    a person holding a cup of ice cream with sprinkles
    Jeff P.

    Had to take a pit stop on my way home found this gem! Sitting on the side of the road you get a great view of all the cool guys with loud mufflers and super cool motorcycles, now keys get to the ice cream, silky smooth soft serve atop a sugar cone delicious, a bowl of vanilla soft serve with sprinkles, wonderful, banana split was bountiful, with just the perfect amount of ice cream to banana to chocolate ratios, spot on. Grabbed a small slush puppy for old times sake. Good little find good quick service. Highly recommended

    The parking lot will tell you all you need to know. It's always packed and if it was bigger even more people would probably come. It is worth the wait though! They offer a rewards program which isn't common with the creamy whips around here so that's a nice added bonus. They are currently running a special where you can take a yard sign and earn a gift card. There are a few food options and the chili is Cincinnati style and delicious. There are a few non dairy options like dole whip and slushies. The best dish I've had here is the Reese Cup parfait. Mine is pictured without whip cream but it comes with it if you like. It has enough flavor without it for me. If you're obsessed with the peanut butter and chocolate combination then you'll love it. Lots of different and unique options for everyone.

    This place is a staple on the west side and will certainly be found with a line of cars lining the adjacent street waiting to enter the drive thru. Personally, I think their cheese coney dogs are the most underrated thing on the menu. I ate a couple before I could get a pic because their so amazing, and they're not puny like the skyline or gold star ones and the flavor of their chili is simply excellent. (Not your typical 'chili sauce') All of their staff are extremely friendly and they also offer a weekly, rotational change of flavors of ice cream as well as dole whip. My personal favorite is watermelon. In addition to all of this, DO sign up for their rewards program you get $5 off when you eventually order $50 worth of product which you will certainly do after giving this place an initial try.

    Love this lil' ice cream shop! Good variety of all things sweet & cold. We love to stop here after soccer practice. It's got a great covered patio with picnic tables so even if it's sprinkling a bit, you can stay nice and dry. It can get busy, so be prepared to wait, especially at the drive-thru. The drive-thru can get backed up, but it's only because it's sooo good! Would highly recommend!!

    This is a good soft serve ice cream shack. Is it Cincinnati's best? No, but it's nice and gets the job done. They usually have two yogurt flavors you can swirl which is cool. They also do the flavor burst thing which my niece and nephew like. The menu is very straightforward and organized. Not every creamy whip is like that. But I find the posters everywhere a little overwhelming. Can I get pineapple soft serve? Or is that just an old poster? I can't be too sure. This place also has a drive through. It would be faster if you just parked and walked up to the window (based on how the line moved while we enjoyed our ice cream outside). You also cut down on your car spewing emissions while waiting and get to interact with the wonderful little community that is created on the picnic benches.

    The drive-thru line was quick, friendly, and efficient. The ice cream was delicious! Servings are large and sweet.

    Good quality staff and service. The ice cream is good, but a little runny. The price is a little pricy though for ice cream.

    Grannies Cookie Jar & Ice Cream Parlor is a Metamora, Indiana icon, though it may be weird to call…read moreanything in this historic Franklin County town an actual "icon." There's quite a bit you know about me if you've followed my reviews for any length of time. This likely includes my long friendship with fellow Yelp Elites Rick G. and Holly G. - in fact, I performed their wedding ceremony! The three of us have actually collaborated on quite a few projects over the years, either due to Rick's music and comedy or because of my long history of activism and charity work. Frequently, our collaborations combine Rick and Holly's creativity with my activist spirit. For a couple years, Rick and Holly owned a shop in Metamora called Mosaic Learn & Play - I, in turn, owned a small charity bookstore within the walls of Mosaic. While I never spent nearly as much time in Metamora as did Rick and Holly, I spent my fair share of time there and grew to appreciate the picturesque, friendly town. Rick and Holly's wedding was even in Metamora! As is true of most historic towns, accessibility can definitely be an issue in Metamora. Truthfully, I'd say there's more that's not accessible than there actually is accessible in the town. Grannies is most certainly not perfect, a step greeting you at the front door and a crowded shop making even the most experienced wheelchair user more than a little paranoid. It's possible, I've been to Grannies more than once, but it's definitely a shop where I take my time wheeling and I am super careful everywhere I turn. Grannies, first of all, is an official world record holder. Granny owns over 2600 cookie jars - and I believe they're all actually here in this shop. She's held the record since 2012, as I recall. Grannies is, of course, an ice cream shop. Granny even makes all of her waffle cones by hand. Each one has a Hershey kiss at the bottom. She puts a whole lot of love in her waffle cones. The ice cream is pretty incredible, too. She has quite a few flavors and they're at reasonable prices for pretty darn amazing servings. Grannies is open 7 days a week throughout the year. While I can't say I'd drive all the way to Metamora for her ice cream, if I am in the Metamora there's no way I'm leaving without stopping at Grannies. Metamora is a beautiful little canal town. It has definitely been impacted by the pandemic, but the people are also hanging in there. I'm not quite going to say that time stands still here, but it's sure not a place you go to speed up. Metamora is a surprisingly easy drive from Indy and the entire Franklin County area could easily be a relaxing, fairly isolated day trip with Brookville also nearby as the seat of the county. There are even a couple places you can stay in Metamora, though they aren't particularly strong with access and you'd probably want to go to Brookville if that's needed. If you get a chance, head south to Metamora and be sure to stop in at Grannies for some ice cream and definitely check out those cookie jars!

    This is quite possibly my favorite shop in all of Metamora. Not only is there icecream for you to…read moreenjoy (though sadly, I'm not able to partake these days since it's all dairy), the store is wall to wall cookie jars. Not just wall to wall... there are added sections in the middle, too! That's not mentioning the back room also has a ton of cookie jars! There are cookie jars shaped like fruit. There are cookie jars shaped like iconic characters. There are cookie jars with Coca Cola theme. Christmas. Animals. Just seriously, so. Many. Cookie. Jars. They do also have some coffee mugs and salt and pepper shakers. Bottom line, this shop is so quirky that I can't help but stop in when I'm in town. I just watch my step and make sure my purse won't knock the shelves. In Grannie's, if you break it, you buy it! PS -- there is a bathroom in the hall between the front room and back room, should you need one. They can be difficult to locate in Metamora if you don't know where they are.

    Rowlett's is a fantastic place - a true creamery! They have the best ice cream around which is…read moremade from milk produced by dairy cattle on their old family farm. They carry a slew of other dairy products such as cheese and butter. Flavors of ice cream vary as well as store hours based on the season. I believe their facebook page gives the most reliable source for hours, typically 11-9 through the summer. Staff is always super friendly, typically you'll just see Mrs. Rowlett making and serving ice cream while her brother is busy with the various cheeses and butter. Prices are sure to not break the bank and will certainly yield more than a few smiling faces indulging in such wonderful products. Craving more than a scoop or two? Well they've got half gallons ready to go home with you currently priced $12/each. My kids say Rowlett's is the best and I wholeheartedly agree!

    If you take anything away from this review I want it to be this.... Coffee Ice Cream. You're…read moreprobably thinking yeah, yeah, big whoop. I promise you, you've never tasted anything close to the coffee ice cream at Rowlett's Milkhouse Creamery. You'll thank me later. I took advantage of this beautiful fall day to drive to Campbellsvirg in Henry County and see this place for myself. Our office gets special treats on birthdays and I got to enjoy the coffee ice cream and I was in love. The texture was like silk on your tongue. The hint of coffee was just enough to fit through the sweetness to make it out of this world divine!!!!! So I'll shut my piehole about the coffee ice cream and talk about the other things Rowlett's has to offer. They have a large variety of cheeses, ice creams, ice creams and butter. I was looking forward to buying some butter for the banana bread I'm getting ready to make; however, they were sold out. Oh well, i'll have to make another trip there I guess. This business is locally owned by brother and sister Terry and Sharon Rowlett. I had the pleasure of meeting Sharon when I visited today and she was as nice as she could be. This is most definitely worth the drive and a great way to support local business. Y'all gotta make the trip. You won't regret it.
