Small batch. Super premium. Homemade ice cream. That is what their website says. Yes, yes, and yes. Hands down some of the best ice cream I've ever had. I'm visiting from Arizona and I felt like having some ice cream, I don't eat ice cream all the time so when I do I want it to be a treat. I looked up places for ice cream nearby. This place has really great reviews on google. I can see why. The ice cream is super creamy with really yummy flavor combinations. There is a signature flavor menu with many the classic flavors you'd expect. And then there is the seasonal menu. I chose one flavor from each. I got a "split" scoop which is 2 smaller scoops vs a double is 2 full size scoops. I opted for the June special- hip hip brulee (Vanilla bean ice cream with a mixed berry swirl & Nilla wafer crunch! Topped with brûléed sugar dust) and it was even tastier than it sounds. My second flavor is the monster cookie (Peanut butter ice cream with oatmeal cookie dough, M&M's, & milk chocolate chips) Easy 5 stars to give!

Hmmm...no banana splits!! What. Well is real good ice cream anyway. Oddball flavors, kinda, and not much of standard. But those are interesting. Not for us however. There are better ice cream store options.

This place is very popular and I can see why! The line moves quickly and they have some great funky flavors. Their homemade waffle cones were one of my favorite parts!!! It's small, but mighty. They have a few tables inside and some benches outside.

While visiting, I stopped by here on the advice of a native. They said it was probably the best ice cream shop in Lincoln, and I'd agree! I had the Almond Brittle & Salted Ganache (mainly because of the name), and it lived up to the hype. The staff was kind, helpful, and made sure my first 402 Creamery experience was grand! If you have the chance, stop by and give them a try!

Very good ice cream. I went hear twice. The first time everyone was friendly. It was early afternoon and there were only 3 customers. I had funnel of love, just one scoop. It was very good. I then took my in-laws there the next day, in the evening. It was crowded. The line was out the door by the time we left. This time I had two scoops, one of the funnel of love, and one of the caramel carnival. Both were delicious. The place was very clean. I do think it's a little pricey which is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. I think I spent $17 for three adults. If you have a lot of kids or a big group expect to spend a lot of money. Important to know is that they have a limited number of flavors, so you might not see the typical ice cream flavors. That being said the caramel carnival which I belobe had the cornflakes in it was very good.

Yum!

Awesome spot for ice cream. Creative flavors and high quality. Love this place and really want to try more of their flavors. Great for kids, date night, pints to go, any and all! Friendly service and just a great spot for all. I really want to try their Cinnamon Roll and Chili flavor.....

Strawberry shake and Cinnamon Snickerdoodle

This happened to be our second visit and second time to Lincoln and the 402 creamery, but this time just outside of the downtown area. Ice cream is just as good, if not better then the other location as they have different varieties coming in and out. We tried the cinnamon snickerdoodle, monster cookie, and a strawberry shake which were all excellent. Hand made ice cream takes on a different texture than the mass produced version and has almost a chewy, stringy consistency along with large pieces of cookies or other ingredients which I really like. The monster cookie was a madman creation with cookie dough, M&M's, and one or two other delicious items included that I can't name off the top of my head. Highly recommend stopping in if your in town.

402 creamery was absolutely delightful. They have a variety of unique seasonal & signature flavors. I got "on a roll" in a waffle cone. It was delicious and super sweet. If you like caramel & cinnamon, you'd probably enjoy "on a roll." I'd definitely come back here!

Got this place as a suggestion from my brother-in law. Simple inside and out, but a flavor for days! Enjoyed the snickerdoodle and the monster cookie! Both were delicious and creamy! Great local spot to try anywhere in Lincoln, Nebraska!

Kids cup of bees knees (seasonal) ice cream

This is our favorite ice cream spot in town! I love seeing the new flavor combinations they come up with each month, and the scoops are very generous in size. My favorite flavor is the bees knees.

There's not many flavors, but they rotate them often, so that's fine. The yogurt is always a bit…read moretoo runny. I'm not sure why that is. They may want to freeze them a bit more before serving. It's already pooling at the bottom before I leave the store. Otherwise, fun to try all the different flavors but also wish I had more time to have seconds on certain flavors. Not sure when I'll see those flavors again. But also, not a place I'll come back to often. It's a bit messy at times and the prices are definitely higher than other locations with greater selections and service. As for service, they are usually very attentive. They will only talk to you as you are checking out. It's whatever since it's all self serve, but kind of weird especially when they just stare at you. I also noticed that they have their employees rate and review the place. To each their own, but it's dishonest. At least try to look like a real customer. You took your photos from behind the counter...

By the time I made my selection someone finally walked out from the back area, I asked a question about a topping and the response was incomprehensible. The staff was on her phone the entire time and when I gave her $6 cash for my $5.74 total she said "I'm just waiting for you to give me 74 cents" I reminded her I gave her $6 to which she replied "bro, sorry I'm not even paying attention " I paid and left unlikely to ever return!!!!

Shared parking lots…read more Basically there is a row of frozen yogurt dispensing systems by the wall. Then you will walk to the toppings section. There is a great variety of toppings- fruits, sweets , chocolate chips, MnMs, gummy bears, gummy worms, nuts etc. Ladies were on hand to tell you how this works. They also provide sample cups. - but the sample cups were pretty small it was hard to estimate how the fro yo will hit the cup. One other thing to note- it would be better if they could label it a bit more. There are three flavours per station but to me it wasnt as clearly labelled( more crucial for diabetics) I did successfully guess the correct flavour for myself. There are nsa options and keto options. And various diffeent flavours. I got me nsa cheesecake and pineapple dole whip topped with blueberries, strawberries and mixed nuts The cup is weighed and then you will pay for them at the counter prior to getting paper napkins, and spoons before selecting your seat. There are a variety of seating available. Booths, tables, and high tops by the windows Overall, decent experience This appears to be a favourite with teens. Can get quite noisy in there

We made our choices and moved to the topping islands. They looked nice with alot of variety from candies to chocolate to nuts. We paid and enjoyed our bowls. It was quite good. Hit the spot on the hot day. 2 not so good notes - 1. Lack of low or no sugar yogurt. 2. The sample cup is ridiculously small. The yogurt comes out larger than the tiny cup.
