Cute ice cream shop close to the lakeshore. We arrived near sunset on a Sunday after spending some…read moretime at the lakeshore. There is plenty of parking and, fortunately, there wasn't a line when we arrived. We checked out the menu, which includes soft serve and scoop ice cream, and made our selections. I chose a two scoop chocolate brownie ice cream cone. It came on a cake cone, though I saw other customers had waffle cones. I wasn't asked which I preferred, but I did enjoy the rich chocolate with bites of brownie throughout! My partner choose a soft serve peanut butter parfait, and our friend choose a soft serve buckeye parfait. Both were happy with their selections. Take a seat at one of the many tables, and enjoy a frosty treat with big band-style music in the background.

Another good small place to get ice cream. Charlotte's is always a busy place. It has long been a…read morelocal favorite in Willoughby. Gets a lot of little league teams here. They have all the typical favorite treats. Good variety of ice cream. It has lots of flavors. There's both soft serve and scoop. Banana splits are also popular. They even have Dole Whip. It can be regular or swirled with vanilla ice cream. You can even get it in a float with pineapple juice like at Disney World. It's about $3 for a medium cup. Prices are kind of high for how much you can get. It also is very popular with the local youth sports leagues in the area. It even has a window just for teams to order at. This can get very crowded with loud bad kids.

The only winner here was a big hit- the unfilled Bismarck! Super soft and fluffy- bordering on syrupy but not quite- this donut was almost ideal. Light texture, sweetness but not too glazed, just about perfect in texture and flavor! The cruller was god awful. Stale, dry, rubbery, like it didn't belong at all with the fresher donuts I tried from the mix I got. The ones I got to try were inedible. BIG DOWNSIDE: CASH ONLY. $17 flat cash for a dozen.

We were in the neighbourhood interviewing someone for a podcast and decided on a sweet treat afterwards. If I wasn't in Wickliffe, I most likely would never have come across this ice-cream business because I don't normally drive down to that neighbourhood plus I had never even heard of this ice-cream spot. ICE-CREAMS - HOMEMADE!! There are plenty of ice-cream flavours to choose from and you will definitely find something that you like. They also have milkshakes, sundae's, floats, flurries, malts, etc. I got the Coconut Chocolate Almond and Salty Caramel Truffle flavoured ice-cream in a cup. Their ice-creams can be served in cones too. I enjoyed the ice-cream especially the salty caramel because I love caramel. The coconut chocolate almond tasted good too. Both flavours were very fresh. PRICES -- Very reasonable ($3 and up) and cheaper than Cleveland ice-cream shops such as Mitchell's ice-cream. BUSINESS HOURS -- They are opened from March through October every year so they close during the winter months. Look at their facebook page to find out when they open for the 2026 season. AMBIANCE -- This little ice-cream shop is an open concept one because customers order from an outside kiosk. Seating is also outside on benches. TIP -- This is a CASH ONLY business. If I'm in the neighbourhood again, I will be happy to stop on into Jerry's Dari Pride. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 7/250 total reviews in 2026 - 848 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 February 2026

This ice cream stand is part of my every summer for years now! I always stop in for a sweet treat…read morein the summer when shopping in Wickliffe or Willoughby! This stand has been part of the community for 60+ years! It's a family owned business! How impressive is that! Ice cream: I have tried various ice creams (scoops and sundaes) here over the years and was never once disappointed! I'm especially addicted to their homemade flavors! My absolute favorite is cherry vanilla. I love that it contains cherry chunks! I always get waffle cone to spoil myself! Their ice cream is incredibly smooth, not too sweet, and tastes amazing! Must try! Scoops are very generous! Seating: There are a few tables and benches where you can enjoy the sunny days. Some have shade to protect from the sun, some do not. No indoor location is available. Most people come as a family, socialize, and eat ice cream for a while. I prefer to get my ice cream and eat it in my car with A/C on full blast! Payment: This location is cash only. Digital payments and cards are not accepted. Service: Employees here are consistently nice. Usually the same familiar faces! Parking: The ice cream stand has its own parking spots. If those are occupied, park in the adjacent plaza. There are always plenty of parking spots! Add this place on your summer destinations list! Stop in, bring friends, family, and your dogs! I'll be back soon to try more homemade flavors before the summer fades into fall!

I first experienced THAT delicacy over 20 years ago in a small shop on the outskirts of Mentor, OH. It was simply stunning. This frozen custard treat was literal as the name implied: out the same texture as freshly mixed concrete. It was delicious. Now fast forward to this most recent trip to East Coast, and their"concrete" offerings. The menu was hugely diverse, and my serving was delicious, but too many fading memory, was NOT what I was expecting based on the old days. Delicious and recommended? Yes. A Concrete like I was expecting? No. Hence a four star rating. Disclaimer: in fairness to East Coast, my memory may well be totally off, but my wife was with me on both occasions, and she, as a native Ohioan, was in agreement with me. We did not recreate that original experience. That said, we DID visit 5 or 6 times over a7 day stay!!!

There were actually 2 dad's with their children eating, so I could tell this is a pretty popular place with families. Although it's touted as a self serve frozen yogurt shop, I came for a Matcha Green tea Bubble tea, with tapioca pearls (is it even a without the pearls?). While I waited as it was prepared, I chatted with the cashier. He was friendly and admitted that 80% of the decor was his idea (after I'd asked). Tea was ready quickly, I snapped some flicks, got a punch card and told him I'd be back to visit when I'm in the area and have a taste for Tea. Although, my beverage was tasty, I'm.not sure if it the matcha was added, or just low quality, because the distinct color was not giving. For that, I took off a star, but I would bring my toddler here for sure.

I'm most impressed that this custard (see picture) was this solid after a 35 min drive home! The gentleman taking my order was super patient and helpful in helping me decide what I wanted. Also, the current flavor of the day is turtle and honestly would've considered that too if I could eat 2 scoops!
