I loved going to the local ice cream or frozen custard stand with my family when I was a kid... and…read moreVampire Penguin is a reminder of it. There's outdoor seating (umbrella tables) and indoor as well. A very small strip mall near Lowe's and Target. Staff is friendly and helpful-- though not chatty. VP caters to families, even though the prices are a bit higher than at a crushed ice stand. (Huge difference is that this is shaved SNOW-- and it is way better tasting than the crushed ice). These are more like a gourmet dessert that have "eye appeal" and taste great. (Get small size for your kids they are pretty filling). So to summarize, it's fun because it's not ordinary and the staff takes pride in their creations. Make your own if you're adventurous, which I plan to do next time. Been three times now. I like it a great deal and don't feel weighed down after eating it. Also Fuji is walking distance, if you want to make an evening of it with dinner/dessert. (Oh... don't forget to use the tip jar for the staff)

It was also amazing. If you're looking for something to feed your sweet tooth come here for sure.

Bruster's is a happy little ice cream parlor tucked away across from the mall down on Martin Luther…read moreKing, Jr. Blvd. in Anderson. Its location is rather obscure, so if you don't know where it is you're not likely to run across it. The folks who work there have always been friendly, helpful and upbeat. They have over twenty flavors of premium ice cream to choose from. They also have yogurts, no sugar added/fat-free ice cream, sherbets, Italian ice and sorbets. You can also get shakes and sundaes. As of October 10, 2016, the following prices were in effect: For a cake cone, cup or sugar cone: Sm $3.19 Reg $4.12 Lg $5.05 For a waffle cone: Sm $3.90 Reg $4.72 Lg $5.65 So you can see, they are not cheap, but I can tell you that they are good. And another thing...look for coupons. They had valuable coupons out the entire summer of 2016. Good ones, like BOGO and dollars off, well worth finding. Hours of operation Su 11am - 10pm Mo 11am - 10pm Tu 11am - 10pm We 11am - 10pm Th 11am - 10pm Fr 11am - 11pm Sa 11am - 11pm Bruster's is a colorful, clean, bright spot on an otherwise desolate road in Anderson. They serve delicious treats that make people happy, and for that, they should be supported. I have been multiple times, and I will definitely be back!

The vanilla ice cream was good, and the chocolate ice cream was decent. But, we ended up throwing about a third of it away, and felt it was mostly a waste of money. We went through the drive-through. There were at least two young men inside, and they got the order to us quickly.

I've already stopped by here a couple times, so I think it's about time for a review…read more Most of the process is done without any human interaction, unless you get the rare occasion that somebody is available, you're going to be putting your order into a tablet. Everything is super clean and almost empty up front. But the colors are really nice and the process is pretty simple. They have about six available flavors any given day, and they frequently rotate. Just recently they started the mini cookies, which is great because I buy these for my staff and sometimes they don't want a giant cookie. So having a mini cookie gives them the option of having a taste of something without having to commit to the whole thing. Usually delicious, these cookies make an impression and are even great for gifts. Gifts. They have gift wrapping available as well. I rated four stars due to the lack of interaction with the staff, and sometimes if you get them on a bad day they're kind of standoffish. But thankfully, most of your interaction is digital and they just hand you your order. Usually they'll give you a smile. I would definitely recommend just ordering ahead and picking up so you can enjoy these cookies!

Again... bland. But, the milkshakes, homemade ice cream, strawberry shortcake, sundaes, and hot fudge cakes are The Best! They're always a special treat this restaurant is famous for! Highly recommend, especially on a warm day here in the south!
