Mitchell's Ice Cream - Rocky River - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rocky River, Ohio

This ice cream is fantastic! Went for the first time this weekend and loved it! I got the key lime and pumpkin spice. My husband got the buckeye, it was really great vegan ice cream and the texture was perfect. The Key lime was full of flavor, as a key lime fan, this won me over. The pumpkin was really great as well I just wish it had some texture in it. Other than that, no notes! read more

Come here often but yesterdays visit was great. We came in after dinner to a line out the door, which made the guest from out of town worried but I knew we would get through in no time. About 10 minutes of waiting we were sitting down enjoying our ice cream and fresh waffle cones. The location is clean, friendly, and quick everything you could ask on top of some amazing ice cream! read more

I have been to all three Mitchell's locations. I like this one best because there is a parking lot that is right there at the building. There is plenty of indoor seating. The service was quick, accurate, and friendly. They offered samples of whatever we wanted to try. There is a public bathroom which isn't always the case at some ice cream places. read more

Amazing ice cream especially when you take into account the freshness and the high quality ingredients being used. Great customer service. The line tends to be long but it moves very fast! Reasonable prices read more

Great service, great product, excellent staff! Always a pleasure visiting each location

Always my go-to spot when I want something sweet. The workers are always attentive and fast-moving which is appreciated. The new remodel looks great and as always, the flavors are impeccable. read more

Best coffee ice cream I've ever had. Love their Sundays, it's always a win. Only downfall is they hate the police and make it known. Hopefully if they ever are robbed they think twice about that. read more

Nothing makes me happier than an ice cream shop that offers vegan flavors (that aren't just sorbet)! And Mitchell's had at least 3 vegan flavor options! I tried the Vegan Buckeye, and it was phenomenal. So much so, that I was convinced they scooped the wrong the flavor because it was so delicious and creamy. (They did not - I double checked the rest of the menu and there were no other peanut butter based flavors). Also very happy that the vegan ice cream flavors were the same price as the standard. Lastly, I appreciate how you were able to order a "Taster's Choice", and get 2 flavors in one cup! read more

Simply amazing! Staff is so friendly and I love that they offer so many vegan flavors. It's refreshing to see something different that is not just sorbet. The toppings are delicious and the flavors are exceptional. Definitely my go-to Icecream spot. Kid friendly 2.0! Cash and credit accepted. read more

If you thought you've had ice cream before, think again. Mitchell's Ice Cream is unbelievably good! At first I was a bit hesitant because the line was out the door. That's way too long, but I gave it a shot. I was only waiting in line for maybe 10 minutes at most. Pricing was pretty standard for an ice cream shop, but boy the taste was not standard at all! I ordered a duo (two flavors, one scoop each) with a waffle cone. Wow. The Peanut Butter Chocolate and Cookie Dough were amazing! Those are usually my go to favorite flavors when it comes to ice cream and I was blown away. The consistency, the richness, all of it was delicious! I'm craving the ice cream right now and it's been a day! Definitely going to be back again soon! read more

Mitchell's Ice Cream - Rocky River - Duo Scoop with Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup and Cookie Dough - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rocky River, Ohio

HISTORY -- If you're from Ohio then you may know of some classic ice-cream companies that were founded here -- Jeni's Ice-Cream in Columbus (which has now expanded to different cities across the U.S.), Graeter's Ice-Cream in Cincinnati (known for their French Pot Ice-Cream), and here in Cleveland, Mitchell's Ice-Cream (all ice-creams are made inside their huge flagship store in the Ohio City neighbourhood of Cleveland). ICE-CREAMS (plus other items) -- Mitchell's has delicious tasting ice cream that you can buy in a cone or plastic cup. They don't have very unique flavours like Jeni's Ice-Cream but the menu is still quite extensive. In June 2019, I visited with my friend Ami. I bought the Caramel Fudge Brownie ice-cream which I loved. The chewy pieces of brownie pieces left me wanting more after each bite. My friend had the Turtle Sundae which I though tasted okay mostly because the ice-cream was melting and it had pecan nuts inside. On my most recent visit (August 2019), I tried a small spoon sample of the vegan caramel ice-cream with pecan nuts. I liked it but I hate nuts in my ice-cream. I ended up buying the caramel sea salt and the cookies & cream ice cream in a cup. The caramel sea salt has a slight burnt sea salt taste which pairs well with the sweet caramel. Besides Ice-Cream, you can also buy milkshakes, malts, and fresh fruit smoothies. Mitchell's Ice-Cream is great and because of the large menu options, you'll most likely find an ice-cream that you like. Service has always been good during the times that I've visited the Rocky River location. LOCATION -- Take a look at their main store in the Ohio City neighbourhood of Cleveland. This flagship location is huge and it Is also where they make their ice-cream. *TIP -- For the VEGANS out there, they sell just 2 vegan flavours (Chocolate and Salted Caramel Pecan). **** - 122 total reviews in 2019 - 331 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 28 August 2019 read more

Mitchell's is a Cleveland area staple and for good reason. The ice cream is smooth, creamy, and flavorful. If frozen yogurt is your thing, you're in luck. My personal favorite is the peanut butter chocolate pretzel which is peanut butter frozen yogurt with a generous helping of chocolate covered pretzels balls mixed throughout. When my mood is a bit more classic, I go for the cookies and cream or the mint chocolate chunk. So good! Each Mitchell's location includes a train that runs along the upper border of the facility walls, and also includes a smaller children's table with crayons and paper to color. If you speak to any Clevelander and ask for their opinion on a sweet treat, odds are they will point you in the direction of a Mitchell's. Take the advise! read more

We had to figure out Mitchell's system during Covid time. You don't go inside. All parking spots have signs for curbside pickup. Pull in your vehicle. An employee will come out to take your ice cream order, and you pay then. After a short time your order appears. Some people eat their ice cream in their vehicle. Some people leave. We sat in the grass and ate our ice cream. There are also two city benches on the sidewalk to sit on. Note that the Key lime ice cream was the real deal. The butter pecan and rocky road were delicious, too. read more

This ice cream is very good!!! So many unique flavors, too!!! I had key lime and wild berry crumble!!! Delish!!! Good size portions, too!!! My daughter had cookies and cream which very good, too, and had big cookie chunks in the vanilla ice cream!! Her fiancé had a strawberry milkshake which was a good size!! Another bonus feature of Mitchell's was how quickly the line moved especially on a busy Sunday night!! This store was well organized and I was happy I didn't have to wait for my treat!!! read more

I'm going to say this, I went to the top ranked ice cream shop in the nation...Mitchell's is better. Mitchell's is a Cleveland staple! My favorite is the Wildberry crumble! Seasonally the campfire s'mores will knock your socks off! If you like ice cream, look no further! read more

Mitchell's Ice Cream - Rocky River - Sundaes - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rocky River, Ohio

They weren't lying when they said it's the best ice cream in Cleveland! There are so many great flavors and you can get them each however you like your ice cream-- as a milkshake, in a cup, in a cone, with sprinkles, or as a sundae. Quality ice cream with an array of seasonal flavors available, and great long standing flavors too. Some personal favorites include wildberry crumble, tiramisu, turtle brownie, and the amaretto cookie at Christmas time! The vegan chocolate is hands down the best dairy free ice cream I've ever had! So creamy and rich and amazing. They have a variety of vegan flavors available, as well as sorbets, and frozen yogurt in addition to ice cream. The workers at this location are generally very friendly, kind, and helpful! They are patient with you yet quick. A lovely experience each time! Only improvement would be parking--while it's better than street parking the lot at this location is incredibly small! Often have to park in the lot across the street, not terribly far but definitely an area that could be improved. read more

Although Mitchell's ice cream is good, I honestly don't really understand the hype. I had been to Mitchell's a few times; more so in high school and college and I never really could tell why everyone raved about it like it was the best ice cream in Cleveland. I would say it's pretty much your average scoop shop. Most recently, I went to this location in Rocky River. Ironically, the night before at my sister's wedding, I was arguing with my uncle about who had better ice cream; Malley's or Mitchell's. I told my uncle I was going to take my boyfriend to Malley's the next day. However, I had a rude awakening when I found out Malley's was closed for Memorial Day. So I took my boyfriend to Mitchell's instead (and met up with my newlywed sis and brother-in-law!). All in all, my assessment of Mitchell's hasn't changed. The ice cream is good. But it's just your average scoop shop with various flavors. The consistency of the ice cream is good. I just am not over-the-moon for it and I'd choose Malley's 100% of the time over Mitchell's (as long as they're open obviously). Malley's resonates with that nostalgic, 1950's soda shop vibe-- all about the experience. They have excellent hot fudge, candies, a frickin carousel you can sit on while you eat your ice cream (only at the North Olmsted location). Compared to that, Mitchell's just seems basic. All in all, I'd go back to Mitchell's on the few days out of the year when Malley's is closed. Their ice cream is good, but not as good as it gets. read more

The best ice cream that I always look forward to having. Somehow it's like no other. So many tasty flavors and seasonal ones. You won't regret trying Mitchell's. Only downside is there can be a long line but it moves fast and is always worth it. read more

Don't be scared by the Mitchell's line! The wait is always worth it i'm my opinion. There's so many great summer seasonal flavors and the staff works fast but is friendly at the same time. read more

Does this place even need to be reviewed anymore? There is no ice cream place in Cleveland more iconic than Mitchell's. It's that place that is so beloved by everyone that you want to hate it just to be cool and different, but you literally can't because the quality of the ice cream, flavor options, customer service, business ethics and sustainability practices (at least to my knowledge/what they've shared) are just so good. I can't even pick one favorite flavor and almost always try all of the seasonal options every time I go. I think Amaretto cookie (winter seasonal) has got to be a favorite as well as lavender (if that flavor is still around--summer seasonal). The taster's duo is the best deal--for a few cents more than a single (or maybe it's the same price? Can't remember I just get it) you can pick 2 flavors (and they sometimes pack it almost as much as a double but I'm not here to expose any worker for being generous). If you visited Cleveland, but didn't stop by Mitchell's, you did it wrong. read more

Sinfully great. And I crave it during the Winter just as I crave it in the Summer. It's a year long delight. Is there any better ice cream? Don't think so!!!! read more

Great Mitchell's! A little on the smaller side compared to the other locations. It is very conveniently located in Rocky River though which is nice. It is walking distance from many restaurants which makes it a great stop after dinner out. read more

After dinner one night in Ohio City, we tried to go to Mitchell's but the line was out the door. Luckily, this location was on our way home. Winning! This was my first visit and it was a treat! I had a scoop of banana cream pie and a scoop of chocolate peanut butter cup. It was actually a split scoop but they had a different name for it. Perhaps it was a dual scoop? The banana ice cream exceeded my expectations. It had incredible depth of flavor with marshmallow ribboned inside and shortbread crust that gave it that "pie" feel. I need to have more chocolate peanut butter ice cream in my life! It would have been fine standing alone but the added textural component of peanut butter cups took it over the top! Combine both of these flavors and there was literally a party in my mouth! The staff was engaging, friendly, and very helpful. They had a roomful of customers and each was smiling and ready to go! The parking lot was a bit crowded but customers were coming and going at a regular clip. A cute train was running overhead about a foot below the ceiling. It was kind of neat to watch as we enjoyed our cones. read more

I have an unhealthy obsession with ice cream and love finding unique local offerings. Judging by the crowd at Mitchell's, so do a lot of other people. Visiting from out of town, this place was recommended by a friend and it was an outstanding suggestion. I tried the salted caramel vegan ice cream and it was amazing. read more

There's a good atmosphere, I love the train! The ice cream is so creamy. Amazing place for a sweet treat!

Where do I start Mitchell's = Happiness for my family We've tried just about all the flavors and each one becomes a favorite. Whether it's warm or cold outside ... Mitchell's always hits the spot read more

I love this place great service and ice cream. Only negative is I can't get all the flavors I love. I also love all the benefits they offer their employees read more

THE BEST PART ABOUT CLEVELAND. Amazing ice cream, plenty of flavors. Honestly, not much else to say about it. It's creamy, never icy. It's never overly sweet or skimping on mix-ins. The flavors never taste artificial and the fruit ones are especially fresh. They have seasonal flavors as well. If you buy to go pints or quarts they'll give you some small cones to take home as well. Personal favorites include banana cream pie, peanut butter pretzel yogurt (I'm surprised a yogurt one made it), and wildberry crumble. read more

Best ice cream in Cleveland. So many different flavors and they always surprise you with decent flavors. Portions are very generous. See picture for junior scoop. And they also have shakes and malts too. Service is so nice and welcoming read more

In North East Ohio there are essentially two Ice Cream shops that you need to be aware of. Jeni's and Mitchell's. They are both amazing, as for Mitchell's Ice Cream it is a perfect way to end the day. They are constantly making new flavors of ice cream each one as amazing as the last, and have all the staples that you would expect from a small-town ice cream shop from complex brownie sundaes, to banana splits, to root beer floats. The ice cream flavors are trendy, yet classic with flavors such as lemon sorbet and other staples such as salted caramel. The ice cream is very soft, consistent in texture, I have yet to find any ice chips (a huge positive over some places). I personally and a fan of their sundaes, anything with hot fudge and whipped cream and I sold. Stop on in if you are in the area, the line may look daunting however the always friendly staff manage to keep it moving a light speed and you will be happily cooling off with some of your favorite ice cream in no time. read more

This is a cute Mitchell's ice cream location on the edge of Rocky River and Westlake. Like all of the other Mitchell's they have similar ambiance and the train my kiddos adore. We tried some new flavors. Vegan mint truffle and turtle brownie. Both were terrific and ended up being our choices. It is awesome that they have so many vegan flavors. It makes it really easy for my husband. My kids also love the chocolate and blue cosmo. read more

This is another great location for Mitchell's! The ordering process was very smooth and efficient. The facility was extremely clean too. Throughout the half hour we spent here, we saw multiple workers cleaning up after patrons. Of the 4 of us, we all loved our ice cream choices. Mine was obviously the best with my single scoop of chocolate peanut butter cup with some hot fudge added. If we're in the area and in the need for ice cream, we will be back here! read more

I went to the Whole Foods across the street from this location to make sure my pallet of equipment was there for tonight's remodel. Then I was leaving to find a place to eat and drove a few miles but nothing jumped out at me. Good places with 4.5 star reviews or better but the ice cream kept calling me back. Neat thing about being an adult, if you want to have a Turtle Sundae for supper, you can . Great ice cream! Great customer service and the line moved quickly. read more

Like some other reviewers have said, Mitchell's is good but nothing to write home about. This location is clean and has good parking, and the staff was friendly but a little disorganized. There is a toy train that runs along the ceiling, which would be very fun for kids and was a nice touch. Overall, though, I wouldn't go back if I had other ice cream options. read more

I'm always impressed by Mitchell's Ice Cream. I'm a huge Mint Chocolate Chip fan. My boyfriend has tried like five different flavors and he has enjoyed everyone of them. I love how Mitchell's is set up. We get through the line so quickly and everyone is incredibly friendly. This particular Mitchell's has a really small parking lot, but there is a lot of parking in nearby locations. read more

Best ice cream I've had the pleasure of eating so far. I grew up in Northeast Ohio, and Mitchells has always been a staple. They locally source a lot of their ingredients, and the quality shows through in their ice cream. I've ordered my personal favorite flavor, chocolate chip cookie dough, more times than I can count. It's delicious every time-- plentiful chunks of cookie dough, generous portions. I'd recommend this place to anyone visiting or anyone in the mood for awesome ice cream, summer or winter! read more

Mitchell's Ice Cream - Rocky River - Packed! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rocky River, Ohio

My review is based on two flavors of ice cream and the amount of Sorbets available. I am usually a HUGE vanilla fan but Mitchell's just isn't good. I had Hartzler ice cream I bought at Heinen's and it was much crazier and sweeter. There is something about vanilla that has to come close to a soft serve vanilla taste for me to love it - this one is just not special. In the other hand the Banana cream pie flavor was amazing! It was creamy and bursting of flavor and had amazing crunchy pieces of pie crust in it. I would go back for it! I had a taster's duo which is the perfect combo for me. I added some whipped cream on top as well! I was a little disappointed by the selection of sorbets - I think there were two flavors. Mango and some berry flavor. There is an ice cream place in RR on old Detroit that has a better selection if you're looking for lactose free/dairy options - which I usually am if I am not carrying lactase tablets around with me haha read more
