My husband loves that they offer Black Licorice flavor and I love the Peanut Butter Revel flavor! Do not be fooled by the cup size that is offered as they STACK those things full! A child size is be enough to feed an adult if not 2 adults! The place is small with no indoor seating but tons of seating outdoors! There is often a line but worth the wait! Pro tip- they are cash only but do have an atm on site. Also be sure to grab an extra cup on the way out to avoid spillage!

Nothing says summer like Nelson's! I've been coming to this spot since I was a kid with my family…read more Today, we brought a couple of friends so they could experience the magic of this little ice cream shop. As two adults, we split the kid's size cup of the 100th Celebration (peanut butter cookies and cream). We asked for an extra cup on top, and ended up splitting it into two cups. We sat outside on site and, although it was messy, it was delicious! We couldn't even finish our portion. The perfect treat on a hot summer day. Be warned - this establishment is cash only! The lines get long, but move relatively quickly.

Most are seasonal and I'm glad it's fruit pie time. I recently got the Margarita pie. Two of us go through it in 3 days. Nothing better to do than eat pie all weekend, especially these. My other favorite is the tiger striped chocolate cream. He does savory and also hand pies if you want to sample or eat it on the spot. He started a variety of ice creams, too. All your ordering is on line then you arrange a pick up time. So get on the list. He has set up his garage for all the sales. If you ever want a pie in your face, better hope it's from here.

There are plenty of signs, as this place is kind of tucked away. You will park on the street, but given the fact that this is a small town, parking is not an issue. Walk down and order at the window. They take cash and cards. There are so many options to choose from! From what I could tell, there was one dairy free option (raspberry lemon sorbet, very refreshing!) and they did have gluten free cones as a choice as well. There are a few areas for seating, but I would personally recommend taking a short trail to the left down to the river! There are a few little trails and a beautiful little creek! Very peaceful! All of the ice cream was delicious and the girls serving were super sweet! Note: This city has a siren (sounds like the severe weather siren) that goes off everyday at noon. They also use it to call for firefighters, since there is very little to no cell service in the area! Scared the heck out of us hahaha! Definitely worth going to check out!!

You order on the backside of the building / the one that faces the river. I was so excited to see they had a variety of gluten free cones...what a treat.

It did not disappoint! You can either go inside the house or order from the outside window, we stayed outside and loved it. There are plenty of places to sit and relax, and the whole setup feels like you're hanging out in someone's backyard. Super cute and laid-back, with extras like cornhole and photo areas that make it even more fun. There were so many options to choose from, but we landed on: 2 root beer floats, Ice cream nachos with cookie dough and caramel collision (so good!), 1 scoop of playdough ice cream. Everything was tasty, and the staff was friendly and patient while we made our picks. It was the perfect treat after a sunny day. The only downside and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was that we had a coupon but weren't allowed to use it or even apply the value toward our purchase. A little disappointing, especially since it was our first visit. That said, Mabel's has so much charm, and I'd love to come back to try the coffee next time. Definitely a spot worth visiting!

Generally they have a sweet treat from everyone. There wasn't too much interaction with staff outside of ordering but everyone seemed nice enough. Parking is easy as it's in a smaller strip mall.

Drive across town at rush hour hating your life in traffic? Worth it. The location? Small lot, street parking options, the cutest little stand you could ask for with a few benches to the side.
