"My daughter and I found this little ice cream shop after getting off the train. The outside of the shop is decorated so nicely it drew our eyes right to it. It was fun to take photos and made us feel like we were in a small town in London. The inside of the shop is just as charming. The employee, a younger man, welcomed us in and offered us a taste of whatever we wanted to taste. The selection of ice cream was good and they even have a few other treats for those who don't want ice cream. I am a big sherbet ice cream eater especially on a hot day and they have several flavors of sherbet as well. I gave this a 5 star and we will be back often. Love this shop! If you are looking for a cute place for a lady's get together and chat for an afternoon or a birthday party spot for a girl this could be a GREAT option."
