About

Afters is more than just ice cream. It's a lifestyle. Our handcrafted ice cream and signature flavors are our foundation that keeps our brand apart from the rest. Less talk, more ice cream. Afters Ice Cream was made as an outlet for creativity through flavors and design. Unique flavors like Milk and Cereal, Cookie Monster and Jasmine Milk Tea fuel the creative kitchen to keep pushing the limits of ice cream flavors. The Milky Bun™ is here to rock your taste buds. The ultimate mix of a glazed bun with one of our unique ice creams stuffed in between. Not only that but we seal it back up and heat the outside for this hot cold effect that can't be found anywhere else.

“Ice cream donuts make it worth visiting”
Google review · Sep 2026

1 out of 5 stars

“My friends and I stopped by for a late-night snack and were excited to get some ice cream. The ice cream itself was delicious. Unfortunately, the customer service left us disappointed. When we entered, we felt that we were met with a lack of warmth and friendliness. I greeted the girl with blonde hair with a “Hi,” but felt uncomfortable when my greeting was not acknowledged. It also seemed as though no one was eager to assist us, and we had to initiate the interaction ourselves. The one person who did make us feel welcome was the sweet young woman with black hair. She was kind, helpful, and provided the friendly service we were hoping for. Overall, the ice cream was great, but the customer service experience was disappointing. I hope the staff can put a side the attitude and work on creating a more welcoming and positive environment for customers in the future.”
