Review

Sara I. (Nov 30, 2021): 

“I hadn’t visited this location in years. It’s tucked into a large shopping plaza in a busy part of Stafford—one I used to frequent over a decade ago when this was a Cold Stone Creamery. This Marble Slab is just OK. The servers were friendly and let me try a few samples, but many flavors tasted quite artificial, which is expected for a large chain. I opted for coconut since it looked fresher than the others—creamy and not too sweet. Added almonds for texture.

The cookies weren’t great; the red velvet one I tried didn’t taste fresh at all. Most seem standard and artificial. They offer cookie sandwiches and ice cream cakes, but I’d stick to simple flavors like chocolate, vanilla, or cake batter. Mix-ins are included, and they have waffle bowls and cones. The shop was clean, the staff kind, and I’m glad it still exists in the neighborhood. Here’s hoping they continue serving decent sweet treats.”
