Top quality ice cream. They have a mix of classic and interesting flavors. I got the sweet potato taro swirl and bees knees. Both tasted great! They also have vegan options, and there is bubble tea available at a different counter inside. It's part of a strip mall style location, so parking is pretty convenient.

The Hop Ice Cream Café 🍨 Size matters not, when flavor strong it is. Stopped by for a scoop of their Butter Pecan—rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The scoop was on the smaller side, but trust in the taste, young Padawan... it delivers. Bonus points for the cozy vibe! They’ve got a cute reading nook and a magnet wall—perfect for keeping little younglings entertained while you savor your scoop in peace.

Cute little ice cream spot. The employee who helped me was very friendly. There are vegan and non-dairy options available as well, which is great! There is free parking available in their parking lot. Definitely recommend trying them out! The ice cream I had today was delicious

Love their ice cream but I purchased this brownie from the hop yesterday 4/16. Didn’t notice the date sticker on till I got home. Can’t believe they are selling baked goods almost 3 weeks old!!!! As a baker myself this is gross!

Really cute place with several vegan/dairy free options which is hard to find as most places only have a sorbet for their vegan option. That is not vegan ice cream as my fellow vegans understand :) I had cookie butter and my husband had the Pistachio (no sugar added) ice cream and they were both delicious! Thank you to The Hop Ice Cream Cafe for having proper vegan ice cream options!! Highly recommend

Got the brownie sundae and it was so good! The brownie was warmed and perfectly fudgy with all the toppings. Only thing that bothered me was that the employee that helped us was just taking out the trash, and didn’t wash their hands (just did a quick hand sanitize)… which is gross

Okay, you guys have just got to try The Hop's amazing vegan, pea protein ice cream! I was skeptical because I've been kind of sold on oatmilk ice cream, but my server assured me I wouldn't be sorry. Their mint option is so creamy and satisfying you'll swear it's regular ice cream. I savored every single delicious bite, and next time I'll be sure to get more than one scoop---yes, I'll definitely be back for more :)

It's been a while since I came here for ice cream. I'm really glad I did. The employees are super nice and friendly. I ended up getting two scoops. One of the Oreo and one of the Bulldog Tracks. I was impressed and it was very tasty. I'll definitely be back.
