Earnest Drinks is the delicious Kendall Square concoction of Somerville-based Gracie's Ice Cream.

Overall the space was a very limiting space, so we had to pack a lot of functional and fun punch within it. The back-of-house is tidy and super efficient, while the ordering line and counter anchor the space with the all-important ice cream dipping cabinet. Fun illustrations sprinkle across the space, speaking to the brand’s playful vibe, while Dolly Parton dominates the bathroom in all her glory. Like many ice cream parlors, there are a few stools to hang out on inside, but seating is primarily outside on the patio for maximum sippage and socialization.
