The best small-batch ice cream in the world! Mint choc chip, raspberry choc chip--in fact, ALL the Graeter's chip ice creams. And don't get me started on their sorbet's! The only downside is the sugar content, which doesn't benefit my Type 2 so much. I do my best to keep servings below the recommended... and walking to and from the shop is my incentive. Thanks for being my neighborhood ice cream shop read more

After some amazing indian food with our friends everyone was ready for something sweet. Our friends recommended Graeter's. It was only a 15 minute walk, in beautiful weather so off we went. Service is great, employees are friendly, and have the utmost confidence in their team (as they should!) which made for great basketball conversation. They have so many flavors to choose from! Everyone was able to find something tasty. Their mango and raspberry sorbet was phenomenal! I went with fresh strawberry, also very tasty. For 7 of us it was less than 35$. Great portions, fresh, tasty, cheap and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Having this for the first time in Kentucky, then Ohio, of course we had to have it here in Indiana. Just amazing ice cream and I have never been disappointed in any of their locations. read more

Graeter's is legendary for a reason. The ice cream is incredibly creamy, and those signature huge chocolate chunks are unmatched. The staff is always sweet and the service is fast. A must-visit every single time! read more

The Ice Cream was the perfect mixture of sweet creamy and rich, must try the Lemon and Raspberry Chip flavors. The service was excellent, they were nice and swift. The ambiance was great too. read more

In a quaint little town. The sizes are very generous and the ice cream is phenomenal. Some of the best I have ever had. It was so rich and creamy. Their whipped cream is homemade and scooped onto your ice cream. Doesn't come out of a can. It was so good we went 2 days in a row. Highly recommend. read more

Incredible selection fit for all tastes. Great location and seating too. The shakes were great.

One of the best ice cream shops in town. Friendly employees, awesome ice cream, lots of flavors to choose from. Try their seasonal specials - they used to have key lime pie, lemon cake, and others - all fantastic. They also have a perks program via the mobile app. 10/10 read more

Midnight Snack is our new favorite ice cream ever. We visited from Arizona and will DEFINITELY be back for another scoop before we head back home. Service was great. Crowded for a Thursday afternoon, a testament to the good ice cream!! read more

My go to and the best ice cream shop. I've been to multiple locations they're all great. Sweet staff.

I love the location. I love the atmosphere. I love the service. It is a fun place to go and I know I will be there again. I just don't love-love the ice cream. I don't like that all the flavors have tiny chips of chocolate in them. And, I feel like those chips are chewy. And, I don't feel like the ice cream is a creamy as other options. Still, I think I am an anomaly of a person. Everyone I talk to about Graeter's has great things to say about it. So with all that said, I'm torn on the three stars, but to me, it's "OK" read more

I'm done with this place. Ice cream is phenomenal, but they either stiff you or are rude. My partner and I got a single scoop. They gave him a proper serving. I'm the meantime, I got something I finished in 3 minutes. This isn't the first time either. Go elsewhere. This place is a joke. read more

Graeter's Ice Cream - This is what I paid $6 for. I finished it in 5 licks. - Desserts Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Delicious ice cream and great service. The place was clean and had enough seating. I would highly recommend.

This location refuses to make milkshakes as early as a 90 minutes before close. Just to go to coldstone up the road.

It's a brick and mortar Graeters ice cream shop. They have all the standard pints etc. Bit don't limit yourself to a pint or a scoop - treat yourself to an ice cream pie or cake. Consistently good. The shop itself is great but sometimes a block is to far to walk. Don't fret. They deliver as well. So you can even treat yourself to their goods when you are to lazy to put clothes on. read more

This shop is a family owned joint that has roots in the business going back as far as 1870. It has street parking and a very small private lot. They have a very clean decent sized dining area and some outdoor patio seating out front. In addition to their hand scooped ice cream, they have pints of ice cream and ice cream cakes. They have an ice cream freezer full of assorted flavors, but it is behind the counter and you cannot see the ice cream like at other ice cream parlors. They do however offer samples. They have different types of cones that you can get you ice cream in like waffle cones, with or without, sprinkles. You can also get your selected ice cream in a cup or between two cookies. They have banana splits, sundaes and brownie sundaes and a fun kids sundae as well. I recommend checking the menu online before going there. It is easier to read. I got a scoop in a cup for both of my littles and I got a brownie sundae with Brown Butter Bourbon Pecan. It was delicious. My ice cream and whipped cream was very fresh. My brownie could have been a bit better though. My littles ate all of their ice cream before we made it home and was begging for more. The staff there was very friendly and helpful. kudos to them. This is a nice ice cream joint that is open year round. They have good ice cream and a wonderful atmosphere. I recommend checking this place out and trying one of their frozen treats. read more

All I have to say is the soft chocolate chunks in this ice cream has me hooked!!! I usually never get candy embedded ice cream because the freezing candy is too hard in my teeth! I don't know what Graeters does but that is not the case! The chocolate is soft, like biting into fudge without the fudge taste (I don't like fudge ). Do yourself a favor and get any flavor with the word "chip" in it so you can see! read more

Graeter's has some of the best ice cream around. The classic black raspberry is my normal order, but I branched out and tried the peanut butter chip and it was also incredible! You really can't go wrong here. Service is quick and the employees are always very friendly and eager to hand out samples. read more

There is not a lot of seating but there is seating outside and they have a rewards program. Love this place, we will definitely be back. read more

We had some delicious ice cream at Graeter's! One of the girls serving us was so kind. She let us try a few flavors and gave us recommendations and what is good. My friend went with the blackberry chip and I got a chip wheelie. Both were amazing! The cookies on the chip wheelie were excellent (just as the staff member told me). It was soft and went perfect with the chocolate chip ice cream in the middle. We will definitely be back. read more

Best ice cream in Indy! Excellent service also! Me and my kids loved all of the flavors and the shop was nice and clean as well!

Phenomenal ice cream. Great location. Prompt and awesome service. I ordered the 1870 Tower, or maybe it's the 1890 Tower, and it was so good! Their signature ice cream is black raspberry chip which is then scooped onto a chocolate Bundt cake. Topped with hot fudge, walnuts, whipped cream, and a cherry. Really really good!! I've tried a few of their flavors now and they are good. Forgot to take a picture, I was hungry. read more

We've been here so many times I wouldn't be able to count! But each ice cream flavor we try is better than the last. We often fall back on two classics- black raspberry chip or black cherry chip. No one can compare with Graeter's chocolate chunks. We recently branched out and ordered other items- banana split and 1870 tower. We loved both. We've had shakes too and never leave without a cup of doggie ice cream to take home. If you're near a Graeter's definitely stop in, this is an ice cream you won't regret! The servers are so friendly and really help you make decisions (I always have a hard time! Lol). Several indoor tables, as well as outdoor tables and benches. We love this little shop. read more

I had never been to this location before and I'm so glad I stopped in! My youngest wanted to grab some ice cream while we waited for her older sister to finish practice and this place was awesome! We ended up getting there at a GREAT time because we had ZERO wait and there were plenty of tables. We went on a Monday around 5 pm, I even got a parking spot! They probably had about 20 flavors to choose from but my daughter saw and immediately wanted the major league sundae! I must say the staff was super patient too because my 4 year old probably changed her mind about 10 times before finally settling on a base flavor. She had the strawberry and I definitely had a bite. There were actually strawberries in the ice cream which was nice and it was nice and smooth and creamy. If you're in the area and want to grab a quick bite of ice cream........stop in here! read more

Graeter's Ice Cream - Major League Sundae - Desserts Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Best ice cream in town! So many agree! This location is consistently busy. The menu includes ice cream, sundaes, frozen drinks, milkshakes, and malts. They are famous for their chip flavors. These aren't your average chocolate chips! They are like mini chocolate bars that will just melt in your mouth. Black raspberry chip is their most popular and for good reason! I also like: buckeye blitz chocolate chip, cookie dough chocolate chip, peanut butter chocolate chip, and salted caramel chocolate chip. Don't forget about their traditional flavors! Caramel macchiato is a new favorite. They do seasonal flavors each month which are fun to try! Current flavor is strawberry chip. Definitely go for a double scoop. You'll be glad you did! We picked up a butter pecan ice cream pie for my birthday and it was delicious. It is definitely a celebration item ($36) but totally worth it! read more

No vegan icecream in this day and age with so many options and 25 percent of the population lactose intolerant. No one wants sorbet instead.

I always have to get Graeter's when I visit Ohio. However, I was not aware of this location in Broad Ripple! Came here after dinner for a sweet treat and it was delish. Small parking lot out front but spacious enough to fit a few cars. I also like the fact that they have outdoor seating as well! As I walked inside, I was quickly greeted and serviced. I had to get my usual, raspberry chocolate chip. Decadent and absolutely mouth watering. Great service and ambiance, I will definitely be back! read more

Great place in the Butler-Tarkington 56th & Illinois Street area of Meridian Kessler and just off the Butler University campus. Based in Cincinnati, the local franchise is as good as the Hyde Parke original. The ice cream is really high quality with lots of cream so smooth & tasty. The flavors always have the dependables, but also tend to feature seasonals, too! The Staff, while always friendly and efficient, tend to feature kids from the neighborhood or from Campus. And the setting is very local, with friends & neighbors wandering in from having just swum at the Riviera, or on the way back from some sporting event or night out. A fun place to be! read more

We love Graeter's. Too bad there isn't one close to us. The chocolate is the best. My husband enjoys the black raspberry. The cones are just average but then the star is supposed to be the ice cream. read more

Stopped in to try a scoop of ice cream. There were several options, but I ultimately decided on S'mores. It was really good...so good I forgot to snap a pic before eating. The portion of the scoop was plentiful as well. The s'mores ice cream had plenty of marshmallows and chocolate bits. The store was clean and the staff was friendly. They offer a rewards program too. I plan to return to try more treats. read more

Hands down the best tasting ice cream at an ice cream shop in Indy. My favorite flavors are the black cherry and black raspberry chocolate chip. Since covid started they only had outdoor seating. Now that the weather is cold I wonder if they will open indoor seats back up. Fear not if you don't want to dine in - there are pints to go in plenty of flavors. My only complaint is that every time I order a scoop from the chocolate chip flavors there are huge and I mean HUGE chunks of chocolate. They are so big I have to take them out and let them melt some before cutting into them. This also robs me of quite a bit of the actual ice cream. Graeter's, please fix this! read more

I haven't been in so long they changed from one side of the street to the other. Still great ice cream. I had the mint chip. Not too minty and still monstrous chunks of chocolate. My favorite and my favorite ice cream in the Midwest. read more

I wish we lived closer to Graeter's so we could visit more often. We love Graeter's ice cream plus I could devour a tub of their whipped cream. Love they note the featured flavors of Low Glycemic ice cream. You can dine indoors or enjoy the 2 patio tables plus a bench outdoors. We took advantage of the unusual nice day and grabbed an outdoor table. Frozen flavors are available in the case for carry-out. The have a large selection of ice cream, sundaes and beverages. Indulge in a regular or Waffle cone dipped in chocolate filled with your favorite ice cream. I usually go for the seasonal flavors but I can never go wrong with salted caramel. My husband loves the freshiest of the seasonal peach ice cream. He's always disappointed when it's not there but doesn't take long to find another flavor to try. This visit my husband had a scoop of the strawberry and dark chocolate chip in a cup. I had the scrumptious Brownie Sundae with salted caramel. The hot fudge was so chocolaty, the Brownie was the perfect size with the delicious salted caramel ice cream and topped off with whipped cream and a cherry. One of my all-time favorites. Stop in if you're in the area or just want to make a trip for excellent ice cream. read more

I had a good experience at Graeter's! The staff is friendly and efficient. The store itself is clean with plenty of seating. It was raining when I was there, but it looks like they also have great outdoor seating options as well. I think this could be a great hangout place or even a study spot. The ice cream itself is good, and I was impressed by the variety of flavors and options. I find that Grater's isn't my favorite ice cream--the texture can oftentimes leave much to be desired. However, I had the raspberry sorbet and it was delicious. My only other complaint would be the parking. The lot is a little small, but it is no issue if you park at the CVS behind the store. read more

I went to this place for dessert. I go here a lot for ice cream and I am never disappointed. There are very nice and hard working workers. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating which is good because it is usually crowded. The ice cream is amazing and there are many flavors. If it has toppings in the ice cream then there are many and big ones. For example if there is chocolate chunks then they are usually big. There are some walking and bike trails nearby so it is a good place to get some ice cream. Overall recommended. read more

I stopped in on the last day of February hoping to find their Cherry Chocolate Chip as it was a limited time flavor of the month. I stopped over at the Fisher's store a few days earlier and they had been out. I was super excited to have one of their staff help me find it as they only had 3 pints left in the store. Thanks for letting me run it right before closing. I really appreciate all of your help!!!! read more

I've had Graeter's before mostly just by purchasing a pint to-go. Last night, I decided to partake in a fresh scoop of ice cream. It was a beautiful night to stop here and get some. They have a retro ice cream parlor style along with plenty of friendly staff to assist. There is some indoor seating, however it does get a bit crowded. Most people take their ice cream to-go or eat outside when the weather is nice. I ordered one scoop of Black Cherry Chip in a waffle cone. The ice cream was absolutely delicious and filling for its size. If your in the So-bro area, its a must! read more

Graeter's Ice Cream is a great ice cream shop to go to for any occasion or any season. Graeter's is in the perfect location to serve Butler University's and is only 1.5 miles away. They have a large selection of ice cream that allows for anyone and everyone to find a flavor or two that they love. The shop has other things to offer as well. Graeter's has cards, candy, clothing, and even ice cream pints and cakes to take home immediately. When I eat ice cream I tend to get a little thirsty, and one thing that I really appreciate about Graeter's is that they have a free water fountain inside the shop. However, the parking lot is very small and you will most likely have to park a little down the street. But don't let that deter you from visiting because this shop has cones, cups, milkshakes, malts and more that will have you coming back until you've tried them all. read more
