Try A Tasty Ice Cream Taco At Tricycle Ice Cream In Rhode Island

Once upon a time, in 2014, an ice cream cart started popping up at Providence events and farmers markets, peddling delicious homemade ice cream sandwiches and unique, irresistible ice cream tacos. Needless to say, it was an instant hit, earning an impressive amount of local press and loyalty. As of last year, Tricycle Ice Cream has a storefront… and we can’t think of a better way to welcome the return of ice cream season.

Tricycle Ice Cream is located at 70 Battey Street in Providence, where it has been since its official opening in January of 2019.
