Lake Effect Ice Cream Reviews
Best ice cream in Buffalo
Lake Effect has the best ice cream in Lockport!
Pints of Big Wayne’s Cake Batter & Frozen Hot Chocolate are often found in my freezer. The seasonal offerings are lots of fun! Lake Effect is located right on the canal. I highly recommend a visit anytime of the year.
Hands down the best peanut butter ice cream I had have ever had!

The menu clearly labels lactose-free and gluten-free options, and the staff is friendly, helpful, and courteous.

The store is very clean, and the generous scoops make it a fun experience, especially if one orders a double in a cone.
