What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Purity Ice Cream Co. nailed the experience. We stopped by after dinner, just an hour before closing, and the energy was still high—lively, welcoming, and very much the night is still young kind of vibe. I picked a gorgeous-looking ice cream that tasted just as good as it looked. Sitting there with my husband, enjoying ice cream in -2°C weather, felt oddly perfect. Cold outside, cozy inside, and a simple little ice-cream date done right. Definitely a place that turns a quick stop into a memorable moment."
"I love eating here!!! The make your own burgers, with all the different types of fries. Today I was serviced by Mario. He was very nice pleasant professional food was amazing and cut thoroughly. Thank you for all your hard work."
"Purity is our go to ice cream place in Ithaca. Samantha was so kind and helpful to find flavors that I like which was boomberry and green tea combo. You must try the place if you’re visiting Ithaca!"
"Phenomenal. The best ice cream I’ve ever had. Easily. More than 40 flavors and it’s a whole different level of creamy and smooth. There’s a reason it’s a local fave since 1932!"
"We went there for dinner with family we were visiting. We keep to a Vegan diet and our daughter Vegetarian, while her husband is omniviore. All of were able to get dinner and ice cream treats afterwards. Our Vegan diet is about personal health so we are more flexible than some others might be about the fact that the Vegan burgers and veggies are cooked on the same grill as meat. For the same reasons we did not check to see if the ice cream cones were Vegan. Anyone who is concerned about such details should check and might end up eating elsewhere depending on what they find out. Alternatively, if one orders ice cream in a cup that should be acceptable for most people who keep to a Vegan diet. Our food order tonight: White Bean Lentil Burger: Whole Wheat Roll, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Chipotle aiolin, *Fried Onions, Jalapeno, No Extras Add Side Field Green Salad, honey mustard, No Drink Crispy Chicken Cobb Salad; Fried chicken breast, hard boiled egg, field greens, roma tomato, cucumber, avocado, carrots, choice of dressing Balsamic Vinegrette Dressing White Bean Lentil Burger: Whole Wheat Roll, *Grilled Bell Peppers, *Grilled Mushrooms, *Grilled Onions, No Extras Add Side Field Green Salad, Basalmic, No Drink Black Bean Burger: scratch made vegan black bean burger has a touch of BBQ flavor.

We liked the black bean burger better in terms of texture but both were mushy, and didn't have much flavor. We probably would not get either again. The sweet potato fries were good, not great. The side salads were surprisingly generous. Everyone liked the ice cream. The Vegan ice cream all were very good. It is possible to get Vegan shakes and vegan sundaes,which we did not try tonight."
"A brisk morn ushered the canal-travelling Xonuts crew to seek refuge in the warm comfort of the Neutral Ground Coffeehouse. The cozy establishment smelled..."
