Fantastic ice cream! Ordered a kids waffle cone and it was a decent size! Had the cookie jar and my friend had cookies & cream. Huge chunks of cookies, super fresh ice cream and delicious waffle cone. A little pricy, but for high quality - it was worth it! Only downside is that they don't have an inside area to sit. The misters are nice, but outside in the summer was rough! read more

Bruster's is always busy especially during the summer! I typically like to order ahead to bypass the lines and the wait. What's nice ordering online is that they provide an estimated time of when the order will be finished. However I always still have to wait at least 5-10 min at their pick up window until a worker acknowledges me when I'm picking up my online orders. So now I always add 10-15 min to their estimated time that they gave me so I know for sure they finished my order. Never had issues with my orders, it's always delicious everytime. So many flavors to choose from it's hard to pick sometimes. I love their cheesecake flavors, butter pecan, and cherry vanilla. Depending on my mood I order scoops of ice cream or milkshakes if I'm on the go. If you don't like ordering ahead online they have a walk up pick up window and drive thru and benches to sit outside with umbrellas. It's a great family friendly spot. read more

Hi Yelp friends. My hubby and I are visiting our daughter in Peoria, Arizona for a few weeks this summer. We got here just in time for Father's Day. Yes, she said this is the place to go for the best ICE CREAM!!! Oh Yes! I ordered the banana cream pie, one scoop, on a cake cone. Yum! This is made with fresh bananas. Love it! They both ordered the Mint chocolate-chip, two scoops, on a cake cone. I, of course, had to help him from dripping, lol. I have to say, this was the Best! It is so good! Made with BIG pieces of chocolate. I am def gonna order this next time, and I want to try the cherry and the rocky road. We drove through the drive through after dinner and the sun was just going down. The staff that stands outside to take your order is so friendly, cheery, patient (it was my first time) , and helpful. They really do earn a little tip and they really do show their appreciation. There was a short line, but it moves quickly. They do have a cool covered patio area with tables and it is surrounded by misters. Doesn't that sound like an ice cream summer paradise?!? If you are in the area check it out! They also give you coupons when you visit for a discount, and more for your next visit. They have an app, so you can order ahead and earn rewards. It ice cream weather, so now is the time to get your ice cream! Woohoo! read more

We visit this Bruster's often--I'm surprised I have not reviewed it yet. Ice cream is the perfect treat, especially this time of year when the weather is scorching. I love how Bruster's ice cream flavor menu is constantly changing and updating with new flavors. They do tend to have some staple flavors that are always available too. For the quality of the ice cream, I feel that the pricing is reasonable, and they are very generous with providing coupons for your next visit as well. I'm sure we will be back soon! read more

We came for PJ night over the weekend and it was great! The drive-thru line was popping, and all of the windows were full of lines, but we got through so quickly. The kids worked their butt off to provide great customer service. What a fun event! Love that there's plenty of seating out on the patio, and benches along the sides. read more

My granddaughter insisted we stop by Bruster's for ice cream, and I must say it was the highlight of my evening. The nice young gentleman at the window with the adorable little mustache greeted us with the biggest smile and even gave us two thumbs up like we had just won the lottery. Such wonderful manners! You don't see that enough these days. He was patient while I took forever deciding between butter pecan and mint oreo (I still chose mint oreo because I'm not reckless). My ice cream was delicious, but Landon's cheerful attitude made it taste even sweeter. If Landon ever runs for mayor, he has my vote. Someone tell his mother she raised him right.

It's so hot this summer already! Made sure to visit this Bruster's location. We needed a sweet treat! I love the ice cream here so much! Vanilla, graham central station, cake batter and cotton candy are our faves! The prices are reasonable and the ice cream always tastes fresh. I especially love actually getting real ice cream for our dog with the doggy cup. Not just a cup of gross whipped cream like other places do. We always treat our dog when we eat bruster's too! It's the cutest! Melina helped us today through the drive-thru today and took care of us! The employees are always super friendly too read more

Q: What ice cream flavor is never on time? A: Choco-late. Have you been watching The Boys? I feel like I'm Homelander around a glass of milk sometimes. Okay, maybe not as enthusiastic as Homelander but still. Being lactose intolerant isn't a problem at Bruster's either because they have some great dairy-free options. With the weather warning up, finding a good ice cream spot is a must. Bruster's will never let you down. Get over here! read more

Holy crap you guys the sugar rush I got from this place, being on mostly a sugar free diet was insane. Me and my wife love our food-cheat place of Kitchen 7 next door and we had to eventually try this place, it's always packed every time we come. We got the resee's blast or whatever and sat out on the porch (beautiful 80 degree day, thanks pheonix for holding off the triple digit temps so far). that ice cream was so damn delicious. we shared a small and it was already so much but we ate it all up fast. Be prepared to sugar crash out after though, its alot, but damn its good. read more

Great ice cream but this place needs more employees! Long line for walk and you can't tell where the line starts or ends. People are so confused standing in line. And only one window open. It's our go to for ice cream but looking for a new place because this place won't hire enough people. Handles here we come. read more

Walking up to Busters is truly a blast from the past reminding me of ice cream stores when I was a kid. My mother-in-law and her sister were amazing by the options and are already planning their next visit. The service was awesome and my son got a free cone because he is under 40 inches. Such a deal. Although it was over 110 degrees outside the misters in the back made it so cool and inviting when we enjoyed the ice cream. This truly is a small town feel in a big city. read more

I gotta give it to them...they're consistently good! The young kids working here are always friendly and helpful, which you expect at a "feel good" experience like Ice Cream! They have a great selection of DAIRY FREE/VEGAN Flavors that are constantly changing, a program where they give your little one a FREE Baby Cone if they're under 36", and that includes Vegan Flavors (no up charge), and $1 Off Coupons all the time when you order. The parking is abundant, the menu is easy to read, they have misters outside and plenty of seating, and best of all...drumroll...a drive thru! read more

Came to Bruster's after a hard Abs and stairmaster workout at planet fitness up the road. Was pretty depleted, so Bruster's to the rescue. My boyfriend is more of the ice cream lover and I'm a cake lover, HOWEVER, this place was DELICIOUS! I got the birthday cake flavor and it had so much yummy yummy frosting in it and also got the smores made with oreos! They both had so many delicious chunks and mix ins! I added a scoop of cookie dough chucks and they did NOT skimp. LOVED how much cookie they added! Now I'm hooked. Can't wait to go back and try other flavors. The atmosphere was nostalgic with content people enjoying their ice cream outside liked the old times. Overall great experience read more

was craving some ice cream after dinner. We ended up at brusters. Right when we pulled in the line was pretty long but moved fast. They have a QR code while you wait in line to order. I decided to try the banana peanut butter ripple. For one scoop there was a good amount for 2 people. There was a nice blend of banana to peanut butter. You can see a drizzle of peanut butter. They have drive thru is you do not want to wait in line. They also have seating in front and also seating behind the store front. The setting is pretty chill and relaxed. read more

I hadn't gone to a classic ice cream stand/joint like this for a while. It's pure nostalgia. We went there after dinner after dark but I feel like it would be perfect during the day after some walking around. I loved how many options they have for ice cream! I can go there every day and pick a different flavor! I chose the black raspberry cheesecake this time and it was delightful. I loved the combination of the creamy cheesecake and the refreshing raspberry! The service was quick and friendly as well! read more

My favorite the mint chocolate chip. They get super busy , but move the line quickly.

I had never heard of Bruster's, but a buddy mentioned having it in CA, and they're now in TX as well. After leaving a nighttime baseball game, we swung by and found a large crowd around the building, many of whom were in line. We were a little confused as to the flavors they had, as the smaller sign above the window didn't match the larger stand-up menu outside. Luckily, the larger menu was current. I had a small waffle bowl with scoops of the PB Cup and Banana Nut Bread. Both were delicious. The bowl was thick, so it was a little difficult to break and eat with a plastic spoon. Once I did, however, it was delicious. A lot of ice cream for a very reasonable price. Service was friendly too. We'll definitely be back to this or another location. read more

The employee who was working the drive thru today on 12-10 wouldn't stop saying "is that it? Is that it? Is that it" like please let someone talk before jumping down a customers throat. Ice cream is decent but the teenagers give poor service. read more

Whenever I'm in the area I try to hit this joint as the quality has been on point... tried a new location and have to say I'm greatly disappointed... Ordered the banana split, which gave me the option to pick 3 ice creams and toppings... I feel taken advantage of as the scoops were tiny, so the overall portion was disappointing. This place is a joke, won't be back. For $10 I can get much more value elsewhere. read more

They have dairy free options!!!! Ice cream has always been my weakness and ever since I have been dairy free going to ice cream shops has become a sore spot for me. But Bruster's has given me hope!!! I'm not sure what their base is but it was creamy and I could not tell the difference. It's so creamy and smooth and they have different flavors than your standard chocolate or vanilla. I got mint chocolate chip and strawberry (so good!!) They have a drive thru or you can walk up to the window and order. They do have a few seats but you might have to stand if you plan on hanging outside for a bit. The service was fast and they were friendly. I can't wait to go again!!! read more

LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Never been disappointed. The lines might be long but well worth the wait !

We used to come here all the time. This was our favorite ice cream place because of the rich flavors and delicious chunks of toppings in the ice cream. My kids both have loved the cotton candy explosion since they opened. I loved the dark chocolate cherry chunk and campfire smores. We went tonight to get ice cream to-go and surprise the kiddos when they got home. No more cotton candy explosion??? Whaaaaat? And no more dark chocolate cherry chunk??? Double heart break! I got the campfire smores but there were zero chunks of anything and it just looked like it was puréed in a blender and frozen (horrible taste too). I switched it out for cookie dough which wasn't much better. Only a few bits of cookie dough that tasted like cheap biscuit batter folded up. There were some random peanut butter chunks (yuck) which was very confusing. I got different flavors for the kids (eclair, cookie dough, mint chocolate chip) - nobody was impressed. It's so sad to see these changes. I don't know that we will be making the drive to come here anymore. read more

My family & I was in the area & always wanted to try Bruster's ice cream. It's located outside the Westgate entertainment district located near the AMC, Mexican restaurant & Chicken N pickle. We purchased 3 scoop southern banana pudding ice cream (banana flavor ice cream) in a cup for $7. The ice cream was good but would have been better if it was made with vanilla ice cream w/ banana pudding. We also were given a coupon after our order was completed. A tip to download their app ahead of time to receive $3 credit & earn points. We would love it they would offer family deals such as pints of any flavor. read more

We usually look forward to having ice cream at Bruster's. We know that they rotate their flavors and that some of them are seasonal. But the last few times we were there, they didn't have any of our favorites. We like Black Cherry, Jamaican Me Crazy and Chocolate. We've been trying other flavors, but none have really 'wowed' us. I thought the sorbets would be refreshing but they were too sweet for me. Besides not enjoying the ice cream as we had in the past, the higher prices have also discouraged us a little from going back. On the positive side, the staff always has a smile for you and the line moves fairly quickly. read more

What's neat about this place is that they give you a one dollar coupon after you buy something to encourage you to come back. Like any ice cream/frozen yogurt place, you get more bang for your buck by getting the take home options. At this place, you can choose to do a take home pint, quart, or half gallon. The pint costs a little cheaper than getting 4 scoops which makes it a deal. Some of the best deals though are the party pack options. A take home quart costs $14.39 and they only let me put two flavors in it. Baskin Robbins take home quarts cost around $11 and you get more to put more flavors in your quart. However, what I love is that they really fill your take home boxes to the brim. There's over 10 flavors of ice cream and the ones I ate were quite delicious. read more

never been skimped this bad by Brusters. nearly $8 for this and the scoops are smaller than i've ever gotten before. still delicious but disappointing + they gave me the wrong flavor! oh well read more

Although cold outside, we were looking for a small something sweet after dinner. The young lady who assisted us was very helpful. She answered our questions politely. We were definitely impressed with the number of dairy-free options they have here! Most ice cream places have a single sorbet, but Bruster's had well over 6-7 options the night we visited! We'll definitely stop by again when in the area. read more

Took my grandson to this place yesterday. It will be the last time we go. They were severely understaffed. The two teenagers working have no idea on how to deal with customers. After taking care of the customer in front of us neither worker acknowledged us. One went and worked the drive-thru. The other opened a second window while we stood at the first open window. All the customers behind us went to the second window and were helped although we were there before them. I had to call out to the two workers before either looked at us. We walked away without buying anything. I later called the manager and was told they are trained to handle the drive-thru first. The manager offered a freebie to make up for this which I refused. The way I make up for this is to tell as many people as I can including through this review to avoid this place. read more

Overall rating: 3.5/5 Wait: 4/5 Arrival time: Friday 5:45pm Food: 3/5 Order: strawberry, pistachio, rocky road Service: n/a Price: 3.5/5 Worth a try but probably won't be back Brusters presents an eclectic mix of ice cream flavors that aim to tantalize the taste buds. On a bustling Friday evening, the wait was minimal, and the service, although not applicable, seemed swift. The trio of strawberry, pistachio, and rocky road offered a unique twist on classic favorites. However, the flavors, while ambitious, fell short of expectations, leaving a peculiar aftertaste that hinted at artificiality. The pricing, moderate for artisanal ice cream, might appeal to those seeking a novel experience. While Brusters has potential, it may not entice a second visit unless one's palate favors the unconventional. read more

2/6/2026, 3:34:02 PM Ticket #086353300. Order E06300012. Amount of Sale $30.46. The order was To Go. The person who waited on us did a poor job of preparing our order. We were disappointed when we arrived home to enjoy our ice cream. We ordered 2 Turtle Sundae in waffle bowls. 1 of the Sundae had no hot fudge, and the other had a squirt of hot fudge. Both had a squirt of caramel. We ordered 3 scoops of ice cream. They were packed in a small cup, and the flavors were smashed together. We have been to your establishment several times and know how the Turtle Sundae is made and what to expect. I have to ask why this person has a job. I hope management has a talk with the person because a small business can't afford someone like this working for them. This is for the 51st Ave Location, Glendale, AZ. read more
