The custard spot.

I've been coming to this establishment for many many years, used to go to the high school and walk to this place. Until today. Came here to sit and eat all while there was not a single soul there. The lady who owns the white mustang walked out and told us we had to leave in a very HOSTILE MANNER, as we were finishing up..... "I have to clean up everyone's trash pizza boxes, I have to pay when it gets over filled, blah blah blah." Okay? We wernt going to leave trash and since it was SUCH A BIG DEAL we will take our trash and OUR BUSINESS elsewhere. Not even three seconds later she comes back out and screams at us again to leave in the most rude attitude she could give. I will definitely be telling everyone I know about how disgusting and disrespectful this interaction was. And to never recommend coming here. There are a thousand other ice cream places to go to and screamers and others will take my money. I'll never give my money to people who are so insolent and Discourteous to their customers. To the lady who was so arrogant, and Repulsive, keep picking up trash its the only thing your good at. Stay away from customers because id hate to interact with you again with that trashy mouth.

This little place has been around for years which speaks volumes right there. The menu is expansive and the custard is delicious. There's plenty of tables to enjoy your treat at their outdoor seating in the backyard. The service is usually prompt and friendly. The parking area is a very short distance away and best of all, it's paved. (There's another popular custard place nearby but their lot is dirt and gravel which makes it a messy place to park if the weather isn't great). So it's a big plus to come here just for that reason alone. The menu has so many choices, you'll have to come back again and again and again.

Delicious as I remember it being several years ago when I used to walk here from my sisters house in the neighborhood behind it! It's been YEARS since I got to enjoy the Custard Spot and it did not disappoint! My brownie batter flurry was excellent and my significant other's Oreo cheesecake flurry was loaded with toppings. We both ordered the medium size and it was A LOT! another great thing about The Custard Spot is that they have featured flavors all season long. I remember my parents taking us every couple of weeks as kids so THEY could try the limited edition flavors! Definitely worth a visit!

Lots of choices for custard, tried several, all are very good! The only thing is they only accept cash, which makes it an inconvenience for me because I don't carry much cash around...

Pistachio froyo with toasted coconut. DELISH

This is the only place that can really satisfy my froyo obsession. Custard Spot offers everything for the ice cream store trip. 24 flavors of ice cream, froyo or frozen custard, slushes, flurries, premium Mackinaw Island ice cream, and a plethora of toppings. During the summer evenings they are pretty busy so expect to wait in line. But any wait is worth the light sweet taste of their froyo! I prefer to order a different flavor froyo each time, sometimes with toasted coconut topping. There is plenty of room to hang around with your friends/family and chow down on your frozen treat. Lot of standing room and several benches and tables behind the store. Each week they have a new flavor of the week, which is custard only. They also have featured items, like "authentic" Mexican fried ice cream (that's what their sign says!) & they'll mix their flavor of the week into a flurry or fun parfait concoction. Servers are always friendly. But beware - they take cash only so leave your cards & checks at home!

Oreo Parfait and Cookie Monster Cup

This place is a staple for Van dyke. The best ice cream around. I try to go on days I know there wont be a big crowd as my kids can get distressed pretty quick . My kids love the Cookie Monster cup,,, I mean blue sprinkles, a choc chip cookie and eyes all on top of ice cream What's not to love.

Love this place! Great custard cones! Reasonable prices. It's our Go to for cones! We bring our…read moreGrandkids here for a treat too!

What a disappointing place Trailside has become under its new ownership! We stopped by in the…read moreafternoon for ice cream and had a very unpleasant experience. To start, when we tried to order the Dole Whip listed on their menu we were told that the machine was being "cleaned." Yet, they had a large container of it sitting right there that they were willing to sell us as a bulk item for $5 instead of a $3 cup. If you have the product ready to go in a container, why can't you simply scoop out a single serving? More to the point, why are soft-serve machines being shut down for cleaning in the middle of the afternoon? The cleanliness was disgusting! The ground was covered in cherries that were attracting swarms of wasps! Customers were forced to constantly dodge wasps just while waiting for their orders! These cherries were had been there for a WHILE! Someone really needed to go out there and clean up. To top it all off, when we tried to pay with a gift card with THEIR BRAND NAME on it, the staff refused to honor it. They claimed it was issued under their "previous owners". We even had a receipt for the gift card! Super fun to try and invest in a local business by purchasing a gift card but then be denied using it! Refusing to honor your own gift cards and having an unclean area is a terrible way to retain customers, especially in a LOCAL business.
