What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I good could on & on about how good Big Spoon is! Their ice cream is my favorite and the staff are always so friendly and welcoming! Magic city is my favorite and I wish it was a year around staple. I’m sad they didn’t have the georgia nell pecan pie last fall because that is my absolute favorite from the fall season menu…bring it back pretty please :)!"
"I had one of the best sundaes I have ever had in my entire life… and I mean it! It was spectacular! I have been several times but this time I decided to get the little spoon and I got it with the tiramisu ice cream and it had this amazing caramel on top with coffee flavored whip cream and bits of toffee on top all above a warm brownie! What a wonderful thing it is to experience when someone puts care and craft into creating a dish - you can tell in every bite someone thought of every detail of how to make it the best it could be. The staff are also very friendly and the area is a vibe to be in."
"I was circling back to the Coconut Lime & Sea Salt flavor, topped with olive oil. Total bummer that it’s no longer available. I was completely hooked. You can expect only two vegan flavors in rotation, that change periodically, with 1 being a sorbet. I prefer cream based ice cream. Today I tried their (V) Berry Crisp & Blueberry Cheesecake. The ice cream is delicious, and possibly worth trying again. The prices however, are a bit extreme."
"Very mixed coming out of this. The ice cream was by far the best I’ve ever had but goodness are the prices rough. I understand the pricing being a small local place with small batch ice creams but $11 for a milkshake just for it to be that small was a difficult pill to swallow, quality aside. I tried the breakup cookie milkshake and had it not Been for the price I would have turned around and got another. My partner had the June Coffee milkshake with caramel, it was hands down the best coffee flavor ice cream I’ve had in my whole life. The inside environment was incredible sterile and felt like a hospital, this is all personal preference going forward but I cared in no way for the decoration, or lack thereof. I just didn’t feel like the sterile all white minimalist design suited an ice cream spot, especially one of this caliber. All in all I would and will go back I just hope in the course of finding their legs they can come down on the prices just a bit and maybe liven up the decor. I have high hopes and nothing but love for this place and their vision and I hope I can increase my rating in the future!!"
"Who knew sweet corn flavored ice cream could be good? Our family stopped in while in Birmingham. We absolutely loved. Trying different unique flavors. The staff were so helpful. And everything tasted delicious!"
"Awesome little coffee shop, great vibe. Right next to Big Spoon Creamery in Avondale. I ordered from their seasonal menu and had to laugh at the "put it in..."
