Nicecream

This is my first time here and it was amazing! I had so many questions because the flavors are so unique. My friends and I wanted a snack and saw a phenomenal experiment. The ice cream is frozen using liquid nitrogen. Emarja provided wonderful customer service and answered all of my questions! I’m definitely coming back!!

This ice cream is great. Never have I seen ice cream made fresh to order with liquid nitrogen. The staff was really cool and the restaurant was very nice and clean with huge windows. They offer custom ice cream sandwiches with fresh baked cookies, which I thought was cool. They also have a decent drink selection.

This is Nicecream's second ice cream shop in Washington, D.C. located in The Shay building. They whip up nitrogen ice cream of all flavors and it's so fun to watch the ice steam emerge from the ice cream makers. If you love chocolate, order the nutella ice cream. It tastes just like it! They also sell coffee and several other baked goods like brownies! If you love ice cream, it's definitely one to stop by and try!

The Samoa ice cream is the Girl Scout cookie-ice cream hybrid of your dreams. The shop is cute and clean and it's always nice to know there's liquid nitrogen in your dessert! It’s a bit small, and the tables are a bit tiny and I can see the place getting crowded on a hot summer day. It was empty when we went though, and the service was great and friendly! Would recommend.

Everyone knows my addiction to ice cream, it’s my favorite food, I eat it before my meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner. I love to try a new ice cream place wherever we go but nicecream wasn’t nice to me. We googled a place that was open in the area and this one looked Instagrammable enough, OPEN until 11pm. We parked 20 mins before 11 pm but had to wait a good 5 mins because of a phone call and it was 10:48 when we finally walked through the door excited to have some nicecream. We were not nicely greeted just told we could only buy pints, I thought “ok maybe they are out of cones” I asked if we could have 2 flavors and she said “no you have to pick from this list, we are about to close” so yeah it was too close to closing and she wanted to go home not work so she would only sell Pre packed pints. We said thank you and walked away to a place that did want our business. You’ve been warned, do not come here if it’s close to closing time.

We absolutely love Nice Cream! This fresh, handmade ice cream that is flash frozen with nitrogen right before your eyes is delicious. The creative flavors at Nice Cream change weekly. This week, the Shaw location is featuring a variety of Girl Scout cookie inspired flavors such as Samoas and Tagalogs as well as Bananas Foster, Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt and Vanilla with Chocolate Chunk. In addition to the weekly flavors that change, they keep a consistent variety of hand dipped pints of their fan favorites.

Ok So😜this place was an unexpected treat. I walked in with no prior info on what to expect. Short menu ,which most of the time means really good and there were options for coffee and hot chocolate. This pic is the Butter Toffee Pecan and Mexican hot chocolate. Both were flippin’ delicious. The woman behind the counter was hella helpful and it’s definitely exciting to see the smoke from the nitrogen (get it NItrogen-NIcecream) they add to make the frozen deliciousness. It’s dense not airy like regular ice cream and still creamy too.This was delightful and you’ll really enjoy it.
