23 Best Ice Cream Shops near Marion

“Always fast, friendly service. Always Delicious!“

“I think the banana split could use some nuts but it's all 100% Iowan food to the core, and I go as far to say, better than the old Maid-rite on the corner, better than Center Point Jonesy's, and the cheese fries are better than Iowa state fair fries. I was pretty young when I grew up with all of these classic Iowan flavors, but Barker's IS the flavor of my whole childhood and I'm glad I can have it again, exactly like it was. After all this time, I thought I was just getting old and all adults lose their sense of taste.... only thing missing is the Maid_rite chicken noodle soup 😩 and a post it note on the ceiling.“

“I've gotta say the service is ALWAYS with a smile, and kind. Theyre happy to wait for your order, happy to modify something if they can, and answer any questions. Tonight I ordered the corn nuggets, nostalgic classic for me, and a Banana Shake with added Peanut Butter Sauce. THREE WORDS. HO-LEE-COW. They just keep impressing with every visit. Theres a reason I come here every week. Thanks so much everyone!“

“Aubriee Dewitt was the employee who had helped me today and she was probably the kindest person I've ever interacted with. Thanks for saying I had a good personality. It really made my day. Came back recently and Jackson took my order. An absolute G fr. Marquise was involved as well. People like them always make my day fr.“

“I've been coming here for years. Great food and ice cream. service has always been very good!“

“I always get the double butter burger with cheese combo mustard and ketchup only with a side of fries and either a Dr Pepper or a Sprite for the drink. Culver's has never let me down. They always get my order right even down to the condiments. The fountain drinks are always good I've never received a pop that was flat or pure carbonation that happens at gas stations all the time. The staff are friendly. And it's always busy there so that tells you something.“

“This place is a hidden gem! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Whether it’s a quick bite or a special night out, this restaurant never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Almost Famous in Newbo has never disappointed, but my experience today far exceeded anything I could have imagined! I went in with a very specific need--9 bags of the Crunch Berry popcorn mix. I'm attending a conference next week and need to bring a snack that represents where I live. Almost Famous is my go-to and popcorn is much easier to travel with than a case of Busch Light and Casey's pizza! There were no mini bags and no Crunch Berry on hand. The sweet gal working the counter helped me brainstorm alternatives, then suggested I talk to the owner who happened to be there. He said he has some at their production facility a few minutes away if I had time to follow him over there. He took time out of his weekend to help me out AND sent me with a few extra bags for my kids! I'm so thankful for the awesome small businesses and business owners in this community! Go getcha some popcorn!!!“

“I went here for the first time this morning! Such a great place, yummy food and such friendly people! One of my new favorite spots to go!“

“This Dairy Queen is awesome! There's only one person working, but she is so sweet and polite and friendly and respectful. No matter how long the line is of people waiting, she remains calm. The people usually talk with each other about their DQ experiences and it goes fast.“

“Came at around 4:50pm, then a whole two 4-5 person families followed right after, and I felt bad. I didn't know what I wanted particularly and the little blonde cashier/ice cream lady there was so sweet and didn't rush me and when I remembered at the last moment to ask for less choco chips she gave me the perfect combination for the treat I was looking for!!“

“I love Culver’s restaurants but was disappointed in the Hiawatha location this evening. We stopped there just because they had Creamy Lemon Crumble for the flavor of the day, but it turned out to be Creamy Vanilla Crumble. We couldn’t taste any lemon, though there was lots of cookie crumble in it.“

“Amazing!! We had the Caribbean meatballs, brisket, mac n cheese and baked beans and cannot express how DELICIOUS it all was!! Tender meat, so much flavor in every single thing we ate!! Also had the cucumber salad and for a simple dish, it was so refreshing! Highly recommend and can't wait to try more!“

“This was the worst pizza I have ever had“

“I couldn't rave more about our recent experience! We had met up with a friend and we each have a rambunctious 3 yr old. The owners were on site working and the lady couldn't have been nicer, understanding and even a little playful with our little ones! It put us at ease and really made us feel welcome!!“

“very friendly staff, especially cashier Jordan, who took our order and was very kind to my son on his birthday.“
