Green acres Ice Cream is a chosen destination- whenever we come to Buffalo... the service is quick, the selection is Amazing and on a good day the ambiance is always delightful... a little hint - DO NOT sleep on the Strawberry cheesecake parfait or the Elvis ( banana and PB) milkshake...
One of my favorite places to get ice cream. The staff is always friendly. The prices are decent when compared to other places. They have many selections for hard ice cream, as well a various amount of Sundays and milkshakes to choose from.
You can't go wrong with ice cream. This place serves Perry's hard ice cream, the typical soft serve options of chocolate, vanilla and twist, a million different sundaes, blizzards, etc. They have every type of ice cream type item you could ever want. I would suggest avoiding the "specialty cones" which are made of different types of cookies... They are store bought and taste like cardboard. A waste of money for sure. Plenty of parking available, about 6 tables and other places to sit, plus you have some awesome mini golf next door!
The strawberry cheesecake parfait was delicious! The ice cream was so creamy. My fiancé got the cotton candy flurry and he loved it. The service was quick and easy. Highly recommend!
Met my sister and niece here for a quick snack. We ordered three different sundaes and we waited for them to come out. 2/3 came out and I waited 5 more minutes. When I inquired on mine, the girl laughed and said she forgot about me
Green Acres is the place to be, like the theme song from the hit TV show. Overall, if your looking for an icecream place to take pretty much anyone of any age highly recommend. They do require masks stay on when ordering, and waiting for your order. Make sure to have your credit card with you, as its contact less payment, no cash option available due to pandemic temporarily. They sure do deliver with artisan icecream flavors, 15 different kinds of slushies, smoothies milkshakes, cider slushies. As well as Perry's hard and soft icecream, custard, mcflurries, different cone dips and sundaes. I've tried their icecream before, always a win, recently had their slushies, blue rapberry lemonade, very flavorful. My mom ordered a Creamsicle milk shake and loved it. Only downside, wasn't a fan of the smoothies too creamy for my liking.
Came here to grab a sweet treat for myself and my dad. Got the apple pie parfait and a small thick chocolate shake. The apple pie parfait was unique, but only comes in one size and was a little large for this gal- split half with my mom. The small chocolate shake was a little pricey for the size, so it might be worth it to get a larger size. I do love that the ice cream shop is local versus a chain and there's a huge menu- literally something for everyone! The line moved at a quick speed as well, you could tell the employees were mindful of that.
With fast and friendly service I ordered my medium praline caramel Turtle ice cream , it was so big and delicious..They serve Perry's ice cream in many flavors .You can order parfaits ,sundaes,flurries , milkshakes, smoothies, iced cappuccino or just get a cone or a scoop in a dish.
Speedy service with a smile offering many varieties of perry's ice cream you can enjoy sundaes, cones, milkskakes,flurries,parfaits,smoothies and iced cappuccino .I ordered a medium dish of the praline caramel Turtle ice cream and it was so creamy , huge and delish.
Best Ice Cream in the Buffalo area, there is no debating that!!! This ice cream is thick, and rich and so full of flavor. The combinations that they have for their parfaits are the best, but better yet, they also allow you to mix and match for your own creations! This place also has mini golf and a driving range attached, so this make for a perfect spot for date night or for some family fun!! They also do special events such as movie nights for the kids and glow in the dark mini golf. This would be a great place for summer fun!

First time here. While staying in Buffalo area, we ate at a local restaurant then decided we wanted ice cream. Luckily, we were only two minutes away. I really really like ice cream so I was excited to try this place. The first thing I saw was the tractor and barn outside. I saw a cute wraparound porch and a small line. This is how I knew i was at the right place. Behind it is apparently a putt putt place. There were a lot of people out and about. Everyone in line was happy and helpful to each other. The staff did a great job moving the line nd getting orders out. I expected a little wait and was fine with it. WORTH THE WAIT!!! I chose the peanut butter splitter sundae. It was great. So delicious and I couldnt finish it...no idea how big it was. My child got a milkshake and loved it. I am so glad we came. read more

I've been going to the Village of Lancaster for a few things, and the route my GPS takes me was past Green Acres. I noticed it several times, and finally one day rounded up the fam' to make a trip to actually try Green Acres. This ice cream place has a permanent building, and a food truck that is usually open on the premises too. It is also hooked to a mini-golf and driving range (which I believe is a separate business, but you could make a day out of it all). The menu is large here, I'm sure I've yet to read it all. With social-distancing, it is difficult to get up to the menu board to study it for all that long, since it is right up at the register. But I've been pleased with all my picks so far. Their specialty sundaes are listed on their website, so you could peruse your options before going. https://www.greenacresicecream.com/menu One thing I do really like about Green Acres is they offer an in-between size, between baby and small--a kiddie! The kiddie is a good portion to feel sweetly satisfied, without going too big (I mean, come on, most "smalls" at most ice cream places these days are anything but), and without feeling jipped with a tiny baby cone. They have lighter options here too, like Dole Whip and a couple frozen yogurt and no sugar added hard scoop flavors. Another fave here is the wider variety of dip flavors for soft serve! I love getting soft serve in a dish with dip, so it pools and forms a crusty candy ring of crunch! I've tried the birthday cake dip, and BA-NA-NA! The banana was my fave so far, love banana-flavored sweets, which are harder to find anywhere. My husband has tried a couple different sundaes, and has been happy. The apple pie one was his fave so far. They have a large sundae menu with many combinations of toppings, I'm sure he'll continue to eat his way though that list. I docked a star as there is not a lot of seating here, and each time we've been it has been somewhat busy. But the parking lot is in a bit of a valley, and many folks will sit on the grass wall next to their car, which is where we usually end up. Cards are accepted here for payment and it is all contact'less, which I very much appreciate as opposed to handling cash. One other qualm, which is not the problem of the business, is we have had to ask people to back up. Green Acres has lines clearly marked to keep patrons six feet apart while waiting to get up to the order window. It is not rocket science: stand on your line, when the line moves up, move to your next line. Please remember your mask and adhere to these safety guidelines when you visit Green Acres, and you'll have a pleasant experience. read more

I wish I knew about this place sooner. We arrived around 8pm and the line was super long. First good sign :). You'd think you'd be waiting forever to order and get your desserts. Nope, not even close. They got through the line quickly and as fast as they took care of their customers more lined up. The cashier was super friendly. We got four parfaits to split. The size is massive. Two people could split one parfait and be satisfied. The choices for dessert are endless and their is definitely something for everyone. We tried the apple crumb cake parfait, pumpkin pie parfait, Andes parfait, and the double chocolate cookie dough parfait. Absolutely delicious. Not one complaint. Well definitely come back :) read more
We all know this place is a summer classic: tasty ice cream, decent prices, and pretty views of the golf course. But you need to get out here for fall ASAP. Their fall offerings are insane. Not only do they sell Mayer Brothers Apple Cider Slushies, they also do apple cider milkshakes, and.... wait for it... cider slushie floats! Complete with vanilla soft serve, the cider slushie float was the best fall treat I could've asked for. They also have some seasonal sundae options that are apple-centric. What could be better than warm apples and sweet vanilla ice cream? I don't know how I've never had anything off of their autumn menu before. I'll be sure to make another stop before the weather outside is frightful. read more

If my balls were an unusual Lime color, and you kicked them really hard, then I'd have a couple of Green Acres. If they were exceptionally cold, then the cream that they manufactured might in fact be ice cream. But enough with the pleasantries. On with the review. What to get: Vanilla Custard, Italian Ice. What else: Lake Effect Ice Creams, and the server's phone number. The servers are cuties though, for sure. Especially the one who served me. Speaking of cuties, thank you so much to Danielle for putting this amazing place on the map. Thanks to your review, I found this place the other day when looking for a new summer dessert spot to try, and I absolutely adored it! And according to Garland, if it was a cemetery, it'd be "Grim Acres." First of all, the extensiveness of the selections is fantastic. Like most places around here, they have a ton of Perry's ice cream choices, but they also have Lake Effect Ice Cream choices from Lockport, and Wow Cow flavours as well as Upstate Farm Flavours. So a whole smorgasbord of Ice Cream variety. Then they also have their own italian ices and custards. Secondly, and even more amazingly, are the prices. I got a vanilla custard for a dollar, a lake effect ice cream for barely more than a dollar, and a Mango flavoured Italian Ice for a dollar. So for under 3.50 total, I got 3 different treats. You will never find prices like this anywhere else. It's like going back to the 1970s, only the servers are less hairy. But thirdly, and best of all, is the quality of the products! I've had Lake Effect Ice Cream before and it didn't blow me away. Down here, especially given the fact that they charge less than LEIC in Lockport do, I liked it even more. The Vanilla Custard was as delicious as it was cheap. One of the best tasting custards in the 716. Creamy and perfect. And the Italian Ice was surprisingly fantastic. I'm a bit of an Italian Ice snob and this one pleased me immensely. It was Mango, and if it were a man that had just walked out on me, I'd be wondering "where did that mango." Long lines are not a surprise but they move pretty quickly with 2 windows serving. Sadly it's only open in the fleeting warm months, so get yourself down here and give it a try before the snow comes back (probably, like, next week). Is it the best ice cream in town? Well Antoinette's and Sweet Jenny's would take 1st and 2nd spot on that count, but for the all-round-best-cold-desserts, this place wins. And for "best value", Green Acres is the best place not just in the 716... but in the entire USA. Literally. And if I do get kicked between the legs by someone here, then I may rename it "Groin Acres." Followed my "Groan Acres." But thankfully the super cute girls I've been involved with in the last year or two have encouraged me to manscape, so these days, at least I have "Groomed Acres." read more

Green Acres is seriously one of the best places to try all different sorts of ice cream flavors. From classic Perry's to Lake Effect Ice Cream, and their milkshakes and flurries, it's really about as good as it gets! There are so many fantastic options here, sometimes it's hard to choose. But hey, at least you'll never go there thinking, "Man, I could go for some Pistachio," and leave disappointed, right? The building sits in front of the Broadway Driving Range & Miniature Golf Course, which can certainly make for a nice evening if you decide to spend it playing putt-putt and follow it up with an ice cream cone afterwards. Nothing like spending some time with family and friends outdoors! On Tuesdays they have free movie nights, which always seems to be a big hit with the kids. Thursdays is "Glow-in-the-dark" night, which includes free glow spoons with the purchase of any sundae, flurry, ect., a glow bracelet with the purchase of a cone, milkshake, ect., plus the golf course is specially lit for the occasion, along with the glow-in-the-dark golf balls. All in all Green Acres is a wonderful place to visit, and it's nice that there's usually more going on around the area than most other ice cream places. read more

Been here a few times before and even when there's a line, it moves fast. Lots of flavors of Perry's to choose from, as well as sundaes, parfaits, and more. There are a few picnic tables out front to sit down, or go next door and play a round of mini golf. Bring the kids as there's stuff for them to climb on too. In the summer they offer free outdoor family movies weekly, as well as glow in the dark night. In the fall they sell pumpkin and more fall themed treats (like cider). Great local business to support with long hours too. And their ice cream is absolutely delicious! read more

Ah green acres, the ice cream shop of my childhood, teens, and rest of my life. I love this place, and I've always enjoyed playing a lousy game of Putt putt with friends or family and finishing the evening with a nice big ice-cream dessert! Times haven't changed, except that the damn virus closed everything but not to fear! Green Acres is still serving and still making the same delicious ice-cream treats as always. I used to always come here for Lake Effect ice-cream which they stopped serving for some reason but I was sooo excited to see they now carry my all time favorite ice-cream Caramel Caribou! If you have seen any of my other reviews I'm kind of a caramel fiend and I got an amazing double scoop of caramel caribou with extra caramel on top XD because it's just that good. Prices here are always great and the staff are fantastic as well. For the time being they're accepting call in orders but the phone lines are SUPER busy so keep calling and trying. Sooner than later (hopefully) we can revive the wonderful evening traditions and get back to lousy Putt Putt and fun family evening events here! read more
Green Acres is the place to be. ice cream eatin' is the life for me. Anyone who knows me knows that I would take a bullet for an ice cream cone. It's my favourite thing to eat and my favourite kind of place to check out for the first time. I planned on seeing Deadpool 2 Friday night but thanks to some bad timing and some full showings that somehow turned into taking a drive to Depew to give Green Acres Ice Cream a try. I came here around 8PM and they had quite a line out front (which is usually a good sign). The place itself is a cool little wooden building that overlooks a mini golf course and some woods, or maybe just a couple of trees, I don't even know. The menu here is pretty massive offering all different kinds of ice cream from Perry's hard ice cream, soft serve ice cream, sundaes, ice treats, and even some dip n' dots style. My weakness came out and I preceded to order a 2 scoop of One Buffalo and Mint Chocolate Chip (forgot the name, mint-ting-a-ling? or something along those lines). The catch? I got it in a chocolate chip cookie cone, game changer. The ice cream itself was of typical Perry's delicious quality and the cone was hard enough to keep the ice cream from leaking out of the bottom and tasty enough to end up joining it once again in my stomach. This place is the perfect place for some summertime ice cream (not open yearly) and an even better place to eat until you throw up. read more
