11 Best Ice Cream Shops near Leetonia

“My family and I were at Leetonia Dairy Queen tonight and it was very busy. I am an empathetic person and I could sense a lot of tension and stress amongst the employees. After we ordered and received our food, we saw a female employee storm out of the kitchen and say “I’m done!” The only two employees left working were very young and customers continued to walk through the doors. The teenage employees were stunned and upset. A couple of minutes later, the male teenage employee sheepishly stood at the cash register and said, “Our manager just walked out and we’re both underage so we have to close. We’re really sorry.” A bunch of us felt very sorry for the kids and went up and gave them extra tips. The teenage boy said, “Is it okay if I cry in front of all of you people?” We all reassured him and the female teenage employee that this was not their fault and that these things happen. They both cried and hugged each other. The boy put a handwritten closed sign on the door and began the process of locking up. One of the customers still inside with us finishing eating went over and hugged him. My 7 and 5 year old kids were watching this whole situation unfold and I was very happy with how the teenagers handled themselves in such a stressful situation and with how all of the people (even ones who were turned away after just having walked in) treated one another with love, kindness, and compassion. Not a single person responded rudely or unkindly. Everyone showed empathy. Kudos to those two teenagers. Experiences like this will serve to make you even stronger and ready to face adversity.“

“Like anything else there are lots of choices but without a doubt there is only one Lisbon Dairy Queen. The other Dairy Queen’s and Ice Cream locations in the area are just a shell of this place… I for one hope it never changes!!! Gary and his crew do a wonderful job!!! When I was younger I walked there almost daily and that was over 40 years ago, I remember the owners parents working there and it seems like it was yesterday… Lots of great memories of the Lisbon DQ… Keep up the great work!!!!!“

“This is hands down the best ice cream we have EVER had! We will definitely be back....a lot!“

“Pink Champagne, Coconut Cream Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Cinnamon Graham Cracker in a 4 scoop sampler dish for same price as a cone. Delicious way to try multiple flavors and to share.

Parking: Paved area next to shop, extra parking near tree line.

Kid-friendliness: Child size cone or dish.“

“We got subs there today. They were delicious. The ice cream was delicious. We love to place a friend and I we went two hours to see an Eagles nest on Lipply rd. We stopped going and we stopped coming back. And we shall be back when we come back over.“

“the ladies doing the counter were very helpful when I came in and placed an order for chocolates. I had never been to heggys and had brought my son and his stroller in. I appreciate yall being accommodating and not saying anything about how much space the stroller took. I will definitely be back to try some breakfast“

“Best sausage biscuits & gravy and chili.“

“Went pretty close to closing, wanted a milkshake but they had already shut down the machines, but happily they were still willing to serve us. Got 5 pints of ice cream instead. The service and kindness they showed us right and closing was very nice. The ice cream was ok, nothing fantastic though. Prices weren't to bad for fresh served ice cream.“

“The food is amazing but the girls are the best! if you want to have a relaxed, fun filled with laughter, and treated just like family breakfast/brunch or ice cream this is definitely the place to go!“

“This is the worst DQ in our area. blizzards are always down from the top a few inches. We use to go there all the time and stopped going because of this reason. stopped on April 29 and could not go inside for some reason. tried the blizzard again and same result. Do yourself a favor and go to Canfield, Austintown or Columbiana. Extra nice places.“

“Visited for their Valentine’s Day dinner event this evening. Super cute idea! Wonderful setting and service. Colleen an awesome job serving everyone and the rest of the staff was great keeping up with being extra busy 💗“
