27 Best Ice Cream Shops near Lake Orion

“Awesome restaurant great food and the owner is a great man.“

“Lake Orion's Dairy Queen is the best! I want to thank the staff who took care of my mother today! My dad stopped into get my mother her ice cream and forgot his wallet. My mother has dementia and my father cares for her. He had her count out the change in his car to hopefully have enough for the ice cream she loves. They refused his money and said to come back again and bring his wallet. Thank you! This warmed my heart and reminded me there is always good to be found even during these crazy times!“

“When is you car show starting“

“We love Custard Corner! 🍦🍨“

“Had the best time with Gray’s Suga Shack at Gretchko’s Color Run! A huge hit! Prompt on arrival, didn’t run out, very nice!!“

“We have come here a handful of times and it is such a treat to see happy staff, who keep the lines moving, and even didn’t seem to mind my overly excited, borderline hyperactive kids! The cookies, of course never disappoint! And I have discovered CURBSIDE! They never take too long. Maybe 5% slower on weekends. But what do you expect with a product like cookies?🍪“

“Cookie dough ice cream is amazing but the strawberry is my favorite. Looking forward to another visit!“

“After a rough day, we decided to lift our spirits with some ice cream and headed to Menchie’s.

The atmosphere was nice and inviting. There were a few people sitting and enjoying their treats, but it wasn’t busy at all.

I tried the pineapple coconut smoothie frozen yogurt, which is both gluten-free and vegan. Unfortunately, it didn’t hit the mark for me—it was really sweet and lacked strong pineapple or coconut flavors. I ended up giving it to the kids. I was hoping it would be closer to the pineapple flavor they had before.

Even though that flavor wasn’t my favorite, I would still recommend Menchie’s! This location was friendlier than the last one I visited, they have a good selection, and lots of toppings to choose from. I also appreciate that they charge by weight, so you can get as much or as little as you want.“

“Cold Stone is great, but this particular location is on a different level. The owner Todd has gone above and beyond for me on multiple occasions. The staff is friendly, and even the younger staff members have excellent customer service skills. There’s a young woman manager there, Olivia I believe, she does a fantastic job as well. Very helpful and polite.

There are closer locations to me, but I go out of my way to this one because the customer service and quality are just that much better. Not to mention they do a fantastic job on the custom cakes! 10/10 - absolutely the best.“

“Highly recommended 👌 fresh products, great location, there is plenty of parking lot. Comfy and cozy to get a healty menu. Quick service, friendly staff, and online orders. There is a table as of kids' corner with books a s tablets for coloring. This is one of my new favorite places.“

“We love this place! Great for a treat and next to Polly Ann Trail to walk it off too.“

“The taste is awesome 😍 love to eat“

“Our local Baskin Robbins in downtown Lake Orion did a spectacular job on my son's birthday cake this month! Their edible paper printer was broken so they gave me options of how to print myself, and also offered to decorate by hand as best as they could. They knew my son wanted a Harry Potter cake so they made the Gyfindor crest in chocolate and it was such a hit! The cake was ready for my dad to pick up 10 minutes late which wasn't a big deal because it was a lot more work to decorate by hand than they had planned. The decorative cookie sandwiches did melt by the time the cake got to my freezer so I will not order that design again but that's my own fault, not theirs! 9/10 would recommend and will be ordering my daughter's cake for next monthf rom them as well!“

“If you haven’t been to their location, please do!!! Not only do they have the best doughnuts, cider, ice cream, and goodies, but EXCEPTIONAL customer service! My family and I have enjoyed coming here for years and the staff always goes above and beyond! 🍎🍩“

“fast, friendly service. they keep it clean.“

“Kaylin and her Team are AMAZING! The customer service is off the charts, thank you!“

“A good dairy queen in downtown Rochester.

We came on a Friday night after dinner in town. This place is always super busy whenever I see it open so I have never stopped before. This night was crazy busy for them.

They were doing their best but the line still moved pretty slowly. They were out of a lot of things. Including almost all the seasonal stuff and chocolate ice cream completely.

We had a few Blizzards and they were pretty good.

I would love to come back and try it again when it's less busy and they have a better stock.

Worth it.“

“Smells awesome when you walk in. It’s super clean and the staff is fantastic—Every time I’m there! The owner has obviously taken the time to hire good kids from the area and they’re very respectful and kind! Always smiling and gracious! Thank you for being awesome & delicious Menchies!“

“Want to give the girls at your dairy queen a 10 out of 10. They were very sweet and kind and had big smiles on their faces as they took and prepared my order. Keep it up girls! Love seeing them beautiful smiles. Also love how clean your Dairy Queen is.“

“Delicious flavors, great service“

“Awesome restaurant great food and the owner is a great man.“

“something was forgotten in my order, I called and your manager corrected it quickly! He is great and went above and beyond!“

“I am a VIP customer and Marsha (the owner) is a friendly and great person. She strives to do her best and encourages her staff to do the same, in taking pride in hers and their work. The crepes are so delicious and the bubble teas are super good too. If you love frozen yogurt, custard, and ice-cream (even dairy free), it's all there. Flavors change constantly and are yummy. Bring the family in and play some games and enjoy some goodies. :) You won't be disappointed. I go everyday and it's great!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!“

“I ordered on their website and did curbside pick up. It was ready quick. I checked everything before driving away, they forgot a fry so I called and told them. The girl on the phone was very nice and had someone bring out a fry within a minute!“

“Obviously you pay a bit of a premium but the quality of food is outstanding! Service was phenomenal and the restaurant was spotless! Only knock I'd give is that you have go to the counter for a refill but an employee is right there to help!“

“I have been here many times, but today was the cherry on top of my love for this place!! Amazing service, and my cashier Lillian was so helpful and nice, even when it was so busy. Can't wait to go back, and hopefully she'll be working next time as well!“
