Carvel Express

A must try place in Arlington VA.
The ice cream variety is excellent. Try to get their loyalty card it is beneficial. They serve various sandwiches & pizzas.
Parking spaces are abundant & available, the location is quite convenient and at proximity to various residential buildings & offices.
Vanilla, chocolate & cheesecake flavors are my favorite choices, take a cup or the cone from the dispensing machine.
Finally, staff are courteous and helpful.
Great convient place indeed in Arlington VA.
God bless 🌺

That is a seriously consistently flavorful ice cream. Perfectly melty, a ton of flavor options, and the perfect vibe for an afternoon ice cream. The road noise isn’t too bad, and the service is great!! 10/10 would eat again!

We often visit Carvel to enjoy their soft serve ice cream. It’s not that much sweet and flavourful, that's why we like it most. We also tried their sundaes but we actually didn’t like their sundaes. We will always visit Carvel to have their yummy ice cream.

Absolutely wonderful barbecue Pizza the crust is homemade every day they've been in business since 1958 still wonderful even though Lefty is gone

They have delicious milkshakes and ice cream. The hamburgers at the adjacent store are also good, and it has a very retro (1950s) feel. I have tried numerous flavors of shakes and different ice cream plates. All very delicious. Any time I want ice cream, this is my first choice.

We ordered this specialty cake for my husband's birthday one day in advance. Fudgie The Whale, with the message "To a Whale of a Husband" (From The Simpsons). It looks beautiful. It survived and hour and a half ride home in an thermal bag with ice. We aren't eating it until this weekend, so I can't comment on taste, but they are usually delicious!! Thank you!

The ice cream tasted great and they did wonderful with the toppings! I purchased extra in case there were not enough to satisfy my sweet tooth but they gave more than enough!
Yummy!!!

Got a cheesesteak here, staff was very helpful discussing how to prepare it, and it was delicious.

No wait and Symoon Jahan Eva was polite and courteous. Prices are reasonable.

Stopped by with a friend on a whim. Literally the sweetest staff. Very helpful, very patient. The shop itself is so nostalgic. It’s like I stepped in a time machine and was transported to my childhood. Colorful with so many menu items to choose from. Overwhelming in a good way lol. Oh and the ice cream. DELISH! My friend got the fudge brownie and I a vanilla soft serve with sprinkles. So good!

Delicious ice cream and shakes!

We Drove 45 minutes to get the Hocus Pocus milkshakes and they did not disappoint.. They were delicious..

A special place. I drive 14 miles each way every year to get a custom birthday cake for my daughter

Very nice employee with great customer service and super patient with my man who was undecided. The icecream beats other places hands down! And as far as milkshakes and other extra toppings, cakes made to order. The choices are overwhelming! It might be small but totally worth going to! Definitely recommend the tropical flavor ice cream!

I had to write a review of these guys since it seems to be leaning negatively.

My experiences with this place have always been spot on, I always get the soft-serve since that's what I associate Carvel with. Never had a bad experience here. Love the vibe/aesthetic, the colors and building take me back to the 90s when I was little. Great at night time too when the neon lights are on and buzzing.

I didn't like the ice cream flavor I got. I went back and asked if there was anything they can do. They said absolutely, gave me a taste of another flavor so I'd see if I'd like it, and was able to order an ice cream of my choice. Great customer service all around!

Always a special treat for me and my grandchildren, just as it was for their parents 10 and 20 years ago. Even at age 30, my children still love a Carvel Ice Cream Cake for their birthdays.

Great ice cream and great service. Never dealt with such an accommodating and pleasurable staff to work with. They handled a short notice birthday cake order easily and with commitment. Will be back

Good, friendly service. This Carvel is connected to another restaurant named Mario's. Great pizza, great burgers and a longtime staple in the Arlington,VA community. I love this area because of places like this.

Great product and service. I needed to have my cake delivered lat minute. The people at Carel made sure the delivery driver was able to get the cake and even packed the box with ice. Thank you!
