Lick serves up delicious ice creams that never make you feel fat or bad that youre eating a cheat snack. Each flavor is a blend of savory ingredients that youd not expect to see in an ice cream parlor. Theres a full menu of regular and seasonal favorites making everything freshly created and uniquely flavored. You can order inside or through their taco out window. Definitely stop by when youre exploring the Pearl.
They have a wonderful variety of flavors. You can pick 2 flavors in the small size. Some flavors are there all the time (like coffee with cream), and some are seasonal (like mocha). I had both in my tasty waffle cone. The mocha was great, but the coffee with cream was bland. My friend’s vanilla with honey was a soft mix of flavors, but the seasonal bourbon pecan had too much cinnamon. All in all, it was a good experience. They took Apple Pay.
I don’t tend to try new things but I’m glad I did! Staff was very friendly and helpful, offered us to try the flavors and I ended up choosing goat cheese & thyme and the Texas sheet cake. They have a pretty good selection of flavors!
I thought it was a fun experience here. Unique flavors, made with local ingredients. Its considered artisanal so its going to be more money and smaller portions compared to typical ice cream parlors. But my review is based on the uniqueness of the flavors and my experience. I got their goat cheese/thyme/honey, the roasted beets and mint and fresh mint and chocolate chunks. I really loved the goat cheese and honey!!! And it was just really nice to sit outside and enjoy it with my family.
Been here twice now. Its definitely a boutique creamery. Matched with the expensive nature of the Pearl shopping area. In the end, its ice cream and its good.
What a lucky find. Really went out of the box with my flavor choices, and was absolutely floored by how accurate and stellar the flavor profiles were. My friend tasted my goat cheese and thyme, and went back up after he was finished with his for a full serving of it. You know its good when you go for seconds!
Not your grandfathers ice cream parlor... literally walked in, looked at the flavors and walked out. i just wanted a chocolate ice cream with milk from a cow, but instead vegan everything and weird choices.
Their ice cream is exciting because they have many interesting combinations. Some flavors are good and some are hid or miss. You have to try to know lol Overall a great fun place to eat ice cream at the Pearl. After trying different flavors, I stick with coffee and cream, vanilla, and chocolate flavors.
Amazing ice cream, super cute store, and great price for the quality of the ice cream! I had the Texas Sheet Cake flavor and the Dark Chocolate with Olive Oil and Sea Salt (I believe is what it was called); both were amazing. The Lavender flavor is also delicious. Great place to go before leaving the Pearl or just want a nice summer treat!
Nice little ice cream shop inside the Pearl brewery area. Ice cream has its unique flavors and combinations but overall it was very good. My kids left bowls clean .
Ice cream is delicious for non-dairy lovers (or needers like myself)! Hard to find creamy ice-cream that us non-dairy and they sis the spot. LOVE the small homemade waffle cones. Found s place where I can ❤ ice cream again! 🍦 🤗
Ice cream was excellent. Even the weird flavors. Peach rosemary was amazing. The blackberry basil was great. Blueberry crumble, coffee with cream and Texas sheet cake were other flavors our group had and loved. Really all of it. Love that its all quality ingredients. My daughter loved both vegan flavors she had - chocolate chocolate and caramel cream. Also love that you can sample whatever flavors you want. 2 scoops for $4.99, 3 scoops for $6 something and 4 scoops for $7 something.
Great flavors of ice cream. Several selections with some very different flavors such as Texas sheet cake! Friendly service and pricing is on point. A good stop if your at the Pearl and need some cool refreshment
Magically delicious! This seems like a shop that should have been featured on the Cooking Channels Unique Sweets show. Im a ride-or-die vanilla and chocolate and usually wont consider any other options, especially ones that are fruit based. However, the flavor combinations here were so interesting, I couldnt help but step outside my comfort zone. Highly recommend the blueberry crumble and and the goat cheese and thyme. The ice cream -- made locally -- also has a unique texture, halfway between frozen yogurt and shaved ice. Very happy to see that Lick is doing their part to help the environment with compostable bowls and utensils. Please support this small business -- and expand it across the country!!
What a wonderful place! The flavors were amazing and the staff friendly and helpful. Such a different taste than store-bought ice cream. Its like when you go to Europe and have fruit juice-and its tasty but also really strange-and you have to remind yourself that this is ACTUALLY what its supposed to taste like-and the stuff you have at home, normally, is whats weird.
Who would have ever thought that vegan chocolate ice cream was going to be so good. For those of you who are lactose intolerant or we just cant have or choose not to have any dairy products displeased is definitely recommended for its chocolate vegan ice cream. Hope you all enjoy.
Flew from Cali to visit this place because I had been told it was the best ice cream in San Antonio. They are honest about one thing, they are honest about how much they are taking you for your money. Ice cream flavors are generic, and the prices should reflect the quality, not in this case. If you have a craving for ice cream, just go to the local store. I understand the entire hipster and alternative vibe they are going for with their employees, but they should put that energy on better ice cream. Two cows out of four.
This place is the best I go there for their dairy free ice cream enjoy going with the grandkids at least twice a month.
Interesting adult flavors and Incredibly over priced based on my experience. I cant say That I would recommend this.
Amazing! The only thing that I didnt like was having to choose two flavors, knowing I wouldnt be back anytime soon. The staff was very helpful - and patient - and helped me choose an amazing combination. This will be a regular stop when Im in San Antonio.
Theyve got a ton of great flavors, from dependable chocolates and vanillas done really well to some very interesting ones, like beet and mint or lavender crisp. Too many to choose from. I ended up getting a waffle cone with a scoop of cilantro lime and Lady Bird lavender crisp, both of which were light and refreshing and tasted exactly like the flavors they said they were.
Wanted to try the Fluffernutter but they were all out 😭 So they recommended another summer flavor Back Porch Iced Tea. I tried it, I have a new favorite!!! Definitely recommend if youre a fan of boba milk tea! 🧋
Lots of good flavors and is a favorite spot for me and my boyfriend to grab a few scoops. The staff are always super friendly.
The Mint and Chocolate chunk flavor was exceptional. Mint tasted like fresh mint leaves. Great texture and flavor, also the waffle cone is very good!
The homemade waffle cones are amazing but if Im being honest the ice cream fell short of my expectations. They have unique flavors which I was excited to try i got a few to try and each flavor was very subtle so just be mindful of that. I still think they are a great ice cream place but in my opinion not that amazing
My favorite by far is their chocolate with olive and sea salt. I dont know who decided to add olive oil to ice cream, but it is amazing! The olive oil gives the chocolate a more smooth taste and the sea salt helps with the sweetness of the chocolate. If you are looking for something different, they also sell ice cream sandwiches which Ive heard are pretty good.
I personally didnt like the taste of the ice cream. I tried several of them and all of them were personally nasty to me.Another thing was that they didnt allow to try the taste because we were there for the first time and majority of their flavors are ones Id never seen.
Excellent ice cream but really no place to sit inside. Of course the prices are for a touristic zone, but the ice cream is really good.
Delicious! Super friendly staff! I bought a t shirt and had an amazing sundae!
Upside very good taste.Downside craving does not end.
My wife and I usually go to the Pearl on a weekly basis and after dinner we stopped by this place around 10:20 PM. (Friday, 25 June 21).I was on line for several minutes and right before my turn came up a group a people came in and the lady there offered to take their order and I told her right away that I was the next customer in line and not them. She completely ignored me didn’t say anything at all and started working the order given by the group behind me. I was obviously disturbed by the way this situation was being handled so I left for less than a minute to regroup and not to address this situation in a disrespectful way. I went back in and told the lady that her customer service skills left a lot to desire and the very least she could have acknowledged me and rectified herself as I was leaving she was laughing to the very same group of people that came in after me. What a disrespectful way to treat your customers!! Unbelievable!!
This ice cream is on another level! Never have I tasted ice cream that appears to be made within a few days. Caramel Salt Lick & Blueberry crumble will make you have a seat so you can finish it in peace :)
Good ice cream. Wonderful choice for vegans that can make people allergic to milk happy.
My favorite ice cream place ever! Because, how can you not love amazing ice cream flavors, local ingredients, and in-season fruit?! Love their easy-to-get-to location in The Pearl. Always bright, colorful, and clean. Staff is great. My top picks are the beet & mint, Texas sheet cake, caramel salt lick. Season faves are sugar cookie, gingerbread, horchata.
Let me just say WOW! Like seriously! Such lovely, creamy, delicious and light ice cream! The flavors were so original, fresh and not too overpowering. We tried 3 flavors - lemon lavender, loquat margarita, sea salt caramel in a waffle bowl - and loved all of them!Definitely must try and total value for money!
The ice cream is very good, very creamy, and some of the flavors are pretty strange like basil or Rosemary but somehow they make the flavors worth with the ice cream. Service is a bit slow but polite and the staff seem to be knowledgeable.
An honest to goodness worth finding ice cream shop. Creative choices. You’ll be back again.
This place is legendary!! High quality ice cream and one of the best in the nation. The vanilla, salted caramel, mint chip just top notch. Cannot go wrong here. I highly recommend this shop.
Nice place and concept but not my taste in flavors. I’d recommend everyone to go though just to try it.
A place with not one STRAWBERRY 🍓 FLAVOR IS NOT WORTH GOING IM STICKING TO B & R. They still are #1
Love this place. Just outside thier side/ back door is a ATM so that you can get some cash. There is other places to eat around it like a Veggie resturant and a Mexican resturant. So you can eat dinner and then go to The Lick for so much also Ice Cream. Best Ice Cream I have tasted in San Antonio, Tx. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a awesome treat. Enjoy.
We came to this spot because it had the highest rating for Ice-cream nearby. Flavors are not worth the price. Neither of us finished a scoop of the ice-creams we bought.
Super unique flavors, which I love. Good place to go if youve had a big meal and want something sweet as a palate cleanser as portions are small.
Service was great. Even though there was a long line behind me, the person assisting me was not rushing me. Best ice cream!
Lick Honest Ice CreamSan Antonio, TX$**For more reviews follow my insta @dish_360The Good: This is the best ice cream Ive had in SA. LHIC is known for using locally sourced ingredients and it shows in their product. The texture they achieved was absolutely incredible. Easily the smoothest ice cream Ive ever had. (Nearly rivaled the consistency of gelato.) More importantly, the flavors they offered were unique and had depth. Great flavor profile for each scoop. My favorites were the hill country honey w/vanilla bean and the dark chocolate, olive oil w/sea salt.Bonus: Happy to see that they used ecofriendly bowls and utensils.👏The Bad: You might run into a line here. Ive said it before and Ill say it a again. Lines are not a bad thing. Good food is worth the wait.Aftermath: Excited to try more from here. Love the area too so if you have a free day go explore and grab a scoop.**For more reviews follow my insta @dish_360
Fantastic ice cream with several amazing vegan options for those in your party who need to be dairy free. The staff are also super friendly!
Could be either cheaper OR bigger servings.Taste good with unique flavor profiles.
Pretty damn good! I had horchata and the chocolate chocolate went well together
Great ice cream! Flavors typically seen outside the US or in gourmet restaurants
Amazing ice cream with great service!!! Would highly recommend
Very good ice cream, kinda pricy.
Great ice cream place. Lots of variety and flavors. Gets pretty pricy though. Any flavor is good. Just a warning; this place gets bussy anytime after 5 or 6. Overall really good ice cream.
Meh. Their icecream was mediocre, and overpriced.
This place has amazing ice cream! Best mint flavor I’ve ever had! ☺️ My boyfriend got the confetti one and loved it too. It would get 5 stars but it sucks that they have a to-go window without any to-go cups. Makes no sense! PLEASE get lids/proper containers soon!
Vanilla + Honey -airy and perfect amount of sweetness.Fresh Mint -fresh and very rich chocolate.We got the smallest possible scoop and were glad we did because we didn’t even finish it. Delicious, just very flavorful.
They have some crazies ice cream flavor, i love my chocolate chips cone!
Try a seasonal favor and the floats. Refreshing
Very good quality ice cream. A good stop after a nice evening of dining in the Pearl
I have tried almost all the flavors, and I can say that they are really delicious
Artisan Ice Cream at its best. Delicious flavors to choose from and it is served in an honest portion. The small is a great portion, but if you want a variety of flavors share a large with some friends. The menu is easy to read and you can sample any of their flavors. The seasonal menu is always an adventure. 🍦 🍨
The weekends are crazy do the weekdays hey having a healthy treat that is tasty is a beneficial for all of us
The quality of ice cream is very good, my little sister loves it. Delicious and very tasty.
