Crema's Take

This charming Medford spot is equal parts ice cream parlor and casual gathering place, where Marco and Maggie's genuinely warm service sets the tone for an experience that feels more like visiting friends than grabbing a quick bite. Their silky, perfectly balanced house-made ice cream is the star, but the real magic happens when you linger over a thoughtfully made sandwich or creative milkshake while soaking in the community vibe—complete with rotating arts and crafts pop-ups that give you a reason to stay long after your cone melts.

We went down to grab a pint of ice cream to try out our new drink mixer. Marco and Maggie were great and gave an amazing recommendation for our milkshakes! Awesome place!

I love Colleen’s! Great ice cream, friendly staff, and the place has a nice charm to it too. They also have great events like arts & crafts pop-ups so you can come for the food and stay for the fun!

What a cute place for a lunch date or a hangout! We came by for some early dinner and had a wonderful date. The sandwiches are delicious, and we loved that tax is included (so kids can come in and buy ice cream with a $5 bill, is what we were told). It's clear this is also a popular hang out with kids and teens. My fiance and I walked in right as a birthday party was wrapping up - the whole space has such great energy. Neon fans will love to see the genuine neon "Open" and "Colleen's" signs.

This ice cream is truly amazing! The texture is silky smooth, and it's not overly sweet—definitely the best ice cream I've ever had. After dinner, I can't help but want to go back for a scoop; it's the perfect dessert. Especially love the chocolate and coffee ice cream.

It was 102 degrees outside today, so I thought I would chill out at the local ice cream parlor. I hadn't eaten so I thought I'd eat and review, I decided to try the Rueben as it's one of my favorite sandwiches and the mac n cheese, because who doesn't like a good mac n cheese? Rueben - One of the best Rueben sandwiches I have had in a long time, slightly toasted but still refreshing, on a day where it is 102 outside and like 90+ in a room with no AC this was a fantastic sandwich. The sandwich wasn't even drenched in Thousand Island dressing like so many bad Rueben places do, to mask the sour kraut, but this place does it right. The Rueben came along with two sweet pickle slices and I must say with how delicious they were I wish it came with more of them. 5/5 stars. Environment - Nice and Cool as you expect from an Ice Cream parlor its heavily Air Conditioned which is amazing to feel on a 102-degree day. 5/5 stars. Mac N Cheese - This was not good, the noodles were hard and the cheese sauce tasted grainy, The Mac N Cheese tasted like it was frozen and heated up in the microwave, I didn't eat more than enough to confirm the taste. 1/5 Stars. Simply put do not go hear for the Mac N Cheese, it sounds ridiculous like its an Ice Cream Parlor, Why would I get the MnC? Well, I for one usually get things that sound problematic and sound like they wouldn't taste good. I also try to get things I think that kids would get and I'm glad I did. The Mac N Cheese here is a waste of money, if you want good MnC go to Wellington's Pizzeria down the street, the best Mac N Cheese I have ever had. Go here to be cool stay out of the heat, and hang out while eating sandwiches and Ice Cream. With so many customers and fast and kind service, this is the place to be on a hot day. Total Cost $22 for $12 Rueben and $10 Mac N Cheese. Total Stars 11/15.
