HOLY COW; pun intended! My medium size waffle cone was enormous. My chocolate raspberry truffle ice cream was delicious. I will most definitely be back for more :)

We have been so excited to try Bruster's Ice Cream in Summerville! We have not had one in the Charleston area since the one in North Charleston, near Charleston Southern closed years ago. We have been watching for them to finally open. My husband and I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon. Bruster's is in a great spot and is super cute with a nice outdoor seating area with lots of seating. The day we went there was plenty of room to sit down. The ice cream was as delicious as we remembered! I had the Birthday Cake and my husband had the Graham Central Station. We were sad that the waffle cones seemed stale and they definitely didn't fill the cone with ice cream. The service was okay, they seemed a bit overwhelmed when we were there. Compared to the other ice cream shops in the area, the price is about the same but it seems that you get less for your money. I am giving them three stars for now but will try again to see if they improve since they are newly open.

Came to check out the new ice cream place in town. Pros: they make new flavors daily and have a ton of flavors. My little one was "smaller than the cone" so she got a free ice cream and was so excited. They give tons of samples and the portions are generous. Cons: slightly pricey and seating is only outdoors.

I am not a fan if ice cream but this specific place was great. The service is top notch. They are welcoming and treat you well. The ice cream is good and consistent. It is a very clean and nice area outside to enjoy your frozen treat.

Always very busy so slow to place/receive your order, but worth the wait. Great BLTs, large sides…read moreof fries, delicious icecream flavors. Their level of cleanliness leaves something to be desired. The floor always looks disgusting! The bathroom could always use a little touching up and they can't keep the tables spotless with the volume of people they have coming in and out. Otherwise it's a good place.

Ye Ole Fashioned on N. Main Street in Summerville is one of those classic, old-school spots that…read moreclearly has a loyal following--and after eating here, it's easy to see why. The food is genuinely good and delivers that nostalgic diner-style comfort that keeps people coming back. The #4 burger special (burger, fries, drink, and ice cream) is a great value and very satisfying. The burger is juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right, with a soft bun that holds everything together without falling apart. The fries are hot, crispy on the outside, and fluffy on the inside--simple, classic, and done well. Ending the meal with ice cream feels like a throwback treat and is the perfect sweet finish. Paired with a cold drink, the whole special feels filling and well thought out. The chef salad with fried chicken was another pleasant surprise. The salad was fresh and generously portioned, with crisp lettuce and well-balanced toppings. The fried chicken on top was the highlight--crispy, flavorful, and clearly made with care, adding real substance to the dish rather than feeling like an afterthought. Where things get a bit challenging is the service and overall flow. Ye Ole Fashioned stays busy, and the constant stream of customers combined with limited staff can make ordering feel chaotic. There doesn't seem to be a single, clear system--orders are taken by whoever is available at the moment. While the system does work and food comes out correctly, it can feel confusing and frustrating at times, especially for first-time visitors. The staff works hard, but the rush can make the experience feel hectic rather than smooth. The ambiance matches the old-fashioned charm of the place--simple, no-frills, and very much about the food rather than polish. Once you understand how things operate, it's easier to relax and enjoy the experience.
