    Wow! I absolutely loved this cute little ice cream shop. The flavor choices were unique, but not intimidating. The options were familiar flavors that it didn’t seem risky to try something new. I got the bourbon butter cake ice cream (and I really wish I’d gotten the toasted marshmallow topping), but I guess that means I’ll have to come back. The ice cream was flavorful, but not overpowering. One scoop was plenty to enjoy without overindulgence. Definitely plan on coming back to try more flavors and combinations!

    An awesome local treat! So many varieties of ice cream, and it is so SMOOOOTH. My wife and 3 year old were up a bit late in our hotel room on our way north, and we weren't quite full from our dinner. So my wife said "if the first place I look at with ice cream is open, we're going!" Thinking there's no way a ice cream shop would be open at 8:45p at night....but were we delightfully wrong! If you're looking for a great, local place to grab a late night snack, Louisville Cream is the place. Pictured is the Haute Sundae, which my chocoholic wife loved. I had the malted Oreo on a waffle cone. Delicious!

    They didn’t have all of the special flavors that I was hoping for - like the Lavendar Honey Vanilla, or the East Atlantic Cookie Dough. I ended up getting the Pistachio honeycomb and the Banana pudding with the toasted marshmallow on top, they were both great. 5$ for 2 scoops which is comparable to greaters / other ice cream shops around the city. 🍦 I have only tried a few flavors so far, I’ll be back to try more. Hopefully they will have the special flavors that are always advertised on IG !!! (Instagram)

    I'd advise you to get one scoop if it's your first time. The ice cream is so creamy and rich that it's worth the $8 price tag. I got a scoop of the creme Brule and birthday cake cookies and cream. Delicious!!

    This was my second time visiting and it was just as amazing as the first time! The first time I had the banana split and it was divine! This time I had to try the smores cookies and creme ice cream. I added thr toasted marshmalllow topping on top and it was one of the best ice cream dishes I have had in a long time! I wish that I lived closer to this place so that I could always try their seasonal flavors!!! If you are in the Louisville area and love ice cream, this is a place that you have to try out!!!!

    Five stars for the unique flavors which included bourbon pecan, hazelnut banana pudding and blackberry cobbler. But had to go overall four for taste. Customer service was average. Staff was not as attentive as other locations Ive visited in Louisville.

    The off white cookies and cream was way better than the s’mores. Point taken off for the switch 🙄… the serves sizes are never the same. Sometimes it’s a nice size other times it like two spoon fills of ice cream on a waffle cone. Until the off white is back I can save a trip down town.

    The craft ice cream is creamy, delicate and flavourful. The hand made marshmallow cream is a MUST!

    Stopped in for dessert on Thursday night. My husband got the strawberry ding dong and my friend got a milkshake. They both said it was delicious:)

    Omg this place is so fire! Plus I love to support local, and the story of the young men that started this company is pretty cool. I go to their store front location from time to time, but my favorite is to buy pints from my local highlands valu market, also supporting local! This birthday cake cookies and cream flavor is literally the best thing I've ever put in my mouth. I eat it for dinner about 5 nights a week! I've never had a bad flavor from louisville cream. Do yourself a favor, and check them out TODAY!!

    Delicious! The Banana Split is a meal. Cold Brew Coffee was fantastic. Scopes are large. Quality ice cream but still pricey.

  • 5/5 Kat P. 8 months ago on Google
    This place had amazing ice cream! You can't go wrong with the banana pudding ice cream, it was out of this world delicious! Prices were reasonable, there was a little line for a Wednesday night but we only waited about 8 minutes. Must be the place to go because as we were eating, two firetrucks showed up for a well deserved ice cream stop too. Next time I'm in Louisville I fully intend on visiting again....and maybe grabbing a prepacked pint to go.

    Louisville Cream has delicious homemade ice cream and other treats! I love taking out of town guests there and seeing their excitement when they see the flavor combinations. Definitely worth the wait if there’s a line. You can also pick up pints in the freezer section at Kroger, Paul’s Fruit Market and other local grocery stores.

    Yummy ice cream! Will leave you satisfied. Good size portions, and a good menu to mix things up when you go back. Be careful with pan handlers trying to take your money. Other than that good overall

    Very creamy ice cream with some unique flavors. Great on a hot day. You only need one scoop because of how rich it is and lactose intolerant people beware.

  • 3/5 Tracy D. 10 months ago on Google
    Good ice cream and was lined up out the door. I got a milkshake which was just a milkshake. It wasn’t bad but wasn’t the best I have ever had. Service is a little lackluster

  • 4/5 Julie S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good! I'd suggest going early because they run out of things later in the day and don't make anymore. I'm not complaining at all because we still found plenty that we would like to try. However, you will find more options earlier. We had the toasted marshmallow topping on a soda float.

    This is a really cute shop in downtown Louisville (Nulu). We had seen their Instagram page and wanted to cool down on a warm day. There is seating on the outside / inside, but it's limited. They also have a standing bar to eat your desserts there. When you walk in, the menu is directly to the left. Unfortunately, it was a bit busy, so we didn't really have a long time to try and figure out their Instagram configurations. There isn't much room to "stand to the side" to look at the menus. As for the ordering process, it goes quite smoothly. Similar to Cold Stone (order on one end. Pay at the other). The pricing is about what you'd expect from a little shop from downtown. For two shakes (plain) and two cookies, it was $18.85. Lastly, they use real milk from JD Country Farms. So, just keep that in mind if you have a sensitive stomach. Overall, this is a great place to grab a dessert with family or a date.

    Cute small creamery, wished they have their ice cream displayed so I can determine which flavor I want to try better! I ended up getting a scoop of the Crème Brûlée flavor, wished I had gotten the toasted marshmallows topping, but totally forgot! Boyfriend got two scoops, one was the Birthday Cake Cookies & Cream and the other was Vegan Peach(?) I believe! The crème brûlée was amazing! Must try that flavor!

  • 5/5 James S. 2 years ago on Google
    The Strawberry and Cream was excellent. My wife had Brown Sugar Carmel and really enjoyed it. Plus, the hand roll their waffle cones on-site, and I am a big fan. I would 100% recommend Louisville Cream.

  • 4/5 Maria B. 2 years ago on Google
    Stopped by on a visit in town. Staff was super nice and quick. The ice cream was good but not super flavorful. They have several serving options including ice cream sandwiches and mini cakes. The ice cream sandwiches are customizable which is cool. Try it out if you're looking for dessert!

    Came in on a Tuesday night after a couple drinks. Went with the whiskey cookies and cream with a chocolate chip cookie. Both were okay, it was creamy with good flavor but nothing too memorable in my honest opinion. I'd still be willing to come back and try their other flavors.

    I had then red velvet swiss roll ice cream and WOW it was so good!! My husband had Oreo ding dong and he said it was very good too. The teen had a birthday cake cookies and cream milk shake. Three thumbs up 👍👍👍
