This place is awesome. The customer service is 1000%!!!! It’s a fun and unique place that is very reasonably priced. They serve Blue Bell ice cream and have plenty of options to choose from as well as a gazillion topping options. The play area has so many toy and game options for the kids to play with. My kids had a blast. This is DEFINITELY a place to visit again and again!
I’ve been here a couple times, staff is absolutely amazing. Most recent visit I dropped my ice cream because I don’t look where i walk. I was pretty devastated, went back and they gave me a new cone for free. Melted my heart and made my day!!!! Will always recommend them and continue to come back, thanks again :)
Amazing shop! The place is so cool and has a very homey feeling. The owner, at least the one I got to meet and talk to, is very nice and proud of his collection.This looks like the kind of place I would have loved to stop by every single day. They have toys for you to play with and a lot of collector items to look at, but dont touch please.*Just look with your eyes*Love the place and hope that it remains there for another 17 years and way more!
This was such an amazing experience. The ice cream is delicious, but the employees are top notch! Well keep going back. If youre craving something youve got to try this place.
Amazing location to have your favorite ice creams along with all your favorite toppings!! The crew working at the moment were very friendly and fun to talk with! Also, board games are available to play your favorite games with ice cream!
What a hidden gem! Half of the place is a play area for kids and the rest of the place is divided between a line of ice cream flavors and few places to sit. The walls are COVERED in amazing memorabilia from every era and you definitely get that old time vibe. And the ice cream selection is great! My girlfriend looks everywhere for the brides cake ice cream flavor and they had it! Plus there are plenty of topping options, and the owner is fantastic to chat with.Definitely recommend stopping in!
I was taken here as a surprise, and I was not disappointed at all. Seeing all of the collectables, old books, signed photos, old-school toys, books, and games so cool. Theres even a guest book at the front for anyone to sign 😁 10/10 recommend

Best ice cream in town. The atmosphere is great.
Such an amazing little shop to visit. The staff is beyond nice they made the fam and I feel right at home. I liked the different kinds of ice cream they carried. A must stop and bring the kids as the shop is filled with all sorts of toys.
Excellent place. Fun and interesting owner. Bestest ever milkshakes! Delicious....its so worth it to stop by and enjoy the best ice cream, family flavor and combo history place Ever!!!
Best ice cream place in the city! Excellent service! Bill, the owner was an amazing host. Thank you!
Such a cute hole in the wall with memorabilia throughout the entire shop. Great ice cream and sorbet. Bill, the owner, is a sweat heart and goes out of his way for you to have a great experience. Will definitely come again next time we are in the area!
Fun Ice Cream place! The owner, Bill, is an absolute wonderful man and makes going to get ice cream a wonderful experience. He does amazing things for the community and truly loves people. My daughter is unable to talk and instead of ignoring her or treating her badly he treated her like a valued human and loved on her. We had her 5th Birthday here and it was a wonderful time!
This is the coolest ice cream shop you’ll ever go to! Bill was so personal, kind, and funny. He is the grandpa everyone wants to have! The ice cream is delicious and there are tons of flavor options.The shop is full of awesome toys, games, and random memorabilia. If I’m ever driving though Albuquerque again, I would 100% go out of my way to stop here. We loved it!!
Must go!! The best part is the owner...what a genuine lovely human...then there is the nostalgia all over the shop...and the ice cream. You get 3 kinds for every size! Creamy ice cream!! Great place! Support this small business!!
What great ice cream & coffee shop. The owner bill is delightful and quick witted. So many collectibles throughout.
I dont know what it is about their ice cream but I have not tasted anything like it! I got blackberry cobbler ice cream and was recommended to add peach ice cream too. Added raspberry sauce and whipped cream and who knew ice cream could be so decadent! My niece got cotton candy ice cream and it was so good and didnt have a weird chemical aftertaste like other ice cream shops. Compared to I scream I scream all the bigger ice cream chains ice cream tastes cheap. The ice cream that I scream I scream offers has a quality that is unmatched! They could totally charge more and Id be glad to pay it! If you go to any other ice cream shop youll pay more and wont get the quality that I scream I scream has! Treat yourself while supporting local small businesses!
This place is a gem! Like others have mentioned its a real life Ispy book! You will be entertained the entire time just looking around while eating some great ice cream. No more Baskin Robbins or Cold Stone for me! Bill even went out of his way to make my nieces feel extra special with some extra candy! I recommend the raspberry chocolate chunk with raspberry sauce, delicious.
Great place to enjoy a double scoop of your favorite flavor. Owner extra cool!
I cant recommend a place any more! If you want a local place with a fun atmosphere and friendly staff look no further. I have two girls and this is their favorite spot for a quick sweet treat. Skip the rest and go with the local best, I scream ice cream is a local gem.
A beautiful little place. Full of Bills toys, books, memorabilia, and goodwill. A midtown Albuquerque classic.
An absolutely sublime locale with its delicious assortment of ice cream and its wonderfully rustic style. I can absolutely see why this won best of 2019 in abq.
Absolutely everything all the reviews say. The owner Warren, overheard me say it was my first visit and made it a point to welcome me. I tried the cookie dough, chocolate and mint chocolate chip, all were delicious. The hot fudge topping was the best I’ve ever had, the real deal. Price was perfect for a heaping small cup. I can’t wait until it’s fully open after Covid to really get to enjoy the experience of the eclectic decor and vibe. Would’ve stayed longer but two huge families came in and it got packed! Definitely the place to go in Albuquerque for ice cream. If you’re driving through, it’s right off the freeway- a must stop! Fantastic experience :)
Great quality. Generous servings. Very personable staff and owner.
This place is the the definition of a family owned restaurant and why we all should support it. My father passed away but before he did he wanted to see his new great granddaughter eat macaroni and cheese, and drink a chocolate malt. He didn’t get the malt so after the funeral we called I Scream for Ice Cream and asked for 15 malts. Bill the owner asked what they were for and we told him. When my daughter went to pick them up, not only did he make additional one for my dad he threw in a few more. Bill was worried about how we would get them home so he gave us his personal cooler to transport them in. This is the definition of family owned and operated. Bill and Will, thank you so much for your generosity and for making this day a little brighter. My family wants to put a shout out to anyone/everyone to support this business and it’s owners and have a chocolate malt!!
The guy that runs the place is really sweet. Ice cream is good. I buy Superman by the pint.I like supporting local businesses like this one.
OMG this place is amazing! The... stuff and fun things to look at are entrancing, great toys and games for all ages, but the ice cream.... WOW! tons of flavors and toppings for a great price. I had never heard of Superman, apparently it tastes like the milk thats left after you eat fruit loops cereal. It was a total childhood flashback and was delicious! Cant wait to go back. The gentleman was so nice and funny, and the menus being taped to stuffed animals was so cute!
Amazing and super fun!! Everywhere you look there is an old collectors item, antique toys, or piece of memorabilia. The guy behind the counter was wonderful!
Great tasting ice cream with Wonderful service and more to see than your eyes can take in with just one visit. I will be back.
Very unique ice cream shop! Loved everything! Best aesthetic and great prices!!!
Cutest ice cream shop in ABQ! the ice cream is so delicious and the interior of the shop is so fun and creative!!
We had so much fun visiting. We chatted with the owner. It was a awesome stop for ice cream on a hot day!
Its an eclectic and fantastic back to the future yummy trip blast of the past.👍
Its like going to meow wolf with mister Rogers. So much fun. I love to meet friends there for a cup of ice cream and a game. There is always something to look at or mess with. There is a kids area in back and the front is for adults, and children accompanied by adults. The one rule is that ice cream stays on the tables. The ice cream is really affordable and there are a lot of good flavors.
So many options to pick from! The ice cream was delicious, the owner was very helpful and welcoming and the decor and games were whimsical. I will be telling everyone about this place.
Absolutely friendly service, ultimately unique place for a hot dog, chips and ice cream :)
The coolest place to take kids for ice cream. The owner is amazing and treats everyone like family.
Best Ice cream in town! Great toys for the kids and the nicest staff. Love it here!
Great local hangout for the toddlers. Come play. Best place for freyed parents to catch their breath.
A BuzzFeed article (for best ice cream in each state) lead us here, and it didnt disappoint! Wow. Its a feast for the senses: so much paraphernalia on the walls, fun for kids and adults, and the ice cream was great too! The proprietor chatted us up in such a friendly way. We had a great time; its impossible not to!
A place where parents can chill and kids can be kids…with really good ice cream options and more toppings than I can recall.
Great place! Great environment! Kids loved it.
Amazing experience. Highly recommend if your in the area. Would definitely visit again if in the area.
Fantastic atmosphere,really funny,friendly staff,the decor is worth visiting just by itself,like a time capsule/ice cream shop.n
Love Bill and love this place. Seriously considering having my 30th birthday party here in a couple years. Family friendly, great ice cream flavors and toppings to choose from. Bill is such a sweetheart the way he connects with all his customers. This is a serious vintage collectors shop and for a 90s kid like me, I love the nostalgia of it all.
Fun, cool place to take the kids for ice cream with an Eclectic variety of novelty items all over there store.
We were told that we were going to a surprise place for dessert on Father’s Day. It was a surprise and a delight. Highly Recommended!
This man was the nicest man I’ve ever met. Great place for kids and family. Great selection of ice cream. Great sense of humor. This is truely a five star establishment. Reasonable prices. Definitely coming back.
Love this place for all the different varieties of ice cream and toppings the but ice cream and toppings besides the fact that they are the nicest people you will ever meet

Such A Fun, Relaxin, Family Friendly Atmosphere❣️The Owner Is The Sweetest Old Man!
Anytime I am in town, I Scream Ice Cream is on my priority list of places to visit. Not only is the ice cream phenomenal resulting in my taste buds having a fireworks party, but the ambience is one of a kind! My eyes could wonder for hours with the shop space being so unique, that uniqueness can be found on the walls, ceiling or among the friendly people! Bill is the friendliest and has a heart for the community and children. PLEASE VISIT and have a laugh for me. I cannot wait until my next visit!!
Nice ice cream shop that is great fun inside. Lots of flavors available and staff are always friendly
Good small place scooping out delicious ice cream 🍨🍦 All your favorites in one place.
Okay so I haven’t had superman ice cream since I was a kid so that was a trip down ice cream nostalgia lane (which is incidentally the best lane to travel down). Also, the guy who owns it is the best, played us some Ed Sullivan show and gave us hope for humanity again.
Best place ever! Great ice cream! Great owners! Great service! Great toys!
Above and beyond kind, and very very good chocolate malts too. Can not say enough good about the ice cream or the owner, truly wonderful.
Best mom and pop homemade ice cream shop in ABQ. Best customer service a person can get
Amazing. Amazing place, amazing staff, amazing ice cream. Unassuming, unpretentious and delightful. Will absolutely be back!
The owner is a comedian and on a down day always makes ya smile ! Plus the ice cream best in the 505 😇
Sweetest man there can be. All the wonderful vintage toys and games are the best. So many options of ice cream and toppings to choose from. Been coming here since I was little 🍬
Awesome ice cream! Great things to look at and fun service!! Love this place!
Locally owned by a very nice man who loves to make the customers feel welcomed. Delicious hand made and unique ice cream flavors. The store itself is so much fun. Lots and lots of vintage toys, images and items to remind of the old soda fountains. Kids love it and adults feel like kids while there.
Decent ice cream. The owner is awesome and was very friendly.
Our favorite Ice cream place, Bill is always so nice and welcoming!
I love this place. The owner is the kindest man that Ive ever met. He attends to his young customers with the same courtesy as an adult customer. He takes the time to have a conversation with each of them and make them feel special. I love this place. 10000 Stars
Family friendly environment, great customer service.
A charming, old fashioned ice cream shop with generous portions and always service with a smile and some humor!
Wonderful ☺️ place for 🍨 ice cream and atmosphere! The service was excellent. We will definitely return again.
