Located a mile or two from the bustling York Beach boardwalk, Brown’s sits on a rocky outcropping that is bounded by a few of the area’s priciest seaside manors. With fresh fruit and other ingredients, this humble stand churns out ultra-premium confections that match the grandeur of the surrounding views of the shore. From the gravel parking lot, take the stairs down to the stand, or hop down the massive boulder that serves as Brown’s “natural” seating area.
| Overall Experience |  |
| Black Raspberry Ice Cream -
Delightfully gummy texture and just the right amount of flavor to make for a perfect scoop. |
|
| Blueberry Ice Cream -
Jam-packed with seemingly berries and boasting a natural blueberry taste, this was an exemplar in the fruit ice cream category. |
|
| Vanilla Ice Cream -
Given the strength of Brown's other flavors, this vanilla fell disappointingly flat. In the world of yogurt, this would be more of a plain than a vanilla flavor. |
 |
| Hot Fudge Sauce -
Likely the same hot fudge served up in many other local ice creameries, this thick, overly sweet concoction didn't excite taste buds. |
