Anybody know what's up with these guys? I walked there twice this weekend, on both Saturday and Sunday, hoping to get some ice cream and they were closed on both days. Odd for an ice cream place to be closed on a hot weekend in August.

i have heard of google.but have you ever heard of MARKETING 101.
my point was why advertise a charitable event and not tell the buyer/donor what the event is all about?

FYI It was written as "Cherry Picked" by the store itself then I guess they realized they should lose the past tense and make it Pick.
That's why folks - myself included - was referring to them as Picked.

FYI :the name of the place is 'cherry-pick", not '-picked'. To cherry-pick is to pick the most desirable item.

Agreed! It's not overpriced (and I had ice cream for dinner last night tee hee). Only thing I would like to see changed is have to pay for a regular sugar cone. Most establishments include it in their pricing so I think to be competitive it may be a better idea to include it. Delicious ice cream! I do love Torrico's which I still visit as often. I kind of split my calories between the two.

The joy of being an adult -- I can have ice cream for dinner, which I did this evening. True Coffee is divine. Not overpriced at all. Next time, Mint Chip.

I had my doubts but the ice cream is actually very good...they're not bsing with the super premium pitch. 3.50 for a small is not cheap but it was very rich and satisfying. Quality over quantity.

I thought I would feel bad for going somewhere other than Torico's for ice cream, but had Cherry Picked's flavor with chocolate pretzels in it. Can't remember the name, but it was delicious!
Quickly overcame any guilt and will be back to try other flavors too...

I tried this place and I thought the ice cream was good. They charged extra for a cone (a regular sugar cone, not a waffle cone or anything special), which I thought was a little ridiculous considering their prices.

I thoroughly enjoyed my ice cream from Cherry Picked. I went three times last week b/c I really really liked it.
Had the Butter Brickle all three times :) On their chalkboard wall, they explained why it's "premium" --- which I think means it has a higher fat content and I think, means super creamy! I definitely noticed a difference between the creaminess of their ice cream compared to say Torico's. They don't have as many flavors as Torico's which may or may not be a bad thing.

Oh yeah, went to this place last weekend. Really quite tasty. Didn't notice that the size was smaller, but I might have just gotten really excited by that... chai flavor, I believe?

I like Gia for their spin on the flavors. My GF loves their red wine and peppercorn flavor. But Tommy's is old school Gelato that scratches a slightly different itch.
Besides, both are hardcore boosters of the town and downtown as well, and I like that. Gia has a new cart that they send to farmer's markets and street events, and you can't walk into either Tommy's or Brightside without Tommy himself coming buy to greet you if he ever met you before. It's like pizza. I like both Razza and Larry 'n Joes.

Just curious, but what's their selling point? organic? i wonder if they are the proprietors of the last place that was there and they just decided to give this a shot. maybe they still had the lease or they own the building.

I didn't see any, but I don't look for it. If you do eat regular sweetened ice cream though, avoid the coffee-cookie flavor. The coffee flavor is underwhelming,but they coarsely chopped actual Oreos into the ice cream instead of just the cookie sandwich layers, and the resulting Oreo filling that was mixed in completely overpowers the flavor and turns it to overly sweetened crap.
There is a reason by every Cookies n Cream variation at good ice cream shops never puts in real stuffed Oreos, but instead buys the cookie pieces.

I tried the new shop, and was pretty disappointed. I don't know if they make it themselves, but it is pretty disappointing in taste, and the portion is half the sizeof Torico, at the same price or more. If I was in that area, I would go to Tommy Two Scoops, or just walk to Torico.
As for the yogurt place.. blecch. Overly sweetened, tasteless and needing a ton of toppings to make it palatable.

I think all the yogurt chains are expensive like you describe. I don't think Downtown Yogurt is any more expensive than, say, a Red Mango. But the quality and flavor range in Downtown Yogurt is superior to the chains, IMO, so I keep going back.

I don't mind paying more for ice cream because for me it's a rare treat, like dessert at a restaurant. Milk Sugar Love is around $5 a pop but I think it's worth it for the quality, freshness, and flavors you'll never see in a grocery store (caramel corn cake!).
That said when Downtown Yogurt opened I thought maybe I could get icy treats a bit more often since it's not the calorie hit of ice cream. But they are actually very expensive because the only cup sizes are basically large and x-large, and the toppings add weight which drives up the price. A full cup of their smaller size will run you at least $7. To keep the price more in the $2-3 range I fill up maybe 1/4 of the smaller container. I wish they had a smaller size option.
