You know how everybody has their own opinion of "the best ice cream place"? You are allowed to have an opinion, but it's wrong if it isn't Sammy's Scoops in Portland.

Kidding. There's so many good ice cream shops across Maine and we literally all scream for ice cream.

Sammy's Scoops Portland, Maine

I just love the story that lead me to discovering this little window because it had nothing to do with social media which is always a win in my book now-a-days.

I was on my hot girl walk with my dogs and their noses lead me to look up from the sidewalk on Forest Ave. Low & behold there stood a tiny little window that reminded me of my childhood with a handwritten sign saying Sammy's Scoops.

Green Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Near Me

The reason I loved them immediately? GREEN MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP. Only a few of you will understand this, but the few that do know that it's a game changer.

Frozen Yogurt Shops Maine

Even better. They've got mint chocolate chip froyo (still green) just healthier. LET'S GO!

Lib's Dairy Treats

While you're here, if you haven't already been to Red's or Lib's Dairy Treats, let me put you onto the creamy magic. Plus they have a pup cup menu which automatically gives them a spot at the top of my list.
