Custard Spot is pretty popular, so expect a long line in the summer (but it's totally worth it). The menu is expansive, with so many creative options that it's hard to choose what to get. There are also plenty of tables and outdoor seating in the back, which makes it a nice place to sit and enjoy your dessert. We ordered the Dubai Chocolate Strawberries Parfait and the Nutella Biscuit Parfait. The portions were so generous that we couldn't even finish both. I didn't care for the biscuits in the Nutella Biscuit Parfait but it was still delicious. The Dubai Chocolate Strawberries Parfait was outstanding. We'll definitely be back to try more flavors since their menu is so creative and unique. read more

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. read more

Custard Spot - The custard spot. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Shelby Township, Michigan

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. read more

Who can be disappointed with custard?! It's always yummy and service is great! Keep up the great work and putting smiles on people's faces! read more

After a nice dinner at a local place, we decided to stop for a treat. We normally stop somewhere else in the area, but their weekly flavors were not down our lane. I like that the Custard Spot has kids sundaes at really good prices, so you're not paying a lot for a big serving a kid can't finish. And so many options and flavors! Friendly folks at the window, and a nice spot with tables and benches in back to sit and enjoy. Cash only, so lei that in mind. This is some awesome custard and might be our new go-to spot. read more

Solid little ice cream spot with a variety of flavors and excellent service. Don't know if it would be a destination, but definitely worth stopping in if you're in the area and looking for ice cream. read more

Really disappointing experience. After waiting 45 minutes in line, my not even one year old niece accidentally dropped her ice cream right in front of the staff, and instead of showing any understanding or basic customer service, the owner made us pay again. I wasn't upset about the money -- it was just a ridiculous way to handle the situation. It's the principle. Being a small business, and specifically talking directly to the owner, she could've had some heart instead of taking another $4.45 from me. I let her keep the change since she clearly needs it. On top of that, they only accept cash, really inconvenient. Definitely not a small business you want to support! read more

Very good custard and hard dip - CASH ONLY. Have been there several times - nice place to sit and good parking . Might be a line.....

Great place...super organized, clean with great ice cream and custard products. TOP NOTCH SERVICE!!

Warning this place is cash only... super annoying and you have to plan ahead if you don't normally carry cash. Also the line moved very slowly. Husband and I both got Gurnsey hand dipped ice cream and of course it was great since it's from Gurnsey. We liked how the cones had drip catchers. However the spoon was very pliable making it hard to eat the hand packed ice cream. Overall the whole experience was just ok but the Gurnsey ice cream was good. We will probably stick with our usual Dairy Queen unless we want the hand dipped ice cream. read more

Yummy frozen custard. Many flavors to pick from. We love butter pecan scoop ice cream , however, since Mackinac island ice cream is no longer offered the quality is a little less in the scoops department. Soft serve remains amazing! A must do fun place to go! read more

This has been a staple in Utica for awhile the owners are extremely friendly and the ice cream is very reasonably priced

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! read more

Custard Spot - Oreo Parfait and Cookie Monster Cup - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Shelby Township, Michigan

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! read more

Everything is served on a small sized cake cone. My wife had a double scoop and there were ice crystals on her ice cream. I had a large custard and it looked like something in between a small and large. Frozen custard was good, just too small for the price. Wife said she didn't care for the ice cream, didn't seem fresh. read more

The owner of this place is extremely rude to customers. Earlier this summer I went here and was sitting in my car with my sister eating our custard when she approached my car. She told us we needed to leave or the cops would come and give us a ticket since they had closed. Literally it was 5mins past close and we were consuming a product of the business we were parked at...not quite sure how that is necessary or right. Then, not even a minute later she was flashing her brights at us and throwing her hands up while she sat in her car waiting for us to leave. It was obnoxious and rude to say the least! read more

So many options I never know what to choose here. Definitely try this place out if you haven't already! I had the small banana split cup the first time and it was really good but the cup size looked more like a large. I even asked if it was a small and the lady said yes. I ended up sharing it with my sister and I still felt like it was a lot. I tried the classic twist the second time around and ordered a small as well which looked more like a medium to me. I guess their portion sizes run big. Can't wait to try something new next time around. read more

I got the new cake batter ice cream with Oreo crumbs on top really good flavor best ice cream to get by far. Definitely a good try! Went to this place when I was younger and they had a doggie cone for my dog great family friendly environment. read more

Best ice cream in the area. Workers are very nice and seating area is great. Make sure to stop by if your in the area you won't regret it!

I grew up down the street from this place and it's by far the BEST custard ice cream. I have tried so many custard ice cream in New York City and Michigan and nothing comes close to the Custard Spot. Each time I am home, I always have to get there vanilla custard ice cream with sprinkles!! Totally worth every penny + experience. read more

I love ice cream, so much in fact that I gladly skip real meals in favor of sweet, frozen goodness. This was my first time at the Custard Spot and I was not disappointed. The building has that, old timey ice cream shack you only find at the beach feel. Which automatically put my taste buds in a good mood for their future prize. The menu is a little overwhelming, the choices even have choices. The jest is, you can get ice cream, custard or frozen yogurt. You get anything added, such as chocolate chips, sprinkles etc. You also choose if you would like a regular cone or some of their more extravagant offerings that involve waffle cones dipped in chocolate with nuts or sprinkles. Anything you want they have. On the suggestion of the cashier I went with a regular cone of German chocolate custard. After settling at a table around back (which is a lovely, well tended area) I was surprised how flavorful my custard was. It was smooth and just enough to satisfy my taste buds demands. I see no reason to give the Custard Spot anything but five stars! read more

Hands down the best place in the area to get ice cream / flavored custard, etc. we especially enjoy the strawberry cheesecake parfait. Seriously so good with pieces of cheese cake and strawberries. There is also a nice outside seating area in the back. I think it's time to start taking credit cards, cash only. Gets pretty busy on summer nights. read more

Best place for a late night or mid-day ice cream snake. I have been here many times and can always pick something different, there are so many flavors and types of ice cream or custard. The only problem I see is that some days there's a line of 12-24 people. read more

Custard spot has great custard and choices! You can get any flavor you want and not be limited to weekly flavors. It seems they have more choices on their menu vs. Erma's Frozen Custard. A plus as well is that they offer a dog friendly ice cream treat! I always do the birthday cake ice cream custard and they mix sprinkles in the batter. This way you don't have your sprinkles falling off your cone the whole time. It is refreshing and delish! Complaint wise is that it is a bit pricey, so I usually only go once a month to once every couple months as a treat. Also it is a bummer that the location is right on a busy street. Standing in line is somewhat close to the road and constantly hear and see cars zipping by. The area designated for sitting/eating in the back of the place is nice and decorated nicely. Another issue is that they have two windows to order, but whenever I go there it seems only one window is open. Even when there is a long line they do not seem to open the other window. read more

Craving somekind of ice cream, and they got like 3,247,411 different flavors. Every time i go here i always feel like i am holding up the line. Seriously there can be like 35 people ahead of me and by the time i get up their i have no idea what the heck i want, so many choices...I'll have a medium vanilla cone please read more

Custard Spot - Smore's Parfait - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Shelby Township, Michigan

Frozen custard is one of my favorite summer treats. Luscious, creamy, and sweet, it is like soft ice cream on steroids. Custard Spot has very good custard and their custard is also customizable. They boast 24 flavors on the side of the building. That's not to say they have 24 different custard flavors on hand, rather they'll squirt flavoring into your vanilla (and maybe chocolate - I haven't asked) custard. I'm a sucker for mint flavored anything, so the creme de menthe flavored custard is easily one of my favorite things. You can even have them roll the custard in crushed oreo cookies for an added layer of deliciousness. More recently I had a waffle cone (which they claim is homemade) filled with peanut flavored custard that had Reese's peanut butter cup pieces mixed in. Oh man! This was wonderful. Slightly salty, very sweet, and just enough chocolate - perfect flavor combo. Added bonus, they hand you the cone in a little plastic cone carrier - no melted ice cream mess! The service has always been friendly, but I've always gone at off hours. Regardless, check it out. Where else can you get 24 flavors of creamy frozen custard goodness? read more

Went to custard spot the other day to try their pumpkin custard. I got a medium cone. Unfortunately it was not as good as I was expecting. It had slight hint of pumpkins but clearly lacked the traditional spices that one would expect. The rest of their menu looked pretty good. I'll probably go back for something different. For pumpkin custard, I think I'll stick with Erma's. read more
