There’s an absolutely adorable soup and ice cream shop in Cranston (heyyy, pink-y red interior, gorgeous white counter, and neon sign on the back wall) that just opened last week, and we popped in the other day.

One of my brother’s has been forwarding me email blasts from Lily’s Ladle (bone broth based soup as well as some veggie options that you can get delivered to your door which is fab for those who don’t want to go thru the 20 step process of actually making it at home) for quite a while and the most recent one was all about the GRAND OPENING of their charming brick and mortar called Lily’s Soups And Scoops on Broad Street.

This place is so darn CUTE and for my fellow Seinfeld fans, the polar opposite of the infamous soup restaurant that Kramer, Jerry, Sheila (aka, Shmoopie; aka, Alexandra Wentworth), George, and Elaine visit in season 7, episode 6.

When the hubs and I were there the other day, their freezer was stocked with a variety of Lily’s sips (beef and chicken bone broth and a tomato based vegan option which had my name all over it, wink) as well as a ton of Warwick Ice Cream. PS — Speaking of which I met the head of Warwick Ice Cream and toured their headquarters in the Spring and was thoroughly impressed. Also, if you haven’t tried their MANGO SORBET, you are missing out.

Whether you want to grab some to-go or order a cone, cup or affogato (espresso poured over ice cream), Lily’s has you covered. I got the Peaches N Cream; and it was beyond delightful on a hot, humid July day in the Ocean State.

Find Lily’s Soups And Scoops at 1850 Broad Street in Cranston, Rhode Island. They are closed July 4, 2023, but definitely check out their site and social for hours of operation and such.
