Fun, fast, and tasty! The local vibe here is a welcome must-stop while traveling on I-70. They have a variety of food options along with the best homemade bagels 🥯! Do not leave without getting their ice cream. Yummy!

Hands down the best place in town to get ice-cream!!! Their blue raspberry sherbet and red raspberry sherbet are family favorites at our house. The staff is always so friendly and inviting.

The Ideal Dairy offers a nice selection of sandwiches, ice cream, and sweet treats with fast and cheerful service. The pastrami panini, Heifer sandwich, Chicken Monterey panini, and pulled pork panini are particularly good choices, and gluten-free bread is available. Customers order at the counter and can enjoy their meal at a well-spaced table. The parking is angled on the North side, with plenty of spaces, and wheelchair accessibility is good with spacious interiors. The staff is super friendly, welcoming, polite, and helpful, and the place is clean and well-organized. It’s a one-of-a-kind spot with historic and family connections, great for kids with options like punch bags, cheese curds, and a wide variety of ice cream flavors, shakes, sundaes, or cones. While some feel the ice cream could be a little icy and prefer creamier versions, the fantastic service and variety of breads, meats, and homemade bagels make it a worthwhile dining experience. Late-night ice cream runs are a must for its killer price and delicious taste.
