I've been coming to Cathy's since I was a kid and it never disappoints. My brothers and I love the Blue Moon ice cream! There is indoor and outdoor seating, although the indoor seating is limited. They do have a small dock you can pull up to if you're coming from the lake, but it probably can't accommodate larger boats or multiple boats at once. The candy selection has decreased over the years but they do have a fun options of candy, chocolate and ice cream! It can get pretty busy in the evenings and on warm days, but the line moves quickly and the staff is always welcoming and efficient. read more

Several years later..: I've revisited Cathy's. They've reduced their chocolate and candy selection, made the space a lot more open but no indoor seating yet. They have 35 different flavors of still overpriced ice cream but it all looks good. Plenty of outdoor seating. read more

Cathy's Ice Cream N Candy Shoppe - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Saint Germain, Wisconsin

Best ice cream around!! There are so many from to choose from so you can grantee there is something for everyone there. The shop itself is so cute and all the workers are very friendly. They are always wearing smiles which is nice to see. The shop has so many different candies of all sorts. Some of them I had never seen before. For ice cream I got (and always get) the French silk pie flavor. It is by far my favorite! The ice cream is sweet and chocolatey. I have a strong love for French silk pie and the ice cream tastes similar. The portions are huge! I got a junior scoop and couldn't finish it. No matter what size you get you will be happy with the amount given! Definitely recommend checking this spot out!! read more

When you walk in you are greeted by at least 2 or 3 employees. There are around 20 flavors of ice cream. We ordered strawberry cheesecake yogurt, cookies and cream, and chocolate chip cookie dough. They have many different cone options. They have a patio where you can eat there if you want. They also have other candy options. Fun place to stop with your kids ! read more

So many fond memories from here for many, many years of coming up to the Northwoods. This is a "must-stop" Almost every trip. Love the flavors of ice cream and the portions are good sized. There is seating inside plus a wonderful and large deck with seating outside. We've been known to drive over and carry our ice cream back to the cabin but the best times were seated either inside or out, enjoying our treats while playing card games at the table. Picnic tables in front make brining your canine friends with and easy task. read more

Great place and super friendly. Came in late in the day and late in the season after they were slammed all day with cranberry fest tourists and were greeted with smiles. Big servings too. read more

BEST ICE CREAM EVER. We make it a point to come here every single time we're in town. There service is a good and they have spaces inside and out to sit. During these times, they have the inside seating closed however. Flavors are of PLENTY and very generous portions. The only negative is the extremely long line, but they can't help their popularity! We love coming here to sit outside with the pups. Even on a rainy day, you can sit under their covered patio. read more

Cathy's Ice Cream N Candy Shoppe - Can't remember the flavor..... But in a chocolate waffle cone! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Saint Germain, Wisconsin

Sign says they are open until 10pm and it also says that online. We got there at 8:30 and someone ran to the door to lock it when we got there and they shut off the lights. We could see 3 workers inside and several people were still eating their ice cream outside.... we would like an explanation to change this review. read more

32 flavors of icecream and that's not all- they have candy and chocolates also!! Staff was amazing, very popular place - a must see when in town! read more

Cute little spot. You can access from the road or from Little St. Germain Lake. The access point to walk to the shop is not clearly marked from the water and a little hard to find if it's your first time there. Look for a small aluminum pier that leads to a grassy walk way. It's about. 0.1 mile walk from the water to the shop. Great ice cream flavors, okay prices and helpful staff. They even brought out a pup treat for our dog! read more

Always a favorite stop in the summer and has been a local hot spot for decades. Lots of flavors and good sized portions. read more

The best! Been coming here since and can remember and cathys has always been the highlight of the vacation! All of the ice cream and candy is amazing! Is a little pricy but worth it read more

Such an integral part of my Northwoods childhood memories! A huge selection of ice cream, shakes, malts and sundaes. Its not possible to make a bad choice. My preference is definitely Lady Bug ice cream! Also there are so many candy choices ranging from the favorites you grew up with, to some new concoctions you'd never imagine! You can get some by the pound or by the package. The parking lot seems small but there is more space in the back so don't despair. When you walk in the door, to the left hanging on the wall is a little hook with numbers. Be sure to take one and they'll call your number. Crucial every evening when it gets really busy with families. There is limited seating inside, but the majority of the seating is on the outside patio which was such a fantastic addition. If you're driving through St. Germain be sure to stop! They are only open in the summer though so don't delay the season is almost over! read more

Love this place! This is one of the quintessential summer Northwoods locations. Service, variety of ice cream options, old school candy selection, and more are all wonderful! read more

They have Bluemoon ice cream which frankly is all I need to know. Any time I'm in the area I would make it a point to stop by. Fun place for family to take a break and enjoy the weather with a covered outdoor area. Otherwise, If you're on the lake you can pull up and dock and make a quick stop as well. read more

Fun little ice cream shop- yummy treats! Went there on out way home from checking out the local market.

Terrible. Absolutely terrible. Stay far away from this place!! (So I don't have to wait as long in line.)

this is what my family looks forward to when we come up here. it's so good i came all the way to yelp review. great staff and big portions AND IT IS SO GOOD. love the environment and vibe. accommodates everyone's taste buds read more

Ice cream selection was great and prices are fair. Candy prices are higher and would say selection is just ok. Recommendation is to just stick with ice cream. Also good hours open till 10 pm. read more

Awesome ice cream, great service. The young gentlemen working the counter were very attentive and friendly with quick service and attention to cleanliness. Try the blue moon; very tasty like toasted almond. The mocha coffee, rainbow sherbet, and pralines and cream were awesome. read more

Best ice cream in the world! Even though it'sust Cedar Crest flavors, it seems to taste better in the north woods (: It's open until about 10 or so and it's very VERY popular! They also have a GREAT canbdy selection. I love Cathy's!!!!!!!!! read more

We love Cathy's!! Candy, ice cream, and a lovely little deck on which to enjoy your treats. This is the place to be in St. Germain!

Great little place! Wonderful selection with all the standards plus a few surprises, generous scoop sizes and reasonable prices. Friendly staff too. Business was steady but not too busy while we were there . . . although they were expecting busloads of 200 girls from a nearby camp at any minute, so we didn't linger! Seems like a wonderful endorsement though! read more

I've been coming up north for over 10 years - a trip Cathy's has always been a part of. This is where I first discovered large jaw breakers and blue moon ice cream. Always outstanding customer service and many find memories. Keep up the good work! read more

Not a big ice cream fan, but this place gives massive scoops. You want ice cream? Go here!

When I walked up to the door I found out that this place was packed. I decided to wait and was pleased to see that the line moved along. My problem was I didn't know what to get so I got two scoops. The mississippi mud was pretty good, coffee and cookie flavor. read more

Great ice cream and very clean. Cash only - don't forget. The have a wide variety of ice cream and candy. Outdoor sitting area on porch as well as indoors. Can get very busy during peak summer time but don't worry as the employees work quickly. read more

Very nice, kind place with nice, kind workers. The place is adorable! My kids loved it! They have a nice variety of different ice cream flavors to choose from. Big portions of ice cream (which is good). The only thing I would complain about is that it's quite pricey. Otherwise I'm in love with it. read more

Good selection of ice cream as well as great price for the amount you get. Our 2 year old son had his first ice cream cone here & it's safe to say blue moon was a hit! read more

Called yesterday to see if they were having Fathers Day specials, like on Mothers Day. Yes they were-she told me. Took husband for a Father's Day treat today but was extremely disappointed. Got there just before noon. The girl who opened store was not very friendly. She wouldn't return a smile acting like she didn't want to be there today. She charged full price for the Fathers Day special because "my boss never said anything about it". Told her I called the day before & was told yes & that's why we drove all the way there. No comment. His $4.50 Turtle Sundae was not good, like before on Mothers Day; much smaller than usual & instead of the whole pecans she put on chopped walnuts which made it taste funny. What a letdown. Cathys used to be so much better. I live up here year round & I really can't give the recommendation I used to. read more

We love Cathy's and come here twice every vacation at least. It's hard to screw up ice cream and candy.

Typical ice cream products. Great tasting. What makes it 5 stars is you get great taste along with huge portions and low cost. I ordered 2 scoops on a waffle cone. There was at least a pint of ice cream. Cist was $4 read more
