About Big Top Ice Cream Shop

Big Top Ice Cream Shop offers a variety of ice cream flavors and also serves food options such as cheese curds, macaroni and cheese bites, burgers, and hotdogs. The ice cream is wonderful and creamy and excellent, particularly for vanilla lovers. The shop is definitely made for kids and is wheelchair accessible with parking and dining. Service is timely and friendly, with the added convenience of a drive-thru and outdoor seating at picnic tables. However, consistency in the size of cones made needs to be improved. Prices are relatively higher, with small cones costing around $4.35. Monkey Business ice cream is made with banana and peanut butter.

Yes, I do recommend Big Top but…last night’s visit wasn’t great. I asked for a small lemon cone, received it. My husband asked for a small creme de minthe, took quite awhile to get it and when he did it had half as much ice cream as mine did. An older lady (owner?) saw it and should have told the young boy who made it to do it again. We paid $8.69 for 2 small cones, and put $1.31 in the tip cup. They need to be more consistent in the size of cones they make.

it’s was very good the ice cream was great and garett and lucas were helpful!

Really good ice cream but really slow service
