I have been to other Graeter's but it was the first time I went to the one at Polaris. I went there to do my birthday Sundae. I was very happy about the Buckeye Blitz as my Sundae. The staff at Graeter's was very nice and loved the layout unlike other Graeter's that I have been too. I'll be going back to the Polaris location very soon. read more

Graeter's Ice Cream - Birthday Sunday with Buckeye Blitz ice cream - Desserts Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I had no idea that there was Graeter's near Polaris, not did I realize they had so many flavors now. I also did not know that this location had a drive thru....But they DO! To all of that. I was looking for a good shake. I drove towards Chik Fil A as my kids like their shakes. Well, right next door was Graeters! No brainer to get a shake from Gaeters vs well, really anywhere. They had lemon meringue ice cream. Uh, YUM! I had them make a shake with it. Let me tell you... chef's kiss. Delicious. Oh I for-see this being a big problem for my scale, jeans, etc. Lol. I will be buying lots of these. Lol. Mmmmmmmm. read more

Graeter's Ice Cream - Desserts Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Brought the family here for the first time over the weekend. There was nobody in line, so we got served right away, and the employees were very nice. The kids got scoops, the wife got a shake, and I got a sunday. With all the reviews and history, I think I over hyped this place. The ice cream was average, not outstanding as I was expecting. Even though we will be back to try more flavors. read more

My husband and I have been fans of Graeter's Ice Cream for years. It is good. It is now so ridiculously expensive that we won't be back. My husband got a one dip dish, $6. You can buy an entire pint for $6.95. I got a one dip sundae, $7.50. Although the website lists a two dip turtle sundae at $7.50, I was charged $7.50 for a one dip chocolate sundae. We feel very sorry for families buying ice cream there. Graeters makes Culver's look like a delicious bargain! read more

I have been to several other locations of Graeter's, but it was the first time coming to this Polaris shop, which is located across the street from Kroger and next to Chick-Fil-A. The staff here is friendly and patient. We came in after 10pm, because my friends came in from out of town in the evening. The shop closes at 11pm; however, we were not rushed and left right before closing. This ice cream shop is a staple in the Columbus area and is very nostalgic for my friends and I as we used to frequent it in our childhood through adolescence after every large party from the 90's onward. We carry the tradition now by still meeting for their ice cream when we all reunite. The scoops are very big and honestly one scoop is filling after a meal. I usually get the Buckeye Blitz flavor here. It is the only chocolate flavored ice cream I eat. The cookie dough is another favorite. I have purchased the cookie dough ice cream cake multiple times before and it is very good and a summer time hit. read more

Slow night. Post carfagna's ice cream. My son and I dropped in for a couple scoops of ice cream. I mean, it was slow, only a couple people on staff, and she was quick to serve and super friendly. Not much more you could expect! They are full service - we grabbed a quart of ice cream Togo for the brother that stayed behind. It's a consistent experience across their locations, so what can be said beyond that? Good service and ice cream :) read more

I got the coconut chip and it was ON POINT. Creamy, not too sweet, with a some chocolate chunks. Oh my gosh- it was soooooo good. I will definitely be back! read more

I was there buying two pints of ice cream. I went to check out and no one seems to notice me. I was there for more than a minute and I was the only person in line while several people were scooping ice cream. I think the manager was there. Poor Service. It is the management problem. I left the store without buying. I hope the corporate people see this comment. I always love Graeters. read more

Service is always great! Wide variety of flavors. Better than most places in Columbus. Other places are add-in to vanilla or chocolate, I am not a fan. Place is always clean and welcoming. read more

Holy moly - the birthday cake flavored ice cream had cake chunks and was out of this world! Should have got two scoops (this diet isn't going as I planned .. haha). Visiting from out of state and this was a great ice cream place. Great work OHIO. read more

I'm so excited about the summer Bonus flavors! Graeters Summer bonus flavor # 2. Pralines & Cream - candied pecans in a sweet vanilla ice cream. It's like a little taste of New Orleans wrapped up in a delicious ice cream. I can't wait to find out what the next bonus flavor is! This is a premium ice cream that does cost a bit more then other places in town, however it's tasty and I find myself coming back often. @ohiofoodlover read more

I always love coming to Graeter's, as everybody knows is a staple in Columbus!! I love it, but just not worth the price anymore! Your best bang for your buck is honestly getting the "To Go" ice cream products! I got the 1870 tower with black raspberry chip ice cream, chocolate fudge (which I substituted chocolate syrup for), walnuts, whip cream and a cherry!! It was amazing, but $8.50, I just did not think it was worth that. I never thought it would be that expensive! I would rather go to UDF, Dairy Queen or Whit's for much cheaper!! The staff was not friendly with me either, I continued feeling like I was bothering them. It was nice inside, but extremely old, they have some updating to do! read more

Super clean, friendly staff, and great ice cream! Would absolutely go back and highly recommend.

Graeter's makes some of the best ice cream ever! You can't go wrong with their vanilla bean and Dutch milk chocolate. They do the classic flavors better than most. Other flavors I love are their seasonal flavors Boldly Bearcat and Mint Cookie (aka mint Oreo). My only complaint is that the seasonal flavors aren't around long enough!!! The staff at this location are always so friendly and helpful. The parking lot can be awkward to navigate because they are right next to a Chick-Fil-A, and they both get very busy. read more

Nice location with a drive thru in Polaris! Service was kind, and professional. Our order was accurate and came out in a timely manner. Loved the salted caramel chocolate chip in a cup. So rich, creamy, and flavorful. Nothing like their massive chocolate chunks either. Reasonably priced. read more

They have a great location with seemingly easy parking. I've been both through the drive thru as well as inside. The staff are great, the accuracy and speed of service are wonderful. I've always been greeted and welcomed. The staff are very sensitive if you have a peanut allergy and change gloves and use a different scoop. The ice creams are good with a huge variety read more

We went to Graeter's on ice cream day when they celebrated their anniversary with $1.47 ice creams. We got the famous black raspberry chip, black cherry chip, and buckeye chip. All three flavors were super rich and tasty! The store was busy because of the promotion, but we found a seat easily. Delicious! read more

This Graeter's has a drive through! I have never seen that before . And for a Monday night it was actually pretty steady even though it was cold out. Staff was friendly and attentive . Very clean inside. Quick order. They even have a jelly belly machine where you can create your own bag. They had bags of the sour ones and I couldn't resist. Love Graeter's I've been a long time customer since elementary school! The drive through will be essential in the summer !! read more

Graeter's Ice Cream - Double chocolate scoop with marshmallow and sprinkles - Desserts Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Graeter's is pure love! Recommend their famous black raspberry ice cream (with hot fudge topping), but other flavors like Buckeye chocolate chip and chocolate brownie are delightful too. Service is always fantastic! This shop has been a staple of my time in Columbus read more

O M G!! We saw the sign when we ran into Krogers last night and decided to stop. We have never heard of Graeter's Ice Cream or French Pot Ice Cream. We were blown away with the flavor of the ice cream! It's a totally different product that regular ice cream. So much better! The customer service is was amazing! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming! I will be a repeat customer for sure!! Sorry no pictures this time, we ate it too fast! read more

The best customer service I have ever experienced! Oh and Ice cream is amazing too! It's clean with Covid protections in place. read more

I stopped in kind of late on a Friday night with my little one. While waiting in line she mentioned how she wanted the silly face kids sundae and I told her since it was late it was better if we just shared an order of ice cream....a double scoop! The lady behind the counter must have heard us because she decorated my little one's scoop with a silly face. Totally above and beyond what I expected and it was so sweet to see how happy it made my daughter. Everyone knows Graeters is the best traditional ice cream in Columbus, but now I know they also provide the best customer service. Thank you!! read more

Second time having graeters and and while it was okay it wasn't the best ice cream ever. Most recently I tried the bourbon and pecan with chocolate chips and the bourbon flavor was so over powering I couldn't even finish it. I tried a few other flavors from family members at the table and they were better. The chocolate and cherries tasted like eating the queen Anne cherries they sell during the holidays. The peach was a bit strong, but the coffee was pretty good, not too strong. The last time I went I got peppermint with chocolate chips and it had a watered down taste to the flavor. I'm not sure if its just because I'm from Texas and we're used to blue bell, but this place just wasn't for me. read more

Kelsey was the nicest employee. She was extremely helpful and quick to greet us and make us feel welcome. She was kind and answered all our questions. Will be coming back!! read more

Over $4.50 for one scoop of a traditional flavor... and it was a really pitiful scoop. I'll go back to UDF instead. read more

Oooh how I love Graeter's Ice Cream. I used to go here at least 3 times a week and had to cut back. I always order two banana split, one for now and one for later. The drive-thru line is long but it goes by fast so don't get discouraged when you see the line wrapped two times around the building. Graeter's has a membership card so you can earn point towards a free ice cream. I'll be coming here in the winter time as well once Summer/Fall have passed. read more

Took a chance on a new ice-cream place and we will definitely be returning! So many fun and delicious flavors to choose from with a warm and friendly atmosphere. read more

Expensive but good. Join the rewards program for points toward purchase. Clean and has a patio to eat your ice cream

I have never been here before. I ordered the Morning Sunrise smoothie. It was very tasty. The ingredients to it are: strawberries. Mango. Bannana. And orange juice. Topped off with homemade whipped cream. Delicious. You have to try this place. I will be back next time I'm in Columbus Ohio. Five stars and thumbs up to this place. read more

You would have better luck sticking your straw in a tub of ice cream than getting a milk shake from this place.

First time trying Graeters tonight while in town for the Arnold and WOW, talk about some real ice cream. I'll be sad going back to the West coast after vacation. Every staff member and the manager was extremely friendly, helpful and were genuinely excited to be there!! They were awesome in letting us try samples and come to a decision which is pretty difficult when every flavor is delicious!! Tonight, I went with S'mores, Mint and Cheese and they were so good!! I'll definitely be looking for more Graeter's when on the East Coast!! Great ice cream and great employees! read more
