Minooka Creamery - Full updated menu! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Minooka, Illinois

Outstanding experience last night. The soft serve melts fast in this heat, so I ordered hand packaged Butter Pecan in a cup with the crunch coating. It was really good . I've been past it hundreds of times.Great quality and super fast service 5 star ***** experience. We will be back many times more! read more

We went to the creamery last night for the first time in awhile since they switched over to the new stuff. When they switched, my go to is a birthday cake blaster, and last summer we would go, but it was chocolate cake. I wasn't too excited, BUT that was my fault for not asking. I just didn't expect that in a birthday cake ice cream. So, last night when we got to the window I made sure to ask this time. The man said the birthday cake was made with a white cake and I was pleased that they changed it. After eating it, it was fully just brownie bites with sprinkles. STILL VERY GOOD, but I was disappointed because after even asking, they couldn't stop and say it wasn't white cake in the mix. Just because there's sprinkles doesn't make it birthday cake! read more

Absolutely love the community ice cream place! Upsetting to see it change owners though. B/c the workers aren't as fast as when it was owned by the previous owner. read more

Minooka Creamery is a no-frills ice cream spot located near the high school. You can order by walking up to the shop, or by using the drive through. Regardless, the service is pretty snappy and the staff is pleasant. The menu is gigantic and offers an assortment of sundaes, tornadoes, shakes, and more. Additionally, they do offer some hot food as well. I do wish the menu was a bit easier to read, as it can be tricky at night or at a distance. My go-to item is the strawberry and vanilla swirl cone. I also really enjoy the turtle sundae. However, I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu! read more

I love this place! But omg I went yesterday and didn't know they were updating their menu. As soon as I saw a picture of the upside down banana split, I knew that was what I wanted and yum!!!!! So good! Definitely were not shy on any of the ingredients either! Hit the spot read more

Great local small town establishment. Order medium dipped cone crazy how big the cone was. Great service!

This used to be the BEST place before the new ownership/franchise. Now, every time I've gone, the ice cream is terrible, they got rid of all the good hard pack ice cream and their banana shake was just vanilla soft serve with chunks of banana. I love banana but I would've just ordered a vanilla shake. This used to be me and my fiancés favorite spot, and now I'd rather go to Dairy Queen. If I could give zero stars, I would. read more

I love this place. They only do soft serve though but they make it work and they have a variety of cool summer treats. I love that this is not a chain and I don't mind at all waiting in their long lines. It is worth the wait. The people working here are down to earth and super friendly. Exactly the type of business to support. read more

Gone down hill since ownership change ordered a upside down Banna split it was completely melted I threw it away went back up to the window to order a simple cone but the workers were gone I waited at the window for 7 mins no one came to take my order this was on a Saturday at 2 read more

We have been coming here for years and have always loved it. Recently they were bought out, and it isn't the same. In the past was very focused on customer service and providing great service. Today it's turned into just normal ice cream stop very similar to a DQ. When we went to order they were out of cookie dough, the strawberry soft serve machine was broken, and two things on the menu aren't sold at this location. Don't believe we will be coming back. read more

All the items from the menu that we have ordered have all been very good, my ultimate favorite is the Dole whip.....OMG taste just like the one at Disney. I usually get the pineapple flavor I missed the watermelon flavor so I really want to try that one. overall good ice cream, whips and service is fast even with long lines. read more

2 weeks ago i got an amazing sloppy joe sandwich from the Minooka Creamery. it was on a full sized bun and sloppy joe filled the container. IT WAS FANTASTIC.. 2 days ago i went out of my way and made the trip to get 2 sloppy joe sandwiches. when i got home i found what it in the pics below. NOTE. the buns are small slider buns and there is next to zero sloppy joe on the buns. so there was almost no sloppy joe on the sloppy joe sandwich, and the sandwich itself has gone from a regular burger bun to a tiny slider bun. note in the pics that a regular piece or bread would lay in the container. that shows you how small these are. what a let down. read more

Minooka Creamery - 2 days ago... there was nothing on that sandwich. even if they had to cut back, this is rediculous - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Minooka, Illinois

My family loves going here! It is such a cute and fun place. The ice cream is amazing.

To say I'm a fan is an understatement. I am here every. single. week. Well at least late spring to early fall (I actually don't think they're open in the winter). And I come for the Italian Ice, and the Italian Ice alone... regardless of which flavor it is. Minooka Creamery is a local fave and I don't think it's going anywhere for a long time because even with the worst weather, there's always people here loading up on ice cream and such. You can either walk up and order directly in the front or you can drive up the right side, order, and wait for gloriousness. While I DO only come for the Italian Ice, once in a while I'll throw in something extra to my order like the pretzels or some nachos. It's a creamery... foods not their forte, it's more of the high school concession stand persuasion which is fitting since the Minooka high school is across the street. So unless you just have a craving for those types of eats, stick to what MC excels at... frozen foodstuffs. The menu on that is pretty extensive and inexpensive. My aforementioned favorite treat only comes in one flavor, but it changes week to week. So far my favorite has been the pomegranate and I always get it swirled with the vanilla ice cream/yogurt/whatever-it-is (I always just ask for "half Italian Ice" and they know what I mean). Also, one time when I was especially looking like a mess, when I got to the window the cashier stopped me mid order to tell me that "You are like so pretty." And not in a creepy or mean way, like she was being a totally genuine person. And then when she went to go grab my order she told me that they were all talking about how pretty I was back there... I don't know if she could see the bee's nest bun on my head but I was rocking that and an extremely oversized t-shirt (and not in a cool ironic way). But she gushed nonetheless. And after I paid, once again she gushed in a totally nice way. And it totally put a smile on my face as my husband pouted that nobody at MC told him that he was "so pretty". So I turned to him, and in an effort to make him feel better and to humble myself after this wonderful gushfest, said "Well they think I'm "pretty", but not pretty enough to get a free ice cream." And so the moral of the story is that they don't accept beauty in lieu of money at Minooka Creamery. read more

Love The creamery! Wish they would expand the menu and get more hot food. Staff is always fast and friendly

Great service fast, good size servings, good prices! Friendly staff. Looks a hole in the wall type of place but it's always busy!!! No complaints!!!wish they had more food options but they are kinda small for that. read more

Went there on a Sunday afternoon... great customer service! Clean and good quality. Recommend!!

Quaint little ice cream place with good service, great ice cream, and excellent prices! Definitely going back to try one of the multitude of sundae options they have :) My husband got a simple soft serve vanilla in a cone and I got the strawberry and chocolate soft serve in a cone. A good way to rate a place, if the base is crap nothing else will be good, and we were NOT disappointed. Excellent stuff! We stopped there just before closing on a weeknight. Service was pretty good considering it was staffed by what appeared to be a bunch of punk kids, LOL. No complaints all around. Do give the little local place a try, rather than hitting the chain down the street. For the record, I live in the city and go to a LOT of different ice cream places. Even when compared to schmancy places, this is good stuff! read more

Love Minooka Creamery! We can't wait til they open every year for summer and stop by at the very least once a week when it is open! They have amazing monthly specials and we have yet to try something we don't like! Tons of different options for sundaes, tornados, cones, hard packed ice cream, and soft serve. Their food is great too! We get our daughter's birthday cake here every year and my husband gets me chocolate dipped strawberries for Mother's Day every year. The only down side is the lines get to be VERY long (but totally worth the wait) and it's a little pricey. read more

I feel like their ice cream is overrated. It is popular because it is a hang out location in this small town, but the quality of their ice cream is mediocre. Also, the wait is extremely long. read more

They got rid of the super nachos which I think is dumb , some people don't want ice cream and that was my favorite thing from there .

Great local place for ice cream and snacks,and some food items as well. we love that it is located next to the police station, so when our children do hang out here we feel a little safer. The staff is always very friendly, always has a smile on thier face and goes out if thier way to go the extra mile to smile, and say Hello and make a little conversation. We love that they have a drive true in case you don't feel like getting out if your car, but they also have a huge parking lot, and sitting area for those beautiful summer days you do feel like enjoying your ice cream with your family and friends. Definitely give the Minooka creamery a try I love the dipped cones!! Yum read more

The cookie dough ice cream tornado is the best this place has been here for years and when I happen to be in Minooka most the time I will stop there I love this place! read more

"Cheese Cake On A Stick" no need to say more!!!!!!!! On a side note: Yelp said that my review was to short. So much for trying to leave a short and sweet review, lol.. Everything here is good. SERIOUSLY...... You have to have the cheese cake on a stick!! It will change you forever. read more

It's really 2.5 stars but, the "Meh. I've experienced better" template really summed it up nicely. A little ice cream stand that's in front of Minooka's finest and across the street from the high school. Couldn't decide which sundae to get so I got a small dough boy (cookie dough, hot fudge, and cookie) and milky way out (caramel and milky way pieces) all for $5.95. The dough boy was the favorite of the two. The milky way pieces on the other one were rock hard and hard to chew. Barely got any service. Was hardly acknowledged at the service window. Sort of got the impression that they were understaffed with only 2 high-school aged employees around 3:00 on a hot sunny day, which was kinda weird since this place is always crowded. There's something about this place that seems boring and outdated. Just can't put my finger on it. At least they accept credit cards on purchases over $5. read more

The creamery is a wonderful family oriented establishment. Their ice cream is the best as well as their other novelties. Prices are affordable and service is good. When the weather is hot, there's no better place in the minooka/channahon area to go to cool down. My family loves to go there as soon as they open in February and continue to frequent them until they close for the season in October. Highly recommended! read more

The best! Wish the lines weren't so long but well worth it! Yummy yummy!! Thanks for being so great! read more

This is a place to go if you are craving something sweet! It is so good and it is the best in town.

This place is always busy since there isn't much in Minooka. They're are always long line in the drive thru and the walk-up line. I've had the ice cream, never tried the food. I've gone 2x and both times we waited about 25-30 minutes to order. SMH. Not worth it in my opinion. I suggested they hire more people they said they did and would look into it. Guess they didn't. read more

You can't go wrong with The Creamery. We've been in town for 14 years and it has never let us down. Always a family favorite.

Great tornados but upset they got rid of frozen yogurt. They are also kind of pricy. Places like this tend me cost a little more but it's more than I expect... doesn't stop us from going though. read more

Minooka creamery is the greatest ice cream place in the entire universe. I love the great service, friendly workers, and great prices!!!

I crave this place on a regular basis living in the city. Hands down one of the best ice cream places in IL. Do yourself a favor and stop at the creamery when you're in town. You won't be disappointed!!!!!! read more
