"Love this shop. They specialize in their homemade and seasonal ice cream flavors, and these definitely don’t disappoint. The staff is friendly and helpful. One important thing to note is that this shop is cash only! For me and my friends, Sugar Lips has always been a go-to after a long day of classes."

"This place was excellent! Great flavors, staff was kind to my autistic son! I would’ve given 5 stars but there was a woman (I’m not gonna say what race) who was loudly complaining about her milkshake not being sweet enough. My son started stimming so to calm him down I took a photo of him on the chair!"

"Only reasons I gave 4 stars was the tiny parking lot and didn’t feel any of the flavors I got had much flavor to them. (Banana cream pie, cereal killer, fall in Vermont, and party animal) Easy to find Fun and unique flavors Offers flights Cute seating available (ice cream cone chairs as well as standard tables with chairs and umbrellas) Affordable Limited parking and only takes cash"
