Today was PJ Day! The beginning of Spring ?. You could donate PJ'S or wear yours and get a free waffle cone with your favorite ice cream.

Paying over $5 for a scoop of gloppy ice cream is unaccptable. Don't do a disservice by unloading it on unsuspecting customers. If the freezers aren't working correctly then let the customer know beforehand and offer some choices of ice cream flavors that are frozen hard.

Amazing ice cream! Always fresh and delicious. I really love the seasonal flavors as well. The strawberry shortcake during the summer is my favorite the apple dumpling is incredible in the fall! Can't wait to try more flavors.

My husband and I went to Bruster’s today, in the hopes of being able to have a gender reveal cake created quickly for us. Although the cake we wanted could have taken a day or two, Erinn saw how excited we were and was able to create a custom cake for us same day!! Erinn had our baby’s gender in a concealed envelope and did an amazing job at ensuring we never knew the gender until we cut the cake. The cake tasted amazing and was beautiful inside and out. We couldn’t be more pleased with choosing Bruster’s for our gender reveal!!!

This place is incredible. I always have enjoyed brusters, but this location is the best. The kids that work here are so kind and work so well together. They were rocking a line 20 some people deep last night and had smiles on their faces the whole time. I told the girl that helped us that they were doing a great job and she looked like she was gonna cry because I said that. But they do deserve to hear it. Keep being awesome! The ice cream here is always good no matter what I get. And Brody always gets a little cup so you know he's happy. Can't wait to go back! Happy Eating!

So this place can be great, but it's hit or miss. Lately, there seems to be missing ingredients (for example, I ordered pints of Graham Central Station a couple times and there was absolutely none of the graham cracker swirl, which is my favorite part). Also, the portions are sometimes ridiculously small and they're not consistent. I can get 4 scoops of ice cream one day, and it almost fills up a pint container. The next time I ask for 4 scoops, I get a small little container that looks like a child's size and can't be more than 2 scoops. The ice cream is good when it's made with the advertised ingredients, and when you get the expected amount. It's tough to spend $15 on ice cream for 2 people to walk away feeling ripped off, though. (For what it's worth, I've noticed that a woman who I believe is the owner seems to be the one who always gives us the REALLY small portions. She's nice, but I hate when she waits on us because I know I'll walk away annoyed.)

Its ok but not better than scoops on the blvd. Tbh not even close. The taste is just eh better than store bought ice cream but not on scoops or psu ice cream level. Maybe its because my quart of oreo didn't have alot of oreo in it, mostly vanilla

It was great. My wife had a chocolate shake and I had the coffee ice cream on a sugar cone

On 11/3 we purchased 1/2 gallon of Oreo, and it was excellent. On 11/20 we ordered another 1/2 gallon but were disappointed in the quality contents of it, seems there were not the same amount of Oreo as the previous one. All this had was Vanilla ice cream and chocolate swirls. I've ordered the Oreo the Ingomar location and haven't been disappointed yet!!!

Great ice cream in all types of servings. Their Blast is a version and Much better than Dairy Queens Blizzard. More stuff in it.
