Awesome black owned ice cream shop right in Hartford! They’re open until 9, which came in clutch. All sorts of flavors and toppings. Really impressed with the options and very affordable prices.

Love this place so much!!!!! Staff super friendly. Best ice cream around. Always a pleasure. My fav little sit down and cool off spot on Capitol. Definitely worth a trip to see it if you are far and if your local....your welcome ... Cuz you are going to thank me once you stop in. It will be your new best friend.

I got to try their mint chip ice cream last weekend. It was DELICIOUS. Super creamy with chunks of chocolate with the perfect amount t of mint. The staff was super friendly and made ordering a breeze.

Incredible selection of ice creams, so many unique flavors and toppings and reasonably priced. The owner is warm and welcoming and the settings/decor is cozy. I also love the pup cups they have for my lil pup. They also recently added a soft serve (in cup and cone form) and it’s a total game changer!

What a cute little shop! Everyone was super friendly, and I found this place to be really unique with the beautiful flavor listings and outside of the shop. I enjoyed my scoops of black raspberry chip and chocolate. The waffle cone wasn’t bad, though I’ve had better, and I always enjoy ice cream made by Big Dipper. Definitely worth a visit when in the area!

What a cute ice cream shop located in Hartford CT. Various unique flavors along with the classics... I followed them on instagram, I'm a sucker for local owned businesses. And this one happens to be woman owned!!!! The shop is nicely decorated with bright colors and ice cream themed. The staff is so friendly. Street parking is available. But in walking distance from parking garage and food options. And if you like to walk your calories off you can always walk to Bushnell Park after. I was there for yelp elite event called scoops and shades. I ordered a 3 scoop on a cone. I ordered. Strawberry lemonade, birthday cake and green cookie dough... the one that I was wondering what it would taste like and if I would like it turned out to be my favorite which was strawberry lemonade. And green cookie dough most likely taste better than just regular cookie dough. Lol birthday cake tasted just like cake.. Whenever I'm in hartford. And want desert I'll definitely be stopping in!!!

This little ice cream shop is a gem in Hartford’s Frog Hollow neighborhood, right next to Story and Soil Coffee shop (another wonderful place to check out). The owners are incredibly friendly and welcoming, the decor is fun and colorful, and best of all the ice cream is delicious. The mint chocolate chip is so refreshing and the chocolate peanut butter is filled with waves of peanut butter. They have lots of options for everyone; ice cream, dairy free flavors, milkshakes, Sunday’s, and slushees. The place opened in June 2018 so if you haven’t been yet definitely check them out!

Very cute shop with unique and delicious flavors and options! Chocolate dipped waffle bowl yummm. 4 stars just because of the small interior space, you can’t really stay in and eat your ice cream. That’s fine in the summer and on warm days, but in the fall and winter it could be an issue.

I’ve been following Capital Ice Cream for a while on social and just recently had the opportunity to order an ice cream cake for my step-daughter’s birthday. From ordering to pick up, the whole experience was flawless and the end result was exactly what my step-daughter asked for. I can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the ice cream and maybe a milkshake.

Abigail Wilcox

It was a delightful little shop down on Capital. There was a huge selection of cones and ice cream flavors. All of the staff was amazing, greeted us like we were the only customers there, talked with the kids and generally left us all with a feeling of coming home. I highly recommended visiting and supporting this local ice cream shop!

Josh Eskridge

It’s exciting the downtown finally has an ice cream shop! The staff is very friendly! The flavors are creative with plenty of add ons available. I got the birthday cake ice cream in a chocolate dipped waffle bowl with a brownie added on top. I highly recommend this place!

Katie Byers

Ice cream was so good. Their signature cream was a green chocolate chip cookie dough. We arrived as they were closing up (we’re talking 7:59 when they close at 8) but they were patient enough to still serve us. I would absolutely recommend this adorable shop!

Aidan Ely

I may be biased because I just had day one of the bar exam but this was amazing in a hot summer day to chill and have a great ice cream.

Cydonie Brown

Delicious ice cream, but it was hectic. I will go again

Great little spot tucked away in Hartford's capital area. Went with my wife on a scorching hot August day. I got the Oreo ice cream and she got the birthday cake ice cream. Both were creamy and delicious. They both also had a good amount of mix ins but not too much where you can't taste the base. Everyone inside was super friendly. They had a cute little sitting area outside where we enjoyed our treats. Overall a great experience.

Ja Kr

The service was friendly, the portion size was decent, and the ice cream was very good but not great. This is tucked away in a kind of odd area of Hartford, but it's worth heading out there. It's always good to have a variety of ice cream options, and I'm glad this is nearby.

Ramona Anderson

The ice cream is extremely good! Rich, with lots of flavor options. They offer all the bells and whistles but I prefer a cup of what ever flavor I'm in the mood for that day. Loved their coffee ice cream! On good weather days, they offer outside seating. Definitely worth the stop.

Lainie Foerster

Delicious ice cream and great service!

Shae Elyse

The portion sizes are great and they always put the toppings on the side when being delivered....so, you don't get ice cream that's been melted during delivery when hot fudge has been added. The ice cream is good! I definitely prefer Capital over Carvel and Baskin Robbins.

Friendly staff. Good prices. Local. Plenty of patio space for reading a new book borrowed from the Hartford Public Library.

henri mathieu

Cecily Yeager

Customer service is incredible - AND AWESOME ICECREAM! I ordered a pint and a cone. Chantell (the owner) offered to put the pint in the freezer while I enjoyed my ice cream. The exterior and interior are exquisitely decorated, it's a pleasure just to be inside and look around. Can't wait to come back!

Alyssa Boran

This place is awesome! Chocolate covered cherries on top, flavored whipped cream. The artwork inside is beautiful. The best ice cream place I've been to!

Super creamy, flavorful ice cream, much in the vein of Oberweis (if you're from the Chicago area). Crazy affordable, too -- two scoops for less than $5!
