All I can say is “wow” and stand here in disbelief! This ice cream parlor goes above and beyond with a grand selection of candies and so many choices for cold and sweet treats!
Honestly, the first I walked into a candy/ice cream store and asked, “Will you be dining with us?”
Upon entering Ballyhoo, you see a wall of candy. A collection most would think is overwhelming, there are so many different types and some candies that are a blast from the past!
Once seated, we were given a menu (3-4 pages!) to decide how we wanted to ruin my diet.
My daughter selected a kid-sized cup of Salted Caramel Truffle with Reese’s Pieces peanut butter candy sprinkled on top. I went with the Chocolate Cupcake Hot Chocolate. Let me tell you, neither disappointed!
This place is set up with so many cool and funny decorations (there is a huge cow in the front window and an old gum ball machine in the dining area). It really makes the experience magical.
The staff are so friendly and helpful (and patient while we tried to make our decisions)! And really, if I was working there, I would be happy all the time, too!
Do yourself a favor and visit this treasure, but maybe plan for a walk afterwards to burn some calories!

The atmosphere is like a Harry Potter candy store with doodads and trinkets for kids, all sorts of rare and unique candies, and a moving wood ladder that you see in rustic libraries. The ice cream was absolutely delicious with plenty of unique options to choose from along with seasonal options as well. Outside seating is lacking but they have plenty of indoor seating space. Parking is street parking. Very kid friendly

My kids go in there all the time so I started to join, and there’s always something new! The lady that seems to be in there first said they were out of cannolis, and immediately offered to make us some if we had about 15 minutes. Not only was that really nice of her, it was well worth the wait. Their ice cream is amazing too, as my wife brought some home a couple times. You really have to see it for yourself to get the nostalgic feeling this unique place gives off. We will continue to be regulars for sure!

Step back in time and take an adventure to this amazing ice cream and candy store. Feels like it was pulled right out of 1905. The staff was great. The owner even let us climb the ladder to take pics. 10/10 would definitely recommend. Bring a pocket full of nickles to buy your favorite childhood candy!!

Absolutely amazing ice cream, and the whipped cream was so thick and homemade. Nothing like an old fashioned ice cream shop. The best is the variety of candy they have. Some I haven’t seen since I was a kid. Great place to visit after a baseball game.

I went here with my family and 2 kids. They charged us 18% gratuity because it was “6 or more”. I understand that this is a small business but this tactic is sneaky. Fine dining restaurants don’t even do this. They also up charged their season ice cream flavors with tiny print on the menu. My son didn’t enjoy his ice cream flavor so the waitress grabbed him something else- and we were still charged. I mean this is just standard ice cream, nothing special about it- so I feel like a bill should not be $40 for ice cream. My mom complained about the gratuity and the manager/ worker didn’t care or even acknowledge her feelings or try to make things right. I would have thought a smaller place would care more about their customers. Very disappointed and we will not be going back- we will also spread the word about our experience as well.
