Richmondโ€™s Ironwood Plaza is turning into quite the dessert destination.

Alongside the upcoming arrival of D Spot Dessert Cafe, locals can now look forward to scooping ice cream at a brand new Baskin Robbins.

A Noms Mag community member (@yellywyw) spotted signage for the global ice cream chain going up beside Pho 37, in the unit that previously housed Kumon.

While the brand has not yet officially announced the location, it will mark the return of Baskin Robbins in Richmond after it shut down the Broadmoor outpost.

For those who may not know, Baskin Robbins is the worldโ€™s leading hard-scoop ice cream brand with nearly 8,000 stores across almost 50 countries.

Founded in 1945 by brothers-in-law Burton Baskin and Irvine Robbins, the company grew out of a shared love of ice cream and a belief that dessert should be fun and full of variety.

Over the years it became known for its famous โ€œ31 flavorsโ€ concept, pink tasting spoons, and as a gathering place for families celebrating holidays and everyday moments.

Today, the chainโ€™s menu spans far beyond just scoops.

Fan favourites include Pralines โ€˜n Cream, Jamoca Almond Fudge, and Chocolate Mousse Royale, while cakes, sundaes, and shakes round out the offerings.

With a rotating selection of flavours and seasonal specials, the brand continues to embrace its motto of โ€œscooping the joy.โ€

Currently, there are seven Baskin Robbins locations across BC, but this new Ironwood Plaza shop will be the brand’s return in Richmond.

Soon, locals will have a convenient spot to grab scoops, cakes, and sundaes without leaving the city.

Baskin Robbins will join other upcoming food spots in Richmond like D Spot Dessert Cafe, Fluffle Cafe, and The Food Court.
