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!
Ken M.

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.

Double scoop waffle cone with peanut butter brownie bits ice cream
Christine E.

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!

They were all delicious if you love the old fashioned kind of donuts this is definitely the place to get them! Maple and Chocolate covered were my favorites. They were coconut, white icing, sprinkles, plain, cinnamon, maple peanut, maple, and chocolate. They were a huge hit with everyone! It was my first time trying them out! The only thing that was hard was trying to find a parking spot. They had all of the donuts ready to go when I got there. It smelled soooooo good inside. The person behind the register even helped me carry them all and put them in my SUV for me. Thank you for your great customer service! We will order again from you!

Sometimes nothing but a DQ Blizzard will help you beat the heat in the summertime…read more I found myself in exactly that situation recently after a visit to Pinckney and Silver Lake. As I wound through Dexter on my way back home, I thought, "Wouldn't ice cream, and especially an Oreo Cookie blizzard, be nice right now?" I thought there was a quaint little DQ stand in downtown Dexter, and after a quick search on Yelp, I realized that I was right. Despite this being a chain restaurant, this tiny DQ stand fits right in to the charming ambiance of downtown Dexter. With a small parking lot, it's easy to pop over and order a Blizzard, which will be ready in a flash. While several picnic tables surround the small restaurant, I wanted to sit under the trees and enjoy my snack. I grabbed my mini size Blizzard (perfect size for a little snack, by the way) and headed across the street to Monument Park to savor it under the canopy of the trees. It was such a hot day that I was in a race with the heat to eat as much as I could before it melted! The next time you find yourself in Dexter during a hot summer's day, do yourself a favor and swing on by for a Blizzard. Like me, you may find that this is one of your new favorite stops!

That's all I needed was to find more amazing ice cream in Michigan that I can't take home with me. I'm also never in Ann Arbor so that doesn't help I tried fresh basil ice cream. It was drizzled with lemon olive oil. The most amazing and unique flavors. They have butterfly moon, not blue moon. While blue moon tastes like fruity pebbles, butterfly moon tastes exactly like froot loops and is even the color the milk turns when you have a bowl. Service was friendly and didn't mind us trying lots of samples. How can you not when they're all so amazing and unique !!

Lucky to even get my brother and me a table to sit at then eat our $9ish 2 scoops with the chocolate brownie fudge & tiramisu ice cream flavors. Tasted good, but not the best that we had. Idk why I feel like the staff was on the zaza because so many double takes and mishearings lolol Anyway, service could have been quicker with a more cohesive teamwork flow between staff because they would just yell out to come up if you are next in line and customers could not hear if it was them that should move up, or someone else. Was unsure which staff members were even calling out . But, the line went quick enough to not get too bothered by it Anyway, small tables. Like, smaller than me. Not ideal. Since many people eating here. I have nothing else good left to say

Ann Arbor is severely lacking in kids indoor play places, so if you have small kids, this place is…read moreworth a drive out to. Very clean and organized kids play place. 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!

This is a really great place! The staff was friendly. They have great snacks for kids & adults…read more It could be brighter. 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).
