They either ran out of ice cream or they put it away, but they were still open. How do you run out of huge tubs of ice cream or why put away all the tubs before closing? We were there for red carpet day. Apparently they didn't know about that significant day for incoming freshman which happens often. Red carpet day attendants received discounted pricing for different eatery places including the chocolate moose. The staff had no idea about the discount nor did they know how to apply the 25% off discount. They need to be better prepared for these days which should be showing how much new students will love it at this school that offer dining places like this one.

Delicious

Enjoy both the strawberry and butter pecan flavors. The ice cream is excellent and service is good. I enjoy being able to get ice cream with my vegan friends as well.

First time coming back to this place after my last visit three years ago. Still disappointed! The flavor is far less creamy than those at Buster’s. The quantity (four scoops in the 1st pic ) is far less than ONE scoop (the 2nd pic) at South bend Chocolate Co. at Indy circle. Won’t come back.

My daughter really enjoyed her ice cream! It was delicious. The place is nice, spread out and very clean.

Terrible ice cream. Sorry guys but seriously not good. Tried 4 different flavors because no one else in my group liked theirs either. Would definitely recommend switching around some recipes. The bright side is that it was comparatively cheap.

Had two different vegan Ice cream options available when I went. Both were good. Also had some vegan baked goods available

So many options for flavors and toppings. Soft serve and traditional scoop. Just really good ice cream!

Went here in the late 80's as a student. It used to be a small drive-up ice cream place. They have since moved into a legitimate building which was very nice. Always got a hot fudge malt with extra malt and did again recently. Top notch!

Alumni of IU, we return to Campus every several years to see what's new, what's not, and what disappeared. Well, the Chocolate Moose that we stopped by EVERY time we visited Campus is now a parking lot. There is a NEW Chocolate Moose in a building 2 storefronts away from what is still the Chocolate Moose's parking lot -- but not really the Chocolate Moose's Parking Lot. Let me explain. There are NO parking spaces available in the parking lot for Chocolate Moose customers until after 4:00 PM! Not knowing about this parking conundrum, we visited the New Moose at 2:00 PM, and asked their employees about the parking. The clerks explained that customers wanting ice cream treats BEFORE 4:00 PM use the PAID/METERED parking across the very busy WALNUT STREET. Since we were not encouraged to order at this NEW MOOSE, and not wanting to be human dodge-balls while attempting to park at the paid meters and run across the street (we are in our mid-70's), we thanked them for this parking information and left. We were aware of a Chocolate Moose in the Indiana University Memorial Union and decided to wait until after dinner have our treat then. And now for the rest of the story..... At the IU CHOCOLATE MOOSE, we ordered a Chocolate Peanut Butter MALT! Surprise it couldn't be done! Soft serve vanilla "ice cream" topped by chocolate syrup- NO PEANUT BUTTER, no suggestions by the clerk (wife spotted and substituted crumbled Reeses Peanut Butter Candy Bar Pieces in the Sundae Topping Area) and NO MALT POWDER... a MALT we had been ordering at the Original Chocolate Moose for decades, was no longer available. Are these new owners of the Chocolate Moose (now with 3 locations) trying to fail? Limited parking, no signs posted to help potential customers know when and where to park, key elements for an ordered product not available in at least one location. Sad, really sad ;-(
