A local New Zealand-style ice cream shop is bringing its signature scoops to Brighton.
Far Out Ice Cream is preparing to open its fourth shop in the former Energize juice bar space at 1930 Beacon St, near Boston College in Cleveland Circle. Once it debuts, the new outpost will join existing Far Out locations at Time Out Market in Boston’s Fenway neighborhood, in Brookline near Coolidge Corner, and at Cambridgeside in East Cambridge.
“We’re very grateful and proud to be joining the neighborhood and to be part of such a vibrant local community,” wrote co-founder and president August Radbill in an email to What Now Boston.
The front of the approximately 1,400-square-foot shop will be dedicated to serving customers, while the back-of-house operation will quietly power the company’s growing events and catering arm.
The menu will mirror the lineup of offerings served at the original Brookline location, featuring a range of New Zealand-style ice cream made by blending creamy scoops with real frozen fruit.
Guests can choose fruits like strawberry, blueberry, mango, or kookaberry (Far Out’s signature super combo of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries), then customize their creation with an ice cream base, preferred size, and a selection of mix-ins and toppings such as chocolate flakes, graham cracker crumbs, rainbow sprinkles, or a drizzle of salted caramel.
“We’re excited to bring those favorites to Cleveland Circle,” Radbill said. “We’re also exploring some special collaborations with Boston College and its students, which we hope to share more about soon.”
There’s still plenty of work to be done before the shop’s doors officially open. If all goes to plan, though, Cleveland Circle will be scooping up Far Out’s fruit-forward creations sometime in the coming weeks.
