If I could I would give Scoops a 25/5 for a rating because of their great service, great prices and the best quality ice cream I have ever had. The employees should get a higher raise for being so kind, polite, welcoming, and patient. In my opinion I would give Scoops my #1 go to ice cream place. Keep up the amazing work. I will definitely be back again. 👏👏🏆☺️
My kids demanded I drive across NY from Vermont on our way home to Ottawa to stop at Scoops for waffle cones with strawberry and chocolate. They loved it! Happy kids makes for an easy drive. They were also kind enough to verify that the hard ice cream at the time has no carageenan, so no headaches for me, awesome!
A large selection of soft serve ice cream, slushies, and tons of other treats. The prices are right on point and the employees are always extremely nice. We will be back for sure :)
Nice little gem right in downtown Potsdam. Reasonably priced & a great selection of treats. Soft serve & hard ice cream.
Scoops and Chilly Delights are both very nice spots to get an ice-cream or other frozen dessert in Potsdam.
Good downtown location, great ice cream, popular place!
Cute spot in downtown Potsdam, across the street from Ives Park. Good selection, good value.
The owner is fun to chat with and it just might be my new icecream go to since it is close to home
Yum! My husband loves the black raspberry soft serve.
Always fun to visit Scoops. Try a new flavor everyone I go.
My favorite place to stop for ice cream with the family.

Who doesn't love some soft serve on a hot summer night? This is our go-to place for a cone or small Sunday in the summer. It is open seasonally and has your usual assortment of soft serve and hard ice cream. I love peanut butter topping on my Sundays and there's is very tasty. It can take a little time at the beginning of the summer for them to get into their groove. Stick to ordering off the menu as I have found, when you try to customize your order, the pricing gets a little inconsistent.
Ice cream itself was pretty good! Cons: Doggy dishes are alarmingly small compared to other ice cream shops. They are served in the equivalent of what you would get a side of a condiment in at a restaurant. I was handed the doggy dish first and unfortunately it took even longer than usual to make my sundae, in turn leading to the doggy dish melting everywhere (as the cup is so small and the temps were high). It’s worth noting it might be best to make the desserts that take the longest, first. Otherwise, a cute little shop and I would stop again when in the area :)
They have decent prices on all of their stuff. It is conveniently located right across the street from Ives Park which has a free parking lot. There is only outdoor seating there and they are working on expanding their seating. It looks like they recently opened up the new benches that they've been working on.
Great ice cream and amazing prices
Friendly staff, great ice cream, good prices.
Fun place to go with friends. Give Miss Ruttley with the blond hair a raise.

I asked for a mocha milkshake that I saw on your menu online that was supposed to be chocolate syrup and coffee syrup and I asked the girl if she knew how much caffeine it actually had and she said uhhhhh I don’t know. So I was like OK well, can I get one of those and just get light coffee syrup? And she said sure And I was just given a vanilla milkshake for some reason?

$17 for 1 small Sunday and a soft serve in a dish is a little outlandish. Also the Sunday that was ordered was strawberry cheesecake. Recieved a pineapple Sunday?? Nothing was done to correct it. Bad service and high prices. Go to hazel's in Norfolk or hometown in Norwood if you want a good experience
