“Delicious ice cream! Wonderful staff!“

“First of all, we are not even sweets eaters. But, after our recent trip to Italy for the first time, we have been longing for authentic gelato. Stopped in tonight to get some to go, honestly was trying to keep my hopes reasonable. Bought mint choc chip, salted caramel and orange creamsicle. Tried two and oh my!!! The creamy texture and flavors took us right back! Love this place and will return!“

“I’m happy with the service I receive here. I’m in the forgiving mood given the fact my blizzard was not flipped before it was handed to me. It felt like I was a victim of a crime. Oreo cheesecake blizzards make life better. Get one next time you go! Thanks DQ team!“

“First time visitors! Banana milkshake did not disappoint. We will definitely be going back because I want to try their Italian Water Ice! Everything looked great!!“

“Highly, highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Delicious ice cream, amazing staff - very inclusive and kind!“

“This is the best ice cream I've had in years. The butter pecan was amazing! Has the nostalgic real ice cream taste from when I was kid.“

“Ice cream was good. I think there needs to be a better menu, and then one small thing would be if a customer comes in, try and be a little more welcoming. (THEY WERE NOT RUDE) just didn't feel like I was being given much of a service. I mentioned I had never been there before and I didn't know what was good and they kinda just stared at me. Again, not rude, I think just young and doesn't know customer service very well. Meant only to be as a room for improvement, not to hurt this business. I will try again for sure!!!“

“Unique ice cream flavors and treats as well as great service!! I don’t get to go to Louisville Cream often but when I do, it’s 100% worth it!“

I always get the same thing and bit almost always tastes the same (really good thing) and they are always very cheap compared to other joba places. I do reccomend, very nice staff too. When they gave me the wrong boba, they redid it with no questions asked, for free. When I dropped a boba and it busted everywhere, they gave me a brand new one, no questions, completely free. I love this place and will often go!!“

“I just want to shout out Olivia at the Saint Matthews location. I have never received better customer service in my entire life and I have worked in food service and customer service For 22 years. Last night at about 6 o’clock I ordered a six pack of the regular size Dubai chocolate cookies from the Saint Matthews location. I live in Fairdale and every other location you know relatively not all of them, but most of them were sold out and I was like well I’ll just go to Saint Matthews so I ordered them. I need the store didn’t close till 10 so I decided not to leave the house until eight thirtyish and I don’t drive. I took an Uber. So we get all the way there after paying you know nearly $60 for an Uber and almost 40 for cookies. We’re coming up to $100 just for these cookies at this point we get to Saint Matthews, my youngest daughter and I, and when we get there, the Baker tells us that they do not have any of the regular size Dubai chocolate cookies they only have four minis and I was like OK well can I get a refund and she said we can’t do it without my manager here and I was like some options are cookies I don’t want or no money back and I’ve already spent $100 like I was pretty bummed I wasn’t rude or anything and but I was just really bummed I felt super letdown so that I called my other children and had them pick out what they wanted and they weren’t too excited but you know she could hear their voice is like I guess I’ll take this now. I guess I’ll take that. Well. I alternate between all three of my kids Crumbl points so that they each can accumulate them and get little rewards and things so yesterday was my middle child’s Crumbl point day and my youngest daughter and I leave Crumbl with the cookies. We weren’t really excited about because we didn’t get the one so we wanted and go to target across the street and before we finish at target my middle child calls to tell me that the manager Olivia called and said that she understood where we were really disappointed by not getting the Dubai chocolate cookies and that she wanted to make it up to us especially because we pre-ordered them and came all the way from across town in an Uber to make it up to us and she was going to drop some off to us personally and I was like well that’s great thank you… And I was thinking she meant 10:30 in the morning because you know nobody wants to go across town after work you know after they’ve worked there their little buns off all day so we get home and 🦋💙👩‍👧My Daughter’s like oh well Miss Olivia’s gonna be here the manager and I was like when is she coming? She said oh she’s on her way. Olivia went above and beyond in every Single possible way. Not only did she come with cookies she got all of them to buy chocolate cookies and she made us a gorgeous little cute little box and she also brought a little goodie bag with two chocolate milks, and two white milks and then another little goodie bag she brought two Crumbl Tumblr cups two Crumbl pop socket sands two Crumbl sunglasses Crumbl tattoos and Crumbl stickers I mean she literally just went above and beyond oh and Crumbl keychains and not only that but she drove them all the way from Saint Matthews To Fairdale at 11 something at night she didn’t get to my house till 1130 so I know she didn’t get home until after midnight after working all day long and I I’ve just never had somebody go above and beyond that way in all of my entire life and she really just deserves a shout out. Not only should she get a shout out like she gave the kind of service that I will gladly pay an Uber to take me all the way across town to Saint Matthews. If it means going to Olivia‘s Crumbl.“

“the store itself was a good store, my wife and i got the biscotti tres leches cake but we weren’t really happy with it this go around. it’s our favorite & one we always make sure to get but this time it didn’t have any moisture inside the cake, it was VERY dry. The only thing that had any moisture was the icing…. not the best trip treat wise but the store staff was really kind. I’ll be back just from staff experience.“

“Prepare to be amazed by the sheer magic that is The Comfy Cow ice cream haven! My heart is still fluttering from the extraordinary experience I had with the incredibly fabulous Carrie, the maestro behind my sons ice cream cake creation. Picture this: I was in a cake crisis, left high and dry by a completely different establishment that failed to deliver the pre-ordered masterpiece I had been eagerly anticipating for over a week. Desperation set in as I reached out to several places, only to be met with helpless shrugs and apologies. But then, as if guided by a force of fate itself, I was connected with the enchanting Chantel from The Comfy Cow. With their usual grace and charm, they turned the impossible into reality. Brace yourselves, because this ice cream haven usually crafts their delightful creations with a 3-day lead time. Yet, armed with a dash of determination and a sprinkle of fairy dust, Carrie Ramirez from The Comfy Cow's Middletown location emerged as the hero to create a breathtaking ice cream cake for my son in under 24 hours. Yes, you read that right - UNDER 24 hours! Let's talk dedication, folks. Carrie not only stayed late into the night but also emerged from her dreams to ensure that my son's ice cream cake would be an unforgettable masterpiece. My gratitude knows no bounds, and my joy is so immense it could power a thousand birthday parties. And now, dear readers, I must hang my head in shame as I admit that this review comes a tad fashionably late. You see, I was so wrapped up in the delight of this ice cream cake that the days simply slipped through my fingers like sand. The cake was triumphantly unveiled on July 8th, and here we are on the glorious August 9th, penning these words with heartfelt apologies for my tardiness. In conclusion, if you're looking to be transported to a world where ice cream cakes are created by fairy godmothers and dreams come true, look no further than The Comfy Cow.

“We had a great experience at Cold Stone on Hurstbourne! I’m not sure if he was the owner or the manager, but he definitely made friends with all three of our boys by giving them a toy car! We will definitely be back for a great and fun experience!“

“Small batch, extra creamy ice cream. Great flavors 🍨“

“My wife and I stopped by The Widow’s Walk Ice Creamery and it was exactly what you want out of a place like this. Nothing fancy, just good old fashioned ice cream in cups or cones, with a solid variety of flavors, plus the basics like sundaes and malts.

Honestly though, the setting is what makes it stand out. It’s right off the riverwalk, and you get great views of Louisville across the river. There’s also a really cool Victorian home next door that adds to the whole atmosphere.

Simple spot, done well. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re walking the riverfront and want a sweet treat with some amazing views.“

“Dairy Kastle is one of those local places that always seems to have a crowd. It’s a seasonal ice cream shop that closes during the winter, and it definitely feels like a Louisville favorite. When we arrived, it was so busy that there was barely anywhere to sit. Personally, I thought it was just regular ice cream, but there’s clearly something people really love about this place. The atmosphere was fun and lively. Worth stopping by at least once to experience it for yourself.“

“This place has just about everything! Sandwiches, coffees, teas, boba, Ramen bowls, Pho, burgers, subs, even specialty corn dogs, and amazing bakery items! Super nice people and everything was great tasting and good serving amounts, all for a decent price in my opinion. Also was playing nice music and had nice decor. Can't wait to go back!“

“Took my son to get a lemonade with strawberry boba & it was fantastic 🤗“

“Delicious cookies, great service.“

“I have been coming here for several years. Great staff and friendly family type atmosphere. The food is always well prepared and hot. I come here multiple times a week for breakfast. Without a doubt, the best Dairy Queen in Louisville by a pretty wide margin. Thanks to Bill and all of his amazing employees.“

“Chocolate mocha almond fudge donut ice cream sandwich“

“you want home cooking this is the place! food is always hot and delicious 😋“
