“Really good ice cream. Me and friends went here today since everything was closed and we thought this place would be mid.But, man this ice cream really is good. I would say it’s even on par with basking robins or prolly even way better than that. I would recommend the dark cherry and coconut scoops which was recommended to me by one of the employees. Also, I gotta say this is also the only place in Chicago that is very hospitable and service is amazing. The employees gave us many flavors to try before proceeding with our order.Vegetarian options: Vegan marshmallows“
“So many delicious flavors, it was hard to pick. Our family of four enjoyed our different choices. It's a beautiful ambiance for the beginning of summer with indoor and outside space. Staff was very friendly and helpful in helping us decide which flavors to try. Def recommend and we'll be back to try new flavors!“
“The place is cozy and welcoming, the aroma inside is divine. We went in for a quick to go order of freshly baklava and there were so many varieties.Husband and I will definitely be back to enjoy more than the desserts. A perfect place for a coffee date.“
“A friend told me about this neighborhood gem. I'm blown away by the friendly atmosphere and staff. If you're looking for something special and authentic this is the place to visit. Everything made in-house and freshly prepared with care and love“
“Everytime I stop by for a snack, they always welcome you with a big smile, they are very friendly, customer service is great, love coming to this michoacana ?. Love the strawberry yogurt with mix fruits. Thank you for your great customer service.“
“I went through the drive-thru to get a ?RAINBOW CONE? for my birthday. It was my first time ever, and I was not disappointed!!!There are several flavors of ice cream available by the pint or quart. They pack it FRESH. I bought a quart of the Lemon Raspberry Swirl and a quart of the Big Muddy for later. YUMMY!!! They even included cones wrapped in paper that could be used for sharing.The corner location at the traffic signal on Roosevelt Road makes for easy entering/exiting. Parking is plentiful.????My ?RAINBOW CONE? on the waffle cone was fantastic!!! My only difficulty was NOT trying every flavor. I'll be back!!!????Parking: Parking is plentiful in the parking lot area.Kid-friendliness: ?YES!!!?“
“Awesome place for smoothies and frozen yogurt , haven’t had a bad experience in the year I been going , always has the freshest fruit and everything is clean and on point , definitely recommend to anyone , owner is super nice and easy going as “
“Delicious cookies! My favorite is chocolate chip! Staff is super friendly and the place looks super clean. Recommend 100%.Parking: There is plenty of parking spaces.Kid-friendliness: Kids can actually see the staff baking and packaging the cookies.Wheelchair accessibility: The store is spacious for wheelchair.“
“Best local spot for gelato or food!! They always have a huge variety of gelato and ice cream flavors. I love coming here, the portions are always big as well. Their food is served hot and tasty! I also really like the small and intimate environment. I always have great service!“
“I was told this Dairy Queen was at this location for over 65 years and had that fantastic atmosphere for my day gone by. I enjoyed my ice cream treat and so did my wife and we were very happy coming to this location and we'll again. This location at a narrow parking lot in back because it was on a major corner but I no problem in parking or enjoying my Ice cream.“
“It was our first time yesterday and everyone there was so nice & welcoming! I believe the owners were there cleaning and just being present in their shop. They were so friendly when stopping to talk to customers. The coffee is amazing but they also have breakfast/lunch sandwiches! The Benedict Arnold? 10/10 the biggie shakes? 10/10 & you’re supporting a small business!“
“Really enjoyed this unique coffee and gelato place. Not only was the latte perfect, but the gelato was also really fresh and they had plenty of flavors. I saw others getting Nutella crepes that also looked amazing. Will most definitely come back!“
“When I come in to Chicago to visit family and friends I always make an attempt to come here to eat. Great food and atmosphere. It is a very tiny place inside a bowling alley but very busy because of the staff and food. 5 Sears Towers because after five years he is still consistent.“
“I love this place and appreciate having an Italian bakery being near by. An authentic one serving lots of delicious baked item and Gelato /sorbetto,coffee. I was sad becaus3 a couple times I ordered some pasteri3s,they were old and also the Gelato and sorbetto were freezer burned. I guess I'll stick with the cannoli which is made fresh and probably in summer the Gelato will be fresher.“
“I've never had a bad experience here at Crumbl Cookies!Since moving to the area a few months ago, this has been our go-to Crumbl Cookies spot. We get it probably once a month - yikes! Every time here, though, has been the opposite of yikes - the staff is friendly, the cookies are fresh, it's never busy, always clean, and there's ample parking outside. At my old Crumbl Cookies location in Schaumburg, it was always a tight squeeze and hustle-and-bustle situation inside the store and in the parking lot because it was so busy. This location is bigger with more parking, but it's never busy which I like. Let's be real, Crumbl Cookies are freaking good. There's 4 rotating flavors every single week and 2 constant flavors (chocolate chip & sugar). I always love the chocolate chip and will get it in replacement of one of the rotating cookies when I get a 4-pack. In my opinion the warm cookies are always better than the chilled, but some of the chilled ones are great, too. They also sometimes include a mystery cookie which yes, is a mystery when you get it. I love that they do that, I think it's a fun concept especially if you really don't know which other cookie to get or want to try something new.There's TONS of flavors in general at Crumbl, I can't even select my favorite one. When they have these flavors, I do really enjoy their cinnamon swirl cookie, s'mores, cinnamon fry bread, dulce de leche, Biscoff lava, chocolate cake, buckeye brownie, and basically any flavor that has cinnamon or caramel in it, or that's super chocolatey and gooey. You already know I'll be coming to this location again!“

“Do NOT sleep on the pineapple Dole whip or even just visiting Hole in the Wall! It is so, so delicious, especially the pineapple Dole whip (did I already say that?). It's so good that my chocolate-loving 5-year-old asked to go back before they close for the season for more pineapple Dole whip, because it in her words "It's even more yummy than chocolate!" Hurry, & stop by before they close for the season on October 8.“
“Great tasting assortment, really reasonable pricing, particularly on cakes to go (try it for your next b-day party or such), but most of all super-kind, well-mannered, genuinely courteous staff - it's always a pleasure to stop by. I'm glad that they are in the neighborhood. Kids love it.“

“"Hey everyone! I recently had the chance to try the strawberry ice cream at Rita's, and let me tell you, it was absolutely amazing! ?? The flavor was so rich and creamy, and you could really taste the freshness of the strawberries. The staff was super friendly and helped me pick the perfect flavor. If you're a fan of strawberry ice cream, you definitely need to give Rita's a try. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! ♥️“
“You will be part of the family here! Everyone is welcome and the owner will go out of her way to make you feel like her family the moment you walk in the door. By far the best gelato I have ever had! The owner Antonella could not have been more welcoming. I observed her interacting with children and she made them feel so special. The hand crafted affogato was out of the world. The shop is so cute and welcoming, perfect for relaxing and enjoying a delicious treat. We will be back soon! AMAZING!!! In the meantime, I was sure to bring some gelato home until I can get back!“
“Quiet ice cream place stuck in a strip mall but find it!! Ice cream is delish with lots of kid friendly flavors, great prices and the employee was patient, kind and helpful to my 2 littles.Kid-friendliness: Kind to children, kid sizes, kid flavors, candy eye balls, sprinkles“
“The shop is located right downtown elmhurst. Perfect for those evening summer strolls! The customer service is great. The people working just want to provide you with a great experience and give you some good ice cream. The treats themselves are on the pricier side, but they are really good as well. We have had sorbet and ice cream and both were really good.“
“More than helpful on the different sweets,Cannoli's were delicious and made to order, fresh! Everyone friendly, took my order with a smile...and a cookie for my grandson! :)Kid-friendliness: Person who took my order offered my grandson a cookie, sweet.“
“This is a gem, and I'm lucky to live near it. You don't find an ice cream shop like this in every town. Friendly staff, an excellent product, and a charming atmosphere. Bring your out of town guests for a treat, bring the kids on a hot day, or just get a little something for yourself - you won't regret it.“
“I come here often, and the cookies & service is always exceptional.HOWEVER, I want to make note of my experience on Friday night of 2/23/2024. The staff that night provided the best service I've experienced anywhere in years. Their phenomenal energy and service always makes my visit memorable. The two working tonight are by far my favorite across the board. Boss, if you're seeing this, please give them the full raise! They're the best ?“
“They always take the time to make everything so good! Favorite spot for ice-cream in Dowers. The waffles are also outstanding. Highly recommend getting the ice cream and waffle combos they are all so good.Vegetarian options: 2 or 3 Vegan OptionsDietary restrictions: Vegan options“
“This is a great place to pick up a quick lunch. Prices are fair and I love that the soups constantly differ. Usually when I go I pick up a cold soup from the fridge as well! I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad soup. Sandwiches are a bit lacking in my opinion. Ice cream is also amazing. Not the biggest space so I usually treat it as a grab and go more but there are a few tables available.“
“We visited an ice cream shop for the first time in Park Ridge, and what an experience it turned out to be! The establishment boasts a modern and impeccably clean ambiance. The array of ice creams and donuts, coupled with a plethora of toppings, was truly impressive. Additionally, their menu offers a delightful selection of sundaes, shakes, and floats. Opting for two scoops each, we found it to be more than sufficient to satisfy our sweet cravings. If you find yourself in the area, I highly recommend paying this place a visit. The delicious flavors are definitely worth trying!“
“Insanely yummy, creamy and massive soft serve with chocolate hardshell dip on waffle cone (with a little up charge).My friends enjoyed their scooped ice creams (probably a pint's worth per 2 scoop order) too!Prices are very reasonable for the amount of ice cream we got. Service / assembly line was organized and friendly so the line moved quickly.I'm so glad this ice cream joint is no where near my home for the sake of my thighs and belly!“
“My favorite ice cream place for now!! The ice cream is so delicious, creamy, and fresh!! Every flavor is so flavorful and yummy! I enjoyed the Boston cream ice cream, dark chocolate, and mint chip! I would 100% recommend this place! Customer service is great too!“

“Service was great. Had our ice cream served in freshly made waffle cones. They were still warm. Tried caramel collision and it was the best caramel ice cream I've ever had. Caramel ice cream with ribbons of caramel and chocolate covered caramel pieces. Absolute heaven.“
“A great DQ drive thru to get a cone dipped in sprinkles!!! Fast service, delicious ice cream and soooooo many sprinkles! This is an old school drive thru Dairy Queen and you could get whatever cone or Blizzard you want. I have not much to say except for how fantastic it is to go and get your desired ice cream of choice. Can't beat it.“
“Love this old school walk-up ice cream spot. Conveniently located near the bike path on main st. We like to walk there during the summer and enjoy a peanut buster parfait or one of their many special blizzards. Even when the line is long the staff is quick and friendly!and the ice cream is delicious!!“
“Open seasonally. Neighborhood burger and treat stand. Vintage signage and seating inside. Summer treats for all ages.We've always had good counter service from the people working there. Usually teens/college age staff that does a great job.Kid-friendliness: There is seating inside to be a bit more secure. Outside seating available but in parking lot.Snack foods (burgers/fries) but we always go for the frozen treats.“

“Great spot to get Bubble tea, plus super delicious!The service is above and beyond, my friend and I forgot to ask for substitute milk after it was made ?♀️and even though we were prepared to repay to have it remade, the person remade it without asking us to pay again. Thank you!“
“Sticks & Cones is an wonderful addition to Oak Park! A great location with plenty of street parking. The ice cream is phenomenal. The frozen yogurt too!! They have a bunch of other treats to snack on as well. A special surprise of an arcade with your favorite 80’s games await you in the back - which you can play for free. We can’t wait to come back ❤️“
“hands down BEST CRUMBL LOCATION IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA!!! We have a store literally 3 minutes from our house and we still drive to Oakbrook because this store has the best selections and the staff is always on point and very inviting!! Been coming here since they opened up and would not go elsewhere!“
“Great place to get ice cream or floats, and hang with friends & family. Service is quick and staff is friendly. Been here plenty of times when I have late night ice cream cravings. They are usually packed in the summer, so be patient. Usually I rotate between a root beer (Sprecher on tap too) float, PB Oreo concrete, or a strawberry banana sundae. They used to have orange soda floats but they no longer carry orange soda. Bring it back!“
“Decided to stop here after picking up my son.. now our go to place!! Ice cream is superb! Nachos w/peppers amazing!! Banana splits!! So much goodness in this location! I’ll definitely be trying elotes next !! The fresh fruit is also great!!!! While it is a little pricey it’s definitely good!“
“I've been tempted to stop at this place every time I drive by, and today was the day. I was immediately struck by how spotless this place is upon arrival. It is exceptionally clean and well-organized, and every compartment where the ice cream is located is spotless. I received prompt and excellent treatment from the woman who assisted me. I didn't feel hurried out of there, and she took her time to make my order. Depending on how busy they are, places like these will typically rush you out and leave a mess everywhere. However, she provided excellent service, and I will definitely use her again.“
“Amazing. Robert and Jessica are so nice and accommodated our wedding so amazingly. All the guests loved the fruits with chamoy, it was a big hit. And they stayed after to accommodate more guests. It was much appreciated and I would definitely recommend them for a “
“Best customer service I’ve probably ever had. Decided to go on a lunch date with my 3 very young children. My 2 year old must have eaten too fast and got sick all over herself, me, and the table. One of the workers ran over to help and told me to not worry about a thing. She even helped clean up my 2 year old. The manager came over and was so incredibly sweet and extremely helpful as well. Even asked what my favorite, my kids favorite ice cream was and packed up a bunch of pints on the house! I’m not sure that I’ve experienced customer care even close to this - so unbelievably grateful for the amazing staff here.“
“It was late and I decided to walk over and have a cheeseburger /w fries. Getting there was easy. On my way back home it got a little DARK. Need to remember Riverside has NO street lights. I had to walk more cautiously. . Tiptoe through the tulips. Ha“
“A great range of quality ice creams, fast and friendly service and good value. They even can do Pup Cups for your four-legged friends. Small indoor seating area but perfectly comfortable. The ‘small ice cream’ in a waffle cone was my choice and certainly was not disappointed. Easy street parking immediately outside. Looking forward to our next visit.“

“Stopped in prior to an appointment down the road at Hines VA. Absolutely amazing customer service, (I wish I asked for the employees name, my receipt says Liz) but she was the friendliest, warmest, most pleasant person! I ordered fresas con crema and agua fresca de sandia, both are so delicious! I will definitely be visiting this place again! Thank you again for a wonderful experience!!“
“Oreo ice cream was good, tortas de jamón were tasty, Takis con queso ? as expected. The only negative is the horachata was off on the flavoring. Not sure if it needed to be stirred or was just an older batch but wasn't impressed by that. Otherwise nice little place, the girl servicing us was very polite and pleasant. Would def stop by again.“
“The young guy that helped us was extremely nice and polite.. He waited for my kids to chose their ice cream flavors and did not rush them at all.. ice cream we got and paletas were delicious! Fresas con crema were good too! Will definitely come back!“
“My friend and I went here after the movies and decided to try their ice cream. The store itself is small but they have so much to offer from ice cream, candies, fudge, caramel apples, etc. It's location is perfectly located in downtown Elmhurst right next to the movie theatre. It was so hard to choose a flavor but I went with the All-American Two Berry Pie. Talk about YUM! The ice cream itself was so creamy and smooth. The texture was absolutely perfect. In the vanilla ice cream, there was a nice blend of strawberry, Blueberry, and sugared pie crust pieces. It was by far one of the best ice cream flavors I have ever had. The only downside is that they are quite pricy. It was $13 and some odd change for 2 single scoops in cake cones. I personally think that is pretty steep and the portion is just average. I cannot wait to come back to try more flavors as I am a ice cream lover!“
“I have been going to this place since it opened and i had always only gotten the nachos extra cheese and peppers because they reminded me of my childhood. But then i tried the ice cream it is the best. Look the owner she is the best and the most sweetest person in the world. And i am so happy for her that she expanded the shop. If you haven't been there go. Take the kids parents and just treat yourself.“
