UPDATED POST:Tried this place again (actually twice) since my post below. I’ve had the mint chocolate marshmallow, red velvet cookies and cream, and the snickerdoodle flavors. All were awesome. I’ll certainly be back to try other flavors soon…like real soon! Updated pics below.———————————————————————————————We tried here two weeks ago.Service was friendly, nicely decorated parlor, ice cream was just okay. They were out of the Chai which I really wanted to try, so I’ll have to revisit.I did try the coconut ice cream wasn’t bad.I’ll give this place another shot and update this post.
Yummy real ice cream! Nice clean friendly atmosphere. There was nowhere to sit and enjoy our treats(covid & prefer you wear a mask) but we stood outside, and that was fine. There is nowhere to discard your trash in the back of the building, which would have been nice. Im a return customer very soon!!
I travel from PA to see my sister and we get your ice cream every time! It is beautiful and smooth and there are so many flavors to choose from! I wish I could find a way to get it back to PA!!! Excellent excellent ice cream!
A hidden jewel to me before today, but it is now FOUND!! If you like handmade ice cream you NEED to get over to Landons asap! This is THE SUMMER SPOT TO STOP IN ON!! Very creative flavors, dipped waffle cones, the combinations are exhaustive!! Make your way to La Plata and support this small business!! Customer service was very good, masks appear to be optional for customers per Maryland/CDC guidelines. No in store dining at the moment, but I look forward to returning. That Red Velvet Ice Cream will be my next selection!! See you THERE!!!!!🍦🍦
Staff was very friendly and helpful with us making our decision on flavors. The ice cream was superb. My kids and I enjoyed it. You can get a variety of sizes. They also make fresh waffle cones on-site. I really enjoyed the butter pecan. Best place to park is around back, street parking is limited.
It was hot. Very hot. And there I was walking around in the sun. I saw this place, and figured I need something cold. It was a life saver!Other than that, there is friendly service, and the coffee ice cream was delicious!
This is the beat ice cream that I have had in Maryland. It is absolutely the best ice cream menu. There are lots of options. I even enjoyed the strawberry ice cream and I dont even like strawberry ice cream. Or maybe it was just my first time having good strawberry ice cream. The shop is small and so that felt nice to me. It was like going to a friendly local ice cream shop in a small town. It was very clean. Everything was put back in into its own little place when it wasnt being used. There was this constant clean as you go that every mom wishes to see in real life lol. My kids loved it and have also decided that its their favorite. I am really impressed with this ice cream shop.
Tried this place specifically to try and support local.The selection seemed small for an ice cream shop, and contained mostly flavors that weren’t as traditional.Everything is served in a cup, unless you specify a cone. There aren’t sundaes at this place.Due to COVID, you need to order through the window to a two-way speaker wired under the window. It was a bit awkward to order to someone 2 feet away from me through the window, looking away from me. Even when asked to see cup sizes, I was shown cups without any eye contact. Seemed a bit strange as far as customer service goes. Then someone walked outside to hand me the ice cream in a bag. So all the efforts to avoid human interaction, then handed a bag face to face.Overall, the ice cream wasn’t bad. I’ve never been to an ice cream place that doesn’t have sundaes or offer cones unless specifically requested.Next time, I’m going somewhere else though.
I had the Charles Street Crunch. It was good. This place is great for a sweet treat!
I may be bias considering i have been working here for over a year now, but this is the absolute best place for ice cream in somd. not only do we provide excellent customer service, but the best quality products, if you ever stop by try the red velvet cookies and cream, its my absolute favorite! i love to be a part of such an amazing atmosphere, and meet such amazing customers on the daily. high quality ice cream definitely brings big smiles to everyones face, (even under masks!)
Fantastic selection of ice creams that are creamy and delicious. Make this a regular stop.
They have amazing ice cream, every flavor weve tried is delicious. And its local!
Friendly staff with a very nice shop. Awesome selections even have funnel cake and waffles. Im a new local and I will be back!!
This place is on point. I had the brownie sundae and it was absolutely delicious. My only compliant would be it was too small. I wonder if they do custom sizes? I would love to have like a 3lbs banana split.
Each time I go there, it just gets better. I am slowly making my way through the menu and each item is AMAZING!!
LOVE IT!❤️ Simply delicious... The absolute BEST Ice Cream I have ever had in My Life... I kid You not, and, it doesnt make me crampy, and quite frankly gaseous as store bought ice cream! 🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍦🍨🍦 You cannot go wrong here, so be patient, wait in line and meet some great people while youre waiting for amazement!🍦🍨😁👍🏾
The ice cream is so VERY good! They were out of Mint Chocolate Chip but one of the other options was a non-dairy Thin Mint that was surprisingly good! Ordered 5 different flavors, five thumbs up! Ordered it in-store, carried it out and we enjoyed everything! Thanks, Landons staff!
Im usually not an ice cream lover BUT this ice cream is unbelievably good. I love the cake batter and blue berry cheesecake ice cream and my husband is a huge fan of the butter pecan ice cream. The place is always clean and the staff friendly. I highly recommend Landons to family and friends.
Really quaint place. Unfortunately they did not have the vegan selections available. My non vegan family members enjoyed the flavors and handmade cones.
Good but expensive. Not really complaining because its definitely worth it. U get what u pay for. Good money gets u good ice cream here👍👍👍👍👍😁and the staff are very nice and polite.
This is hands down the best ice cream available. Once we found Landons,we havent bought any other ice cream. The variety of flavors available make it so there i something for everyone. The pints are actual pints and being hand packed, you definitely get more than the store bought pints. We love keeping a few flavors in our freezer. Also being a local small business, we are happy to be able to spend our money there instead of at the chain stores. The service is probably the only thing better than the ice cream! Oh and you can also get reward points, so an extra 10% off every now and then is great! If you havent tried Landons Ices & Creams, you have no idea on what you are missing out on. I just found out they will be open year round! So Im pretty excited about that and what seasonal flavors that will bring!!
We just moved to the area and gave this place a try!! Absolutely Delicious! We loved the unique flavor choices... I had the Nutella Carmel and it was so tasty! We will be back!
Chai latte ice cream was so so good! Light and creamy and the kids cup is the perfect size 🙃 will definitely be back!
The ice cream is amazing and creamy and rich. The samosa cookie flavor is delicious and I got a whole pint for 13.00 bucks i believe. Very happy abd satisfied. The banna pubbing and red velvet are also amazing
I decided I wanted some icecream this weekend (without all the added stuff) and stumbled across Landons. I sent a message inquiring about the menu and got a quick response. I thought I had a game plan and backup plan for flavors, but when I got there, there were so many. I was the only one one in there and it was mid day so I had plenty of time to choose. I went with the daily specials, gingersnap and chai latte. I drove home, washed my hands, and popped the lid...... I restrained myself and didnt eat the whole cup (I bought two scoops). The flavors and texture were amazing and the portions were too. The two ladies that were there, busy at work keeping everything organized and clean and very nice. Definitely a place for a nice treat. Well see what the next flavor adventure brings!
I want to tell you my favorite flavor but I dont want them to run out!!! So yummy!
Landons is our happy place. They have a good range of expected and unique flavors. Even some of the more typical flavors come with a personal touch - james peppermint is for anyone who wants to justify having a candy cane in July, complete with chunks of peppermint candy. The cookies and cream has pulverized cookie in the vanilla ice cream base, plus larger bites of cookie.Basically, we go out of our way to be in proximity so someone can say hey, were near Landons, right?Another point in Landons favor: family owned, local business.
Love this place! Everything is great from the customer service to the waffle ice-cream.
Best ice cream shop I have ever been to. Everytime I go I try a new flavor and have not been disappointed yet.
So delicious! I love it here! The ice cream is made with love and it’s super creamy. There are so many flavors. My favorite flavors are the Chai Tea Latte and Snickerdoodle. SOOO GOOD!
Ice cream is deliciously. Friendly service straight 5/5
The ice cream is delicious. There are many flavors. Will definitely return!
Had to get a pint of Guinness. Fast service and happy staff.
So good and creamy! The aroma of homemade waffle cones is intoxicating! The ice cream was creamy and smooth and the service was great!
Allergy friend, great service.. AMAZING ICE CREAM
INCREDIBLE ice cream, and such lovely owners! Honestly some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had, and some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Unique flavors, high quality ingredients, and clearly made with love. Cannot recommend Landon’s highly enough! Support this amazing, family-owned and operated local business — a true gem to the neighborhood!
Great service and ice cream was very good - the option to add ice cream to top a funnel cake is awesome!
Yummy yum yum. Wish they had gluten free/vegan (dont like sorbet, too sweet) cones but thats besides the point. The pastacio is out of this world!!!I love that its local and black owned. I will be going back. They give healthy portions of the stuff. 😋😋😋
Saw on one of the reviews that the egg nog ice cream was delicious so I decided to give it a try....boy was I disappointed! It tastes like flour and cinnamon and left a horrible tasting coating on my tongue. Honestly Ive had better egg nog Ice cream from Turkey Hill in the frozen section of my local grocery store. Word of advice people...TRY BEFORE YOU BUY! DONT GO BY THE WORD OF OTHERS!!
Great customer service, and the ice cream is even better!
Really good local ice cream! Wait was a bit, but everything else was great.
OMG This ice cream was sooo good. It reminded me of back in the day when my grandmother used to make it. It was smooth and creamy and the flavors were perfect. I got the Cookie Monster, Charles Street Crunch & Chocolate Peanut Butter & a Belgian waffle made to perfection!(Im not exaggerating) Its was super clean and the service was awesome, with smiles so big I could see them through the mask lol. I was really pleased.
My wife and I heard about this place from our neighbor. It is easy to find and in a great location. They have a variety of flavors to choose from and the prices are reasonable. Not to mention the ice cream is great. My wife had the special they offered which was the strawberry shortcake. I chose the Tuskegee Airmen Swirl. I got a waffle cone and instantly felt like a kid again !! My wife enjoyed her ice cream as well. The ice cream taste good and you get the sense it isnt loaded with artificial additives. Great customer service complimented by a savory product!! Hurry and stop by Im sure the lines will get longer this summer.
Amazing ice cream and Great customer service . If your ever in the Laplata Area come and check them out . I promise you wont be disappointed.
Such a nice little shop......pretty busy this evening, but everyone pleasant.
First time customer and I haven’t even finished my cup yet and I’m already writing a review.....let us bow our heads and please pray for my waist line 😍
Awesome ice cream and excellent customer service! 👌
The best ice cream in charles county bar none! Trust me! My wife, daughter and I are ice cream connoisseurs! We have recently started a no sugar and bread diet but allowing ourselves one cheat day. (Sunday). However, we gave in today (Wednesday) LOL. I mean this is not your ordinary run of the mill ice cream, how can you resist?! I usually stick to pistachio and chocolate chip but sometimes I deviate. My wife counts the red velvet cookies and cream and the charles street crunch among her favorites. I am selfishly hoping they add rocky road one day. An old school favorite of mine! Nonetheless, they have something for everyone and we have not gone anywhere else locally for ice cream since we discovered this great family owned business. Thank you Lamar and family for blessing us with your gift of crafting top notch ice cream!Dee Gidwani
My husband and I stopped by while we were out. He chose a milkshake and I got the Belgian waffle topped with Salted Caramel ice cream. I have never tasted something so divine. The waffle is made from scratch and the ice cream was the creamiest and most delicious by far! The milkshake was just as creamy and tasty. Ive found my new dessert 🍨 place.
Amazing homemade ice cream at it finest! Many exciting flavors to choose from,highly recomend: Blueberry cream cheese cake,sourdough caramel&ginger snap...
Great local place with awesome ice cream and customer service
Awesome shop...was looking for something different other than sweet frog or dairy queen...Landons definitely didnt disappoint. This was our first of many more visits!!
The ice-cream is absolutely outstanding.
Homemade ice cream is amazing. The kind you cant get anywhere else. Inventive flavors along with the classics. I go here often and never a bad experience.
Kids loved it, cant wait for them to get their vegan options in
Bonus points for having a dairy-free option! It was made with coconut, which is not my favorite; but still, it was dairy-free. Staff was great and so friendly/welcoming.
Amazing ice cream Fantastic service
My family absolutely loves this place. We have tried several different flavors and have always been happy. Great customer service and they even deliver! Just this past weekend we bought an ice cream cake for Father’s Day that was AMAZING! Highly recommend!!
Delicious homemade ice cream! Coconut caramel is my favorite. My dairy free kid enjoys the plentiful Italian ice options, green apple and raspberry lemonade are her favorites.
First time visitor and definitely will be back for more. I had the red velvet cake batter and two kids cotton candy and they were all delicious.
Nice employees, great ice cream!
Love it but Ice cream is my passion 😋
The ice cream was good! Staff was nice. Prices are more so on the high end.
This is hands down the absolute best ice-cream I have ever eaten. Im eating my way through the menu, my personal favorite is The Charles Street Crunch.
Really great milkshakes and Black owned! Will be returning!
Best Ice cream ever! A little pricy almost five bucks for a kids cone... Im giving them 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I paid $30 for 5 ice creams... With that price I wont be coming back soon. But the flavors were amazing!!! Worth trying if you have the money.
Very tasty and good service.
Very good ice cream with unique flavors. Service is also very good and well thought for safety. Highly recvomend.
It is ridiculous for something to taste this good! And how do you make Old Bay ice cream taste good?🤷🏾♀️ I’m not sure but it is phenomenal!!!! I also had the Honey Vanilla. Awesome! Very friendly, family- owned business.
Nice people, wonderful ice cream and shakes!
Luv this place always good
I got a regular sized Italian ice. This definitely is not Italian ice like you would get up North. The consistency was almost like soft serve ice cream, gooey and syrupy tasting. I had three scoops and couldnt eat anymore. There is really no way to explain how bad it was. I will still return to try the ice cream.
Best Icecream in the area!
Wonderful family and amazing ice cream. The variety of flavors and its homemade ugh is the best part. My daughter has Italian ice and enjoyed it as well. Ill be back its not to far from Waldorf and one of my new favorite jewels of Charles county.
Ice Cream and Italian Ice was delicious! I love the hometown feel. The ice cream parlor did not feel commercial. We will be back again thruout the summer. Thank you for quality ice cream and service!
Delicious ice cream!
By far the best ice cream Ive ever tasted. The service is excellent. The store is clean and very welcoming. Price is excellent for a full container of creamy delicious ice cream.
Delicious! Lots of creative flavors
Good icecream and customer service.
Good selection, friendly staff, nice place for a nice town
What a great addition to the Town of La Plata! Small batch ice cream and ices made fresh in the store! Family owned and operated by some really nice people! Whole one scoop is large enough, go ahead and get two, its that good!
Impeccable Customer Service! Oh Yeah, the ice cream is good too. Wishing you Longevity and Supernatural success😇🙏🏽✝️💜
I’m not joking BEST HOMEMADE ICE CREAM EVER! Staff is SUPER nice and friendly and prices... they are so affordable and great!
We are new to la Plata and where looking for a good icecream place. We found Landons and will be a faithful customer from here on out!!! Great story on how they came to be, great product !! Great tasting ingredients !!! A+ service !!!!
Went last night and was met with friendly smiles and great ice cream. Everything is natural and tastes amazing. Try the butter pecan it was amazing. Will definitely be back.
My experience was awesome great ice cream & amazing mango ice love the atmosphere & hospitality......Definitely recommend stopping in well worth the visit
Lots of unique flavors like red velvet cookies and cream and old bay (which I had) it was very good
So this is what homemade ice cream taste like?! It was so gooood way .. way better than store brought ice cream!! I tried the snickerdoodle and charles street crunch . I will be supporting this black owned business for sure.
This place is a hidden gem! So cute and quaint with its beautiful bright colors. Hubby and I went here for a dessert date. We tried the snickerdoodle and triple chocolate. Sooooo good! Thank you for the amazing treat!
Jist tried their ice cream today. I had the chocolate and the double chocolate chip. Wow is all I can say! Such a difference between this and store bought ice cream. I cant wait to go back!
We enjoyed the experienced. The ice cream was great. Looking forward to go back.
