37 Best Ice Cream Shops in Fort Wayne

“What a great place! Employees were so nice even when we walked in 5 minutes before closing, they were in no hurry and so helpful! Hidden treasure!“

“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!“

“It's hard to pick the best thing about this place. Their flavors are unmatched, and absolutely delicious, and very well balanced! Not to mention their customer service??? 15/10 would always recommend.“

“good“

“I don't usually give 5 stars unless a business truly earns it. The ice cream is delicious, but what really made this a 5-star experience was the exceptional customer service. The two young ladies working when my niece, nephew, and I visited were an absolute chef's kiss. They were friendly, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Great product, even better employees. Kudos to the team!“

“Friendly staff and good flavors“

“Huge selection of your summer favorites!“

“If you like, super sweet stuff, it’s for you, but I couldn’t even taste the cookie flavors because it’s so sucking sweet.“

“Great prices and service. Sometimes a short wait because everything is prepared when you order but I highly recommend!“

“My first experience visiting the Keystone at the Crossing location in Indianapolis was made special by staff member, William. He was amazing from start to finish. I appreciate William’s kindness, attention to my needs as a customer and warm personality. I want to extend a round of applause for William’s phenomenal customer service.“

“Still the best in the fort!“

“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.“

“Still the best in the fort!“

“Las mejores nieves, muy buen servicio 🍦“

Adri Employee was very nice and greeted me with a beautiful smile and asked me if i was picking up, i said yes and i forgot to ask her if she put my order 2 separate boxes and as soon as she got done packing my order i went and asked if she would kindly put two different cookies in a different box she smiled and told me i will do that right now for you. she did not get angry or upset she just accepted it and made sure i was taken care of. thank you so much adri!“

“delicious unique mixtures of rolled ice cream. We have been there 2x now and have left happy each time“

“steak asada tacos fast friendly service“

“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.

“Great food and the staff is always very friendly.“

“Food fantastic and you don’t have to wear a mask 😷“

“Fried rice actually looks fried and pleasing to the eye instead of orange and boiled looking rice. The egg rolls are some of the best I've had in years. Hopefully if they decide to expand the appetizer or entrée menu it is as well done as these.“

“Drive thru I have a broken leg,cherry misty & my hubby had a milkshake chicken meals we love them we eat@DQ, 1-2-times a wk. Thanks

Parking: Parkinglot on the Frontline & drive thru side I can't get around right now alot of people like DQ, SO I'M THINKING it's partly that reason.“

“This Dairy Queen location is exceptionally clean, well-managed, and always fully stocked with all the classic favorites. The staff is incredibly friendly and efficient, handling long drive-thru lines with impressive speed so your ice cream never arrives melted. The Blizzards are mixed perfectly all the way to the bottom of the cup, the soft-serve is consistently thick and creamy, and their hot food—especially the crispy chicken strip baskets with Texas toast and warm gravy—is always served fresh and piping hot. With plenty of parking, a welcoming family-friendly atmosphere, and pristine indoor and outdoor seating areas, it is easily the best DQ in the area.

“Great fish cod. Friendly staff and helpful.“

“Everything was so good and awesome!“

“Exelente ambiente familiar“

“DQ review for Lower Huntington Rd location
I desire ice cream everyday! Multiple times a day!! My favorite blizzard treat is the Brownie Batter Blizzard!! This location is the ONLY location in all of Fort Wayne, Bluffton and Markle, that actually makes it proper!!! I always get a large Brownie Batter Blizzard at least 4 days a week. Some days I’ve even stopped in twice for a large BBBlizzard. The large get 4 scoops or Brownie Batter with 4 scoops of the brownie bits. All the other locations I’ve stopped at do, 1-2 scoops of batter and maybe 2 scoops of brownie bits. I’ve had 2 locations complain they don’t do the 4 scoops of batter because it’s thick and makes the blizzard hard to make. Well I’m sorry, this is part of your job description and that’s what makes this blizzard what it is!! Make it right, or don’t make it at all!! This location though, they do it right all the time!!

The staff here really are great people. The friendliest face that I’ve got used to seeing on my near daily stop is Elijah. I have had several interactions with Elijah and he’s a wonderful person/employee with what I’ve seen as showing great character, a great personality, a positive attitude, great work ethic and always serves and greets with a smile. Elijah wanting to be better at his job asked me out of curiosity, what I believe is the best way to make the blizzard knowing it is a pain to make but It really is best making half/half. Take large cup fill half way with ice cream, 2 scoops of batter, 2 scoops of brownie bits and mix then add the rest of the ice cream, 2 more scoops of batter and bits and mix. Once completed, you are left with perfection that keeps me coming back day after day until the batter runs out. Sadly, I Then have to wait around for next BBBlizzard season.

This DQ location really needs to partake in employee of the month initiatives and honor Elijah with the admirable praise he deserves followed by recognition of the other great employees that make this location the best and only pick for all my DQ Cravings!!“

“We had a fun experience as we asked Worker 1 if they could write "Happy Birthday Shitheads" and draw a turd for our 3 adult childrens' special birthdays. Worker 1 to Worker 2 "I think we can do that." "Oh, and can any of you draw a turd?" Worker 2 "I got you!" Worker 1 to Manager through headset: "Can I write Happy B" (Manager from kitchen before Worker 1 finishes question, "YES".) Worker 1 finishes question not hearing Manager approval, "My manager says we can!" Here's the result:“

“I ordered the 6 piece chicken strip dinner basket and small Royal cheesecake blizzard for dinner. The chicken strips were all nicely sized ! The blizzard perfect ! All delish!“
