A real wrench to the dairy industry! - Edit
There were so many flavors, but I chose Budderfinger in a waffle cone. It was as delicious as I remember Butterfingers to be.

Amazing ice cream! - Edit
Many of the flavors definitely have a coconut taste, but it is absolutely delicious. I love that they call themselves "anti-dairy"! #Veganuary

wow!!! - Edit
so many choices. i couldn’t sample them but think it’s safe to assume you can’t go wrong with any choice. i had a brownie sundae. wish i’d taken a picture but it contained 2 generous brownies, with your choice of ice cream, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. i can’t say enough how delicious it was! you won’t be disappointed.

Creative flavors - Edit
This ice cream is great, whether you are vegan or not! The flavors are creative, but they also have some standard flavors. My wife and I tried 8 flavors, and had the waffle cone. Due to COVID, it is take out only or eating on tables outside. You cannot dine inside. They are also not doing any drinks from the menu.
Read morePros: Creative flavors, Goods service
Cons: No dining inside

Yummy Vegan Treats! - Edit
We stopped in to monkey wrench while on a cross-country trip in an RV, and we’re pleasantly surprised to find vegan ice cream. I don’t recall if everything was vegan, but they had lots of vegan options. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, and had list of ingredients when requested.

Vegan caramel is great - Edit
I loved this spot! I feel like a lot of vegan ice cream shops forget about using peanut butter and lack on caramel topping - Monkeywrench had an amazing peanut butter ice cream and their caramel was spot on!

Oh my goodness it’s fantastic - Edit
Not a lot to say here. They bill themselves as anti-dairy, which I love, and they make great ice cream. It’s a tad expensive but super worth it — obviously worth a visit if you’re nearby and in an ice cream mood.

Anti Dairy Milkshakes Bring All The Boys N Girls To The Yard - Edit
Wow just wow. I’ve been dairy free for a long time and i had my first waffle cone there. I still can’t believe the city i live in his a vegan ice cream store. I keep coming back to try the new flavors but my favorites are the buds cookie dough, Peppermint brownie, mint chip and Carmel cone. They also have good baked good, ginger cookies, brownies, biscotti and excellent coffee drinks. Oh and all the deliciousness they add to the ice cream they make in house just like the waffle cones! And right next door to boltcutter so you can eat ice cream and then get some excellent vegan Mexican food next door. Or do it the old fashioned way of dinner first and then ice cream!
Read morePros: homemade waffle cones, rotating flavors

KILLER ICE CREAM - Edit
Super creamy! They have everything from lavender and Earl grey to mint chocolate chip. They also have vegan cookies and brownies! Great place to stop after Boltcutter/or before(since Boltcutter normally has a line outside on weekends.) Don't forget to get a pint to go!
Read morePros: Cute/clean environment, Super creamy ice-cream, Great variety of flavors

SOOOO GOOD - Edit
My husband said if I could make food like this he’d go vegan! It’s a vegan version of “Rockwell” if you’ve ever been there (all dairy, super rich, but good if you’re into that). Even non vegans will LOVE this place! (My family did)

Fantastic - Edit
First time here, but will definitely not be our last. The Bud’s Cookie Dough Ice cream was phenomenal and I would eat that any day of the week.

Heaven! - Edit
Their ice cream is so good! My sister said she could taste the coconut in all the flavors, but I didn't notice it. Just plain yummy to me! A little bit spendy, but worth a special treat once in a while.

Best Ice Cream - Edit
Amazingly creamy and flavorful vegan ice cream. Had a Carmel flavor that had chocolate and salt, yum. Bought a pint of a seasonal flavor for later, pumpkin. It tasted exactly like pumpkin pie! So good!

Perfect non dairy ice cream. Not that much baked goods and desserts I've expected to see reading the description it should be a dessert cafe.

Best. Ice. Cream. EVER. - Edit
I get CRAVINGS for this place, bar non the best vegan ice cream you could ask for. The staff is friendly and funny, you can try out samples to as many of the ice cream as you want, and the service is very quick in itself.
Read moreThe flavors are all delicious, though I admit I’m stuck on always getting their Lavender and Earl Gray scoops on a cone. They also come out with seasonal and new flavors all the time. A MUST visit for any vegan in the area.
Pros: Best ice cream, obviously., Fast service., Comes in PINTS
Cons: Parking can be a trial (free on Sundays)
