Black Bear Ice Cream - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Stands out for its simplicity and deliciousness 😁✅ Rhum and Raisin and Bubble Gum

Old fashion deliciouse ice cream! Made in Halifax Many will praise Cows ice cream The milk and the waffle cones taste the same to me. It comes down to your flavor preferences.

The ice cream was good. My husband got one scoop of caramel and licorice and found the taste too mild...we liked that you could get a large and try 2 flavours. The service was friendly but there may be some work required on organizing...we were 2nd in line ... in the pickup window (already ordered and paid) and the man in front of us was eating his ice cream and was half way through and understandably getting a bit frustrated but he still didn't lose patience and finally knocked on the window and said my wife is just waiting on a soft serve. It came out fairly soon after and then we waited another long time for 2 large plain cones...we just couldn't figure out what they were doing back there...it can't take that long to scoop out ice cream and there was 2 working. One taking orders mainly granted but the soft serve then ours took a long time and we were all next in line. Then when it came it was dripping as they handed it to us and we had to race to eat it and it dripped quite a bit on our hands and clothes. I don't know if the freezers aren't cold enough? It was a warm day but very overcast (August 13th, 2023), so it shouldn't have melted that fast. So good ice cream but some organizational issues to work on for sure. Read more

I’m a big,big ice cream fan and was so excited to try Cows when I visited Halifax this summer. I was soooo disappointed. I decided to try Black Bear as well and boy oh boy was it WAAAAAAYYY better! Great flavour. Creamier/richer tasting ice cream. Don’t ... be fooled by the prices. A ‘single’ is two scoops (a lot of places do this). There’s no merch or gimmicks here. JUST GREAT ICE CREAM! Don’t miss it! Read more

Long line but the do push you through fairly quickly. Loads of flavours to choose from. I would say about as pricey as any other “Ice cream shop”. Got the moon mist because you have to when in the east coast! Delicious. (Picture is my already well enjoyed single scoop)
