Ice Cream Cottage - Halethorpe

The peanut butter swirl cookies cream mixed was the best ever

Lovely spot. Great ice cream and service. No complaints.

This place is under staffed with bad customer service and will never get my money again. I came by and there was only one high school kid working who obviously didn’t know what he was doing it wasn’t busy but it took FOREVER to just get 2 cups. First he ignored me and started cleaning assuming I was with another group that had already ordered(that I wasn’t standing near, didnt get ice cream with, didnt talk to, nothing) he clearly assumed we were together because we’re the same race. Then he broke the register with a simple transaction and had to call the manager to help, while my ice cream I got for my family at home was just sitting melting. And after all this barely anything but a mumbled sorry, when honestly the melted mess I took home should have been on the house. Oh and none of the caps fit on the cups they give you and there’s no mention its cash only until you get to the register. NEVER ever coming here again. Actual ice cream was okay, but not worth the trouble when there’s other good options around.

This is a hidden gem in Arbutus. Tons of delicious flavors and great prices. It's no-frills and hasn't been updated inside for a long time, but do not let that deter you from sitting down and having a scoop (or three). You can get milkshakes, sundaes, different cone types, and they'll mix and match flavors for you. My single scoop waffle cone was less than $5 total and was too much for me to finish (I do realize that's super subjective and varies by person).They have a little area outside for seating and several booths inside. Perfect for families looking to have a treat together.
