My husband, daugther and I decided to check out Scoops. We just relocated to Gulf Shores so are exploring our new home. The service at Scoops was very unpleasant. The yound girl at the register literally took my $5 bill, threw it on the register, handed us our ice-cream and walked away. I was left speechless. Perhaps her attitude is... more

We stopped in one evening for ice cream. They had a large choice of flavors. I can never decide on just one flavor, but 2 scoops is too much for me. They let me choose a half scoop of one flavor and a half of another for a one scoop price. They were crowded, but did a good job getting... more

Good ice cream and lots of options! The service at Scoops is fast and friendly! There was a long line when we arrived and we were ordering within just a couple of minutes. Outside and inside seating available. We would definitely visit again! more

Ice cream was good, however, they use Edy's brand, though good, can still be found at a Grocery Store. Price was average. Staff was friendly. On a hot day, especially, experience was very good. more
