“I love cocomero. I came in here after a long and hard day at work. I was welcomed right away. The Cake batter yogurt is so good. If only my husband could please me like the yogurt does. The thick and cold yogurt is so good. I love the little fruit balls the have juice inside. Will be coming (coming back here because my husband can’t make me come) ?“

“First and foremost The Service Was Amazing Considering We Came In 30 mins To Closing 🤪 The 2 ladies were so sweet!!!! Gelato was delicious Highly recommended!!! Definitely found our new spot!!!!“

“Service was amazing and ice cream was excellent! We went without reading reviews with our 3 year old. He doesn’t scare easily, but the super loud music and scary animal farm theme was… a lot. Just not what I normally expect at an ice cream “shoppe” (shoppe with that spelling always has a quant vibe), with quotes on the walls about dead humans and such. Clearly a lot of love goes into the decor, and I’m not tucking anyone else’s yum- hence the five stars. But I did worry that the mannequins and paintings might give a young kid some nightmares. Fortunately he mostly looked at the ceiling, which is a super cool cloudscape. So, yeah. Amazing service, ice cream, and super friendly… just feels at odds with the decor.“

“so yummy! great atmosphere“

“Great Custard, hot dogs, & Service!“

“Great unique flavors of gelato and lots of interesting and fascinating carnival type acts. Where else can you eat gelato and watch people swallow swords?“

“First time there today, but I'll be back again soon. The coffee milkshake was so good, as was their cheezy bread! Can't wait to try more!“

“Thank you for amazing tasty ice cream!“

“The Concrete: Peach Cobbler was amazing!!!“

“Amazing place best customer service and everything is delicious 😋“

“If you are a fan of Ice cream, this is a great place to go. With dozens of ice cream flavor, package candies such as chocolate covered cherries, and half a dozen Sundays this is a great place to go.
The restaurant has a lovely antique vibe with little stereos at each table and a glass memorabilia case filled with the heritage of Margie’s Candies.
The service is great, you get your food within minutes of ordering. All the waiters are very nice and can help you pick your order. You’re seated quite fast and can easily have a to go order if you would like.
I would say Sundays are their specialty. The Sunday comes with hot fudge, wafers, and three scoops of your choice of ice cream. The portions can be shared or finished on your own. If you don’t want all that or for some reason that doesn’t sound appealing you could also get a shake. The shakes are very good, they aren’t too thick and aren’t watery. The flavor is very good and can easily substitute for a meal.
Margie’s is a great place to go whether you want a Sunday or if you looking for a fancy treat. Margie’s if a wonderful affordable way spend your afternoon.“

“I'm glad I found this little gem. The own is super welcoming and kind. The coffee was the best I've had I'm a long time and the food was amazing! And the prices were on point. It's a tight space and that's my only complaint, but I'm not even complaining. Go here, you'll be happy you did.

Vegetarian options: Small menu, in general, but a few vegan options.“

“Came in with a friend who had never had boba before. The owner(?) recommended her a flavor and offered to make her a different kind if she didn't like it. She had brown sugar, I had taro, and my wife had a caramel latte boba. All were delicious! We also got the mini pancake bites which were fantastic. The owner(?) was super nice and gave us free water as well. If it wasn't a 40 minute drive for us we would be here all the time!“

“I visited here yesterday for the first time and I absolutely loved it! First off, it has such a quaint vibe that is welcoming and calming. Then, the lady at the counter greeted me warmly and explained a bit about their options. I ended up going with a box of five truffles: traditional, cookies and cream, coconut, coffee, and strawberry. At first, I was a bit concerned about the price, but when I took that first bite, I realized it was worth it. Each of the truffles I tried were so delicious, genuinely the best chocolate I've had in so long. My favorite was the cookies and cream, as it had a perfect balance of the cookie crumbles with the chocolate inside. I also really enjoyed the coconut, which is saying a lot as I don't usually like coconut, but this truffle had the perfect amount of coconut where it was not overwhelming but complemented the chocolate. The worker also gave us a free sample of their fudge gelato which tasted great as well! She also mentioned that they add a little something special in the boxes if it's a gift for someone, so this would be a great gift for any chocolate lovers you know. Definitely worth the price and 5/5 stars all around, will be going back very soon!“

“So so so good! We got pizza and ice cream. Both were perfect! We are so excited for summer with many dinners here!“

“Amazing food. Staff was great and the owner likes Kola Champagne lol so he stocks it. Perfect way to celebrate my kids' graduations. Hopefully I can host a Cars and Coffee there. Best of luck, we will spread the word.“

“This place has so much to choose from! Soft serve, so many ice cream flavor, so many toppings, shaved ice, shakes, banana split, etc.“

“Came here for the ice cream and ended up eating the pizza. I can’t believe I’m saying this but Indian food belongs on pizza!

Tikka Pizza with chicken was absolutely mouthwatering. I was considering taking a second one for home. The ice cream was also good but definitely will be coming back here for a nice meal.“

“wonderful folks and a great selection of ice cream !“

“I went there 'cause people said they had the classic vibes of what Dairy Queen was at its begginning. Well... they exceeded my expectations. The service is a 20/10 and as soon as you get in the place, you can feel how you get transported to the past. Love the pics of its begginings on the wall. Gonna go back when I visit Chicago again.“

“Let’s face it. There are La Michoacana ice cream stores on every other block on North Clark. We stopped here for dessert and it’s easily our favorite! The helado (ice cream) is to die for! The coconut is outstanding as is Abuela’s Chocolate. There are regular flavors and some (Rum Raisin!) are so creative and delicious. And the paletas! The BEST Arroz, Fresa, Mango, Coconut...the list goes on. And the couple that run the place are just the sweetest people! Highly recommended.“

“This place is so adorable and everything is fresh. We got watermelon, kiwi, and lemon which were all Delicious especially the watermelon. We also got the churro cheesecake bites that were to die for! The woman was so sweet to give us a sample of some tomato soup, as well. Will definitely be a new regular!“
