| Almighty's Full Review: Baskin Robbins |
Bubble gum to mint chocolate chip, rocky road to black cherry, seemingly every flavor of ice cream imaginable is available at Baskin Robbins. Sugar cone or Waffle cone, one scoop or two, once you've picked your flavor that's about all the decision making it takes to get some of the best ice cream you'll ever taste.
Baskin Robbins' stores are usually long compact establishments with several freezer cases full of ice cream and sherbet. Seating is usually sparse, but since ice cream is so easily portable, you won't really miss it. At less than $2.00 for one scoop and less than $3.00 for two, Baskin Robbins' ice cream is more expensive that the stuff at the grocery store, but you'll never find the selection and taste that Baskin Robbins has at the store.
Their menu has recently grown to include Starbucks' "frappachino" like coffee drinks, smoothies, and regular new ice cream flavors. Along with their traditional items: ice cream, sherbet, ice cream cakes, hand packed pints, sundaes, milk shakes, and banana spits, and Baskin Robbins is now an ice cream lovers dream store!
Baskin Robbins' ice cream birthday cakes are a great (and delicious) alternative to the plain birthday/holiday cake. You can choose any flavor ice cream to be combined with any of several flavors of cakes. Designs and text can be added (in icing) to make the ice cream cake perfect for any event. Just be sure to keep this cake in the freezer when you aren't serving it!
Peanut butter and chocolate is my favorite flavor. Like frozen peanut butter cups this super high calorie ice cream always has a home in my freezer. Dieter's beware, Baskin Robbins' ice cream is not (for the most part) a low calorie treat. But it does taste oh, so good.
I've always had reasonable service, though at times (especially in Summer) the stores can get quite crowded. Be patient and be rewarded!
