Step into Lickity Split for a whimsically retro treat, where fresh frozen custard and nostalgic candies come together in a delightfully charming setting.
"Lickity Split is a retro-style sweets and ice cream shop in Edgewater that makes its own frozen custard fresh every day. There are only three flavors (chocolate, vanilla, and a specialty flavor that rotates every few weeks), all of which are fine on their own. But you need to order one of the concretes. There’s a long list of mix-ins to choose from (like cheesecake pieces and pretzels), along with pre-designed combinations like the completely reasonable Scarlet’s Last Fall, which involves an entire red velvet cupcake mixed in with the custard." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"Lickity Split is a retro sweets and ice cream shop in Edgewater that makes its own frozen custard fresh every day. And although this place is open year-round, it’s common knowledge that ice cream tastes better when you can eat it outside. There’s no danger it will melt during Fake Spring, so when the magical day comes when you hesitate before deciding if you need to put on gloves, head here. Order a sundae or one of the concretes—like the Scarlett’s Last Fall, which has an entire red velvet cupcake mixed in with vanilla custard." - adrian kane, john ringor, nick allen
"Lickety Split is a retro-styled sweets and ice cream shop that makes its own frozen custard fresh every day. They have candy brands you might have forgotten about, like Necco and Cow Tales, and antique metal signs decorating the space. It’s pretty theme-y and none of this stuff is actually vintage, but it’s still a charming spot. Also, the frozen custard is really good." - adrian kane, john ringor
"Decadent, rich custard powers Lickity Split’s sundaes and concretes, and the signature banana splits are sure to brighten anyone’s day. The shop has an additional outpost in West Ridge; in addition to custard, both sell a selection of unusual candy and other sugary treats." - Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
"Have a sweet tooth? Step on in to grab a scoop of ice cream or a creamy cupcake. You can even take a step back in time to the days of the soda fountain with their wide selection of specialty drinks. And if you're a fan of candy, take a stroll along the wall of gummies and chocolates. These guys specialize in providing everything sweet under the sun." - Sidekick Video
