    Tastee Freez has been a fixture in my community that I've been enjoying since before I could say the words 'ice cream. I appreciate that they source their milk from Meadowbrook Farms. They are quite generous with the portions!

    This is a great local ice cream shop in the Albany area! I always get their tornados - reminds me of a DQ ice cream. They don't have any indoor seating, but they do have outdoor tables and benches. They also do not have any hard ice cream. I got the chocolate tornado with candy and hot fudge on top!

    Great ice cream, chili dogs and milkshakes!! They have so many flavors of soft serve it's hard to choose just one! There is no seating except for a bench so go order and eat in the car. Cash only, I think.

    Very good! Finally, it seems their service and ice cream is back to where it used to be. Don't know what happened for that one season but it's good to see things back to normal.

    Every time I am in New York I come here! It's what I look forward too every trip our family has been coming here for soo many years now and after my wife and I moved away every single time we go back home the whole family comes here. It's the best. Some great laughs and great ice cream oh and don't forget the hot dog Couldn't tell you whether the staff is friendly every time but for me since coming here they get our orders done fast and that's all we can ask for

    Stand "under the rainbow," every six feet!

    Tastee Freeze is OPEN, it must be spring! This harbinger of the end of winter is a welcome sign to Delmartians!! Reliably opening on March 1st, it's comforting to us all , like the first crocus pushing up through dirty snow. Even the TU gave it its due this morning : https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Following-death-of-beloved-patriarch-ice-cream-16003695.php#photo-20707766 "I grew up in the back of the store," Sheldon said. "When I walk in there, I'm filled with 40 years of memories and my Dad's sayings. It's both incredibly helpful and difficult, as you can imagine." One of those sayings: "Ice cream is always there for people in the good times and the bad times." Someone should collect the stories...I'm sure they will be told this summer around the picnic tables near Tastee Freeze.

    Cash only. Prices aren't cheap, but oh so worth an occasional treat. Good thing I live in NYC, or I'd get obese by frequenting this business way too often. Family run shop. Always a ton of customers enjoying the treats on premises (a few tables for sitting). Young to old, everyone delights in delicious ice cream that unites people from all walks of life. Ice cream fans--look no further--this is your heaven on earth. I wasn't prepared for how amazing a simple vanilla cone can taste. The soft serve was not too soft, which I hate. It didn't melt right away, which was good, so I was able to savor every bit for a long while. The "small" cone portion was enough for sharing amid two people. We also got a special brownie fudge sundae. Also great for sharing--the portion is gigantic! The brownies were warm and soft. The fudge was thick and chocolatey, none of that liquidish supermarket atrocity that mars the name of fudge. Definitely a spot-on treat that was too high in calories but made my day. Can't wait to be back in the area for some more ice creaaaaaam!

    $6.25 for an ice cream sundae with apple pie filling, whipped cream, and an apple cider donut?!? Yes please! The ice cream options were vanilla, chocolate, vanilla/chocolate swirl, pumpkin, and vanilla/pumpkin swirl. Plenty of parking spaces available and they had some benches set up so you can enjoy your ice cream outside. Super friendly service and I'm sure I will be back again soon!

    Slightly overcrowded, but it's a decent place to get ice cream. They should have a bigger sign that says only cash and that they have an ATM in the back of their store. They do offer a wide selection of flavors, and if you have vegan or gluten allergy, they have options.

    Love Jim's! Always great service and food! Little tip- bring cash, but they do have an atm if needed. Wonderful Delmar establishment!

    This is the best soft serve fat free frozen yogurt anywhere. The ice cream is great as well, but for those of us who have to cut out the saturated fat, the yogurt is every bit as good. It is firm yet creamy and sweet and reminds me of the days when I could eat frozen custard. You'll love the soft ice cream but if you need the option, the fat free yogurt is every bit as good and it's good for you! And for s special treat, get a Butterscotch Sundae with frozen yogurt, but you'll need a large one because they're just that good.

    It's cash only. In 2024. Anyone can get a credit card reader. There's really no excuse for being so behind the times

My husband and I decided to get the Ice Cream Flight. Which is a choice of six flavors, served in a cute little egg carton style container. We chose to try vanilla, honey vanilla, coffee heath bar, caramel crunch, PB Oreo, and cookie dough. Both of us loved the honey vanilla the best. The texture was just soft and almost fluffy, with a really nice flavor. I also really enjoyed the caramel crunch and my husband liked the coffee heath bar. While those were the favorites, all of the flavors were delicious and I look forward to going back to try others in the future. We were also happy to see that they make their own waffle cones and have a couple vegan ice cream options. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, answering questions and efficiently serving everyone that came in. Really pleased with this new shop and think that it's a wonderful addition to the town.

A small cone or dish is 3 scoops, currently at $5.25, tax included. It's cash only, but there's an ATM several feet to the right of the ordering counter. I got 2 scoops of peanut butter ice cream topped with a scoop of vanilla. The vanilla had some very small ice crystals in it but was otherwise fine. I really love their peanut butter ice cream. It's creamy with the peanut butter flavor but not overwhelming. The cone does seem to be a little small for all that ice cream, so don't dilly-dally too much eating it in warm weather. Since some other parlors near me have closed, Scoups has become by default the closest ice cream spot to me that makes their own hard ice cream. This is not a bad thing. It's also not bad that it's not too far away from Wolf Road, and it becomes a convenient spot for dessert after dinner nearby.

There are picnic tables available on the property in front of a wooden fence where you can often see a few cows grazing nearby. Talk about farm to market! Not only is the homemade ice cream top quality, it is delicious. In addition, they serve soft vanilla and soft chocolate, dole whip, homemade Italian Ice, and Frogurt. The numerous flavors of ice cream are rich and bold. They are described well on the menu. Portions are generous so you may want to size down. I like a "small" cone of the Toffee Heath Bar Crunch. Staff is friendly and efficient no matter how long the line is at the window.
