    My friend from Minnesota took us here after a long day of exploring. This was her "spot" growing up & having had ice cream in California together, I trust her opinion. We came right before closing & the joint was packed and busy, including several patrons who arrived after us. The line inside wasn't long because by the time you're done paying/tipping your order is already ready. There were probably so many flavor & topping options, but after sampling the cookie butter daily special it was a NEED. I'm also a diehard rainbow sprinkles girl, so I went with the easy choice. If I hadn't been exhausted I would have spent extra time figuring out the other toppings like fruit.

    Banana Cream Pie - Small (Kids Size)
    Crystal D.

    I have wanted to go to Adele's forever after hearing amazing things. I had heard about the flavor calendar and highly recommend looking at this and the menu so that you know what you want prior to arriving. When I arrived at Adele's the drive thru was full and they were taking orders car by car instead of at the window to make service quicker. There was some minimal seating but the drive thru seemed the way to go. The banana cream pie was the flavor of the day and was amazing! It had bananas, whipped cream, and vanilla wafers in a banana pudding custard. Already planning my next visit here!

    Adele's is a MUST visit if ever near Excelsior. Their custard is truly unprecedented. They have a new flavor of the day each day (sometimes even 2) and typically differently flavored frozen yogurt. You can also get concrete mixers or sundaes that are to die for. Their waffle cones are freshly made and impeccable. Additionally, their custard pies, specifically the chocolate raspberry truffle one is a huge hit at any party or gathering. They tend to always be pretty busy but get orders out fast and also have a drive through which is great! It's located in just a quaint house turned custard shop right off of highway 7 and very conveniently located. I truly cannot speak highly enough about how amazing Adele's is. Try out just a simple vanilla dish with the cookie dough on top (literally incredible), the flavor of the day, or truffle Sunday - you can't go w

    Great Custard!! This was so good! I am in Minnesota visiting family and was so excited to get custard at Culvers. We decided to try Adeles and it was so incredibly good!! Loved it and would definitely go back!! It's very busy and can get a bit hectic un the parking lot. Not a lot if room inside or outside.

    What an absolute treat! And it has a drive through? What else could you possibly want?! I got the turtle sundae and now I have dreams of it. Despite it being swirled with caramel and fudge, topped with candied pecans and whip with the cherry on top of course, the vanilla custard itself does not taste overly sweet. In fact, it's just perfect! Wish I lived in the area to try more flavors. The service is quick, the ladies were so nice. Quaint little town must-have!

    Toffee almond with cookie dough
    Daisy W.

    I love ice cream and this place did not disappoint I got toffee almond ice cream with cookie dough and let me tell you they do not skimp on the cookie dough mine was piled high with it and it was delicious. I probably would get a different flavor though because toffee almond was a bit plain, however it did have real toffee pieces in it which was nice. The small size is also a pretty large amount so would totally recommend!

    My friends and I tried quite the variety here and everyone was satisfied! The cookie dough is excellent, and you definitely get what you pay for. It tastes like "real" cookie dough that you would buy from the store, not just the tiny morsels of "cookie dough" that you typically find elsewhere. You can actually taste the chocolate chips, and they add a nice texture as well. Definitely a cool spot to check out if you're nearby. All of the people working were kind and efficient; they even have a drive thru window! There is pretty limited indoor seating but a decent amount outside. It's the perfect Summer spot

    First time here! Huge deck in the front part of the building. Smaller space on the inside. I was confused at first with what to order but the worker was really helpful and guided me through ordering my ice cream. It was delicious and they give you loads of toppings!

    Kiddie grasshopper flavor of the day
    Robyn L.

    YUM! We love this place. They have a flavor of the day calendar that we usually plan our ice cream trips around. They are definitely the star of the show at Adele's. You can drive through or walk up. But they are FAST! A small is a big portion in my opinion so when I want a true small I order the kiddie size :)

    Sarah B.

    A great stop in excelsior to treat yourself. I'm not a huge soft serve person so giving it 4 stars but for the portion, the friendly staff, and many many options to choose from this is a hit! Perfect for any age - old and young!

    Flavor of the day
    Katie O.

    Adele's is a cute summertime treat spot! Adele's is an old house turned custard spot, with lots of great patio seating and a great crowd. Great ambiance! Parking lot is small and many signs limit parking to 1 hour. Drive through and the line inside is very fast - there's tons of employees who are scooping and taking orders. Adele's has two flavors of the day made every morning in addition to vanilla and chocolate. There are also shakes, mixers, and more! All of the custard is made in house and is delicious.

    Turtle (replaced nuts with cookie dough)
    Mariam R.

    Frozen Custard just may be my new favorite ice cream! It's THAT good! Definitely underrated - who knew frozen custard would be this tasty?! They have so many options, it was hard to narrow down what to get - however, I ended up settling on the Turtle. I replaced the nuts with their home made cookie dough and oh, it was so worth it. I've heard people rave about their cookie dough and the compliments are valid - it was perfect in every way. And they serve a lot of it ! Not only that, but the Vanilla custard on its own was just divine. Super creamy, softer than ice cream, but still rich and delicious. My husband got the apple caramel one and it legit tasted like apple pie. Apple pie in the summer. Yes, I'm sold! And I hope you are too. Best part of this custard place is that it's a drive thru - so all you do is drive past the window, order, and drive to the nearby lake to enjoy it. It was a nice little date watching the waves of the lake go by, the geese eye the custard, and the ducks with their little ducklings. Their menu was so large, I'm excited to try different flavor options for next time.

    Gawd the custard is so good. It's worth the drive from Minneapolis. Even the vanilla is amazing.

So many different flavors; literally something for everyone. Please save some space after your dinner for this -- don't be like me... eating until I'm full and then STILL trying to get a double scoop. I couldn't do it... oh but I did do it. And it was WORTH IT! All that sugar got to my head and I didn't even think to take a pic of my ice cream... Get yourself a waffle cone though, so good! The folks here are patient and sweet. You're gonna want to try a few things before committing. They're all good!! There may be a line depending on when you go but it goes by pretty quickly. If you start to get impatient, just remember that when you get to the front, you don't want anyone rushing you while you try all those delicious favors.

They have over a dozen flavors of ice cream. Some are listed on the display while others are on signs on the wall above the ice cream. I got the "Halley's Comet" single scoop in a waffle cone. It was vanilla & chocolate ice cream w/ caramel ribbons & Carmel truffles. It was good & reasonably priced. They have 3 tables inside so it's smaller, there's some benches outside too. I would for sure stop here again if I'm in the area! Such a nice treat.

There were 4 of us in the group and…read morewhen we arrived the restaurant wasn't busy and we were able to secure a table on the patio. The inside was pretty deserted apart from a few patrons sitting at the bar but overall the ambiance is nice and fresh and bright. Because I wasn't too hungry try I settle on the G.O.A.T salad with shrimp, my friend got the jerk chicken flatbread, her mom got the chicken egg rolls and we got the kid's cheese pizza for my friend's son. We didn't have to wait too long for our food and when it was brought to the table it looked good. Their choice of plates is an interesting one because the plates have specks that make you think they're dirty. The egg rolls weren't good at all and the inside wasn't fully cooked so you could take the flour in the wrap. The jerk chicken flatbread had no jerk sauce/seasoning on it. The salad was good but again the plate makes the dish appear unclean. We ended up sending the egg rolls back and they took them off our bill which was nice.

While I understand food costs and needing a pared down menu, gone were the uniquely Jamaican dishes such as the jerk bowls and the jackfruit, etc (still on the website by the way). So what I tried was a Jamaican Banh Mi. Basically, grilled chicken with some sliced vegetables in an imitation of a Vietnamese banh mi. I really enjoyed the sauce they drizzled on and their mango Cole slaw was one of the first times I actually liked a restaurant Cole slaw. Sadly, a sandwich with a thin slice of chicken breast and some Cole slaw is not worth the $19 price tag. While the service was very good, Montego Blu doesn't stand out anymore given the lack of their Caribbean options.
