Apologies. I am sharing my disappointment. Our recent experience at Bruster's was awful! We visited the location on Whittlesey in Columbus Georgia and received ice cream that was completely melted as soon as we received it. When my husband brought this to the attention of the staff, the lady said it was because it was fresh and would not give him our money back! This is NOT fresh! As a matter of fact, I would think the health department might have something to say about serving ice cream that was not frozen because of potential health concerns. Why is it melted?

Seriously? This is a $5 scoop of sherbet?

Once again, I should have read the reviews before coming here so I suggest you do that as the ice cream AIN'T CHEAP!! I brought my mom here for her birthday. She got a double scoop in a waffle cone. She started off saying she didn't want a chocolate cone but then she said "it taste kinda burnt" but she was enjoying the butter pecan that she overlooked it. When she got to the strawberry she was disappointed as the butter pecan had pieces of pecan swirled in whereas the strawberry was just pink flavored ice cream. Note I got a scoop of lemon sherbet and it was good but at almost $5, I was left wanting more. Next day, she wanted more butter pecan so I take her back (my lady is 80, she gets whatever she wants) and these 3 scoops is less than the two scoops from the previous night. The ice cream didn't even go all the way down inside of the cone. Don't get me wrong, the ice cream is mostly good but when you can go into the grocery store next door and buy a gallon of ice cream for what you are paying for a few scoops, those scoops need to be the best scoops EVER!!

Child's scoop with topping

If I could give a negative star review I would. Stopped by on this Sunday, 5/29 around 3:30pm for ice cream after a movie. We decided to walk up to the window to order. Reviewed the list and made our choices. Child's chocolate cone with m&ms and choc chips. The girl taking our order had to see if they could had the toppings and finally said they did. It was givin in a cup and not cone he asked for so got a cone and put it in myself.The cost for a child's scoop with toppings was $7.74. See picture definitely not worth the money. When I questioned this I was dismissed and said that is what it is. Husband ordered sea salt caramel toffee, they did not have. He got Oreo instead. He said it was okay. I wanted the sea salt too but then changed my order to Reese's peanut butter cup, did not have. When I recommended they up date the sign I got a pretty blank stare. Then asked for white raspberry truffle, did not have. She said that they had chocolate raspberry which wasn't what I really wanted but at this point I was frustrated so I went ahead and got. It was okay as well but not great. Next time we will hit up the Dairy Queen or Marble Slab when we want a treat.

Ice Cream Cake 8in Square (suitable for 8-12 people)

My company had pre ordered a cake for one of our employees who have been working for two decades and we requested on our pre order that we wanted strawberry filled , we was so disappointed because there wasn't any strawberries. I just hope they won't do this again to any of their customers.

They didn't have these. SMH

Owner is extremely rude and money hungry. Don't ask for extra anything because he'll charge you.

So how am I suppose to order anything from you at 8:57 pm when your menu is not lit up? It's dark outside. Do better people.

I am going to have to stop coming here, not because the product isn't good, but because it is so scrumptious! If I keep coming back, I'm not going to reach my weight loss goals, so I need to find a way to practice self-control. ​Both slices were homemade deliciousness. The caramel was so creamy, and the pineapple slice came with a real pineapple ring. The cake itself was incredibly moist and full of flavor. ​Service is always great. You are greeted right away, the prices are very reasonable, and with free parking nearby, you are in and out quickly. If you visit on a Friday, you get even more flavor options. They also sell delicious cookies, like their brown butter cookie, with nut, nut-free, and vegan choices. ​They recently celebrated their one-year anniversary, and I can see them staying around for a long time. If you live in or near the area, definitely come support this small business and bring someone to share a slice with!

Run, don't walk. The flavors are wonderful, cakes are moist, and everything was so delicious. I…read morewent in to get 1 piece of cake but couldn't resist picking up a piece of pound cake and a cookie because there are so many great flavors. There are even some vegan flavors! Extremely friendly service. Parking is on the main road but easy to find around the area. The shop is small on the inside with no seating but everything is in to go boxes to take out. I'll be back when I'm in the area!

These ice creams are flavorful and there are other treats to choose from. Lately for the past month we've noticed that it's been closed during the day. We hope that this staple stays within the community because we need more small businesses that provides quality and good customer service.

I went for homemade Mexican ice cream which is my all time favorite. After seeing it in person it…read moredidn't look like authentic Mexican ice cream so I passed on it. Instead I got the Mexican ice cream bars which did look and taste authentic in rum raisin, vanilla, and pistachio. The bars are certainly on the pricey side. I have no idea when they got to $3.99 each. They also have Mexican food items but I can't comment on since I didn't have any this time. The traditional Mexican tacos I saw a Spanish family have looked good. The ladies at the counter were nice but the service was super slow. The 3 customers in front of me ordered simple items like 1 or 2 scoops of ice cream. There is a small area with a few tables and chairs to eat inside. It's very basic tho. No public restrooms although the sign says for customers only. The door was locked. When I asked to use it she said no restroom. I'll continue my quest for authentic Mexican ice cream in the area.
