Best ice cream in town but staff has no idea what the ice cream is… the exact statement from the young employees is “I don’t know I don’t make the ice cream” would love to try the new holiday flavors but without knowing what it is I am obviously hesitant.

I've been waiting to try this place out. It does not disappoint!

Let me mention this first off. There is no indoor seating here. You order at one window and pick up at another. There are some very nice tables outside, some with large umbrellas.

There are a LOT of flavors on the menu, along with some specialty items and a fascinating variety of edible and disposable containers. We were there realtively early in the day. While there was understandably only one server on duty and they were probably busier than anticipated for shortly after lunch on a weekday, we were able to place our order quickly and received our ice cream very shortly afterward.

The ice cream is premium in price but very rich and creamy. We shared a cup of Key Lime Pie which I found to be amazingly delicious. The cup had two very generous scoops for about $6 and it was plenty to satisfy as an after-lunch treat for both of us.

The service was great, parking very easy, and the ice cream over-the-top tasty. We'll be back.

Went on a Saturday during the day, and it was not busy. Ordered a turtle Sunday, and my wife got hot fudge brownie delight, and my daughter got a cone. It was relatively quick that the service was good and friendly. The portions size are ok. It was not too expensive .

Just had the most amazing ice cream of my life! During my quick trip to VA, my cousin insisted I try this spot before heading back home. I'm so glad I listened because oh my goodness, the coconut pineapple flavor was out of this world! Trust me, you've got to try it. And the mixed berries cheesecake was a close second. Absolutely perfect for the summer. Huge shoutout to Bruster’s Real Ice Cream for making my trip so sweet! ?❤️

I'm a high-maintenance chocolate milkshake guy—vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, and super thick! That's exactly what I ordered, and finding a good one is rare. But this Bruster's in Haymarket absolutely nailed it! It was hands down the best chocolate milkshake I've ever had. Huge thanks to Bruster's Haymarket! Crystal, the head manager (I think that's her name), is amazing. I highly recommend this place.

I recently had Bruster’s catering for my son’s graduation party and it as a huge hit! The owner was very professional during the process of booking the event, the service was wonderful, and the quality and taste of the ice cream was top notch. I would highly recommend them for any event!

I thought the teens working did an AMAZING job handling such a large crowd. That being said,my pineapple coconut milkshake tasted like flavorless ice cream and milk with bits of pineapple and coconut shavings. For a $6 small shake I’d expect it to at least have a flavor to it.

Yea don't go here you don't get served and then get cut off by everybody that's staring through the window after waiting 45 minutes just decided to leave because people in Virginia are trashy and have no respect to say excuse me or nothing

Love their ice cream! It's very creamy and delicious. Cherry vanilla is my go to flavor. Large cherries in every bite. It's a bit expensive but I feel like I'm paying for a quality product that is made daily on site. No inside seating but a couple outdoor tables with umbrellas to sit and enjoy a summer (or all year around) treat.
