made by marcus microcreamery

the unicorn at @madebymarcus. i'm always surprised with the massive lineups outside #madebymarcus... even when it's freezing outside. the icecream is amazing but not super cheap. you're looking at $7-10.

awesome tastes ice cream. i got the earl grey one, it is very good! but i like the village one better.
however, the green tea matcha is superb!! recommend it if you like hot green tea!

the ice cream here is amazing! we usually get plain scoops because it is so yummy, but today we decided to try sundaes, i got the breakfast of champions, which was amazing! the cereal milk ice cream was so good. my daughter got the unicorn sundae and she was thrilled, she loved every bite of it. highly recommend!

the best ice cream in calgary! so flavourful and unique. every flavour i’ve had here is excellent, highlights are the whisky hazlelnut praline and the happy camper sundae. we don't go here often because it gets insanely busy on nice weekends (we waited fifty minutes at 9:30 last night), so if you can go during a weekday that’s better. the staff are upbeat though and work as fast as they possibly can.

hands down the best cookies n' cream ice cream i've ever had! they give you a lot for a single scoop, and they frequently update their menu with a bunch of unique flavours. this place is packed no matter what season it is because it's definitely worth a try!

sweet tooth lovers unite!! mouthwatering ice cream you can even top with a giant roasted marshmallow! you'll notice the long line up to get into the store as all are hand-scooped and made in front of you. can buy tubs to bring home as well. must visit in calgary!!

their ice-creams are not bad, i just really don’t like one of the cashiers in this shop being dishonest to me about the loyalty card and she still owes me one stamp! she said kid’s scoop doesn’t get a stamp but the other cashiers said it gets and it is also written on the loyalty card that collect 7 stamps after buying any ice cream scoop or sundae and get 8th one free. i live nearby and i am a regular guest, that’s why i was interested in collecting stamps. and i think they should mention the promotion to any customer since it is going on. but if they let me feel uncomfortable, i would probably go a bit further to village icecream as i heard it’s the best in town!

i'm not a huge ice cream fan, nor do i have a sweet tooth.

so when we arrived at marcus, i had my reservations.  however, when our order was fulfilled, my reservations quickly dissipated.  i ordered the taber sweet corn/blackberry ice cream with waffle cone, and it was simply delicious.

the ice cream had a very nice hint of corn taste, and none of the seeds from the blackberry.  i really enjoyed the ice cream, and would not hesitate to go back.

this place is small, with limited seating inside, but we lucked out and most of the patrons just bought the ice cream and left.

cute little place. went here on a rainy day and the line was extending from inside to 10 people outside. happy i tried it, it's different from all the others just not my all time favourite.

i had the roasted strawberry buttermilk and the sweet taber corn blackberry on a waffle cone. i found it to be less creamy and flavourful than village ice cream and the waffle cone was really really sweet (too sweet for my taste). i also found the service to be so-so, not as friendly as other ice cream place in the city. the sundaes are very "instagrammable" though.

cute little shop with pretty good ice cream. looong line though. i guess that is to be expected on a hot saturday afternoon! i got a scoop of toasted coconut mango (a vegan ice cream) and lemon curd blueberry. coconut was okay, didn't blow me away, but the lemon curd blueberry was pretty delicious.... sooo refreshing! i do prefer village ice cream, but this place is a solid option for artisanal ice cream in yyc!

went to made by marcus thursday for the first time and i was sooo excited! after a 15 minute wait in line (which was probably much shorter than usual since it was a bit cold that night) we were finally able to place our order. i went with one scoop of cookies and cream in a waffle cone and my fiancé got a scoop of espresso almond toffee in a cup. i was surprised at how generous the portion was, they really filled up the cone which was awesome! the first bite was delicious! i could tell it was made with good quality ingredients. by the second bite i already felt sick of it and the more i ate the less i liked it. it was just soooo sweet! i ended up only finishing up to the top of the cone (and had a couple bites of ice cream with cone to see if the cone balanced the sweetness - it didn't, it might have even been sweeter) and finally i had to throw it out. i don't think i've ever in my life thrown out ice cream... my fiancé's espresso ice cream was also really good on the first bite and then just got way too sweet after awhile so he didn't finish his either. i really wanted to love this place but i doubt we'll ever go back. i saw lots of people eating sundaes and they were so beautiful so props to made by marcus for creating some seriously beautiful treats!

it took me forever to try made by marcus because it is always lined up - and i mean out the door and to the end of the block, but now i know it's for good reason. the menu isn't extensive but it has just the right amount of classics (vanilla, chocolate, etc) and innovative flavors (lemon curd blueberry, toasted coconut mango, etc).

a single scoop is $5, until you realize that it actually means they give you 2 scoops of ice cream. confusing, yes, but then the girls behind the counter advise that you can order two flavors with each single scoop - ahhh it all makes sense now. i tried the lemon cured blueberry and a thai basil passion fruit (? i can't remember exactly but it was delicious regardless).

the place is modern and welcoming. there's limited seats inside and only 2 benches and a couple of stools on the patio. service was friendly and offered us tasting samples why we looked.

would recommend going, just prepare yourself to wait.

probably some of the best ice cream in the city. fresh flavours and in-house made marshmallows. the soft serve is very rich and great mouth feel. the scoops are quite large and the cones are made fresh.

hands down the best place to get ice cream in calgary. many unique flavours and very friendly staff. great vibes, only wish it was open a little later as it is usually packed right at 10 pm near close on week days!
