The ice cream was good but there is no pricing. The soft ice cream is self serve yogurt style. There is a good amount of choices of toppings. The shop is small and the teenage help is not very helpful. Once you get your ice cream and add toppings, the cup is placed on a scale and you pay by the ounce. The two ice cream cups, which we did not get a large amount of ice cream and toppings came out to over $15. What a scam. On top of that, one of the teenage help was asking another teenage help if they had a joint they could bum. Unfortunately, except for Bert's Market this is the only ice cream joint in town. Don't waste you money.

Poorly managed! People are cutting, even after a customer explained how the line starts. Staff did not care or they are poorly managed. You have one girl on the register passing orders out for milkshake, coffee and one girl just standing there waiting to scoop ice cream, but she can't do anything until the customer has paid. Weird operations! Do better. Not coming back here! Avoid at all costs! I would put zero if I can!

This is a really cute ice cream shop. Inside it was hot and it was only in the upper 60s outside. I have a medical condition that makes me hot and I couldn't handle it inside. My husband waited in the line for half an hour. They had only 2 people working and the line moved very slowly. I got "Dole Whip" that wasn't actually Dole Whip. It was a super sugary, artificial neon yellow with ice chunks in it. I couldn't finish it and it made me feel gross. It definitely wasn't worth the wait. I don't recommend it.

Not my fave, toppings tasted stale, and the frozen yogurt was not da best. Service was good. Clean inside.

TERRIBLE. Smoothies were made with boxed fruit juice blended over ice. Do not waste your money. No actual fruit was used.

Dolce banana was the perfect beach day froyo. They had a slim selection of flavors but had loads of toppings to add on!

I don't recommend, the icecream was not good quality and the "dole whip" was not actually dole whip, just pineapple flavored frozen stuff.

Vanessa McPherson

Staff not particularly friendly or welcoming. Yogurt is not good, pineapple flavor tasted chemical/fake. The cookie dough flavor was too soft almost runny. Toppings were stale. No sugar free or no-sugar added flavor or toppings available. No lids available for carry away yogurt bowls. Boba teas all have sugar, unable to do any of them without added sugars. There should be some options for health conscious or diabetic customers.

Won't let you sample the flavors. Walked out.

Pretty disappointing. Got a milkshake. It was only OK. Prices are very high. Service was not good when I was there (Sat evening). Wouldn't go back.

Came in later in the evening, so milkshakes weren't an option, but the ice cream (birthday cake) cone was delicious. The young lady at the counter was very nice and complimented my crazy t-shirt. There is a self-serve option by the pound that seemed to be working for other customers and candy options as well. It's a block from the beach, so beachfront prices, but i didn't mind supporting a local seasonal business. Parking will also be an issue, so unless you park on a nearby side street or get lucky with a curbside spot, you'll likely have to hoof it.

So overpriced. Paid $48 for 5 single scoop ice creams. Pricing was incredibly unclear and the quality was not worth the price. Tourist trap!!!

Weird that the reviews are low. I'm not sure why. The frozen yogurt is amazing, it's just expensive.

The family really enjoyed the yogurt almost every night while we were in Folly. They have several types of frozen yogurt and a variety of toppings you add yourself and pay by weight.
