Ice cream for breakfast! Yum! All the flavors looked fantastic. I picked Meyers lemon Ice cream with strawberry sauce and Froot Loops.
Great ice creams, wide range of flavours and service is good. Crowded most of the time with nice vibes, especially during the summer and my to go for great ice creams. I usually get the sampler that comes with 9 flavours.
The ice cream is always solid and I'm happy with the hours. They do have a vegan ice cream!
Love their milkshakes. Good price to value ratio.

Best ice cream I've ever had. Hands down. I tried their Frozen Hot Chocolate flavor, and it was amazing! Very highly recommended!

The Lockport location is very nice during Christmas time. The cake batter icecream and salted caramel are delicious. If they ever have orange chocolate, I’d love to try!

So so glad they added a vegan flavor!! The salted caramel Oreo is delightful easily some of the best vegan ice cream I’ve ever had
Yesterday, I tried the black sesame ice cream at Lake Effect Ice Cream, and unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. Both my husband and I ended up with food poisoning afterward. We had only ordered one scoop but couldn't even finish it due to the unpleasant taste. I strongly recommend they consider removing this flavor from their menu.

Second time visiting, area was as lively as the first time a couple years back. Nice outside setting. The line moving up to the counter was pretty quick, as well as receiving the order.
Many interesting ice cream flavours, decided to try the Paula's donuts flavour. Was pretty good, and they accommodated my request of putting it in a container rather than a cone.
One thing to be mindful of is the parking, not many spaces directly at the venue, and some people might not be too good at parking.

I was sold when The Temper Trap was playing while I was waiting in line. Staff was extremely friendly and handled the line very efficiently. The Earl Grey flavored London Fog ice cream was incredible
