This was our very first time at Schaffner's and it was a delightful visit. We had just left the Victoria Opera House concert starring the Nostalgic's Big Band. We saw a sign that Schaffner's supports the historic Opera House so we decided to support them. I thoroughly enjoyed my chocolate malt shake. It was delicious. I loved the malt flavor. My husband had a turtle sundae with chocolate ice cream. He loved it. Prices were great. The service was quick for a Sunday afternoon. The decor was cute and somewhat nostalgic. We will definitely come back! read more

First time here and it was insanely busy (which is awesome for a local spot). Our onion rings were really tasty and the flurries were just what was needed on a hot day. Can't believe it has taken me so long to try this place but I will be back. read more

The food is good, but the waffle fries are the best. I always ask for extra powder sugar & they give it to me. Better than all the rest! read more

Best ice cream ever. Me and got my order perfect. Has lots of games need more flavors read more

First time visiting since the renovation. Soft serve and service were excellent! Always have a selection of swirls.

Out for a Saturday evening in Baltimore, we stopped in for a sweet treat after dinner. It was our first time there, we all opted for a milkshake, which they gave several varieties to choose from. Our order took a bit longer than expected, but was worth the wait. The milkshake was a good consistency, not overly thick or too thin. I had nice chunks of strawberry in mine. Over a cool little ice cream shop. read more

Been going here since 1970. Over the years from Dutch, to Ed, to Ed's kids, quality and service has always been first rate. Try everything, it's all great! read more

I know people that worked there and they had to weigh their cones and if they were over such a weight they were told to throw them away and that is one of the stupidness things I ever heard of and I wouldn't get my ice cream products there I would go to Lancaster to Dairy Queen first read more

My daughter loves their burgers and fries. I rotate between the bbq pork, pulled chicken and the fishtail sandwich with batter dipped onion rings, or fried mushrooms. Best soft serve around. read more

Black raspberry soft serve that rivals Whit's. Mac &Cheese bits comparable to Roosters. Sweet tea that could unalive a diabetic. Good fries. Mediocre chicken salad, don't waste your time. Order something else. read more

This place is absolutely amazing! I'm 51 years old and skipped school many of times to go enjoy an ice cream cone and hot dog. They recently did a complete rebuild and things look great! Quality and taste haven't changed since I was kid. Every time I go back home to visit, this place is a must have! read more

There's nothing quite like the family owned and operated ice cream shop in your hometown! That's Schaffner's for me. They have recently opened their beautiful, spacious new dining room (which is probably 4x the size of the old building), new drive thru, lots of nice seating, and public bathrooms too!! Same great menu and hardworking staff. Most often the workers are teenagers from the local high school, but they really bust their butts to get food and ice cream out quickly. There's usually a short wait, it's definitely not fast food; but please be patient & remember you're supporting local. I think they always have 6 flavors of soft serve now, a few rotate every couple weeks while the basics are always available. And you can get pints of any of them to take home too! My favorite is the pumpkin, which usually only comes around in the fall. But their black raspberry is the local favorite around town! Skip the franchise down the road and support a local family business instead; you'll thank me later! read more

Schaffner's Drive In - Waffle cone with vanilla soft serve! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Baltimore, Ohio

Great service and good food. Clean well maintained restaurant. Staff were all polite.

I am a little torn to leave this rating. I just went through their drive thru, only thing open, and ordered a grilled chicken salad. When I got back to work to eat it there was no chicken on the salad. The salad itself was prepared great, just no chicken. When I called to let them know there is a recording. No person to pick up and no way to leave a message. You need to do better. read more

I would give Schaffner's a 5 star rating if they brought back their steamed buns! We frequent this now bigger shop about 3 times a summer being from out of town. My father used to go on and on about how Schaffner's used to have the softest steamed buns around. I found out quickly that the process of steaming their buns went by the waste-side. I feel that this kind of bun makes the food more enjoyable than just a regular toasted or plain bun. read more

Good food and ice cream good. My husband and I both grew up near family owned shops like this and this feels like the special treats we got when we were younger. Can't wait to come back. It was worth the country drive! read more

Great food and service. Perfect place to take the family or team after the kid's sporting events for ice cream. Year 'round this is a great spot! read more

Great Ice Cream! Love this place ! Thank You for putting in a drive thru now!!! Perfect place for the whole family to go to and enjoy! read more

The ice cream is good and the hot food is average. My wife and daughter enjoy the oreo flurry. The service can be a bit slow as it can get fairly busy. It's nice to have a small ice cream shop like this in town, I wouldn't go out of my way to get it. read more

I love the location I actually went mountain bike riding and I was craving ice cream afterwards and this place hit the spot! Great service as well! read more

I have loved Schaffner's since I was little, and the new building is amazing. So excited for when they open it up inside. I have, however gone through the drive thru since they reopened. Ordered the cake batter flurry and it does not disappoint! A charming local restaurant read more

Great local ice cream place. They also have food items but I love their soft serve ice cream. If you are in the area, look this place up. read more

Schaffner's Drive In - a sign on the roof - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Baltimore, Ohio

Good place for ice cream. Never, NEVER, order hot food. Overpriced and not even remotely good. I believe the buns were from their original opening in 1959. The mac and cheese they proudly displayed as being a new item by the register was basically plain macaroni with only slightly melted cheese throughout. 3 bad sandwiches, 3 mediocre sides, one sundae, and 2 regular drinks hardly justifies the near $45 it cost. Again, only get ice cream, otherwise prepare to grab your ankles. read more

The best ice cream in town! You get your moneys worth! The food is also delicious and the renovated space is very nice

I was in Baltimore to meet a client at the Library. The library was closed, but that's another story. We ended up on the picnic benches outside of this place. I went in and got an amaretto iced latte concoction...it was delicious. No seating inside, and it's not a "Drive Thru". You must park and walk inside to order. Great "old school" feel, a real community treasure as you can tell with all of the baseball team photos, etc. on the walls. Great place to stop for a "treat" while in Baltimore! read more

It is similar to Dairy Queen, but it's a family-owned business. They do have different flavors of soft serve ice cream and the flavors vary during the season they are open. Make sure you have cash, as they don't take the plastic cards or your cell phone payment app. There is no indoor seating, so you either take it with you or eat it outside. read more

Great old school small town walk-in ice cream shop. I've had excellent shakes, cones, and slushies here. Everything is always a great deal for the money, is very tasty, and the service has always been A+. read more

Best soft serve ice cream anywhere! Variety of new flavors every so often and so many choices. We love our hometown place that is very community oriented. read more

A what seems a respected long standing local establishment in Baltimore, there seems to be a steady flow of people stopping in here. It's open during the warmer months, not sure about fall and winter. I do know kids come over after school to grab and go. It's soft-serve ice cream. If they don't have the exact flavor, they have syrups and mix-ins. Unfortunately, they don't have a mint chocolate chip soft-serve, so they used (I didn't see, but am assuming) a mint syrup, and I couldn't taste it. It was basically vanilla. The chocolate shavings get pretty chopped up in the mixer, so that was a bit of a bummer. My niece got their daily special - peanut butter - and that thing tasted like eating JIF from a spoon! Mental note to self: Try it!! This joint serves serves a full menu, but the shakes seem to be where it's at. It's a main-stay for the local community since the 1950s!! read more

This little ole shop on the corner is very old school & I love it! Has an option for "drive in" but I got confused on how that worked seeing how they didn't have an order board outside so decided to come inside despite how busy it seemed. Came in around 7pm last night and it was pretty packed, more so because their waiting area/service counter area is pretty small so you either had squeeze in or just wait outside for your turn. First time coming so not sure if it's like this on the daily or just because of the Baltimore festival yesterday. Either way, I didn't wait in line for very long! I got a large PB milkshake and a medium mint chocolate chip. First let me tell you how big the 'large' was....oh my goodness it was huge (next time I'll take a pic-there will definitely be a next time) and the crazy part is they have an "XL" option. The medium was like a large. $7 for both of these delicious drinks. The milkshakes were so, so, good. Workers there are very friendly and they work pretty good under pressure! Service was fast, clean, and tasty. read more

I grew up calling this Tastee Freeze. Was my fav place to go as a kid. We all loaded into Grandpa Stilwell's pickup.First Slushy..Lime...Mmm.here in my teens. I returned to my family home in 2012. This is now Schaffners. More on menu, some inside seating. The best best shredded chicken sandwiches!!! Oh yes Coneys are "Dogs w/sauce". read more

i always go for a milkshake and it is truly amazing. does get busy at night but that's how you know it's good!

Got food this time. Footlong coney, double cheezeburger and split an onion ring with the wife. Two large drinks. So much better than sonic or DQ! Well worth the drive from Pickerington read more

Schaffner's Drive In - hours - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Baltimore, Ohio

I have lived in Baltimore for 40 some years. The owner is gruff. Never says "hi" to anyone walking in. Never says " thank you, hope you come back" either. Not my kind of place! I have only been there 3 times in all these years and that's 3 times too many. Besides the so- called ice cream is really just air. read more

Pros: Great ice cream! Good Prices, friendly service Cons: Closed in the winter :-( **haven't tried hot food** read more

Good prices, AMAZING ICE CREAM!!! Even if you don't want ice cream they have other choices!

This place is next level in flavor! The peanut butter soft may be the best soft serve I've ever had. Small town feel with small town prices. This is now my go to for frozen summer treats. My only complaint is that I don't live next door so I can eat it everyday!!! read more
