21 Best Ice Cream Shops in Fort Wayne

“Julie (owner) welcomed me and my two littles to her shop on a rather disastrous day, on our part. She was so patient and kind and accepted us just as we were -- extremely frazzled mom, barefoot + overtired toddler, and soon to be publicly breastfed two month old. Never once did I feel unwelcomed, disdained, or the least bit out of place despite the chaos I brought to her little slice of heaven. Julie is peppy, hard working, and outgoing. She not only served us swiftly and kindly (hello mandatory samples and extra time with decisions, offering suggestions as well as finding busy work while I thought), but also invested in our journey, asking thoughtfully worded questions and sharing her passions as we conversed. We easily spent an hour in her shop, dripping ice cream and breastmilk and exhaustion; tracking sticky fingers over her game pieces, and adjusting the atmosphere from pleasant to slightly stinky newborn blowout... and yet Julie met us where we were at with kindness and welcoming presence. Is that all? Goodness, no. I am gf/df and one of my littles is df and I was shocked to discover Moo Over not only existed in one but BOTH of my allergen capacities... and others, such as egg. I've been traveling to CC regularly for years and completely oblivious to this gem I could have been visiting every time with zero dietary concerns! Letting my hair down around food is a luxury that can become a common experience now that I know! I discovered her because she put a very GENEROUS coupon out in the Parkview Whitley new parents welcome packages. Originally I was sad it was a coupon I couldn't use, because dairy and ice cream... but I was so excited to discover I was wrong! And Julie, It worked -- I am a forever customer! Is THAT all? Goodness, no! This frazzled momma finally drove off, but left her debit card laying on the counter. Julie held onto it and when I called the next day, offered to mail it to me. She went through the hassle and expense of her time and resources to ensure I didn't have to cancel my bank card or worry about making an extra trip out (an hour away is so much longer when there are littles to load up everywhere you go!). I am beyond impressed with every aspect of what Julie does with Moo Over. She truly exudes excellence and the mindset of community she needs to excel. Such a genuinely amazing business woman. Thank you Julie for doing what you do and doing it so well!“

“Tankers: they load you 24hrs a day takes roughly 3 hrs to load. Make sure you show up at your appointment time that is when your load of chocolate should be ready. If you are early they have a few spaces for parking is all. I was early and they let me park there to wait they have bathrooms across from the scale.“

“Cubeicle has done a great job taking care of us and keeping us stocked on ice. We have conversations with our guests often about "How do you get the ice to be this clear?". My bar goes through about 400-500 2in.x2in. Cubes. Consistent social media posts of our drinks simply bc of the ice. Free advertising is never a bad thing.
