ABSOLUTE PERFECTION my favorite flavor is party cake the people who work there are always so sweet and and funny and the results are always great (if you ask for sprinkles you WILL get sprinkles it's so great) read more

Found this place while walking along the streets. We went in about 30 minutes before close, and definitely experienced the rush. I ordered a chocolate banana swirl cone, and the other girl I was with got her dessert at least 10 minutes before I did, and multiple people got their orders before me as well. I followed up to the counter and asked if they could check on my order, and one of the guys in the back who was flirting with some of his friends who were in the lobby, accidentally put my order receipt on the done needle, so they had to go and make it. They didn't even say sorry, it was actually kind of annoying. The ice cream was incredible though, it was just the customer service that was not great at all. read more

My kind of soft serve! Stuck to a traditional vanilla and chocolate with rainbow sprinkles and the whole family was happy.

Love a local ice cream shop! Visiting for the weekend and stopped by for dessert. They have so many options to choose from! I went simple with a chocolate vanilla swirl. It was so yummy! Parking in the lot can be bit tricky but street parking nearby as well. A few seats for waiting but no true seating inside. The inside is cute and charming. read more

Amazing ice cream!!! So many options and flavors and the service is really good. The lines can get long sometimes but it's so worth it. overall great vibe and ice cream. read more

Wow this place has some great soft serve! The consistency is thick but also airy and light at the same time. I got the black raspberry with sprinkles (4/5) and my sister got the black raspberry vanilla twist with cookie dough (5/5!!). The black raspberry flavor was sweet with a hint of tartness. It tasted like the fruit and was very good. However, after trying my sister's I prefer the black raspberry with the vanilla twist as it gave it more sweetness and the vanilla complements the tartness of the black raspberry very well. I also recommend to get the cookie dough topping for $1 extra as they gave a huge portion on top of the cone AND a second scoop in the middle of the cone. The cookie dough was delicious and filled with mini chocolate chips. The sprinkles topping is 77 cents but cookie dough all the way. I'd love to come back here to try their different flavors! read more

Gruto's is an absolutely adorable little soft serve shop with funny snarky signs, a long line and the sweetest lady running the counter. You can tell this place is a neighborhood staple with how busy it is, and WELL worth the wait. Ice cream was really good, there's a lot of creative menu choices and customizations. Super friendly service. read more

They've done a great job revitalizing the small town of historic Leesburg. Great addition as finding soft serve ice cream in the area is difficult. Friendly staff and a ton of options. The banana/chocolate twist was great! As others have mentioned...reading all the signs makes the wait go faster. read more

Omgosh!! If you are just tired of basic ice-cream and need your sugar fix, well look no further GRUTO's Is here. I have been to this location several times, but what is impressive that they have introduce some fall flavors, such as pumpkin pie and caramel. Service is always amazing, they can give you a taste of the different soft serve before you commit to the a flavor of your liking; the portions are good! Please don't ever change your recipe and service!! read more

This is a classic spot! Very good soft serve and unique ice cream combos/sundaes. If you have kids, get a small - the portions are pretty huge! And for a large/medium can be upwards of $7 or $8. Try "The Elvis" for a little surprise! The man working the counter last night was super nice and made the experience fast and easy. We also ate right outside, lots of tables! read more

Pretty long line, but it went fast. Service was quick and efficient and friendly. I got the chocolate waffle mixed with a little bit of raspberry soft serve. It was delicious. Tried chocolate/peanut butter twist. It tasted just all the peanut butter, no chocolate taste at all. I would go here over Bruster's any day. read more

We went to Gruto's for the first time on a very, very cold day in December, so didn't have to deal with a line! My husband and I both had the raspberry/vanilla twist, and the ice cream was so smooth and creamy! The young girl working there was so friendly and filled us in on the history of the store as we ate. Will definitely be back! read more

The line was pretty long, and there was only one person working.He was warning his tips, though! Ice cream very good. The waffle cone was fresh and crunchy. read more

I'm a huge soft serve fan and have been on the hunt for a local ice cream shop with good soft serve. Gruto's is in downtown Leesburg and has raspberry, vanilla, raspberry vanilla twist, chocolate, banana, chocolate banana twist, and a variety of other treats. My husband and I split a raspberry cyclone, which is like a DQ Blizzard, with brownie and raspberry soft serve. The brownie bites were big and moist and had chocolate chips in them! Portion size was huge. I can't wait to bring my kids here! read more

If you like soft serve, this is your place. Many flavor choices and various serving types (cone, cup, etc.). Limited space indoors leaves only a bench out front and three chairs on the side for seating. There is a park with shade and benches down the street near the bike trail. read more

This is one of my favorite places to stop when I am in Leesburg! The black raspberry flavor and bananas are the best! This is a super cute, cozy ice cream shop that has a family owned vibe. I love the décor they have on the walls and the new GRUTO's accent wall for photos. I would highly recommend! read more

Small soft serve shop with unique flavors and lots of combos. Server was friendly and explained everything, as it was our first time. Located in downtown Leesburg, there is parking behind the building but its limited (about 6 spots). Tried the vanilla raspberry swirl and it was awesome. Server recommended their banana chocolate swirl and said the banana ice cream is made in-house. Little pricey, $5-6 for a small cone. read more

Super cute store and delicious soft serve! Tried the banana chocolate swirl and was impressed that the banana flavor - it tasted natural and not like fake banana at all. It was crowded on a Friday night and the workers were pumping out cones to keep the line moving. I'll definitely be back - good soft serve is hard to find in NOVA! read more

What a cute place with such tasty soft serve. Excellente! Z best!! Love the ice cream treats for the dogs. "See you tomorrow"

Some of the best soft serve ice cream in downtown Leesburg is at Gruto's Soft Serve on King Street. They have delicious cones, sundaes, and milkshakes. When I went there was only one person behind the counter, but he was quick to get our orders down and out to us, he also told everyone goodbye by saying "see you tomorrow", I thought it was sweet. There isn't much seating here and there are no tables, so I'd recommend planning to take the ice cream to go. Check them out next time you're craving something sweet! read more

If you love soft serve Gruto's has some of the best in the area - and there are so many options! It's hard to decide what to have. Today I went with a s'mores sundae topped off with graham cracker crumbles but you can have pretty much any kind of candy, fruit or other topping combination that you can think of. There's no indoor dining, strictly take away. Social distancing is still in place and it's a small shop so there may be a brief wait outside. The wait is made up for by the swift and friendly servers who seem to enjoy their jobs serving up the sweet stuff for their customers. There's a small parking lot directly behind the shop accessed via a very narrow driveway at the left side of the building so keep a sharp eye out or you'll miss it. There is some street parking but it's a busy street. This is just a great homey ice cream place and worth a visit for a cool and tasty treat - highly recommend. read more

I am not normally a soft-serve ice cream person. I usually prefer gelato, but I decided to give this place a shot. What really won me over was the shear size of the cookie dough balls! There is nothing worse than ordering cookie dough and getting a few, sad, anemic dough balls. Gruto does not make this mistake. As you can see from the picture, they were huge. I was a very happy camper. There is not any seating indoors, but there are a good number of chairs outside to sit in. You're also in the heart of downtown Leesburg, so it's a good place to stroll with your ice cream. This place is definitely pricey, but that seems to have become the norm for ice cream these days. I appreciate that for the price, it was a good portion size. read more

I have been to Gruto's multiple times but tonight I was very disappointed. I went in with my family for ice cream today and ordered a cup of ice cream with marshmallow sauce, after, family and plenty of other customers had already gotten their ice cream before mine. I waited more than 15 minutes with no ice cream and was very frustrated with the service. I usually recommend this place, but not sure if I will anymore after this experience. read more

Randomly we found Gruto's Soft Serve because my kids want some ice cream. We stopped and we love the tiny shop full of people and kids. I was not expecting anything than the usual ice cream shops, but the lady who was alone was doing a great job. Very busy, but she had a great attitude. As soon as we ordered our ice creams we loved the flavors and specially for the amazing price! I highly recommend the banana flavor! Absolutely love the experience I had at Gruto's Soft Serve! read more

Showed up 10 minutes before they close. Line was out the door, got told by another customer her order was the last one that we're going to take before they were "closed". Overall I'm a Grutos fan and I feel like this is something that should be addressed. Very unprofessional. *Edit* drove past at 9:05 open sign was still lit up. read more

The ice cream is so good, and a good price. The kids working the counter could be a little more helpful and socialize less, but nice kids. We will definitely return if in this area and we recommend this place. read more

Great custard style soft serve swirled chocolate and Vanilla ice cream!!! This is a must to go place.

Super friendly staff and delicious ice cream! The banana ice cream tasted like real banana! Will be back!

Not much to it but the prices were fair and it tasted good. Daughter and I were pleased.

Great soft serve! My only wish is that they had more flavors to choose from. Furthermore, their ice cream is very sweet. If you prefer more tart ice cream or very nuanced flavors, I suggest you look elsewhere. Otherwise, it's a classic for hot Leesburg afternoons. read more
