6 dollars for ice cream nachos. Seeing all these wonderful post looks really good. Was told no toppings candies just ice cream and waffle chips. The service was not there. Tried asking why and was met with no add ons or substitutes. Wow a chocolate ice cream cone would have cost less. read more

Arctic Corner - Ice cream garbage - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

This is a solid choice for I've cream in town. Good ice cream, many different ways to dress it, and a good sized serving for very reasonable prices. I'm not able to get there often, but I always leave happy and stuffed when I do! Eat here! Super local! read more

This ice cream place is amazing. We go there few times recently just to get their signature strawberries & lemon cone. It was awesome as always. My sons recently ordered a dirt mountain & once again, everything is tasty & very reasonable price. My toddler was having his own little cup and he went to town with it too. I can't wait to go back. read more

Arctic Corner - Strawberry Lemon Twost - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

A regular old school delight! They had a line at 5pm, after most of old town closes. This is clearly the spot to be! We are normally traditional vanilla & chocolate people, but we watched almost everyone ahead of us order the strawberry/lemonade twist and couldn't pass it up! The strawberry/lemonade twist was surprisingly good and the Fruity Pebbles tasting blue raspberry hard shell was a nice touch, if a structural nightmare my snack partner's hands were a glorious rainbow mess within 5 minutes of having his cone. Thankfully the nearby river was a great place to wash up. Chocolate flurry was good. They don't skimp on the toppings, but they're also not mixed all the way to the bottom, so the lower 1/3 of my cup was just soft serve. Good flavor! Should have gotten a small, tho...my eyes were bigger than my stomach! read more

Owned by a great family and kids love it. Great selection and price. Great part of Old Town Lansing. read more

Amazing! Best quality ice cream! Worth it! Prices a tad higher but you can taste the difference.

My mom came to get a banana split and the woman working was racist towards her. She was very disrespectful and rude.

Got a hot dog, nachos and Reeces - the ice cream deserves five stars, so much more than you get at the chain places - nachos unfortunately were really stale, and hot dog was OK. Definitely be going back for the ice cream for sure. read more

Arctic Corner - Order - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

It seems that Arctic Corner gets little attention from Yelpers. Like most soft serve in our corner of the world, this corner is open seasonally. The hours change with the weather. I rarely get past the cones or the occasional strawberry sundae, so don't expect a lot of deep insight from this review. I wouldn't even be writing a review if it weren't for the fact that Arctic Corner seems so lonely out there all on its own. So show it a little love, Lansing Yelpers. Head on down to Old Town and buy an ice cream cone this summer. read more

Arctic Corner - a man walking past a store - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

Childhood memories all in one lick, every time I come to Michigan I have to stop here. Service is quick and lemon-strawberry soft serve cone is always on point. I wish we had something like this in texas!!! read more

Very very good place for family and friends and very very good ice cream come in the summer you wood love it thanks Arctic Corner

This joint is actually called Arctic Corner. The guy running the show in here seems to know everybody that comes by; I love that small-town feeling. He was teasing one guy about driving a Honda motorcycle ("You need an extension cord to start up your bike over there?") and turned to me to explain the joke. I don't know--hard to describe but it was a nice feeling. Welcoming and homey. Anyway, it's your traditional ice-cream stand like you see all over America. They have cheap treats here; for example, small cones are $1.50. And they have LEMON soft-serve. My mother would go nuts. You never see that anymore. She loves lemon ice cream and lemon-filled doughnuts but can't ever find them anywhere. I got a "Flurrie" (i.e. their Blizzard), and they kindly accommodated my request to have Spanish peanuts and M&Ms together. "Oh, like a peanut M&M one?" Exactly--that's what I used to call them. Only $3.00 for a small (12 oz) which really isn't that small (especially when they pile it above the rim of the cup). Every town needs a place like this. Treasure them! read more

So went back today. Took my girl. She loved the brownie sundae. Fyi, posted several pics, including the menu. I had my small vanilla cup with caramel. It was warm caramel too. In heaven..... For $2.25..... :-) A girl can't go wrong.... So pleased!!!!! read more

Arctic Corner - Theeee BEST! North Lansing's finest - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

My date and I ended up at this sweet little soft serve ice cream shop in the middle of Old Town around sunset. Ordered up a large banana split and turtle sundae. We sat at one of the three picnic tables available out front while we waited for our orders. Even though there were 2-3 patrons ahead of us, we had our cold treats within 3 minutes. The ice cream was delicious! My sundae was chocked full of pecans and caramel. The perfect sundae. Every time we drive by this place, there are people out front chowing down. We will definitely be back. read more

Love the soft serve! Great little treat stand in the heart of old town, I try to stop in every time I drive by LOL

Do not sleep on this place! Delicious soft serve, affordable prices, nice portion sizes. Legit. read more

Always delicious and generous portions. Anticipate a wait, but the servers are always polite and friendly.

My friends took me here few months ago and now I'm regularly coming and enjoying the ice cream. They have multiple different ice cream flavors with various toppings. The staff is very polite and you can request them small samples to taste. I would highly recommend it if you're looking for a tasty and yummy ice cream in the town. read more

This place has great soft serve ice cream, but they really need to work on how they serve customers. When it's not busy then there are no issues getting your order. When it's busy there is always an issue because they do not have a system that works. More often than not they will try to take all orders and fulfill those orders out of one window instead of using both windows. PLEASE start taking orders on one side and giving ice cream at the other. The current "system" always results in people getting annoyed and other often cut the line. It's really annoying and it takes away from their great ice cream. read more

I have been going to this ice cream shop for years. I will drive all the way from Charlotte to get ice cream instead of the local Dairy Queen because the quality of ice cream is superior to any chain store around. I took my family there again this past Friday and although Old Town was busy with events and the line was long, the service was speedy and the staff was friendly. The best part is that they will alter any standard product to make it exactly how you want it and who else has lemon ice cream?? read more

Great little ice cream shop in Old Town. This place is strictly a walk up window. Today was the first warm day and they were busy, but had plenty of staff to keep up with the crowd. There are several picnic tables outside for people to sit at. Cones were cheap at 1.50 for a small and 2.00 for a medium. We ordered 1 small and 1 medium and they were pretty much the same size, so save yourself 50 cents and go w/ the small. I had vanilla but am kicking myself for not going with the lemon. They have cones, blizzards, sundaes, shakes etc- everything you would expect at an ice cream shop. Make sure you bring cash- they do not take cards. read more

This place is amazing! Two of their signature items that you can't really find anywhere else is the Boston cooler and the strawberry lemon soft serve twist. I cannot say enough about this place, the people that work there are very nice they have a wide variety of treats and everything is good. There's plenty of picnic table seating. You could walk around Old Town and visit the fish ladder. You will not be disappointed you should definitely check this place out. They take credit cards as well. read more

Arctic Corner - Strawberry lemon twist from Arctic Corner! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

It's been years since I've had a soft serve ice cream cone. Ordered vanilla in a waffle cone which was way too big for one person. Seems to be a popular spot as the crowd indicated. I was happy we stopped even though my preference is for hand dipped ice cream. read more

This little treasure is in Lansing's "Old Town" area. Not a lot to say about it, except that I like it a lot. It's an independent soft-serve business, being run by friendly people. Good products at very reasonable prices. One unique feature that draws me in is the LEMON soft serve ice cream. It's delicious and as far as I know, nobody else in town offers it. Beats the heck out of your run-of-the-mill Dairy Queen and other joints. They also offer vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. The lemon/strawberry twist cone is outstanding. Give them a try. Highly recommended. read more

I personally know the Owner, He is the kindest and most generous person I know. His Ice cream shop is the best! He doesn't over charge for his product and he is honest. read more

Perfect. Strawberry sundae was great. Generous portion of both ice cream and strawberries. The picnic tables there are good. But getting your ice cream and walking down by the fish ladder makes for a great relaxing Sunday afternoon. read more

Great ice cream, great prices. Took the boys on Friday night and service was great. If you are going to old town you need to stop in and try it. read more

Please, please bring back the raspberry-pomegranate sorbet. It is the best! Just the thing for the summer. Very intense flavor. Had the strawberry kiwi thing today. Not as much flavor. Want the raspberry pomegranate back! read more

Pretty cheap and pretty good soft serve ice-cream desserts. We had the Peanut Blaster (a little salty, but ok) and a Flurry (very yummy). Worth stopping by after Pablo's or Meat. read more

Been here twice now. I love their Boston Cooler. There's not much seating, it's just a corner ice cream parlor. It's great, that's all you need, right? Nice location in Old Town across the street from the most interesting looking Thai restaurant I've ever seen. read more

I have been coming to this location since they opened (1953). I have never been disappointed! They not only have lemon soft serve but lemon/strawberry twists AND flavors of the week which can be ordered in twists also. I drive out of my way (and past several other ice cream establishments) at least once a week to get my ice cream fix! read more
