Perfect quick stop on way back to OH. Close to 275. Inexpensive. The burgers match the price. Don't expect a giant patty when it's only $2! My Ohio friends, this is a Swensons equivalent minus the car service and more ice cream choices. My Pretty Much Spectacular (PMS) sundae was truly great! Boys liked their burgers, fries and tornado. The beautiful day didn't hurt. read more

Blue Sky Cafe Is a nice little diner on the roadside with a welcoming feel. I had the pleasure of stopping inside with several of my friends. The first thing I noticed was all of the chrome surfaces, and the kitchen area with a cool neon clock. The dining area has a high ceiling painted blue and white, guess thats where the big sky comes in? I had the Monte Christo. It was awesome and exactly what I expected. The French dip my friend had looked very good though. Even with the busy crowd they make sure to top off your coffee and water. I'd say they deserve some business if you are looking for a good meal in this area. read more

The sloppy Joe I ordered was horrible. 10-2 25. The strawberry malt was good. You would think that they would taste the food that they serve to customers. I will never eat here again. read more

Service is always fabulous, newbies tend to be here every year but still relatively fast service, worth the wait when they're busy

Wanted to check this place out! Quaint little place off of Huron River Dr in a country setting! I just came for ice cream this time and it was fantastic!! Quality ice cream and fresh candy in the Tornado. The Tornado at Blue Sky is the equivalent of the Dairy Queen Blizzard. The grill looked good, definitely will come back! read more

Good food, great ice cream, great service... just old fashion good people with good food.

The food is very good and their ice cream is to die for and they have good hamburgers and they have really good chicken tenders and fries The service is really good and they're usually quick with your food The ambience is normal because it is outside and it is very awesome and I love it read more

I love this place the burgers and shakes are good I just hate the fry size. 6 Double Cheeseburgers read more

What a scam. The burgers are now the size of half dollars, White Castle fodder. Work conditions of their teenagers are terrible. They have no air conditioning for the youth working in there. During peak summer heat, it can hit over 110+ degrees inside of the building. They do not give the required food handling training to their employees. As a result, they place glass cleaner and other harmful chemicals near food. As for tips, they pocket the tips and do not give them in their pay as required by state and government law. Instead, they use it for a family vacation that none of their employees end up being able to attend. If you do tip, give it directly to the employee who helps you and tell them it is for them and not their employer. Burger meat is lathered with MSG, chicken patties are burned to a crisp, and oil is old and tainted with preservatives including TBHQ. This is an overrated institution that operates on nostalgia-goggle-blinded locals who think "I NEED TO SUPPORT MY LOCAL BUSINESS" and fill their faces with terrible food served by terribly mistreated employees while giving no thought or consideration for the quality of the business's product or that the business needs to earn their patronage. read more

Looks like an icecream stand but also serves burger, dogs, chicken strips, and fries. Service was excellent. Reasonably priced. I got a full meal with dessert for 10. Burger was overcooked not burnt but otherwise everything was delish. read more

Been on my list like forever to try. Such a unique relaxing outdoor setup. Pinic tables spread out and a kiddies playground, porta potty too. Ordered a couple Double Cheeseburger smallest Burger patties ever maybe a Oz each. I tried the Fatty Patty sounds like the blunts I Smoked as a teenager. It's a Double Cheeseburger, Deep Fried Cheese Sticks n Chicken Patty slathered with Bbq Sauce this was really good. Also a large order of Fries n Onion Rings. Fries be the winner come in a brown paper bag dripping wet from the grease, fat is Flavor outstanding. Next visit we try the Ice Cream desserts. #blueskyicecream #fattypatty #doublecheeseburger #frenchfries #downriverfriendseat #motorcitymunchers read more

I like the food but no effort ok my Oreo blizzard, ask for extra Oreo and asked if they actually mixes it or put it on top , was trying to tell her it was just on top but she just said we mix it and shut the window. She lied . That blizzard was bull crap. Gave me a side of Oreo I don't have a mixer at home . And to think I left a tip . Why are workers so nasty to customers these days . Wish I could take my tip back . read more

We ended our night searching for ice-cream, and we are SO happy we ended here. It was a little drive for us but we will most definitely be back, and probably more often than not. ‍ My boyfriend got the Brownie Delight and was pleasantly surprised. It was much bigger then we had originally planned and was served in a large cup instead of the suspected bowl. The brownies, chocolate and whip cream were abundant throughout the entire dessert. Not just on top like some places. I got the hot fudge sundae and added strawberry, which was probably the best decision I made all day. I got the small and it was the perfect size for me, not too small, but still super satisfying. The Sanders hot fudge they use is well beyond the normal GFS Hot Fudge canned crap served at most other places. I'm so happy with our stop here we will be back ASAP! read more

Blue Sky is our new go to Ice Cream spot now that we've fallen out of love with Frosty Boy. I have to say, we have no regrets. The prices are reasonable, the place is clean and they employ a lot of young area kids which I like. I also really like they have some different slushy syrup flavors that I have never seen before (try the grape!). It's worth mentioning that the people who only come here for the Ice Cream are missing out. The grill at this place is AMAZING! I'm not ashamed to say that we've gotten dinner from here 3 or 4 times since we discovered their delicious burgers and onion rings. Hands down the family favorite is the nacho cheese slider. What is a nacho cheese slider you say - I'm glad you asked. For some reason these visionary folks thought hey, we should put nacho cheese sauce and jalapeno slices on a cheeseburger. The results of this mash-up are spectacular. I want one right now as a matter of fact. Now I know what your thinking. That sounds great Mike but this place is nowhere near me. Ok, ok that's probably true but check this out. This place is literally a stones throw from the south entrance to Metro Airport. Next time you come home on a long flight stuck between the window and the aisle with a kid kicking the back of your chair - rather then going out Merriman to 94, instead go out Eureka to 275 and stop and Blue Sky and get a nacho cheese slider and a grape slushy for the ride back to Royal Oak or St. Clair Shores. Eh? That's your buddy Mike, always helping you out on Yelp. You're welcome. read more

Blue skies ice cream desserts slushy burgers fries . Great prices. Near by the 275 freeway and eureka exit.

I've had this place bookmarked now for awhile. As a kick off to summer I decided to take my boys here for a treat. Well I took my boy, my newly throned teenager ditched me for his buddies (sigh)... This place I must say is unique! Right off Huron river drive and Eureka it's kinda rural and country like. It's set up like your typical dairy king type place you order at the window. All kinds of ice cream delights, but also serving hot dogs, fries, onion rings, nachos etc as well as the most delightfull sliders! Many different variations on burgers and so cheap! A $1.40 a slider or 6 for $7.95. My son opted for a hotdog (always) and we got a small fry. I went with the half dozen burgers thinking I would take my MIA son some home. The burgers are sliders but big for sliders. I could barely finish one, verry tasty grilled onions ketchup mustard. It kinda reminded me of a cross between Brays and In-n-out but not greasy. While we were waiting in line two roosters were strolling around, chilling hanging out! This freaked my son out but I thought wow something you don't see everyday! I was bummed I couldn't get any pics my phone was barely hanging on almost dead...crap..oh well it was fun. My son finished off with a brownie tornado. I was good and refrained and as far as my bratty teen you snooze you lose no ice cream for you! I would definitely recommend and also a nice play area for the kiddies. We will be back for sure! read more

Hit a dead end? Just turn left! Being Burger Boys' daughter, I've grown to really appreciate good hamburgers. I was told that these are similar to Greenes and Bates, but honestly I thought these were better! They aren't as greasy, and I know that 'greasy' doesn't paint a very pleasant picture, but these burgers are so darn good. I always love the taste of onions without actually getting onions. I'm a pretty plain gal when it comes to burgers. Double cheese with ketchup only is how I roll, but I love the slight taste of onions and pickles! These burgers are perfect. I still can't get over the Fruity Pebble Tornado that I got from here! It's pleasing to the eye and the taste buds. Never have I ever got bad service from here. You can always sit down on the benches outside and watch the planes come in from not too far away! read more

Blue Sky Ice Cream & Hamburger - Fruity Pebbles Tornado - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Romulus, Michigan

I love this place! It's a walk up ice cream and burger shack. They have car shows and support a lot of local charities. The burgers are solid, and the ice cream is delicious. Many of the sundaes are made with Sanders products, so they are rich tasting. Service here is pretty quick and friendly, and there is good people watching and chatting during the wait. read more

I have got to go with the crowd on this one. It is a very unique place. It's like an old fashioned drive in without the drive. it's like a tiny ice cream shop but bigger. it's like an old burger joint but better. A big park is directly behind the ice cream shop. there is a big children's play area and plenty of picnic tables. even some friendly dogs and friendly roosters walk around. ( Yes I said roosters) All kinds of ice cream, floats, shakes, malts, sundaes banana splits, great sliders, great companies, great fries.... It is worth the visit...especially on Thursday's for the classic car show; where literally hundreds of cars are in the park. read more

A great place to eat burgers, fries, & shakes. The employees are great & delicious food. We love the family atmosphere.

Absolutely 10/10 recommend good icecream and food but I go for the awesome family environment. The people who work there are always nice and polite, play area for the kids, my kids would prefer to go here over any park! Met one of the owners and he was great, love how it's pet friendly as well! Their dogs are adorable and polite. read more

Everything about them is good!! The service is great, food is awesome and the ice cream is amazing. Love all the events the do there.

Very good little ice cream place. Food was surprisingly great. Will definitely be visiting again.

Great neighborhood place. The burgers are great when they're fresh and the shakes are worth the trip. They have car shows and other events to bring the community together, so be sure to show them some love read more

It was the best chicken fingers I've ever had!! The employees are amazing, the atmosphere on the back patio was very nice. I recommend the raspberry blue dip over vanilla ice cream :) read more

Blue Sky Icecream has gotten completely out of sight with their PRICES! we have come out there for birthdays for a few years But not anymore. It was well over $250 for sliders & icecream for our group of 10 and made a waitress come out after we already ordered. Making us have to add a bigger tip. Prices are up about 40%. Way to Expensive! Burgers not that great. Icecream good read more

Stopped by here when I was waiting to pick up a friend from Detroit Metro Airport. Sitting in the cell phone lot when I was made aware that their flight was going to be late, so in this hot Michigan summer we've been having, I looked up the nearest ice cream place. Blue Sky did NOT disappoint! I asked for a custom shake... threw together a special mixture that they all kinda looked at me weird about, but she even offered to throw in a hot dog into my shake if it was to make me happy. No upcharge for the additions into the shake... and wha-lah. A dang good shake to keep me cool for this summer. Looking around, the place was just hopping with a bunch of families. They even have a playscape for kids, and I was seeing advertisements for classic car shows on every Thursday, bike night every Wednesday. Such a gem that wasn't dirty, and looked like they really enjoyed making families quite happy. Great place! read more

THIS PLACE IS SEASONAL -- or seems to be. I'm giving this place only three stars, not because of the food, but because Yelp does not make clear that the restaurant is closed for business during the winter months, or at least it was closed in early March when we drove 15 minutes out of our way to visit the shop based on the great reviews given it here on Yelp. Imagine our dismay when we pulled into its lot only to find blue barricades blocking the parking lot entrance, the little building dark inside, and us hungry and ready to eat. We wondered how many other hungry diners had experience the same disappointment. From the looks of it, it is a summer ice cream shop that sells some fast food. Please be aware of that status and don't bring hungry appetites during the off-season. read more

Sorry, I really wish I could go with crowd on this one. As much as I would like to give this place 5 stars, my experience was undeserving of it. First, the person that was assisting me was not very friendly or welcoming at all. I ordered 2 banana cups with all vanilla ice cream, she wrote it down, and still got the order wrong. I did not make a fuss about it being that the lady was already unfriendly. The ice cream was delicious, but the overall hospitality and customer service is not that great. read more

Over 90 degree day , to go order They handed me all of my ice cream before they even started to make my food, very long wait for the food. All the ice cream melted , I asked her to keep the ice cream back there until the food gets ready before it happen , but she still insisted I take it. It all melted so they remade all of the ice cream. When they remade the ice cream I was still waiting on my banana split Which took so long even other customers noticed saying " you've been here a long time". This is after they remade my ice cream. They took everyone's order in line before they made my banana split again. So when I got the banana split all that ice cream was melted again. I just went home. Suck because this it right up the road from home . read more

This is the perfect spot to get a quick bite to eat or cool down with some ice cream. My kids love to go and play in the play area we also enjoy going On Thursday nights when they have a car show. The owners Lynne an Pat are so friendly. If you have time check it out you won't regret it! read more

Everyone that lives in Romulus knows this is the place to go for Ice Cream and Hamburgers. Family owned, very friendly, and is one of the very few places to go in the city. My personal favorite is a Peanut Butter shake, but you can't to wrong with anything. Burgers are amazing as well. There is a playground for little ones, and big grass area. They also do car shows in the summer. read more
