Parish Parlor - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Parish Parlor is a cute ice cream parlor on Magazine with a rotating selection of flavors. I recently tried the Toasted Coconut & Chocolate, which were absolutely delicious!

I had the espresso brownie and the bananas foster in a waffle cone. Both flavors were way too sweet, and not exceptionally creamy. I understand ice cream is a treat and meant to be sweet, but this was like eating cake icing in terms of sweetness, it's too much. I may have very well gotten unlucky with my flavor choices, so based on other reviews praising the ice cream I would say if you plan to go, sample the ice creams you want to try and make your own judgement. My opinion is there needs to be more butterfat and less sugar. On the bright side, I thought the waffle cone had a very pleasant taste, texture and thickness. Although, my friend even thought the waffle cone was too sweet.

Best ice cream and root beer whistle!!!

Bananas foster flavor is the best I have ever had.

The service is great! There are so many great options and the food is incredible!

Cosy little old fashioned ice cream parlor on New Orleans. All the four flavors were delicious. Brownie butter cream, double chocolate, expresso cream, chocolate chip. Excellent flavors.

A bit dirty and unfriendly. Girl behind counter barely spoke and was unpleasant. Product was OK.

Fantastic ice cream in a great location!

They’re supposed to be open at noon, but we walked all the way there in the heat and at quarter after noon they were still closed with no sign indicating why. They didn’t answer their phone.

Great flavors especially expresso brownie and lavender london fog. Raspberry jalapeno was interesting, not spicy but bothered my daughter's stomach still after a while. Dairy free flavors peanut buttermud pie my husband loved! L Creamy like ice cream not sorbet! Irish coffee DFwas a little more icy but still delicious!

An absolute delight on Magazine. The double chocolate is to die for. Service was extraordinary. Definitely check this place out.

Parish Parlor is a small-batch ice cream parlor which specializes in classic French-style ice cream and seasonal sorbets along with offering Vegan and alternative milk-based options. Parish Parlor is located in the New Orleans Lower Garden District about 8 minutes and 2 miles away from the French Quarter at 1912 Magazine Street which is one of the busiest commercial arteries in the area. I was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful and dense the ice cream here was. This is some of the best ice cream in the New Orleans area although it does come at a bit of a premium. They have a very interesting selection of flavors and unlike some other area ice cream and gelato joints their ice cream has very deep and intense flavors Overall if you love full flavored ice cream that is a pleasure to eat then you should make a visit to Parish Parlor My video review of Parish Parlor Ice Cream is here: youtu.be/_WjdFM6IGCw

Love the ice cream and cones + love the atmosphere: French music, cute interior design — but every time I stop in here the people working act like customers are a nuisance just for being there. Hate that feeling.

Very unique and delicious flavors and a cozy atmosphere!

I reallyyyyy wanted to like this place but the customer service was just terrible. I came here tonight and a young man and woman were working. The young lady was extremely rude. No greeting. No smile. Didn’t even ask to take my order, just stood there blank faced. She showed clear annoyance when I asked for a sample. Tip: If customer facing work isn’t something you enjoy, you should really find another line of work. That aside, I enjoyed my dessert. I tried the saffron flavor and it was really rich and earthy (floral even). I went with the Butter Brown Cookie Dough on a waffle cone and it was delicious! The waffle cones are so FRESH—it’s like they’re baked daily and kept warm. Spent about $6.25 for a single scoop and it’s a nice sized portion. May come again.

They had the absolute best ice cream love the black berry cheesecake and lemon ricotta honey. The girl serving us . She seen my sons birthday patch and gave us a birthday discount ! Best ice cream in mid city !

Went here because it was close to Union Ramen. The ice cream was fine, the waffle cone was good, but the service was pretty bad. I don’t know if the green-haired girl who was working was having a rough day or something, but she made our order wrong and when corrected, rolled her eyes, threw the ice cream, and started slamming all the freezer doors while remaking our order. It was kind of like watching a child throw a tantrum and was just really uncomfortable to see. We came in hours before closing and didn’t say or do anything to her other than tell her our order and later that she made the wrong order, so I’m not really sure why she started bugging out. I hope she has the day she deserves. Honestly, if you want good ice cream just go to Creole Creamery. They have good ice cream and waffle cones with better service.

Fabulous flavours, 3 vegan choices

Very delicious ice cream! I got strawberry and it was so good! And you can just buy a waffle cone for $1 !

Awesome staff and customer service. If you're looking for great customer service while eating great ice cream this is the best spot.

This place is a relaxing chilled out vibe, cool little rear patio ares if you want to hang out when the weather is nice. The first thing that hit me when we walked in the place was the awesome smell of brown suggar and butter cooking. Great location with plenty of nearby parking, where it should not be a concern if you are driving to this location. I can only imagine the gentlemen that served us was the owner, because he took great pride in sampling his creations, and explaining the ingredients. For example I am not a fan of cookie dough, but after sampling it I was won over...this place elevated ice-cream to a gourmet meal, with the cooks combination of ingredients it was a delight change of flavor profiles. I was fortunate to order my ice cream on a waffle cone. The cone was the true treat of thos experience, it was not to sweet, not to crisp, but perfectly cooked someplace between crisp and chewy, with a hint of vanilla. I think I have found a go to spot for relaxing and some high quality ice-cream...hats off to the cheff!

Heavenly small batch ice cream with traditional and unique flavors. My partner had a scoop of the Pecan Pie while I chose the Lavender London Fog. Sublime! The cones are thick, crunchy, sugary, delicious and didn't crumble or leak! Perfect treat for a date on Magazine Street! Two single scoop cones were just over $12 plus I added an 18% gratuity.

This place is a godsend for the neighborhood. Wide selection of fun and different flavors, including non-dairy options. Staff is super friendly. Atmosphere is great. Always a fun time.

Too much salt in espresso brownie ice cream made it inedible for me. First time ever in my 35+ year life, did I dislike an ice cream and I don’t have high standards.

Loved their king cake ice cream

Great Ice cream! 10/10 gingerbread cone was amazing. Came from Fort Lauderdale for vacation and found this spot on magazine street. Must try if you are in the area

Please ask for Lakeisha for your hookah girl and micherrie for you bartender they are the besttttttttt . Service great .hookah amazing.

Awesome spot! I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! Located in the Lower Garden District. Not your average ice cream shop whatsoever! Very unique flavors that will make your mouth water for more. Locally sourced, small batch, and made in house ice cream. I was very impressed with my experience here. A quaint little shop, tucked away off of Magazine Street. I ordered the Cinnamon Toast Crunch flavor and my girlfriend ordered the Brown Butter Cookie dough. Both flavors were instant nostalgia, whipping you back in time. One flavor to making cookies with my mother. The other to a quick morning breakfast on a warm fall morning. I highly recommend visiting this delicious gem if you are a local or tourist visiting for a few days. Hands down some of the best ice cream I’ve ever tasted. I wish I had more information on the ownership, but the two people working seemed very nice.

Delicious! Chai and strawberry were great

New Orleans hottest club is: @parishparlor Description: Club promoter @masonromain has gone all out. This place has everything: Lights, psychos, Furbies, screaming babies in Mozart wigs, sunburned drifters with soap sud beards. Soap sud beards? You know, that thing when the hobo becomes a rich man, so they take that big bubble bath? 🙊 The frozen cooked milk is tight too.

Wow! Spectacular. What I would create if I owned an ice cream shop. Wonderful flavors.

really the best ice cream in the city! sooo creamy and delightful

My favorite place for frozen treats in the Lower Garden District. They switch out the flavors seasonally so there’s always something new to try! They stay open fairly late which is a huge plus since most places in the area close relatively early. Give this place a try the next time you’re in the area!

Beautiful little shop with delicious flavorful ice cream that tastes like it's made with love. Absolutely loved it, even the vegan ice cream was crazy good!!

Damn good ice cream, damn good.

Yummy, original flavors of very dense ice cream. Brown butter cookie dough & banana foster are great flavors. Go for the waffle cone as well. Yum.

Such a cute local shop with fun flavors. Love the bananas foster and toasted coconut.

Delicious ice cream. Rich and creamy 😋 The staff is friendly. The atmosphere is cheery. There is a French vibe to the decor. I had the black cherry cheese cake, which was rich and flavorful. The espresso brownie is very good. The wedding cake is amazing!!

What a pleasant find within walking distance. Old fashioned vibes of ice cream parlor with a back of storefront patio. There were unusual flavors....saffron....and standards of homemade flavors. An entire firehouse krew came in for milkshakes and speeded off to a fire alarm in the firetruck parked out front. I will return for more enjoyment!

Got in a car accident (not my mom's fault at all, but she was driving not me so don't look at me) after getting ice cream here and despite the paper bag getting smashed a bunch, the ice cream only leaked a little from one, but barely from the other, so the cups here can take a beating. Also, I had left my bag and hat here and forgotten it so I was able to walk back and they had held onto it for me, so then I was able to put my ice cream in their fridge to keep it cold while I waited for my parents to text me how things were with like, AAA and insurance and stuff. Really nice people and amazing ice cream !!! Try the lemon ricotta honey, it's awesome !!!

Got the mint chip and cardamom saffron. I always stop at ice cream shops where they have a unique flavor that I particularly like. Mint tasted so fresh and like you were eating straight out of the ground. Cardamom being one of my favorite flavors, I was not disappointed. Very good!!! Sad I couldn’t try more flavors while in NOLA as this was my last day.

Great icecream, really unique flavors and icecream has a smooth, buttery texture. The employees were very welcoming and you get a lot of icecream for your money. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!

Best ice cream I have ever had! I picked the blackberry cheesecake in a waffle cone. It was sweet, creamy + tangy! And the graham cracker crust chunks with the waffle cone complemented the ice cream perfectly. Will definitely be back for more!

Best I cream in Nola! Best staff too!

Parish Parlor is hands down the best ice cream shop in New Orleans. I love the different ice cream flavor, but I'm also a vanilla ice cream lover at heart. The Parish Parlor vanilla ice cream is 100% the best vanilla ice cream I've ever had. Anywhere. Go here if you're adventurous and love trying thoughtful and unique ice cream flavors, but also go here if you want a classic done really, really well.

Good fable selections, with good taste. I had the mint and the double chocolate. The mint was really fresh with real mint in it, highly recommended. The double chocolate was rich with pieces of chocolate in it, also recommend. The inside looks nice, unfortunately there is no indoor seating. They did give free samples but the workers didn’t seem happy to help or talk about the flavours.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! Even during construction they’re still killing it. The Lavender London Fog really sets the mood for this great weather. Can’t wait for the next new flavor!

My favorite part of my trip, yum

BEST ICE CREAM IN THE CITY. And I’ve tried them all. Great atmosphere and amazing service.

Waffle cones were do Fresh and still warm. Ice cream was delicious. Guy working was very busy and still patient and respectful

Friendly staff, generous sampling, bold flavors and good selection. Very creamy ice cream but not to the point that it melts in seconds. What's not to like, for any ice cream aficionado? Must visit!

The ice cream was great and the cookies and cream was cookies and cookies!

Easy to find and cute atmosphere. I came here after ramen because the ramen spot didn't have dessert. There could be more diversity of flavors. I settled on roasted strawberry. That was good. I also liked the home made waffle cone. It had a nice crunch and it was fresh. Would come back!

A must visit! The in-house made ice cream sets the bar for others to aspire to.

Dropped in during a little visit to Magazine St. This is truly exceptional ice cream. Rivals the best I've had, including Toscanini's in Cambridge MA. Mexican chocolate has a real kick but at a level that's just right. Mix with peppermint bark and it's sublime. Did not have a chance for any extras on this visit but would add next time. If it's this good on a dreary mid-December day, I can't imagine what it's like on a warm summer afternoon. You won't regret it.

Yoo! New ice cream parlor on the block bringing new fun twists to the tables! They have a few twists on alcoholic drinks that are awesome as well as seasonal ice creams like this King Cake!! They also support other businesses like BiteSizeNOLA's pecans! @phidingthefam

Top notch homemade ice cream in unique and fun flavors. Waffle cones are yumm! The place smells amazing too. Go get you some!

Best ice cream by far that I have ever had. It is so creamy and fresh. Roasted strawberry and cookies and cream is the best combo. We would come here every night if it was closer to our house. Infinitely better than creole creamery. SO GOOD.
