Mel's Downtown Creamery

Lots of options including vegan non dairy and frozen yogurt. Lots of flavors to choose from. Generous amounts. Friendly service. Not overly crowded. Very good pricing. You won't be disappointed that you stopped here for icecream or shaved ice or a float or shake. You can reuse the green shaved ice cup also as a planter.

What a great spot to stop for a quick treat while you walk around westerly. Very clean and very friendly staff. The prices are also very reasonable.

Fantastic!! The gal behind the counter was very helpful. She gave her opinion on flavors that go well together. Wonderful old-school atmosphere.

So happy to find Hawaiian style shaved ice! You can ask for more than 1 flavor :) I got strawberry & banana then added soft serve vanilla to the bottom. Next time I think I’ll do hard ice cream because it melted by the time I got to the bottom. I also picked up a pint of NSA Coffee Toffee to go.

Service was great & the atmosphere is so cute!

Street parking is easier than trying to park in the back. Bit hard to figure out which stalls are for the businesses vs apartments.

My son and I stopped here after his riding lesson one day and OMG...this place is AMAZING!! We recently moved right down the street, and this is definitely a place we will be visiting often! We both got this ‘Death By Chocolate’ brownie/ice cream/hot fudge concoction, and it was phenomenal. We couldn’t finish them, so we took them home and put them in the freezer and were able to have ice cream the next day as well! Their menu is HUGE and the service was very fast and friendly. We absolutely recommend this place!

They ice cream here is to die for. Smooth and creamy with lots of choices. They also have frozen chocolate bananas and shaved ice just to name a few other cold treats. The owner is also super nice which always makes it a nice place to frequent.

Going to Mel's is one of my favorite things to do when I vacation in the area. The shop is so cute, the staff is super friendly, and the treats are to die for! I really recommend the Chocolate Lover's Dream. Everything is good though. They never miss here.

Thanks for another fun summer memory. Looking forward to next year.

Stopped in on a trip to RI and was very pleased with the store and especially the ice cream!!! There was a long line but the staff handled it well and with a smile! I will definitely go back!

Best ice cream around. Always good monthly ice cream specials.

Love this place, the atmosphere has that 1950's vibe and a variety of ice cream flavors to pick from. Definitely, worth stopping if you're in the area.

Such a cool little old-fashioned ice cream shop with dozens of flavors. Dairy-free and sugar free options. Shakes, sundaes and so much more. Well worth the trip!

Lovely little ice cream shop! A little 1950's nostalgia with tunes and setting that is just right for the area! Del's soft frozen lemonade is incredible! The hand-dipped ice cream selection never fails to impress. Lovely smiling faces behind the counter too! Love this place!

Great little local Ice Cream Shop. Very friendly staff and quick service. They use Bliss Brothers ice cream which is local (Attleboro, MA.) & delicious. They also have gluten free options and serve Dave's Coffee.

Excellent hard and soft serve ice cream. We had sundaes.

This is the way I’ve cream is meant to be!! Ice-cold, creamy and delicious! And the prices are out of this world. Not to mention a beautiful selection of hard-serve ranging from your classics to more obscure flavors like “butter crunch” and “graham central station.” Looking forward to stopping by with my whole family and making a tradition out of visiting this little local gem!

My wife and I prefer the ice cream here to any local creamery. I do not make this comment lightly, we have tried A LOT of ice cream and Mel’s cannot be beat. If I lived closer my doctor would not be happy.

So good. If you think establishments don't give you a fair share then you have never been to Mel's. Massive Portions!!! My personal favorite ice cream is the black raspberry. Open all year and they support local organizations.

Stopped in today for the first time. Great decor. Quite busy. Unique and delicious ice cream specialities. Shout out to the young lady who was on duty solo. Served everyone with a pleasant smile.

It was a flashback of memories as a kid! A soda fountain style ice cream shop that had a very nice young woman behind the counter and a great selection of REAL Ice Cream! If nostalgia and dessert at a reasonable price, this is the place to be. Adult AND kid friendly!
