    a phone on a table in front of a window

    We stopped by the Creamy after a B2B trail walk/picnic! They serve Moo-ville Ice Cream and well as frozen yogurt. I've only had Moo-ville Ice Cream once before at Station 66 in Battle Creek. It's no Ben & Jerry's, but it's local (based out of Nashville, MI) and they have fun flavors! Dexter has a smaller selection BUT enough to find your favorites. They have the fro-yo machines with a variety of flavors as well! It's obviously no longer self-serve during this time, but good to know for the future! I ordered the java chip (coffee ice cream with chocolate chunks and a fudge swirl) and my partner had the mint chip (self explanatory, ha). The scoops were really generous. I really LOVED the magic spoons, brought me back to childhood. Love the small town, wholesomeness of this spot!

    After lunch rush with single worker who was hard working and competent. Many choices in this place! You can self-serve soft-serve, then visit two candy bars. There are a couple cases of fancy flavors of Moo-ville ice cream as well. Several varieties of traditional and waffle cones. Not sure why they sell cheese, but they do. Anyway, make you decisions quickly out of consideration for the other customers. You should come back later to try something else! That is what I plan to do....

    Yum!

    Such a great place! So many yummy flavors and a plethora of topping choices. They also have hand dipped Mooville ice cream. Smoothies, milkshakes, malts and coffee drinks are also available. Wonderful local business to support and enjoy!

    Cookie Monster and a magic color-changing spoon!

    Cookie Monster (Oreos, cookie dough, and "Blue Moon" ice cream of indeterminate flavor) balanced my daughter's desire for bright colors and my dislike of MOOville's "Super Cow" color-over-taste flavor --- but still consisted largely of artificial dye. Everything got blue or green, just absolutely _everything_. I liked the frozen yogurt much more than the ice cream; it's by-the-pound (gram? ounce?), so you can get a small taste or a huge bowl. There are a bunch of toppings, but I actually just wanted the frozen yogurt itself. We saw another table buy and assemble a gingerbread house kit; this place is a one-stop shop for sugar and primary colors. The indoors venue has helped on many days that weren't conducive to Dairy Queen for one reason or another --- and I like the food here much better. Great yogurt, a nice place, and fine ice cream --- a very useful place on Main St.

    I stopped by here after a walk on the b2b trail. Super location right in town. They have many options including frozen yogurt with toppings (like pinkberry), traditional packed ice cream, along with shakes and malts. I got a double scoop waffle cone peanut butter brownie bits. It was great and satisfied my craving. It was really busy with only two staff members working so the wait was a little long. The space is small so there were a lot of people packed in which made me a little uncomfortable with covid still raging. The cones are store-bought, which is fine. I really like fresh waffle cones and I've been spoiled with some other ice cream spots I frequent. Over all a great small town ice cream joint.

    The staff is super friendly and the frozen yogurt is the best! Their frozen yogurt is very creamy and their toppings are always fresh!

    I have two puppies and I do not know if I'm aloud to get anything when with them?

    Since we have an open air topping bar unfortunately we ask that you not bring your fur babies inside. However their wait outside will be a bit more comfortable with our free pup cups!

    You get an absurd amount of ice cream for the price and honestly I think it's the best ice cream in…read moretown. I usually get the coffee ice cream like anywhere I go. Last time I went, my friend got the toasted coconut and now I definitely need to try that next. Their donuts are amazing too. Fresh cake donuts that completely changed my opinion on cake donuts. I never really cared for them before trying these, and now I think they're some of the best donuts I've had anywhere. Super quick service, really friendly staff, and a classic Ann Arbor spot that deserves its reputation.

    Washtenaw dairy has always been one of the best ice cream places in the area (and I would even…read moremaybe say the state). They customer service is always incredibly friendly, the helping are always generous, and the prices are always reasonable. I like the classic vibe of the place that lends well to any generation of people wanting to stop by. It's always fun to see the students, the families with their pets, and the groups of friends that come by when I go. The only downsides are the parking and the lines but I have never had too much trouble trying to find a place to park and I know the people working go as fast as they can. I would definitely recommend anyone try this place out if they are visiting the area!

I would give it 5 stars but a few of the things the toddlers play on need to be tossed and first thing in the morning appeared grubby (probably just because they're old).

I would say it's perfect for crawling babies-about 9 years old. There is a baby/toddler only area. The lounge area is set up in a way where it overlooks the play area... with comfy chairs and couches. They have a room you can reserve for birthday parties. They have a cafe which sells coffee, snacks, and kids lunch items like grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, and mac and cheese. I did try a grilled cheese here and was very disappointed! But I had low expectations and it was still something I could eat. It was fairly priced at $3. My friend ordered mac and cheese for her kiddo and it looked creamy and delicious so I will try that next time. The cost for entry is $10 a kid, and it may be kids under a year are free but don't hold me to that. I was able to go in free with my infant and was able to spend some time conversating with a friend who has two toddlers. So it's a great set up where as long as your children behave properly, you can actually have conversations with other adults! If they stayed open until 7 or 8 and had a maximum height limit it would be perfect!
