Customer Reviews
Haven't been here for years and I remember it being so good! Walked on a friday night and there was no line. They let me try different flavors of ice cream and I ended up getting a cookie dough Sunday. I liked the ice cream but it was a little underwhelming. Not what I remember. The hot fudge quickly melted the ice cream so I kid of had to eat it fast.. The inside was fairly empty and cold but they also had tables with chess boards but no chess pieces which would have been nice to play. The table I sat at had not been whipped down which was kind of gross but I cleaned it before I sat down. Over all not really worth the trip..
Went there to get my free scoop of ice cream for my birthday. The lady in drive thru was very nice. She also let me know that I have more rewards that I didn’t know of.
The bathrooms could be a lot clearer unfortunately it smelled of urine and there was pee in the toilets.. also the seats were old and ratty. If a restaurant can’t keep the bathrooms clean, why would they keep the kitchens clean? I brought my kiddo in to use the bathroom and wanted to get some ice cream after but because of that we left instead. I’ve been to other locations and had good experiences but unfortunately this one was not. If it was just one staff member working I could see the bathroom being dirty but there were three staff members.
I really liked this place because the ice cream is not overly sweet and tastes awesome, also the place and the staff is friendly . They offered some free samples of pumpkin cake which was soo yummy
Oberweis has always been a local favorite of ours for years. There is always plenty of seating, and counters are maintained cleanly without any sticky ice cream residue. I always think their flavor specials (usually involve some sort of fruit in the name) have the best taste compared to the traditional flavors, which run on the heavily sweet side. We thought portion sizes were accurate. Only qualm is that it’s kind of a “blind order” shop where the ice cream is not behind a transparent counter for you to browse. Of course you can ask to try certain flavors, but you definitely can’t just browse by “what they look like” so you do have to rely on reading the menu. In my opinion the menu is a bit small to read in person and you do have to squint quite a bit. I’d recommend just pulling up the m
