First time trying a few weeks ago and it was so good! I got my cone dipped in cookies & cream and it was amazing! I’ve never been to an ice cream shop where you get to choose your topping and what you get to dip your cone in, so it was a great experience!

The most delicious ice cream cone I’ve ever eaten. Previous top choice was Chocolaterie de l'Ile d'Orleans outside Quebec City, but no more… The “core” filling concept is genius, and delicious. I had vanilla ice cream (dairy), with raspberry core filling. Then on the outside I selected butterscotch dip. The dip was thick, not too waxy, and very good. Ice cream texture was perfect (very ice creamy), and of course the raspberry core was amazing. I would drive out of my way to hit this spot again anytime I’m near Durham/Raleigh. A must see!!

Simon Says is a very neat dessert place that offers soft serve, stuffed cookies and unique candies. They are open late and makes for a great stop after dinner. The soft serve is homemade and tasty but much of the soft serve world is very similar. The differentiation comes in building your treat. Core options are available as a liquid that fills the middle of the soft serve. Next choose yoir dip. This a liquidy top coat that hardens. Finally choose the toppings. The star of the show is without question, the stuffed cookies. They are HEAVY! It’s the best baked good I’ve had recently and I’ve been scowering all types of bakeries across NC. I got one of each flavor offered. All pictured below except Oumpkin Cheesecake which was consumed for a photo was taken.

This was my third time here. Each time the staff is so welcoming and friendly. The non dairy ice cream is so delicious. Hopefully one day they will make milkshakes 😉🙏🏼

Simon Says Dip This is one of our very favorite treats in Durham! It is a unique concept and oh so very tasty. We love choosing our combination and sharing because it is really rich! The swings are also fun 😀

What a great concept! The mix options are almost infinite. Staff was so willing to explain all the mixers and how they work. Great customer service. And a great product. Each part was of very good quality by themselves so when they are put together they are great

The ice cream cookie sandwich was amazing! The cookie itself was perfect. The brookie was the best I've ever had. This was our first visit and the guy that helped us was very patient and took his time breaking down the menu for us. Can't wait to visit this place again!

great place to visit if you’re in the mood for ice cream. i love how they had dairy free options, without an additional charge for choosing it! theres a number of dips to choose from (non dairy options too) and i love the concept of having “cores”. as someone who loves hardshells on ice cream i was super excited to try this place out, and it did not disappoint! the regular size was more than enough in my opinion. i would highly recommend stopping by and giving this place a try!

This was such a fun place with so many different options of dips cores and toppings! If you are an ice cream lover, you have to hit this place up! The decor is so whimsical and fun and lots of great flavors to try! We have to go back for seconds! Our little guy had the ice cream sandwich and he enjoyed it! I had the dairy, free, vanilla ice cream ! So creamy and delicious ! Love seeing small businesses like this crop up around us and we love to support them! And the best part is there is a huge parking garage right down the street... so it's convenient to peacefully park and come check out this location...

Okay like this place is wayyyy too expensive for what it was. I think it was like $8 for my ice cream. It’s a cool concept but honestly just felt like I ate a cup of sugar after eating it.
