This place is so whimsical! The atmosphere is fun, and the ice cream is delicious. We enjoyed the old soda bar vibe while catching up with friends. They make their waffle cones fresh for you, and they're really good. We got a sundae, waffle cup and a strawberry shake. There is a bit longer of a wait since they craft each treat individually, but you can tell the employees make everything fresh for you so it is worth the wait. This place is a novelty and it's a fun little stop.

I stopped by here on a whim. I'm a sucker for a good ice cream shop. Freshie's is absolutely adorable!!! It's designed like an old school ice cream parlor. They have a large variety of vegan ice cream which was exciting because I'm used shops only have 1 flavor that's vegan and often that's sherbert. I got cookies and cream with hot fudge and rainbow sprinkles. I found the portions to be generous and was unable to eat all of mine. The attendants were friendly and when you ask for a sample it's given to you on a full sized spoon. I will definitely return to this vintage themed dessert shop.

Truly an amazing place! We went to Freshie's for our daughter's birthday and they were fantastic. They even opened during a snow storm so we could go! Cutest little place and wonderful hospitality!

First time we'd been there, nice place, good ice cream. "Slightly" cheaper than Crank and Boom. Very pink and white place ?

Freshies is one of my favorite places and has been for a while. I recently went in and asked for what I always order without nuts and it came out with nuts on it. When I corrected them they questioned if I had a peanut allergy and I said yes as mine is a mild allergy. Instead of making a new one they just took the peanuts off and acted as if they made a new one while peanuts were still on the plate. Again although my allergy is mild others allergies to peanuts are much more severe which should have been taken into consideration. I still love freshies but those with allergies should be weary.

Stopped by with my family for some ice cream after dinner. We waited 15 minutes to order and then an additional 15 to get our two scoops of ice cream, one of which was messed up and had to be remade. The ice cream was tasty but nothing special. Also a bit pricey for the amount you're given. Staff were mostly in training but for the time we waited, it wasn't really worth it.

Modern take on old fashioned ice cream parlor near Firebrook. Excellent ice cream, shakes and malts. Fast and friendly service. Highly recommend!

Very good ice cream shop and I love the homemade sodas. The atmosphere is great and the theme of the shop is awesome. However it is somewhat expensive for the amount and quality of food.

Great ice cream and soda shop. Our family went for the first time last weekend and we will definitely be going back. Everything we got was excellent. If you haven’t been here yet you definitely need to go. I think it is much better than Crank and Boom and much more variety.

Took our family to Freshie’s on a Sunday afternoon. It is a great ice cream and excellent non-dairy options for the lactose intolerant (like some of my family). The service was excellent and everything was sparkling clean - we will definitely go back again!

We love going here! It's such a fun place and such yummy ice cream. Our favorite flavor is the "cosmic dream"
