Such a cute little place with the best local coffee on the island! They also have an assortment of breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, ice cream, floats, and milkshakes!! Their Louis Armstrong lunch sandwich is fantastic and the other two were phenomenal as well. They’re also serving Bubble Room cakes (by the slice or whole cake) while the Bubble Room is being renovated after the hurricane (supposed to be back open Spring 2024). We’ve been here every morning, best spot on the island!

We don't know how good it is at Boop's, but we do know they didn't have a good selection of ice cream when we visited today. We walked in with the family and the guy behind the counter apologized for being out of all ice cream flavors except a few that he mentioned. Those seemed to be the ones no one else wanted either though. It's an attractive little ice cream shop though and we will give it another try the next time we will be on Captiva Island. I'll update this review then too.

Boops has the BEST cakes….stopped in for take out of 4 slices for dessert back at our house. If you can only get one you MUST try the Tropical Breeze! These are very large slices, so get a couple of flavors to share.

Boop's is fabulous! Small Captiva Ice Cream Shop that survived Hurricane Ian. In addition to ice cream products, Boop's baked amazing cakes.I had Blueberry ice cream, waffle cone. It was gigantic and incredibly tasty. Excellent coffee. At Boop's, you can enjoy pics & posters of the cartoon icon, Betty Boop. By today's standards. Betty Boop is surprisingly risqué (especially for a 1930s cartoon).Parking: Parked in Bubble Room lot. Bubble Room is currently closed due to hurricane damage. When reopening, Boop's will have much more limited parking.

Since the Bubble Room is closed due to damage from Hurricane Ian, Boop's has been serving the famous Bubble Room cakes! Their ice cream is also delicious. This year we tried their breakfast and lunch sandwiches as well! Everything is great and the service is friendly and helpful!
