Tomboi Artisan Ice Cream - Paisley, Ontario

Jamie O.

Excellent ice cream served up in a lovely little shop in the heart of Paisley. Among us, we tried a variety of flavours. Banana chocolate and White Lace were both highly rated. Well worth a stop in for a sweet cool treat in the heat of summer. Waffle cones were enjoyed by all.

Over the past few years, I've tried every flavor. I've never tried a flavor I didn't like. Everything is always delicious.
My favorite right now is the Paisley Paddler. The salted caramel is amazing.

I love that the owners often encourage consumers to dress up. Like this past weekend, they did an Alice in Wonderland themed event where the staff and customers were encouraged to wear a funky hat.

I drove an hour out of the way on my way home from Hope Bay just to try Tomboi and it was so worth it. I ordered the blueberry basil maple syrup icecream and it was perfectly balanced. Sometimes adding herbs to sweet things can completely overtake the flavour of everything else, but this had just a subtle hint of basil (you could even see the fresh basil in the icecream) which paired nicely with the blueberry. It was so good that I ended up going back for a second cone of the same flavour!

Fantastic and delicious ice cream made in-house! I've never had a freezer-burnt scoop here. Robb took a university course on ice cream and it shows.

They have very unique flavours, each with it's own story behind it. Tammie will guide you through their selection and find your perfect match. My favourite is Cuban Magic (Cuban coffee, rum & chocolate). They go the extra mile to make some vegan options, too.

Truly a must-stop!

I can’t say enough good things about this place. Their ice cream flavours are so well thought out and filled with quality ingredients. You can tell by the complex flavours that is is more than just your average ice cream shop. It’s a passion project! The time and R&D invested into developing each flavour, finding the right pairings, perfect ratios. Not relying on sugar as the main flavour drivers but really the essence of their ingredients. And to top it all off - such fair prices for the quality that they are delivering. I love the owner, Tammy’s passion in developing each flavour and I love the stories behind each flavour and can only hope to have a flavour of my own one day hahaha. Definitely would recommend to anyone of any age group.

The best artisan ice cream ever ! I tried vanila lavender & cuban rhum, and the scope was very big 🙂 I will back someday ..

Tomboi Ice Cream is superb!
Not only are the owners super-friendly, but they make their ice cream in-house! These aren't your run-of the mill ice creams, either. They're inventive, surprising, and always delicious! It seems as though they always have a new experiment on the go every time I'm there.
You will never find anybody more passionate about flavour than than the Tomboi crew. Not even Ben or Jerry.
If I could give this place more than five stars, I would! And if you're still reading the last few sentences of this review and haven't started your car to head to Paisley for a cone, you should stop reading now and get going!

I'm not a big ice cream person normally but stopped in on a road trip and had the best waffle cone I've ever had!!! The ice cream was so creamy and the flavors were awesome!!! I had the White Lace and it was the absolute best ice cream I've ever had!!
Highly recommend a visit!!!
