Bruster's Real Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Aldie, Virginia

My server Adam was certainly behoviaen himself ! 10/10 service and I hope to see Adam more

Dear fellow ice cream connoisseurs, Prepare yourselves, because I have discovered the gold standard of customer service. If you have the pleasure of being helped by Adam, you're in for a treat that's somehow even sweeter than the ice cream itself. Adam was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely enthusiastic from start to finish. He answered every question with a smile, made excellent recommendations, and somehow turned ordering ice cream into a five-star experience. His attention to detail and positive attitude made it obvious that he truly cares about every customer who walks through the door. You should give this guy a raise!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Adam made our visit unforgettable! His customer service was absolutely amazing--super friendly, welcoming, and genuinely enthusiastic. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. The ice cream was delicious, but Adam's incredible attitude is what will keep us coming back. Give this guy a raise ASAP!!! read more

Amazing service by the staff today. Shout out to Anthony, Nic, Willa, and Ellie for the great service and energy brought to make my milkshake. Will in fact be back again for another shake. Great vibes! read more

I visited this place yesterday with my daughter. She had strawberry on a waffle cone. Service: One of the worst that I have had in Virginia. They sit behind a window on a counter which they only open to hand you the ice cream, and take your payment, this is the closest thing that I have seen to an indoor drive thru. No place to sit inside or outside. Ice Cream: This was no different Thant he one you buy at any grocery store, simply put unremarkable. Atmosphere: Non existing, no place to sit, no tables, no high tables, the place was freezing because they intentionally left the door open in the middle of the winter. Floor was dirty, and the lights dimmed so the place feels old and dirty. You are better off driving 10 minutes to another place read more

I've always enjoyed visiting Bruster's in Aldie for a treat, but my recent experiences have completely changed my perspective. On more than one occasion, I've witnessed the man I later learned is the owner--Joel--yelling at both customers and employees in a very unprofessional and aggressive manner. During one visit, he harshly reprimanded a group of young kids in the store, speaking to them in a tone that was entirely inappropriate. Even more concerning was how he treated his staff. I watched as he publicly berated a young employee in front of customers, clearly embarrassing them. It was uncomfortable to witness, and I can only imagine how demoralizing it must be to work under that kind of pressure. I later found out his name through a former employee who confirmed that this behavior wasn't a one-time thing. It's disappointing to see such a great local business tainted by this kind of conduct from leadership. Bruster's deserves better--so do the kids who go there and the young people working hard behind the counter. Update - Joel, the owner, was once again visibly upset and took it out on his staff in front of customers. He scolded young employees harshly and even threw a scoop of ice cream in frustration. It was chaotic, uncomfortable, and totally unprofessional. This isn't just a bad day--it's a pattern of behavior that makes the whole atmosphere tense and unpleasant. I feel especially bad for the workers, many of whom are clearly doing their best under difficult conditions. A business that serves families and kids should not be run like this. Still disappointed. read more

Their strawberry ice cream was soooo good! Toppings were very good too. Definitely plan on coming back again!

Newly opened ice cream shop where, ironically, a fitness shop once were! But no worries, this ice cream churns its ice cream daily on site; which makes every bite tastes fresh & creamy! It serves different flavors each day and during my visit I opted for a small (2 scoops) in waffle cone, one of Banana Cream and the other was Cheesecake flavor! Small on a waffle cone comes with 2 large scoops enough to fill in the large opening of the cone and price go up by $1 for next size up so $4.99 (5.99, 6.99) for reg cone or cup, or $5.99 on waffle cone for a small, $6.99 medium & $7.99 large. The Small (2 scoops) was just perfect, I think, to satisfy once crave but if you must, go for more! Profitez de la vie! The Banana Cream I had was surprisingly fresh and light and not too sweet so I prefer it over the much heavier on sweet cheesecake scoop! Eat it on site because it will melt as it was not pre-frozen, hence, made daily on site! I only had those two flavors so far but based on the list I think the Banana Cream will be my preference as most seem to be more decadent, i.e., peanut butter chocolate or rocky road, etc. Staff is youthful, and lively. Perfectly situated seatings outdoor might be best spots for it has enough shade since the store is located end of the building facing east/north! I watched kids and their family devoured the goodness of the ice cream, thus, advertising what you could be eating, so enticing...it drew me in! read more

Bruster's Real Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Aldie, Virginia

Went here on Sunday night. It was PACKED! And for good reason, the ice cream was excellent. There was a manager or maybe the owner out front making sure any questions were answered. I have a peanut allergy and ordered a Cotton Candy Shake. After a few minutes I was informed that due to how busy they were they couldn't guarantee a peanut-free environment for the shake, and offered to replace with ice cream. I appreciate that gesture a lot. Stone Ridge was missing an ice cream place and this is the perfect addition to our community. read more

Came here during a busy hour and the line was so long. Luckily you can order online and they'll have it ready in around 5-10m from my experience. Quality ice cream, nice sized scoops, and the waffle cone is yummy. I don't normally get ice cream but if I ever crave for it then I'm coming back here. read more

Drove by the other day and saw 50 people around the place either waiting to order ice cream or enjoying their ice cream. This place was popping! We came tonight when it wasn't as busy. We've heard of Bruster's before but never tried it. We ordered a couple of kid's cones and some small bowls with scoops of ice cream. All the various flavors we tried were delicious and tasted fresh. Best of all, all the young staff working were super friendly and patient. After handing us our order, the young man even asked if we needed anything else like napkins, spoons, etc. very professional and hard working group of folks. Keep up the great flavors and service and this place will continue to be popping! read more

I walked into this ice cream shop with high hopes and lactose-fueled dreams. I left a changed person. First, the ice cream was so freezer-burned it had PTSD. I asked for cookie dough, and they gave me something that tasted like drywall and regret. The mint chocolate chip tasted like toothpaste mixed with despair. And not even good toothpaste--the kind from a motel bathroom. Tried to fix it with a waffle cone. It collapsed like my last relationship. The employee behind the counter looked like they'd been held hostage by a rogue gummy worm. I asked, "What's your most popular flavor?" and they said, "We don't really do... flavor." I should've left then. Also, the music playing was just a child crying on loop. Might've been a customer. Might've been me. To summarize: if you hate joy, love confusion, and want to pay $6.75 for a scoop of sadness, this is the place for you. -chlorilla, still sticky and sad read more

First off Grace is great! Excellent customer service!! My boyfriend got a craving for a milkshake 20 or so minutes before closing. We sped over and were able to get our sweet treats. Grace truly made our experience a positive one. The milkshakes were so tasty! We will definitely be back. read more

First time here and it was busy! This location has good ample outdoor seating and when you walk in it's a window you order at. I did a pick up order for today for two quarts and waffles. the mint choco chip and coffee chip were soooo good! I love a good old school ice cream than like a jenis. the waffle was individually placed in a plastic container so it was easy to eat from. waffle was perfectly crunch and yummy! really convenient if you decide to do to go order! easy online ordering and place a future order. you can pick up from the separate pick up window. so glad i found Brusters and so many locations in the area! looking forward to come back again! read more

Great ice cream! I went on the first day they opened. While waiting in line, the manager was going around and asking if anyone had any questions or needed help. I asked for flavor recommendations and they recommended Graham Central Station. I tried that one along with horchata. I'll be honest, it didn't have much flavor for me. I have been a few times so far and tried a few flavors but I will say horchata is my absolute favorite flavor. Also, the brownie sundae is AMAZING! I enjoy their outdoor seating area with umbrellas to shield you from the sun. They are a little pricey, but overpaying for ice cream on a hot summer day is honestly worth it lol. Will be returning so many times this summer! read more

I visited this location in hopes of receiving great ice cream and great service. I was provide with none of these. I was greeted by a boy who I believe is named Adam at the register, I asked for some soft serve ice cream, and Adam went on to tell me, " we don't serve that poverty stuff " I was taken aback by this comment, very unprofessional!!!! When I spoke to Joel, the owner and complained, he told me that I smelled and to go home. I was extremely dissapointed by this encounter, and will not be returning. DO NOT COME HERE! COLD STONE IS BETTER read more

Recently came to this bruster for some ice cream with my 2 year old daughter, when we walked up to the counter one of the employees i think his name was joel, was yelling at a young boy who looked about 15/16 about somthing, extremely unprofessional, my daughter started crying and we had to leave. I was embarrassed for the young man in the back, extremely dissapointed in the lack of training with handling situations. I will not be coming here again. read more

Went this weekend to finally check this place out. Wasn't overly crowded, price seemed high, but interesting ice cream flavor names. Unfortunately, while waiting in line, never got to the cashier to place my order. Overheard a customer being ridiculed just because he was confused with his order. All he did was asked if this was his order and that his ice cream is not what he thought he ordered. Poor man, he left absolute confused look, and the person in front of he when they got their order, they were complaining one small sad scoop for over 5 bucks, and it really was a small scoop! It was my turn, she didn't even say hello, no friendly smile, looking miserable and angry, I just turn around straight to the door. With rude staff and poor service, no thank you. I'll stick with Breyers. read more

Generous scoop size. Good selection of toppings. super friendly, helpful, and patient staff. We were not a fan of the dairy free options and limited choices. read more

Ice cream is decent, but it's overpriced and the SLOWEST service ever!!! Every time I've come here, even if I'm the only person there, it takes forever and the teens who work there move at a glacial pace. Last few times I went, it was either just me or maybe one other customer... 4-5 people behind the counter and it took them 15-20 minutes for a basic banana split (3 scoops of ice cream, a banana, whipped cream). If I hadn't already paid, I would have left. The kid was scooping each scoop as if each weighed 100lbs. read more
