Crank & Boom is a must when I visit family in Lexington. Their shop is a great atmosphere and their ice cream is always top notch. My favorite is the collab with Martine’s Bakery pistachio cake.

After our pizza at Goodfellow, we walked down the street to Crank and Boom ice cream. They are located in Lexington’s distillery district. We each picked our flavor and enjoyed. Great ice cream. Lots of nice art work on the building exterior.

Neat place in a very cool place. The ice cream is excellent. So many flavors. A scoop is a generous amount for about $4.00.

Delicious Ice Cream, Many Flavors. I went to the Distillery district on Manchester. I ordered cookies and cream and it was just superb. I was also interested in the coffee flavored with stout beer- next time.

Good ice cream in a weird area. The place was very small. With a name like that, I thought there would be more to it. It was okay.

Great ice cream with some different flavors. Enjoyed a break on a hot afternoon while wating on our bourbon tour. Would go back when in the area.

It is really tricky figuring out where to turn in to get here, but the ice cream is worth it. We went super generic with chocolate with homemade cones and sprinkles, but the chocolate was SO flavorful and the cones were so delicious. The portions...were a bit obscene, too much for an afternoon treat. But delicious ice cream and super friendly service.More

Craft ice creams at their finest. Limited exciting menu. Staff is solid grab a flight and share. If you are adventurous grab a few with booze for a twist relaxed atmosphere in small shopping center could be better but very decent I most certainly will...return if in the areas.More

The staff was amazing! Ice cream was amazing! There was a long line, but the ice cream slingers were fast, so the line went quick!

This location was a little tricky to find but well worth the trip. The Bourbon & Honey was maybe the best Sunday that I have ever tasted. You will not be disappointed with their ice cream
