Quite possibly the nicest staff I've ever met. I'm not even a huge icecream fan but I'll come back because the young people working were so kind. Prices were great and food quality was 10/10. Store was clean and well maintained! read more

Batavia Creamery is my family's favorite ice cream shop around. Amazing high quality ice cream, lots of great flavors, the cakes and pies are also delicious. The best part though is their staff and owners are genuinely good people who go above and beyond for their customers. Love this place. read more

Truly a local delight! They have so many flavors including vegan and diet/allergy sensitive options. The staff are kind and the line speaks for itself... they are always busy! read more

Only good things about the Batavia Creamery. There are SO many flavors to choose from and the employees are always in a good mood and working hard. The strawberry cheesecake is one of my favorite flavors but you really can't go wrong. It's definitely a must do for any occasion - walking along the river walk, post-event celebration, birthdays, etc. read more

Great ice-cream, cozy environment and amazing and welcoming staff. Would recommend to those who enjoy ice cream and honest local businesses.

Seriously, good ice cream! The biggest detriment when going to Batavia Creamery is having to make a choice! There are so many delicious flavors, it's hard to narrow it down!! They even offer frozen yogurt and vegan ice cream. I've been here numerous times over the past 20 years. However, this time, I noticed the addition of smoothies and frozen cappuccino. The kids working the counter were pleasant and well trained. The inside of the store was clean. They have ice cream cakes and pies available in to go coolers. What more could you ask for?? Another enjoyable visit on a hot day. Life is short. Eat dessert first. read more

we were traveleling far with cooler and needed dry ice... loved the owner's explanation for careful use of our dry ice purchase.

I don't know what kind of witchcraft went into making this, but holy fucking shit, it's like they took every decadent chocolate thing imaginable and crammed it into one tub. It's so rich and dense, it feels like a damn brick in my stomach, but I couldn't stop eating it. Each spoonful had me going, "What the actual f***?" because it was just so goddamn good. The fudge was gooey, the chunks were massive, and the ice cream itself was smoother than a politician's lie. If you're looking for a diet-friendly dessert, turn back now. This is the kind of treat that laughs in the face of moderation and dares you to keep going until you hate yourself. Long story short, if you're a chocolate lover, this will ruin you for all other desserts. Get it, devour it, and prepare for your taste buds to never be the same again. read more

Batavia Creamery - Moose Tracks Melted - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Batavia, Illinois

My friend and I checked this place out after seeing it in a local magazine. In the time of Covid everything is a little crazy, but I was surprised that they are only serving in cups, no cones. We both enjoyed our flavors (Scout's Honor [mint chocolate] for her, Marion Blackberry for me); mine was intensely flavorful! Sometimes when you have a fruit ice cream you can feel like you're missing out on, like, chocolate, but not in this case! We both got lemonade as well, but don't bother: though it had seeds in it, it tasted weaker than Country Time. I would come back to check out their rotating flavors of ice cream the next time I am in Batavia! read more

Batavia Creamery - a cup of ice cream and a drink - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Batavia, Illinois

I've been coming here for nearly 40 years. It was a Baskin Robbins when I was a kid, but I believe it's the same owners and very similar to 1980's/90's Baskin Robbins. There are a bunch of flavors to choose from and even some that are vegan. We really liked that there were warnings on the labels about various allergies. I also love the variety of cones and bowls to choose from. They do continue to make ice cream cakes as well. When I visited this week the staff was super, super nice! You can sit inside or out on the sizable patio. I prefer to take a little walk on the river walk while I eat my cone. read more

I can't imagine how busy this place gets on a hot summer night! Tonight (around 70°) the line was about 6-8 people out the door. Although the line was long it kept moving so the wait wasn't too bad. The ice cream was very smooth and tasty. I had apple crisp ice cream which was quite tasty & was just like the real thing. My partner had a banana split and he said it was one of the best he's had. This is a cute place right by the river. It's along a main road so if you sat outside it may be hard to carry on a conversation, but I did not do this so I'm not sure. One suggestion I would have is to have a list of "todays flavors" available for customers to see as they wait in line. You don't really see all of them until you order (or later) - unless you step out of line to look. read more

This place has an amazing ice cream selection, as well as home made waffle cones I can smell when I come in. The service is always warn and friendly! read more

Cute ice cream shop near the Fox River. They have lots or unique and delicious flavor options. Plus they make their own waffle cones. Service was quick and friendly, our server was patient as we sampled many flavors. There is seating inside and lots outside on the patio. Prices are very reasonable for what you get. We will definitely be back for more! read more

Decided to walk here on a nice night. I saw they had a 15% off coupon for checking in on Yelp. The inside is small and they are not allowing eat in at this time. However, plenty of tables on the patio. My boyfriend and I split a junior size 2 scoop which was a decent size. We tried the strawberry cheesecake and it was delicious. Nice size pieces of cheesecake. We also had the red velvet which had pieces of red velvet cake. Lots of flavors and fast service. read more

Oh my gosh, so many flavors I want to try! There was a quite a line but it moved quickly. The server was kind, repeated the order, and got our scoops correct. There are some tables and chairs inside but can't wait to try the patio in spring and summer! The ice cream was SO good! read more

Hard to find a good ice cream place with DQ and Oberweiss everywhere and MAN have we found it!!! I had a regular size cookies and cream malt while my husband had a regular size double scoop of chocolate peanut butter in a waffle cone. My regular size malt was perfectly blended, delicious, and BIG. His ice cream had an amazing amount of peanut butter and the chocolate was creamy - in addition to the nice surprise of PB cups in the ice cream too! There were a plethora of girls working behind the counter and though the creamery was PACKED, we were greeted and helped within three to four minutes Cannot wait to return! read more

I am a chemotherapy patient. I use a "Cold Cap" system in an effort to minimize my hair loss. Each time I have a chemo infusion, I need 50 pounds of dry ice. Batavia Creamery has supplied all my dry ice at a great "chemo" discount and with superb service. The crew at the Creamery loads the ice into our cooler and into our car. While we are there, we certainly enjoy their delicious ice cream: they have many delicious flavors. I truly appreciate Batavia Creamery's contribution to my chemo treatment routine. Great to have a resource like this in our community! read more

Batavia Creamery is a nice little spot in downtown Batavia that offers a plethora of treats to satisfy your sweet tooth (and then some!). It is a pretty popular place so be prepared. However, the crowds may be a bit misleading. We popped over with friends on a nice afternoon, one of the last "decent" days of the season, and all (adults and kids alike) grabbed some ice cream. There was an assortment of flavors chosen and even one large lemonade (mine). Everyone seemed to enjoy their treats throughly and left no bite uneaten. I looked forward to my lemonade but... my daughter spilled the entire cup prior to me taking the first sip. Oh well, it happens. In sampling other's choices I ultimately feel like Batavia Creamery is tasty ice cream but nothing that sets it above and beyond the rest. The taste is good, the prices are decent, and the staff is quick and friendly. There is nothing not to like but there also isn't anything that has me raving. Full disclosure: I'm not THAT big of a "sweets" guy so take this review with a grain of salt-ed caramel (heh). If you're in the area and have a hankering then stop in and indulge. However, I wouldn't say this is a spot you seek out from near and far. read more

Excellent ice cream, rich, and smooth --flavors galore! Wonderful and smiling staff! My all time favorite amaretto cherry and eggnog! YUM, all the flavors are delicious! It's a downtown Batavia favorite spot! read more

It's great that this ice cream place is practically on the fox river trail so I can stop by during my bike ride. Besides ice cream, they have smoothies and iced coffee. There's a bike rack nearby to park your bike. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. It's located in a strip mall near other food options offering hot dogs, tacos and pastas. Cappuccino Crunch was awesome. I'm not a huge coffee ice cream fan, but I really enjoy this particular flavor and texture. $3.50 for a scoop of ice cream. ....| \ _ , , , - - , , _ , .../ , ` . - ' ` ' . _ \ - ; ; ; , _ ..| , a - ) ) _ . ; .

I visited Batavia Creamery recently with my four year old son as he read over 30 books this past month! When we arrived we were met with a warm and welcoming staff. Especially the young woman who we met. I believe her name was Maya. She was so helpful in making my son's day so special. He often finds trouble in speaking with others because of his learning disabilities but she brought him out of his shell. That girl deserves a raise!!! I will be back just for my son to meet with her! See you soon! - Joshua Blain read more

Our absolute favorite place to get ice cream! Everything we've ever tried has been unbelievably delicious and they have plenty of flavors to choose from including unique flavors you won't find anywhere else. The owner and all employees are always awesome and friendly. It's situated in a perfect spot too so you can stay and eat there or go for a walk by the river, walk to a park, etc. We recommend the creamery to everyone- it's our happy place! read more

I love when you walk inside somewhere and the aroma emotionally transports you back to your childhood. Batavia Creamery was that for me last night. It reminded me of getting ice cream as a little girl with my family on a hot summer night during vacation. The smell of sugar and cream is strong and I love that! THE SHOP: The place was hoppin' on a Tuesday night. It was only 72 degrees outside, but it's never too cold to eat ice cream, right? We were a little confused as to where the line started and ended, so we wasted a few minutes in the wrong spot. Once we figured out we were behind a bazillion people, we were all set, and a little impatient. They have freezers filled with ice cream cakes, ice cream pies, clown cones, and more. They have a few tables inside and outside for guests. THE GOODS: FIRST! They get 5 stars off the bat because they have peanut butter SAUCE - most only have peanut butter (blah). As for the ice cream: it's creamy and delicious, as you would expect. Large selection of flavors - some I've never heard of. I need excuses to make the 35-minute drive to Batavia to try more of these flavors - ideas? My tiny bowl of chocolate peanut butter ice cream, with Reese's cups and peanut butter sauce on top, hit the spot. The ice cream contained very thick ribbons/chunks of peanut butter - another 5 stars right there. Since I got the next size up from the mini (a mini is "golf ball sized"), it was hard to add any toppings without it falling off, which means you don't get much topping. Next time I will ask them to put my scoop inside a large bowl so they could dump a ton of Reese's cups and sauce on top! YELP COUPON: If you check in on Yelp when you get there, you get 15% off your entire order. My little bowl with 2 toppings was $4.00 after the discount. Not much different than Coldstone pricing. Worth it. Great place to bring the kids any time of year. You should go. Now. read more

From out of town and here visiting family who live in the area. Great selection, super cute atmosphere, and friendly staff. It was a bit busy when we came in and initially there was only one worker. Eventually another worker came out and helped get the service going a bit quicker but that was my only complaint. Family friendly and tons of yummy choices. Has a scoop of lemon cheesecake and a scoop of pistachio almond. You can't go wrong with anything you get there! read more

Great great great ice cream. Reasonable price compared to other quality shops in the area and make no mistake this is quality ice cream heavy on the butterfat which makes all the difference if you know good ice cream. Plus Blackberry ice cream!!!! And the oatmeal ice cream was also to die for.we read more

I came into Batavia Creamery recently and let me tell you it was scrumptious. Service was excellent and the ice cream was very cold. The young lady who took our order, I think her name was Mayo was very helpful especially when my young son would not stop bothering her with stickers. She was very patient. I will definitely be back and I hope you have regular M&M's as well. read more

I can only comment on the dairy free ice cream, and it is not tasty. I prefer the alternatives I can get from Ben and Jerry's, Trader Joe's and Aldi to this. My partner seems to like the regular ice cream well enough. read more

I have Batavia Creamery to thank for coming to the rescue of my ice cream cravings during the global pandemic. Not only were they one of the few ice cream shops open late, but with convenient curbside pickup. The staff were extremely helpful in guiding me through their menu options when I ordered over the phone. And I didn't have to wait long at all once I arrived. To top it off, their ice cream is delicious! So creamy and great portions too. I do have to say it was a little pricier than I was expecting, but very comparable to Graham's located nearby. I will be back! read more

Okay....one word...AMAZING! Ordered a special order spooky cake for my grandson that had to be ‍ Dracula and this place delivered beyond our wildest expectation! The decoration was spot on but underneath was pure deliciousness! Not your typical ice cream cake...this actually was real cake topped with the best chocolate ice cream and whipped icing ever!!! Our "dieting" guests even had to have a second serving!! The owner reached out and the customer service was top notch. In this day of "non-touch" this personal human touch, kindness, service, and excellent product meant SO much. PLEASE go here if you have a special occasion or ordinary occasion need for deliciousness. AND extra bonus, you are supporting a wonderful local business!! read more

So after yeaaarrrsss of knowing Batavia Creamery was around, I finally stopped in on a casual weeknight evening shortly before closing time. It was my very first time in the shop. There were a couple groups of younger girls getting ice cream and I was hoping to hear a bit about the shop, the flavors, and the options by the girls working behind the counter, but I was only quickly asked what I want, served just that, and asked for payment. That said, the ice cream was great! And the portion was a great size! I think I got 2 small scoops and it was just over $4. I forget the flavors now, but something like carrot cake and maple something. They had a ton of creative flavors, which is what I love in a good ice cream shop! I'll stop by again if I'm in the area to try out more flavors but hopefully they'll be a bit friendlier next time. read more

So much happiness. Blue moon is as much of the nest part of my childhood as fireflies and exploring the woods in Wisconsin. Stopped here as I recall my cousin meeting me here years ago. Huge selection of ice cream including non dairy and vegan. Ice cream is rich and unique. Flavors are classic to magical unicorn. Blue moon or in this case it was Moon Rocks, so blue moon goodness with colorful cookie dough. As a child, we would drive up to Wisconsin from Chicago and stop at creameries on the side of the road for cheese and ice cream....there was this flavor that was blue and I described as fruit loops but maybe its more rice crispy treats? It is never found in a store or distributed commercially. You can get it here though. Thank you a moment of bliss. read more

The ice cream was pretty good. It was really crowded when we went which must mean this place gets some good business! Maybe we just had a really chaotic experience when we went though because it seemed like there wasn't really a "line" to order. I would still recommend trying out this place though! read more

Having visited Batavia Creamery several times over this steamy summer I am ready to up them to 5 stars! Consistently friendly and helpful service and some of the best ice cream the Hubs and I have ever had, anywhere. And I'm an ice cream fiend so I've had a lot of ice cream over the years. They have a huge selection and everything we've tried has been great. Nice and creamy, fresh tasting and never any issues with ice crystals. They even have several kinds of vegan ice cream as well (on my most recent visit they had 6 - 8 vegan types to choose from). As I mentioned before the "junior" scoop size is what I would consider a normal-sized scoop. Their prices are also great, especially in comparison to the fancy/boutique ice cream parlors we've visited before and their ice cream is every bit as creamy-delicious-wonderful. read more

I'm a picky bastard when it comes to ice cream. I've made it for years at home, so I tend to be hard on ice cream places. This place is really excellent. The ice cream is fantastic, rich flavors and a great mouthfeel. If you can't have homemade, go here! I went with the little monsters and we tried: Strawberry Vanilla Oreo Mint chocolate chip Superman Salty caramel pretzel The mint chocolate chip was a standout for me. During the summer I like to use mint from my garden in my ice cream, so artificial mint flavor (think gum) in ice cream is really off putting. The mint chocolate chip tastes like fresh herb-y mint. They absolutely nailed it. I don't know what purists would tell you, but Superman and the salty caramel pretzel ice cream together was awesome. Superman was my favorite flavor at the local ice cream place growing up, so I had to get it, but paired it with an adult-y flavor. Now I'm hooked on that combo. It's a gorgeous day so we had our ice cream outside, but it was so good we ended up going back so I could get some to-go for the man. (Peanut butter caramel brownie!) There's a bunch of cool stuff in the area, so when it gets warm out just pop in for a cone and then wander around! read more
