17 Best Ice Cream Shops near Gardner

“Customer service and food quality is always top tier.

Time and time again, we consistently receive excellent customer service. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We're always impressed at their level of training, friendly demeanors, and willingness to help their customers.

The food is always fresh and high quality. We typically do a pick up order and the food is always bagged well and still hot.

Also, I can't stress enough how much I appreciate that Culver's offers a gluten free bun. And I really appreciate that the bun comes separately in it's own sealed bag. The brand of gluten free bun is also, easily, the best gf bun I've ever had. Very soft and flavorful. Which to anyone who is gluten free, you know how rare that is.

Thank you again to our local Culver's for always being such a joy to visit!“

“Always great selection and service.“

“Gavin waited on me and was awesome! Told me it was customer appreciation day and what I ordered was half price. He was cheerful (not sure a boy will like that), polite, helpful, funny, not afraid to interact with customers, just a nice hard working young man! Nice job Gavin!!“

“Like any other fast food place but pretty clean inside. Bathroom was clean and kept up well. What really made this place awesome and I didn't catch his name but he was one of the cooks. They initially got the food wrong for my little girl but when my wife told them they immediately fixed it and apologized. A few moments later he brought out some fresh fries and a coloring page for her. This was awesome of him to do and really appreciated. He didnt have to do that but went above and beyond and out of his way to do that.

It was Sunday afternoon 08/10/2025 at 1242pm. If you could find him or his name and give him some praise and kuddos. Everyone Deserves to be recognized. Thanks man, you rock and did a great job making her day. Appreciate ya !“

“I went to this sonic too, you know get some food and let me tell you the food wasnt that bad. i'd give it like a shiiii idk, 3/7. the prices stupid, aint nobody should be spendin that much? anywho, the wildest thing is that i had an employee tell me that they beat their hog in the bathroom because it smell bad? granted i did tip, im not a terrible human being. but i thought that was a little weird. and that they should prob get their kinks ironed out before the shift. btw i do love there piclke fry, mmmmmm. but i will be taking my business to the pizza hut across the street. thank you and goodnight.

Vegetarian options: i do love their veggies“

“I just stumbled onto Pop's Sweet Shop recently, and I am in love!From the moment you step through the door, Pop's is enchanting. It feels like stepping back in time to a classic sweet shop.I selected mint chocolate chip ice cream from a huge selection of flavors. Taking in the view and smells of all the treats while enjoying an ice cream cone gave me such a warm feeling of nostalgia.I had to bring home some peanut butter fudge to enjoy later. It was decadent, and I'm already planning my next trip to Pop's! I'm dying to try their cannoli!Y'all, grab your people and go visit Pop's Sweet Shop! It is an absolute treasure!!“

“I love Freddies just hoping tonight was just a one time experience….Slow slow slow through drive through…I was 3rd car in line. Almost 25mn wait and fries were cold!! Disappointing!! Usually a favorite!! Burger was just okay as well!! 🤨“

“It was fun to see the local kids trying to order food without cars lol. Glad to see they feel they have a safe place to grab a bite to eat. I grabbed a slushie and some soft pretzels. I wish they had some queso for the pretzels and while they weren't what I used to get in NYC they were decent. They weren't dried out and didn't get cold or hard before I got home and had a chance to eat them which was nice.“
