Note: Airbnb has some issues and keeps changing the location to the Ferry Building. There is one there, but there is *also* one at 24th and Harrison, just a few minutes' walk away. With that said ... Awesome ice cream! Too close to burn off any calories going to/from ... still trying to work out if that's a good thing ... :)
