Hanging out at the Pearl for the day? Head over to Lick Honest Ice Creams and check out what they have to offer!  We love to grab a scoop or two and head down to the Camden Street Bridge to watch the bats take flight.

Lick has some great flavors,  too! One of our favorites is Texas Sheet Cake,  a chocolate ice cream with a swirl of sweet pecan icing…  very Texan if you ask us!  They also have some fun, funky flavors like Roasted Beets with Fresh Mint, and Goat Cheese with Thyme & Honey.
