About

Smitty's Homemade Ice Cream has long been a Burlington staple, but recent reviews suggest a decline in quality and service following a change in ownership. While many still enjoy the creamy, homemade flavors, others are disappointed by higher prices, smaller portions, and a perceived lack of the 'local' feel that once defined the shop. Despite these complaints, it remains a popular downtown destination for a quick treat.
