I think her response was snarky, too. That's why I wouldn't waste any time thinking about her. But to assume that all she wanted was free dinner is reading too much into it. No need to think about why she said what she said or what her intentions were. Just move on.
The way I took it is we really do not know exactly how she responded with the:
"my first meet suggestion and was like..." "Like" = the attitude of she might as well have said.
I can see how someone would would have a negative response to the ice cream idea. It wasn't awful but at the same time not a good suggestion for a first date either.
In the future I suggest the walk first then lunch. When you meet and discuss of course you can reverse the order.
As others mentioned I can see turning down ice cream and how it can be taken as a waste of time. Sounds like a 20 minute quick get-away and you have doubts from the start that it won't work out.
I don't see a difference between an ice cream date and a coffee date. They're both brief, meet-and-greet events set up to allow the 2 people to do a quick eval and decide if they want to continue or bail, as is the common procedure with OLD.
The lady was rude, there's no denying it, so I guess the OP found out what he needed to know about her without having to spring for the ice cream, lol.

yeah for now on I will connect it to something else

Agree totally. I don't get the judgement at all. Ice cream says something about your character that coffee and alcohol don't??

I had the same thought when I mentioned it. And actually I thought since it was the summer season she would be cool with it. I was doing coffee dates when the weather was colder but not so much in the summer. And if I do a coffee date in the summer I would chose a cafe that has outdoor seating
I posted this before but as a side note I once had a lady who once cleaned my teeth admit to me that she was on Match to get "free dinners from guys." That was a verbatim response. I was a bit stunned but I supposed I shouldn't have been.
It sounds like the subject in the opening post could be like that.
