“Dubai strawberry cup was amazing!“

“Best ice cream and non dairy ice cream I have ever had“

“We love iFreeze! We took our daughter who has Celiac Disease. They have items marked as gluten free on the menu. She had the S’mores ice cream and loved it. They were very knowledgeable about Celiac and cleaned the machines before use. They keep all GF items separated as well. It’s so important to us to have safe places for our daughter to eat and have dessert. Would recommend iFreeze to anyone!“

“Took my daughter and her friends for a sweet treat here on her birthday and we LOVED everything about it. The dipped ice cream bars were ahhhmazing. We tried 3 different flavors and all were a hit. I personally had the sweet and salty and I still can’t stop thinking about it a day later. Staff were so kind, patient, and friendly. And the place is picture perfect to document your experience. Can’t wait to visit again with my husband and sons who didn’t join us.“

“Best Ice Cream spot in Detroit. Always so friendly and taste great“

“Took a whole group of students there today. One girl alone, but cheerful and helpful and served everyone with a smile. Clean, old-style ice cream parlor. Would definitely recommend!“

“Awesome as usual ………………..“

“I was blessed by Karen, the owner. I didn't look at the hours. I was just told that I could get superman ice cream there on a cone. When I arrived they were closed. I tapped on the window and explained that I was on my way back to NC and would pay double for my ice cream. Even though they hadn't opened yet, she serviced me and wouldn't allow me to pay her. I tried showing my ID she still would not take my payment. I say God bless you, Karen for making this big kid happy! 🥰🥰“

“Unique coffee shop inside called Meillie Coffee“

“The lady serving our ice cream was super helpful and accommodating. She provided us with pup cups and gave me suggestions on which flavors to try. Our gelato flight was delicious! I highly recommend this place!“

“My sister and I love this place. It was recommended by a near by business. The chicken quesadillas are amazing. The foot long coney is good. And the waffle fries with chili and cheese is delicious. I will return soon to try their egg rolls and ice cream.“

“Ice cream is delicious. They’re small. Is the size of some other ice cream shops larges if you’ve seen some of my other reviews, the only thing I will say to critique this place is I wish they had more than vanilla and chocolate and that they brought in their seasonal flavors all year around I understand that space can be an issue, but I bet they would make a lot more money if they had orange selling all year around.“

“definitely would recommend to go there“

“I have been going here for years. My family nd I love this place so much we go almost everyday can’t get enough. Staff is awesome very nice. Owners are so sweet amazing ppl very friendly. Durning the summer u will see the owners outside walking around talking to their customers, making u feel like family. I had almost one of everything on the menu nd I haven’t found anything I haven’t liked. It’s a must go on any type of weather best ice cream in town hands down. Good job Dairy Freezzz u rock!“

“I love getting ice cream here and have been a customer for years! The workers are super fast at getting our orders through the window even with long lines. There are so many menu items to try here, but a classic vanilla or cookies n cream are always tasty.“

“Great place- big portions- kids liked it :)“

“Fantastic establishment with amazing ice cream!“

“I've gone like 2 or 3 hours out of my way to go here. It's one of my favorite places of all time. I told the owner this is one of my favorite places, I think she thought I meant ice cream. That building has been a staple of this community since the '60s.“

“10/10 I would recommend to everyone! Thanks Hassan ❤️❤️“

“Amazing ice cream!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The Italian Beef Dip is fantastic, brings back memories of my Italian grandmother and her sisters. Great ice cream/soft serve selection and I am a big fan of the seasonal poutine. So many delicious options! It is on my ‘Must Try’ list for new real estate clients buying/ moving to the area. 5⭐️’s“

“saw a couple people walking by with ice cream and saw a line around the block. We lined up out of curiosity and heard many people saying it’s the best ice cream in Detroit! it definitely is!

ice cream is very creamy, not too sweet that it gets sickening after a couple bites. the vanilla and chocolate flavors blend well together, the twist was a good combination! the ice cream tastes very natural and milky, unlike others that have a heavy artificial flavoring taste.“

“I brought my bike club-Family And Friends Bike Squad B/C there yesterday (Monday). We all enjoyed the different flavors and options. It was so good and the staff was wonderful. We'll be back.“

“Such a great hole in the wall ice cream shop, they have the best ice cream and at such good prices!!“

“I was visiting from out of town and saw this place. I went there for ice cream and I must say that I was not disappointed. It was so good that we went back the next day. Everyone there was friendly and they have a variety of convenience items to choose from not to mention the store is very clean. Please try their ice cream!!“

“I ordered a chocolate malt with custard paid 7.50 plus tip and got essentially chocolate milk. It wasn't even cold or thick. I took it back, and I asked to just get a twist instead, because it was so bad and they said, no I had to go buy another one. i definitely do not recommend this place.“

“I want to give a huge shout out to Here's the Scoop Ice Cream for showing up at a moments notice to Edison Elementary in Westland today for their field day when the Kona Ice truck we booked and paid for did not arrive. Here’s the Scoop came within 2 hours of my inital panicked phone call with enough ice cream for all 450+ kids. If you are in need of an ice cream truck in the future, please consider them. They really pulled through today for all our kids and we couldn’t be more grateful. 💙🍦“

“I love this place, especially nice that it's open late. The hotdogs are really really good quality, everything is delicious. The guy running the counter when we normally go is always so friendly and accommodating. Definitely some of the better fast food in the area and you can tell a lot of love goes into the food being made.“

“ice cream 🍦 😋 is a must. adding items to your ice cream or shakes!!!“

“We just tried Detroit Water Ice Factory tonight for the first time. The guy working was very helpful explaining everything and recommended a few flavors. We got the strawberry lemonade with ice cream and it was delicious!! We also tried the caramel latte hot chocolate and it was by far one of the best we’ve ever had! We can’t wait to come back!! I can’t wait to try the popcorn we bought too!“

“The best Dairy Queen! Great service and the best ice cream ever!❤️“

“Great small quite place... about 10-12 flavors to choose from with an endless amount of toppings... 2nd time going and great experiences both times.

Parking: Right now parking is free if you can find a spot by the store due to construction.“

“Great product with genius marketing. This location needs help. Staff was nice, but we stop often. Mistakes more than once so order needed to be redone, and I was also handed a box with icing all over the bottom. Overall decent place. I'm sure employees will improve with time and management.“

“Love Dairy-O! The best summer treats in Clawson“

“Great ice cream and great service!!!“

“Monarch Market Cafe has become a staple of Huntington Woods, MI. As a resident of the neighborhood, promoter of small businesses and an avid coffee lover, this is my go to spot for a delicious latte or a quick bite to eat. The atmosphere is cozy, the staff are super friendly and their diverse menu has something delicious for everyone. I wholeheartedly recommend stopping in to experience this amazing, local cafe.“

“Dairy Queen is always a great spot for a sweet treat, and their Cheesecake Blizzard is amazing! The creamy blend of their signature soft serve with chunks of rich cheesecake and graham cracker swirls is just heavenly. It's the perfect mix of textures and flavors, making it a must try for any dessert lover.
On top of the delicious treat, the customer service was top-notch. Ali Almawla, one of the employees, was super friendly and made sure my order was perfect. He was attentive, quick, and really made the experience enjoyable. It's always nice to see such great service paired with tasty treats!“

“Been several times and I continue to crave it. Fresh and delicious sandwiches, friendly staff, well worth the drive.“

“Had an awesome experience at Pie Sci in Oakland Park. its hard to grab food on the go when its medically necessary to be gluten and dairy free. They do just that at Pie Sci! Picked up a pie to eat before the Tigers playoff game, game lost but Pizza was a home run!“

“I just had the Cookies n’ Cream shake from Haagen Dazs, and wow—it was insanely good! Super creamy, rich, and full of those cookie chunks that make every sip feel like a treat. Honestly, it hit the spot perfectly.

But what really made the experience even better was Maribel! She was so sweet and kind, made me feel really welcome, and took the time to make sure everything was just right. It’s not every day you get such genuine, friendly service. Big thanks to her for making my visit such a good one! Bought a Coffee flavored ice cream for Gramma, really enjoyed it!

Definitely coming back for another shake soon!“

“The building is dated, but the ice cream and donuts are DELICIOUS!!! I went to get the blueberry cheesecake and the strawberry cheesecake. When I got there, I tried the banana pudding ice cream and got that, too. All 3 in one container! Yes, so stop by to get a scoop or two, maybe 3 and donut.“

“The best cookies and cinnamon roll in Metro Detroit. The cinnamon rolls are huge, made fresh and served warm on the weekends. They are always a big hit at my Open Houses! Highly recommend both, and I look forward to trying the ice cream cookie sandwich. it looks amazing, you can customize your sandwich by choosing your choice of cookies and ice cream flavors.“

“The service is great and fast“

“Love the decor, the food, everything is nicer there.“

“Very kind waitstaff. Will explain all the choices and what they can make or how it will taste. Amazing Rose Milk tea!“

“Absolutely adorable! Love this Michigan gem definitely one of my FAVORITES“

“Open to public & walk-ins are welcome! Wholesale distributor for trucks & events. As well as individual sales for personal pleasure!!

In the competitive world of wholesale distribution, Star Ice Cream stands out as a paragon of excellence, reliability, and quality.

Additionally, Star Ice Cream offers competitive pricing, providing excellent value without compromising on quality. This balance of affordability and premium product quality makes them the best choice!“

“I usually get a medium chocolate ice cream on a cone and that is plenty. Their team works fast and gets through lines so you're not waiting long. If there is no line, your order may be done before you've paid. I'm never satisfied with the sweet treats here.“
