Great Escape Ice Cream Parlor

Shocked they are still open this late in the season, great service try the chocolate Oreo ….. YUM!

The place was great!!!! Try their homemade coffee icecream. You can feel the natural coffee flavor, right amount of sweetness. Absolutely delecious. The service was fantastic, they allowed us to taste multiple flavors before deciding. Coffee and peach cobbler was great!!

Five Star Fabulous! We had their homemade ice cream, and every flavor we tried was excellent. Samples are encouraged, super friendly service.

While in the Watkins area for a late last end of season vacation we decided to take the grandchildren for something sweet and ended up here. The place was very clean and had a friendly vibe, the young lady at the counter was smiling and very helpful. She explained that her uncle actually made most everything on site! I got a peanut butter Sunday & it was HEAVENLY!!
Will come again!

Delicious ice cream, friendly service and a very clean place. Definitely one of the best ice creams I have ever had! I would come all the way from NYC just for another cup. Deserves five stars ⭐️

Great ice cream after hiking! They accept both cash and credit cards

There are new owners of this establishment. The lady who waited one was very nice.

The building is handicap accessible as is the parking lot. Big parking lot on the right side of the building.

There are lots of hard flavors, soft flavors, shakes, Sundaes, etc.

There is indoor and outdoor seating here. You do go in the building to order.

New owners recently (local!), same great ice cream (Hershey's and their own). Highly recommend.

Delicious

amazing experience!!! i went with 4 friends, all vegan and 1 gluten free, and the flavors were very clearly labeled with allergens! staff were so nice and made sure we were taken care of. i would definitely come back to this place!!!

Super delicious homemade icecream, lots of options, and good prices.

Great customer service and good ice cream! Doesn’t get better than that!

The one and only server was on it. Good ice cream and pleasant fast service.

This is a great little local ice cream shop that makes their own stuff. We stayed in an airbnb right across the street and were able to walk over one evening to try some ice cream. It's worth a stop if you are in Watkins Glen. Keep an eye on hours though as it doesn't stay open super late.

Absolutely wonderful experience! The customer service was outstanding. The ladies behind the counter were incredibly friendly and generous, making us feel right at home. Their homemade ice cream is creamy, flavorful, and they even offer vegan options that are just as delicious. The shop itself is spotless and inviting. A true gem for anyone who loves quality ice cream and warm hospitality
