Creative deli-style subs and inventive ice cream in a casual counter-service spot; excellent flavors, moderate pricing, but expect crowds and occasional service hiccups.
Why it gets a B- for overall quality
Good Behaviour Ice Cream and Sub Sandwiches delivers strong food quality with inventive subs and memorable ice cream flavors that justify its loyal following, but inconsistent execution on portions and delivery prevents a higher grade. The neighborhood gem appeal and friendly service make it a solid neighborhood spot, though cramped seating and occasional operational chaos during peak hours limit its standing as a destination venue.
Restaurant Summary
A neighborhood counter spot where subs meet scoops, this place feels warm and bustling without trying too hard. Reviewers describe patient staff walking them through flavors and quick service most of the time, though peak hours can feel a bit chaotic. One diner summed it up: the brisket was tender and rich, and the cones keep families lingering on the little patio. The cooking leans creative and ingredient-driven: deli classics dialed up with smoked gouda, bagna cauda, and pesto mayo, plus pints in flavors like Black Garlic Miso Caramel and Hong Kong Milk Tea. It is not fussy, but it is thoughtful—best for folks who enjoy modern twists on comfort food rather than strict traditionalism. Families will do well here. There is a kids menu with simple subs and grilled cheese, and plenty of ice cream options including vegan sorbets. Seating is limited, so plan for counter service and possibly eating outside when it is nice. Portions can vary, but most kids just care about the cone at the end.
