We stopped in Loblolly in the hot July afternoon for a special treat. Everyone left a little happier. The kids’ single ice creams were great. In fact, one said, “you should’ve ordered this cookies and cream,” and the other said, “nuh-uh, you should’ve ordered this chocolate.” So many cool flavors to try, and the workforce is as cool as the dessert.

Sad to say this is a disappointment. Arkansas Mud was meant to have cookie, brownie and fluff throughout but there were two tiny brownie bits throughout the entire thing. The texture is really interesting. It reminds me of “low fat / low calorie” ice cream - not as creamy as I expect ice cream to be. I do highly rate their staff though, super friendly and hospitable so two stars for that!
Absolutely loved this place! Large variety of ice creams, including some dairy-free options. Between the 4 of us we tried so many and they were all incredible. Highly recommend the red velvet - literally the only time I’ve had red velvet that wasn’t overwhelmingly sweet. It was perfect. Friendly staff. Loved the inclusivity sign. Gem of an establishment!
Tried the coffee and cream ice cream, it was light on coffee flavor and a great amount of cream flavor. The lavender ice cream was different enough that I liked it. The sorbet is ....so good.
Really unique ice cream flavors. In my top ten favorite ice cream parlors in the country. Try their cookie sandwich too. Key lime ice cream is legit ?
Delicious! I tried the 6-scoop ice cream flight because there were so many flavors I wanted to try, and that was really a great idea on Loblolly's part. The scoops were the perfect size, and it was very satisfying getting to try so many flavors. My two favorites were the Little Rock-y Road and the Spicy Chocolate, because chocolate's my fave, but the Bourbon Pecan (made with locally distilled bourbon) was a revelation, and the Double Vanilla was the best vanilla I've had in a long time. I highly recommend coming here if you're in the Little Rock area!
Started our Saturday night here getting ice cream! Arkansa mud was amazing! A small is two large scoops. So if you are wanting a smaller option go with a child size. Service was fast and friendly.

Love the idea of an ice cream flight. Three of us wanted to try several things but we weren't super hungry and the 6 scoop flight was awesome. I think the berry sorbet was my favorite!
If asked to describe Loblolly Creamery, the word "cute" is generally what comes to mind. Loblolly's fun, colorful, and cartoony aesthetic wouldn't work quite as well if the ice cream wasn't equally as fun--but luckily, it is! With a broad selection of ice cream (even some healthier options!), there's plenty of unique choices for you to try! You can't go wrong with the Arkansas Mud, Salted Caramel, or Coffee and Cream, but if you're feeling more experimental, their buttermilk-based ice creams are a tangy twist worth trying! Yeah, it gets a little pricey when all is said and done, but honestly, compare it to most ice cream/sweet shops and it's really not much more, all things considered. Plus, they're open later on weekends, so it's the perfect phase 2 for a dinner date or night out with friends!
