Ice Cream Time - Tin roof sundae and a dirt pie sundae! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

What a cute little spot!! Feels very nostalgic and "old school." The service is great - I think I was served by a high schooler who was super polite and sweet. The menu was slightly overwhelming as there are a lot of options! The different items are all over the walls of the building. We all enjoyed our ice cream and would return! read more

Reliable walk up midwestern ice cream. I love the eclectic menu that never seems to change. There's definitely something for everyone here. Staff is always kind and welcoming and it never takes that long. I see them working hard. Seating area is always decorated with annual or perennial flowers, it adds a nice front porch feel. I've tried the soft serve, hand dip, and flurries. Parfaits are my best friend's personal favorite. Love coming here. read more

The portion sizes are enormous! We have great hand dipped ice cream and a humongous menu for you to choose from. They even have little treats for the puppies! They have plenty of seating around the building and a great staff. read more

I used to live about a mile and a half from this place. It's about five years ago. They're really great really have great ice cream. They do not sell any hot food like some other locations but they're really good. The service is five stars. The food is five stars and it's really interesting. Going there backwhen I was younger, but it's also interesting coming now when I'm older. read more

In 2006, I used to take my dog Marko to Mark-O's Ice Cream Time and called it "his" ice cream place. Many years later, we take any number of pups (and ourselves) to Ice Cream Time, blissfully ignoring various other ice cream stops along the way, from Ann Arbor to Ypsilanti. My favorite is a bit basic (but not to me!)- a twist cone, dipped in butterscotch shell, inside a chocolate and peanut dipped sugar cone. Absolutely perfect, no other place has anything like it. Wait times are never long, their service is efficient. And you have to love the interesting locals who are there waiting and willing to chit chat with you. We particularly like the milkshake lady, who gets hers every night and calls the owner "Skeeball!" Highly recommend. The Flurries are mixed correctly (not too overloaded like they are at -choke- King Kone in Garden City) with the add-ons like peanut butter cups and chocolate chip cookie dough. The mix is right on and the cone will last almost the entire time without ending up on your shirt. Very important! The dip is not too thick and has a satisfyingly light crunch to it, without cracks for the ice cream to melt through. He has stayed open until Thanksgiving in years past but of course, this is the owner's purview. Go here instead of whatever the heck that is which happened to Mickey's (RIP the real Saline Mickey's- at least the Westland one still exists), DQ and Frosty Joey. read more

Ice Cream Time - Vanilla/Chocolate twist, medium size, dipped in butterscotch, in a chocolate/peanut dipped sugar cone. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

I went here around 5pm and there was no line. The service was very quick and very friendly. The menu was a little difficult to read since we had around 5 different menus posted around the building. The ice cream overall was good. Lots of seating for you to eat your ice cream outside in the sun or the shade. Great little shop. read more

Ice Cream Time - Moose tracks and cookie dough ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

This business has been here for years and they are still the sweetest people. They have an extensive menu and I was so satisfied that I was able to get exactly what I wanted in my ice cream. I felt like a little kid in a nostalgic way when they gave me my ice cream and asked me how it looked. The only thing I didn't like was the outside was a bit chaotic since there was no social distancing and people gathering around the front. read more

Ice Cream Time - Oreo Explosion with bananas - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

This place is so nice and delivers exactly what I wanted, a hot brownie in cold ice cream on a warm summer day. Beyond underrated I'm not sure why people haven't come here more and why the lines aren't packed read more

Ice Cream Time - Hot fudge cake - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

Ice Cream Time - a cup of ice cream on a table - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

love it! good ice cream, fast service, good people, good vibes. its always ice cream time!

They have a large selection of ice creams, shakes, etc. they also offer a "pup cup" doggy dish of ice cream with a milkbone treat on top. The service is fast and the staff are friendly. read more

Tbh it's kinda sketchy but it's so so good. The line was a bit long but that's how you know it's good. There's so many options it's overwhelming. But it seemed like basically whatever you want you can get. I got a flurry with butterfinger and I think I ate it in like two seconds it was delicious. My pup also got a lil ice cream cone with a treat and he had MAJOR gas on the way home, but he was happy. read more

Cute little ice cream stand in Ypsi with a ton of options, flavor combinations, and more. Soft serve is king here IMO but they also have hand dipped flavors if you want something along those lines. With the soft serve option, you can choose from a myriad of sundaes, flurries, shakes, and "glaciers" (slushes mixed with soft serve--yum!). I went with the tin roof sundae (chocolate sauce, peanuts, and soft serve) and my husband went with a cherry shake. Both were delicious and the perfect treat on a warm day. The gentleman who helped us, who I assume is the owner, was a delight. So friendly and helpful. I watched him interact with other customers and he was just a joy to observe. Loved our experience here and can't wait for future visits! read more

Such a cute ice cream stand in Ypsilanti. We enjoy the ice cream and the friendliness of the staff. Love supporting this local business!

Fantastic ice cream & so many good options! My boyfriend got the creamsicle shake & I got the banana split flurry...my pups both DEVOURED their pup cups! So yum! read more

Extremely local and relaxed environment. Lots of people with families and dogs. Great place to sit outside and enjoy a cone without a ridiculous price read more

Friendly guy who clearly has a lot of fun doing what he does. Icecream is very creamy and such good flavors. A nice little shop.

Great hidden treasure. Not a bad wait, super friendly staff. Decent amount of outdoor seating.

good variety and nice family ice cream spot lots of space to sit and park. they have lots of different flavors you wouldn't see a lot at a normal ice cream shop! definitely worth it to come here compared to a chain! the service is pretty quick and we always end up leaving with a smile on our face read more

A classic no-frills simple pleasures, old timey ice cream spot that has something for everybody in the family, including a fat free sugar free vanilla froyo twist as a sub for the sundaes and flurries, specially for those affected by the diabetus or are watching their diets. The sizes do not disappoint - I got a medium flurry assuming the sizes are somewhat similar to a certain chain that does flurries/concretes... but to my surprise it was a PACKED 12 oz cup! I got the smores flurry and my friend got the andes mint. The smores was a cool mix of mini marshmallows, twist soft serve, and graham crackers blended into a flurry. Nothing to really write home about, but it is so satisfying to stop by on a summer's night, meet the friendly owners, and get some of the funky flavor flurries or sundaes. read more

Great family owned business. Staff is friendly and always smiling. Lots of choices and they're all great. You get more for a better price than at DQ or other ice cream shops. read more

Ice Cream Time - Peanut butter cup sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ypsilanti, Michigan

Ice Cream time is the only ice cream place near my house that's not a chain like Dairy Queen, so they tend to get my business. The tip jar on the walk up window says its "The College Fund." The employees who work there do look like local kids, and I'm happy to support them. A sign on the window says they now take debit and credit cards. On a recent visit, I got the small Turtlette Flurry. I thought nearly $3 was expensive for small until I saw the small mountain of ice cream I was receiving. I don't know why anybody would need a medium since a small is almost one and a half cups of ice cream. Mine was mixed with piece of chocolate shell, chopped pecans, and butterscotch sauce. The girl at the window said some people ask for caramel to be substituted for the butterscotch and offered to do so for me, but I declined. The building itself is kind of fun, with a big old-fashioned sign. They make an effort to provide shady seating with benches along one side, and picnic tables under an overhang in the front. However, this particular part of Ecorse Road isn't really all that scenic. You'll mostly find neighborhood kids walking up to buy a cone and then strolling off to do whatever it is kids do on summer vacation these days. read more

Born and raised in Ypsilanti and have never been to Ice Cream Time until tonight. Definitely will be back. Ordered the S'mores parfait and my mom got a twist. Very friendly service and quick too. Will be back to support this family owned business. read more

great energy at this place. i was craving soft serve and drove 25 mins to find some and i was not disappointed!! highly recommend.

To the Diabetics, they have sugar free ice cream and frozen yogurt and plenty of fresh fruit. Come by when you crave a tasty snack.

I love this place, the workers and owner are always nice and polite & the ice cream is so good every single time. Perfect place to be during the summer read more

Best ice cream place in all of the Ann Arbor/Ypsi area. They have such a huge collection of sweets to choose from! It's truly amazing how large the selection is. The workers and owner are GREAT, and always so kind. Love this place :) read more

Amazing ice cream The girl she run the place she's very friendly and great girl I mean Shannon she is the best worker on Ecorse read more

Pretty tasty, friendly service, and they have a big selection. They do have some cheap options and the sawdust sundae is a fave!The hours seem to be a mystery - I think they just close when it gets slow enough. One thing I don't like is that they do not use the custard for the shakes - they use that lame, slightly beige, soft serve. However, they still charge as if they're using the primo custard. The custard is good - but they need to start making their shakes and blizzard/tornado with it.. Or lower the prices of those items. read more

Yummy! Sugar free fat free yogurt with cherry dip... amazing! Friendly staff! Frequently visiting here!

This is a great local ice-cream joint that has a wide variety of frozen treats to choose from. They have lots of treats that use their soft-serve, like sundaes and freezes, but they also offered hand-dipped ice cream if that's what you prefer. They have about 10 or 15 flavors to choose from. Everyone is bound to find something they like at Ice Cream Time. The prices are reasonable, too. This is just a walk-up place, with a few picnic tables if you want to eat there. They do accept credit cards, which is nice for such a small place. I recommend trying this out sometime this summer! read more

I've been going here for years and I have to say the quality and quantity that you get is exactly what I want. From the coolers (orange tastes just like a old fashion creamsicle) to the mixed candy flurries I am always happy with what I walk away with. The owner is usually there when it is busy and if he isn't, he always hires great local students who, as the tip jar states, are working their way to college and success in life. Stop by and support a local business and you will not regret it. read more

This place has amazing soft serve. The peanut butter parfait is amazing, I'm usually not a fudge fan, but theirs is amazing (especially when mixed with the peanut butter). They are open every night until 10:30pm. read more

Better than DQ, the ice cream is richer - delish! The prices are much less than DQ too! And, they have many more items- it is a great little independent franchise thats been here for gosh more than 20 years at least. Really do try it, it is well worth the drive on the Avenue ( Ecorse Ave) read more

I have passed this spot more times than I can remember and never bothered to try it. I can finally say that I'm glad I did. The service was impeccable and the chocolate peanut butter shake I had was ridiculously good. Even with the line building on a warm summer's night the man I could only imagine is the owner moved along quickly, making helpful suggestions as he assembled hand dipped goodies. It was reasonably priced, especially for how big the portions are. I will go back before the season is over. Well done Ypsi! read more
