Reviews of Captain Sam's Ice Cream
Umair Ishaq Khan
Excellent flavors and options! The peanut butter cookie dough was as incredible as it sounds. The coffee flavor is fantastic too!
Randolph J.
Every time we are in town, we make sure to come here. Every time, they are super friendly and helpful. They were even about to close and stayed around a few extra minutes so that we could get a last-minute sweet treat! The price is definitely worth the quality of the desserts.
Sarah Ellis
Umm, yeah, ice cream, heck yeah it was good! And a sweet treat to go along with that delicious ice cream! Perfect spot to top off our evening!
Paul J. Manning
Great little ice cream shop, freshly made right on the premises. Traditional and unique flavors to be had. The servings were generous and the quality extremely high. Another water front gem here on Commercial Street with great staff which I’ll highly recommend.
antony stromsky
Nice selection and tasty ice cream!
Mr Chickie
Creamiest ice cream I've ever had. Definitely try the sea biscuit!
The two scoop option is so worth it - you get two GIANT scoops. You can't even see the first scoop below since it's entirely covered by the second scoop.
Jasna Acharya
Decent ice cream and chocolate shop. I recommend the pumpkin ginger snap ice cream and cashew milk chocolate turtle.
Bryan Wohlwend
The ice cream was delicious and there was a good variety of flavors to choose from as well. The portion sizes were gigantic!! Definitely a great value. Staff was friendly as well. We would go back for sure.
James
Waffle cone with sea biscuit and blueberry! Great shop with plenty of flavors
Jennifer Chatle
This ice cream is so thick and rich. I have never had to chew ice cream before. I had salty caramel, others in my party had coconut chip and black raspberry. All were great. Wonderful way to end the evening.
Paul Meicke
Best ice cream in town, hands down. I wish the overall flavor assortment was better but what I tried was very good both times.
Alexander Imhof
Tried the Lucky Charms and the Blueberry ice cream! Both were fantastic but the blueberry really stood out, it even had real blueberries in it! May just be one of the best scoops of ice cream I've had!
Douglas Dunn
BIG scoops. They have a flavor called "Sea Biscuit"...it doesn't taste like a horse (Dad Joke)
Claire Larkins
Really great ice cream! Got the chocolate chip cookie dough here.
Eric B
They have a lot of good ice cream flavours, many of which are unique to the area. It's all handmade and they have a souvenir area inside too.
The reason for the average rating is for price (very expensive) and atmosphere. If they removed some souvenir material they could do bench seating. However, they provide no eating area for patrons.
Montana Galvan
So good! The little Lobster chocolate things are adorable. Best place to get ice cream and walk around in the sun
Debby
Little space with BIG flavors. Absolutely 🧡🧡🧡 the pumpkin ice cream and the staff was friendly! …
Daniella Ahdout Horn
Really cute shop, delicious homemade ice cream, and most flavors are kosher! (Just ask to see the certification) all the employees were super nice and patient as they helped our large group with many young kids. Thanks guys!
KL
I loved going here! The staff here are really nice and generous with their ice cream servings.
For a single scoop for $3, it's a lot of ice cream!!
Ayon Ibrahim
Lots of flavor options, generous portions, and super friendly staff!
xiang cindy han
Love the blueberry ice cream and blueberry soda. Highly recommend it. You must try!!!!
Rob S
This is a decent ice cream shop at a great location on the waterfront. Fast and courteous service with an alright selection of flavors. The ‘Sea Biscuit’ vanilla and biscoff ice cream was delicious.
Benjamin van der Horst
Delicious homemade ice cream with some unique flavors. I had M&M which was incredible.
Briana Burris
Had second thoughts about this being a tourist trap, based on the ideal location… we later described our salty Carmel and blackberry ice cream as a religious experience. Unbelievably good.
Paulo
Amazing ice cream. However, the chocolate looked better than it tasted. Nice environment.
Arun Chopra
Nice ice cream place near the water in Old Port.
Try the blueberry ice cream... It's Maine!
Austin Sprague
I stopped in because the owner gave my construction crew a free ice cream certificate to Sam's ice cream. I went in a week or so later got one of their homemade ice creams and it was delicious. I've not been since but I definitely intend to go back and I would recommend this ice cream shop to others.
Troy Hollihan
The ice cream was super smooth and yummy. Right now only one group is allowed in at once, but it's worth the wait. All their chocolates and confections look amazing get some for me when you're there!!
Ansley Hartman
Decent ice cream. Slightly overpriced. Gets five stars for the cute guys working when I went.
Tommy Justice
We came by on Monday for some ice cream. It was so good that we came back the next day for more. Great service and superb ice cream. This is a must visit in Portland. The mint chip is excellent!
Winn Christnot-Peters (WinonaSioux)
Ice cream has excellent flavor and texture (totally try the salted caramel!) and the staff were super polite and helpful. Will definitely be back!
Josh Lindgren
One of the smallest get tastiest ice cream shops in all of Portland. If you're looking for some delicious and tasty flavors mixed with great service this is the spot.
So_ Blind
My wife made me go here twice in one day. We kept getting kids size and sharing because all the flavors were amazing.
My grandfather made home made ice cream when I was a kid. Having there ice cream reminded me why I'm always so disappointed when I get it from the carton in a grocery store.
Y'all definitely have to stop here. Get a kids size. Go out to have dinner or for a walk and then come back again for second dessert. You're probably on vacation, just do it!
Max Martin
Creamy and delicious ice cream with very friendly staff. Highly recommend
Marie Jordan
The root beer float with salty caramel ice cream is delicious!
Selena Gibb
Great selection. I had the butter pecan which was divine, my sister got the blueberry (also very good). No samples because of the pandemic, but that's alright I'm sure everything they have is amazing.
Steve T
Very delicious ice cream and generous servings. Was one of our favorite stops while visiting the Old Port in Portland. Located conveniently by the wharf and all the attractions.
Sokkalingam S Subramanian
Sea biscuit flavor was good and a must try if you like the biscoff biscuit flavor. Salty caramel and mint chocolate chip were good too.
Cori Smith
Amazing homade ice cream, giant sizes for great prices. Had frozen ,chocolate covered banana with sprinkles. Delicious
Nathan Greene
This is homemade ice cream, all made right in this shop (this is the only location) and it is excellent. Open year round. Try the Mexican hot chocolate flavor. They also have candies from Havens, a local chocolateer.
David Rhee
Homemade ice cream was delicious... just line wait was challenging.
Devan Deratany
SO delicious! Even in November, the ice cream was yummy and fresh. 10/10 recommend!
Mary Jo Fisher
I don't know about the other flavors but the Seabiscuit and Blueberry are outstanding. The Blueberry, in particular, really stands out and it's my new favorite. We went to three ice cream places in Portland and this one really stood out And my wife said the Needham chocolates were delicious.
Kishore Sundar
Tried the chocolate and the sea biscuit ice creams. So darn good! The portion sizes are quite big. One small sized cone/cup for 1 person should be good.
Ari W.
We stopped in for some chocolates on Saturday night and absolutely loved them! The girls working that night were very helpful and we will be back for ice cream!
Eleanor Trask
My friend and I went here last week. We both enjoyed the choices we made. I only wish they had more than one dairy free option. Service was great 👍🏽 …
Kelly Mcmillen
Very good ice cream and you receive a good deal of ice cream for the price.
Dakota Bates
Wonderful ice cream. The chocolate cookie dough is my favorite! Will be back when I’m in the area.
Robert rodriquez
So awesome. I got the small Sunday with two kinds of ice cream and it was plenty for me..
Paulo Barboza
Great selection of ice cream
Aditya Karandikar
Delicious ice cream in a great location. Servings are plentiful so be careful of getting that second scoop, but you won't regret it if you do. 🤣 …
Amber Billingsley
Lots of ice cream for not a lot of money and very good ice cream. Kids and adults but loved it
Forrest Bless
We make our own ice cream and haven't found any other ice cream shop as good as Captain Sam's. Our favorite is to get a quart of chocolate next to salty caramel. Simply the best!
Nicholas Estes
Great ice cream and deserts here. Would highly recommend the mint chocolate chip ice cream!
Lina
Oh M G, Oh M G, OHHH MMMM GGGG. This is ice cream??!?!! My household is on a diet, until we bought some ice cream for my son, and we asked him nonchalantly if we could try it. Only to stare each other dead in the face, for what seemed like the longest five silent seconds, with shock and awe, of my eatery life. We had to --no control -- turn back and order ice cream for ourselves. The cream, in ice cream is- as I've found it- not only a delicacy, but a talent to master. AND get ready to taste the highest grade of cream in ice cream you've ever tried. I ate here gladly, it's a good thing this place is located far far away from me. Otherwise no gym would help, and I would find any excuse to the 'Capitaine's' daily. My son isn't listening go to Captain Sam's; my husband isn't doing the dishes, go to Cappi's house he''ll fix it; I need a quick bite, there is Capt. Sam's.
Stephanie Whitt
This place has great ice cream!
Nicole Bradshaw
Sea biscuit (vanilla with biscoff cookies) = best ice cream flavor I have ever had! Super creamy & tasty without being too sweet
Suresh Dhanraj
Highly recommend the sea biscuit flavor.
Matthew Van Der Zee
The ice cream is all really good, especially the Bourbon one, but the price to ice cream ratio is abysmal. Good, but not that good.
James Johnson
Even the small cone is BIG... Great, fresh, and flavorful. I forgot the flavor I picked, but I can tell you it was delicious. Go if you are anywhere near Portland, Maine.
Nate Hoy
Fun little place with really good ice cream and friendly people. Very limited seating indoors but you know you want to walk the waterfront eating your ice cream anyway. 😁 …
Manoj Godwin
Got Kentucky Derby and it was delicious with the bourbon flavor !!
Thomas Fay
Home of the best ice cream I've EVER tasted!
Kyle Charest
Decided to try after the reviews, it was okay... Nothing special. Got a whoopie pie and a regular size in a dish and it was $9.40. That's a lot to me. I am used to fielders choice in oob. Would have cost literally half.
Laura Michalski
Creative flavors and good size portions.
Masoud Baikpour

My wife's flavor turned out better than mine. She's always luckier that way. Makes me jealous.
nbaon bnano
My daughter's favorite is Oreo. It is so worderful with big Oreo and not too sweet. We love it.

Home made ice cream and chocolates made offsite. Chocolate and Black Rasberry were yummy. May have to hit it up again.
