Graeter's Ice Cream

The bakery has a lot of great treats for everyone; donuts, cupcakes, cheese crowns, etc. The best part of this place is the friendly employees. When I dropped the bottle cap of my Diet Coke on the floor, a nice man working the bakery offered to clean the cap (it landed where the seal was) and gave it back to me wrapped in a napkin. I wasn’t expecting that level of customer service, but I am glad I came here!

I've been to this Graeter's many times over the years. The service is always friendly and fast even when the lines are long in the summers. Graeter's ice cream is stellar in its own and I haven't had a flavor I didn't like. What sets them apart is the small batch method which translates into a balanced ice cream between creaminess, sweetness and texture. The chocolate chips are big, literal chips off a hunk of chocolate. The cookies in cookies and cream are sometimes about a whole cookie. Raspberry chocolate chip is an original and worth a try at least. Otherwise their standard flavors stand above other companies and their signature flavors, seasonal and limited editions are worth a try. Buckeye Blitz if you like peanut butter and chocolate is a personal favorite as is a flavor I just tried, Buttery Popcorn.

We took a friend from out of town here over fathers day weekend. She is lactose intolerant so I was not sure what we would find. I was excited to learn that they have lactose free flavors (cookie and cream, black raspberry chip and vanilla ) that is made with lactose free milk. Our friend said most other places try to use other items which makes the ice cream taste odd. She said it tasted exactly like ice cream. We even bought several pints for her to take home.

Follow me for the next adventure! I really really like Graeter's Ice Cream 🍨 I stopped in to give myself a treat after a long week. I ordered a one scoop hot fudge sundae and received one generous scoop of ice cream with equally generous toppings. This location also has baked goods such as cakes and breakfast pastries. You can also find a few gifty type items and some cute greeting cards. If you have never been to Graeter's, give it a try. You won't regret it! ⬇️ If you found this review helpful, hit the 👍
