Oh my gosh, I was so pleasantly surprised to find such good ice cream during our Big Bend trip. The owner was working and was very friendly and comes from several high end restaurants where she was the dessert expert. We got the Tiramiso Parfait and the Mango madness and a pint of honey lavender ice cream to go. Both sundaes were fantastic and we were both so happy. We do wish we had gotten a different to go ice cream as it wasn't bad but not as good as the other things we had there.

Really hit the spot after hiking all day! The Tropicana was my favorite with pineapple soft serve, fresh berries and candied lemon peel. We loved it so much we came back for pints of the grape sherbert and the Vietnamese coffee. You gotta give them a try when in town 😋

Best ice cream in town! Soft serve is homemade. I got the Hot Fudge Birthday Brownie because it was my birthday! So so tasty. Extensive menu to choose from and the woman who helped us was so friendly and passionate. Note: if you are taking your ice cream sundae home with you instead of eating it on the spot, it will melt and likely leak all over your car 😅 in the brown paper bowl it was served in (pictured), the melted ice cream leaks through the corner folds. Didn’t take away from how much enjoyed this place! Highly highly recommend!

Cute little ice cream trailer serving dessert in the desert. They even have dairy free options! I had the Tropicana which consisted of dairy free strawberry soft serve, fruit, candied lemon peel and a berry sauce. It was delicious and a super generous portion, you could probably split one between two people. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Hands down one of our favorite stops in Terlingua! Milky Way Treats is a gem in the desert, and the woman running it is as sweet as the treats themselves. She made us feel so welcome—like we were stopping by a friend’s place for dessert. We tried a few flavors and loved them all, but the tiramisu ice cream is bomb—so creamy and rich, with just the right coffee kick. And the blueberry cheesecake? Absolute favorite. Perfect balance of tangy and sweet, with real blueberry flavor and that cheesecake swirl… we’re still dreaming about it. If you’re anywhere near Terlingua, do not miss this place. It’s small, friendly, and full of heart (and amazing ice cream). We’ll be back for sure!

Out of this world ! Best ice cream in town! Only open sat-mon so be mindful of the hours 4-9 pm. Definitely worth it though, it's hand made ice cream so super decadent. Amazing stuff, staff and owner super friendly too. Great place, Definitely coming back to try more flavors 😋 😀 it was my birrthddday so they even added a candle 🕯🥳 🎉

Grabbed a beer at Boathouse and noticed the truck. 10/10 would recommend!!! The vegan strawberry was the best and I didn’t expect them to have an option for me since I’m dairy free. My boyfriend says the normal vanilla is a 9/10.

We saw another review saying they went twice in one day, and now we know why. This place is amazing! The homemade ice cream is delicious, the sundaes menu was creative and aesthetically impressive, and the flavor combinations were incredible! The owners were so friendly and helpful too. Definitely don’t miss this place if you’re in Terlingua!
