Great stuff. Lots of different flavors. They will give you a taste if you can't figure out what you want. Definitely a must see in Princeton.

Although small and often crowded especially on summer days, The Best Spoon offers imaginative and rich ice cream flavors and the staff are quick to serve. This was a great stop while visiting Princeton University. Best dark chocolate ice cream for miles!

Bent Spoon is one of my favorite ice cream places in Princeton and is by far my favorite cupcake place. Every day they have new and different fresh flavors, though I recommend raspberry with vanilla bean. The cupcakes are also truly amazing and great to get to go.

I experienced this local ice cream spot for the first time last week and have to say...it did not disappoint! I typically see a line out front, but figured I'd give it a go anyways. I sampled the Ricotta and Blueberry, which were both delicious but I opted for my usual scoop of dark chocolate and scoop of coconut. While the chocolate was right on, I had a little buyers remorse for the coconut. It was good, but the ricotta ice cream there was incredible! Next time I'll get that! My friends ended up going for the Mango, which based on what others were coming out with...was a BIG hit! Definitely consider mango or the ricotta on your visit! And enjoy every little spoonful!

What a great place! My kids love it and so do we. The ice cream is awesome and the staff is excellent (and patient)! It's great to go after dinner and then walk around Princeton which is such a great town.
