This place is actually a full restaurant that serves incredible ice cream! Sweet Retreat in Alcoa (practically Maryville's next-door neighbor) is famous for their ice cream as part of their broader dessert menu. They also serve ramen, boba, poke bowls, and Korean-inspired dishes.
The ice cream is smooth and creamy with classic flavors and fun specialty options. Great for families who want to combine dinner with dessert in one stop.
Pro tip: Not a pure ice cream shop, but the ice cream quality is excellent, and the multi-purpose menu means everyone in the family finds something they love.
