream parlor I’ve ever been to.
If you’re going to spend five bucks on ice cream, go to Larry’s. You’ll thank me later.

Ice cream chain, similar to Cold Stone Creamery in that they can fold in extras like oreos, fudge, strawberries, etc. A bit overpriced for average-​tasting ice cream ($ 6 for a small?). But we enjoyed watching my friend eat the «Original Blue Cotton Candy» ice cream — it turned his lips blue and then he made this zombie face that made him look all creepy and dead.
