“This place was sooo cute !!! The lady that was working the cashier / ice cream was super sweet and relatable and their popcorn brittle and gooey cake dough was top tier!! If anything must try the popcorn brittle and caramel apple. Two very different flavors. If you like a calm sweet go for the popcorn if you like a big surprise… try the apple! Must try place if you’re in town.“

“In Hamilton we love having Aglamesis. Friendly competent service, great ice cream and chocolates. We wish you much success ….“

“I love Graeter’s ice cream to begin with. This location is very large a lot of seating and there is a children’s play area. However, the parking is very limited. Also has a drive-through option. Everything is reasonably priced and very tasty. I highly recommend the boldly bear cat. You can buy ice cream and other tasty treats. I saw some cakes too.“

“A real ice cream treat. Unique fresh flavors and light taste. please support this local creamery.“

“Great place for ice cream.“

“Decided to stop for some ice cream with my son. They have a great menu, the girls behind the counter were very friendly and my milkshake was delicious. Parking is limited and they could use a couple more picnic tables. But it was very good and will be back!“

“Good ice cream at a fair price“

“Outdoor seating only.
Bring cash because I don’t think that they take credit cards.
Full DQ treat menu, including ice cream sandwiches and Dilly bars.
Follow the ordering process. One single line of customers. When you are first in line, advance to the first open window.

It is kind of like going to confession. There is a physical screen you talk through and a window separating you from your treat.

When it is time to pay, the window is opened and you get your treat. “When the coin in the coffer rings, the soul from purgatory springs”.

Please excuse the Catholic analogies - this Dairy Queen is directly across the street from Roger Bacon high school.

Like I said above, bring CASH because I do T think they take credit cards. I might be wrong.

There is ample parking in back of the place, and it is easy to get in and out of here.

High school kid staff were warm and friendly and made me a perfect cone.

Love this place. Drove six miles to get here.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oakley Crumbl is hands down one of my favorite stops! Their Dr. Pepper dirty soda (with cherry, vanilla, and heavy cream) is absolute perfection—it’s my go-to every time. And the cookies? Amazing doesn’t even begin to cover it. We’ve honestly never tried a flavor we didn’t love. Every week feels like a new treat and they never disappoint. So glad to have this spot close by!“

“Great customer service! My daughter had a pretty bad wipe out in the rain today before coming into the Taylor mill store today. She had a petty nasty scrapes on her knees and elbow. She was in tears and one of sweet workers came over with some cute animal bandaids and a few stickers for all the kids. She was so sweet to my daughter, she was instantly in a better mood after that and it took her mind off her scraped up knees and elbows. I hope she gets recognized for being so kind and her great customer service skills.The milk shakes were also delicious!“

“This was a cool place to try out. My sister loves this place and we were visiting and wanted to try it out too. I love my salted caramel and sugar cone. The place smelled so yummy and was comfy place. Service was also great too. Would recommend to anyone for a sweet tooth.“

“Nothing like my Dad's hometown favorite, a Grater's Chess Pie!!! My daughter has some extra creamy Reddi Whip and this was an excellent option for breakfast.
Thank you Grater's, brings back so many fond childhood memories with my Father in his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio!!!“

“I like ice cream very much. I aways went there last year, this year the ice cream is so soft the frist time there in a few months, it was so soft iit almost fell off the cone. I fave them another chance two months later, the ice cream so soft it was no fun trying to eat. I wont go back“

“Best dessert place there is! I have bought the 4oz minis for 2 family functions and they are always hit! We especially love the banana puddings! Not to mention the brownies are to die for!! Perfect tasty bites that remain me of the corners of the brownie pan! Can’t wait to try the shakes and cookies next!!“

“I love the mocha latte it’s so delicious and they were very nice 10/10 recommend“

“SPOILERS FOR GENERAL CUSTERS GOLF AND GULP BELOW:

there was like a REALLY funny monkey at one point and i think it made the whole golf thing really worth it. like this was the best mini golf experience ive ever had. the ice cream is good too. my girlfriend won though :( thank you Custer!“

“This is a dandy little half Dunkin Donuts half Baskin Robbins in a little strip mall close to Buttermilk Pike. This location specializes in ice cream it seems so that's what I went with (besides ice cream.) I went with the most unique flavour I could find; Bubblegum. It was ultra sweet as you might expect with definite bubblegum flavour there. They also had small little jellybean like candies inside the ice cream to add even more bubblegum taste. I got the two scoops in a sugar cone to finish a very sugary but delicious dessert. Thumbs up.“

“Items ordered Small blueberry soft serve in waffle cone cup Small vanilla ice cream in cup with rainbow sprinkles Medium blueberry ice cream on sugar cone Medium blueberry ice cream on bubble waffle cone with cheesecake bite topping I took my kids and nephew here, when we got there, there were only a few customers ahead of us so our wait wasn’t long. Within ten minutes the line grew to about forty people. The soft serve is excellent, a truly very creamy consistency, they didn’t skimp on the cream. In Cincinnati you can find varying degrees of soft serve from ice milk to rich and creamy. This soft serve is well rich and creamy, five stars. I immediately compared it to Kings Island soft serve which has been tasting less blue as the years pass. This blue soft serve took me back to the blue I remembered as a kid. The sugar cones were excellent, fresh and crunchy. My eldest got the bubble cone which I was very curious about, it went well with the ice cream. It was soft pillows of tender waffle, it tasted fresh. Salty and sweet a bit more salty than sweet but paired well with the ice cream. The cheesecake bites were delicious, very fresh, very delicious. Great customer service, friendly staff. I highly recommend this ice cream experience.“

“We’re not from here but came to this cute place! We got malts & edible cookie dough! Sketchy part of town but delish!“

“Mariemont is one of the cutest cities in Ohio and of course they have Cincinnati's iconic ice cream! My boyfriend and I love to ride our bikes here and grab some ice cream! My go to is the Cookie Monster Sundae! I don't see it on every Graeters menu, but I see it here, and it's my favorite! We love the atmosphere and bench seating outside!

Parking: Great easy parking across the street and around surrounding street parking. All around cross walks too.“

“Best ice cream company that exists!“

“There is a more limited selection of ice cream and higher prices than you would find at a normal Graeter's but the seating area is super cute and totally original to the building. All Rookwood tiles! It wasn't too busy on a Saturday afternoon despite the larger museum being crowded. The hours are different from the larger museum so plan your trip accordingly.“

“👌Thanks fpr another good time..!!!!“

“friendly people. Great food and ice cream.“

“I shop at Davis Cookie Collection every week and it just keeps getting better. The flavors are out of this world! I seriously haven’t had a single one I didn’t like. Even the flavors I thought I wouldn’t enjoy, she somehow made me fall in love with. That’s how good these cookies are.

On top of that, the customer service is exceptional. The owner is warm, welcoming, and truly passionate about what she does. You can feel the love and care in every cookie and every interaction.

This place is a gem. If you're a cookie lover or even if you're not, you need to try it. You’ll be hooked!“

“My mother took me to this location when I was a girl and the staff was great offering samples and shop was clean. Of course the ice cream was absolutely amazing! Wonderful memories❤️“
