I don't like this place because off the low amount of dairy free options they have for people with allergies. The service is good and the seating isn't always the greatest since it is outside, which means the place is small. Would recommend if you don't have any dairy allergies.

This place is a great summer staple in the area. It brought back great childhood nostalgia going here. The snowballs and ice cream are delicious and a perfect treat for all ages! I always get the Baltimore classic, egg custard snowball with marshmallow :)

You really know that you are in "small town, America" when you stop by Opies in the summer. From April to October this is where you will always run into someone that you know if you live in Catonsville.The menu is the perfect size, the high school and college kids who work inside are always friendly and efficient and the ice cream is delicious. Grab your favorite and take a seat on one of the picnic tables in the back. A perfect end to a summer evening or after a game.

Essential ice cream and snowball place in Catonsville. Though I dearly miss the pretzel cone.

We love Opie’s! The service is good and improving! The selection is huge! I recommend the snow creme. They tend to be a little lite on the flavor so you may want to ask for extra! Reasonably priced and they offer Opie dollars for gift giving and stocking stuffers!!! .

Great ice cream, though smaller portions, but I love the shady places to sit down wgere you don't have to scarf down your ice cream for fear it'll melt!

I love this place. I've been going here every spring & summer it opened in 1984. They sell snowballs,ice cream, milk shakes & more. They have picnic tabels & they have a porch swing on the side of the stand. Great place to take the family after dinner than go for a walk on the Trolley trail.

Good flavor on the ice cream. Loads of options with the toppings. This place has been a staple in the Catonsville neighborhood for over 30 years. And best part - the prices are relatively cheap for the quality and portions that you get!

I love Opies. The quality of ice cream, the service, the space, and parking all make it wonderful. It's an easy location to get to and a perfect setting to enjoy a sweet treat. Snowballs, ice cream, milkshakes, cookies--it's all delicious and affordable.
Pups and Myself enjoyed our time here! Good ice cream and snowballs. Nice place to sit outside

We very much enjoyed this little find. On a recommendation from a friend we made the trek to try their soft serve and we were not disappointed. Prices are awesome and the food was delicious. Highly recommend this little gem.

I've been going to this snowball stand since I was a kid and I love it. The snowballs are my favorite. They employ young people through the summer season and they are always polite and efficient. They offer sundaes, cookies, and other delicious summer treats. They have seating and a peaceful family fun setting to enjoy you treats.

One of the few ice creme shops in this area. The soft serve was delicious with many toppings available.
