I really enjoy this place a lot. They do specials everyday if your bar is drawn, you get a free ice cream! They have such a creamy soft serve. It's very filling and soft. Their prices are very reasonable as well. They have a lot of different flavors and different items you can choose from. The staff has always been very good towards me when I have went. But, I like that they have drive thru. Join their facebook to see if your name comes up for free ice cream! read more

Me and my sister visited this little ice cream shoppe recently and ordered a frozen lemon custard cup and a banana split. I asked for extra nuts,and the young ladies behind the counter were kind enough to give me a small cup of nut at no extra charge. The lemon custard was creamy,sweet and very refreshing. And my banana split was HUGE. It has plenty of toppings and bananas,just the way I love it. Sorry about there being no photos, but our ice cream was devoured on site. I'd highly recommend visiting silver dairy when you have a sweet tooth. read more

Mediocre ice cream but the place hasn't change for years so it bring some nostalgia memories. Cheaper and faster than some ice cream chain. I do like the soft serve from Rita's better, more creamy Even I give it 3 stars. I still prefer to come here instead of buying ice cream from the store. Experience is better fresh from the machine. read more

This place has such a fun menu and has all the charm and ambiance of a classic mom and pop ice cream shop. The soft serve is some of the best in the area and I'd say tastes close to custard! I tried their eggless cookie dough and it was incredible mixed with their chocolate soft serve. They are quick to serve and I will most definitely return! read more

A local gem! Delicious ice cream, great service, and reasonable prices. A cute spot to stop by if you're in town, we got the Warm Cookie Sundae and the Goldminer Sundae. The gal who took our order was super friendly and they have an outdoor seating area. The cookie in the sundae wasn't the greatest but other than that our experience was fantastic! I saw a sign that says they also donate to the local community- so cool! Would recommend! read more

Love that they have a drive-thru. Very kind staff who are always efficient. I enjoy supporting a kind, local business who has been here for so long. A good staple of Farmington read more

Decided to get a little freaky and ask for some rainbow sprinkles. Unfortunately, the girl who made my cone overfilled it, and instead of remaking it, she just scooped the excess ice cream out and handed it to me misshapen and melting. Half of it dropped down my arm . read more

Silver Dairy - Misshapen cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Farmington, Michigan

I'm reviewing Silver Dairy based on one item: the frozen chocolate covered banana. It's amazing. It's nostalgic. It reminds me of all the good things from childhood. They'll dip it in whatever topping you want. I recommend chocolate and sprinkles. Yum! I've tried a few other things over the years and they are great too. But, when given the option of a frozen banana, it's just hard to pass. Definitely visit this classic spot in Farmington, Michigan. You'll love it. read more

Friendly service and great treats!! Now open year round, they give back to our community and hire local high school kids. The ice cream nachos will haunt your dreams, such a brilliant idea! I usually end up getting 2 small flurries because I can never decide which one I want. Just all around goodness. read more

This has been a local staple for us for years. Most recently, we've loved coming here with our dog Bruce so he can enjoy a puppy cone too! We don't get to wild with our orders and stick to the traditional soft serve with either hot caramel (the best around) or hot fudge. There is always a generous amount of toppings and it keeps us wanting more. The staff changes seasonally and some years are friendly than others but we don't mind as the ice cream stays great. We will back soon with the pup! read more

One of my favorite places to come, in the summer time especially. Such a staple in Farmington. I love that there is a drive thru option. They rotate dole whip flavors which is amazing. Such a classic, old school, vintage ice cream place feel//aesthetic. Service is always good, very efficient timing- even when busy. 10/10 forever. read more

Honestly, when I came here, I wasn't really expecting much. After I took that first bite of ice cream, I was blown away. The ice cream here is absolutely delicious. Legit one of the best I've had in a while. I ordered the brownie sundae, and my friend, the banana split. I can not begin to explain how yummy they both were. My friend had to guard their banana split from me cause I definitely wanted to take more than a few bites. Also, it was nice to sit outside under their umbrella protected table and enjoy this sweet delicacy. read more

A SOLID ice cream spot with lots of options and a classic vibe. A great place to get a cold treat in the summer!

My friend had a taste for ice cream. I suggested we go to Silver Dairy as it has been my go-to spot for over 20 years. My friend ordered a cup of butter pecan, which is her absolute favorite. She tasted it and said it had a strange taste and felt it may be spoiled. She asked is she could get a different flavor and was told she would have to pay for another cone. She barely took a bite out the ice cream she had ordered. The young lady offered to throw the full cup of ice cream away but told my friend she would have to pay for another ice cream. My friend was not given a refund. She paid $3.75 for nothing. Now I read a review from 3 weeks ago where someone dropped their ice cream and water and was immediately given a replacement by the friendly staff. I am upset because I recommended Silver Dairy out my past positive experiences and my friend ended up with the complete opposite experience. I will not be returning to Silver Dairy because of the way my friend was treated. I won't be returning since it appears replacement ice cream is given away if you are clumsy and drop your ice cream; however, if the ice cream is spoiled, you have to buy another flavor. read more

Great little Ice Cream shop with long local history. Now serving Guernsey's. It's always busy for a reason. Super cheap and great service. Location dates back to the 40's. If you want the chain puke so there if not support a local business read more

Delicious, delicious soft serve ice cream at such an inexpensive price! You can get vanilla and chocolate (as low as $1.59 for a small waffle cone), with a sweet $0.35 dip in chocolate, cherry or butterscotch. Or, try some of the flurry specials, which are toppings mixed into your ice cream and into a cup! For ~$2.50 I got an apple pie-flavored flurry with pie crust and vanilla ice cream. In downtown Farmington Hills, accessible by SMART. read more

Best ice cream in town. Classic Farmington favorite. Workers are sweet and fast. They never disappoint.

My partner and I have lived in Farmington Hills for years and we always would drive by and not stop. We did stop the other day and the line was long but worth the wait. The soft serve ice cream was phenomenal. We will be going again and again. read more

Special shout out to Silver Dairy! Not only was the ice cream we got there delicious, they gave some to our dog and he loved it too! read more

Summer is here!! This is like a clone of Guernsey farms location. Silver dairy serves a good selection of guerney's ice creams. Apart from ice-creams they serves good shakes, malts and sundaes. Best part is that they have a nice seating place with many families having a good time. I would recommend this place for everyone especially family with young kids. read more

Please go back to your sundae boat bowls. My husband had a banana split and I had turtle and it was way to much ice cream and not even a sundae! We love silver dairy but if the large cups continue we will be going to DQ more often. read more

This place is great and i have a hard time imagining Farmington without it. When i was little i would always comes here after softball, and i still go now. It's a great price, especialy for younger customers. Very well run and is an amazing summer treat! read more

Silver Dairy is a Farmington staple. Just a quick walk from downtown Farmington, this place is a great little walk up ice cream place, perfect for that ice cream cone to finish off a hot summer's day. I usually opt for a small swirl dipped in chocolate. They also offer flurries, sundaes, frozen slushees and italian sodas. There is also the choice to do the drive through if you can't be bothered to leave your car. I just went here the other day for a quick cone, and they were nice enough to offer my dog her own doggie dish of vanilla ice cream, topped with a few dog treats. They made Dharma, my pup, a very happy girl! I have to admit that the soft serve ice cream here isn't the best I've ever had, but it hits the spot on a nice summer evening, hence the three star A-OK rating. Oh, and while your here, don't forget to say hi to Moo-linda, Silver Dairy's cow mascot right in front of the building...snap a picture if you want, after all, it is a Farmington tradition! read more

We come here because my 3 yr. old begs us to walk up and it's cheaper than Cold Stone (plus you don't have to listen to employees sing when you tip them). I am usually disappointed. Today I had a watermelon slushy which had too much syrup and not enough ice. My husbands blueberry shake tasted like a malt and was just okay. I usually get a vanilla dipped in chocolate and even that tastes funny here. I know, how can someone mess that up, you ask... the chocolate has an aftertaste and the vanilla is a bit off. But I am all for supporting local establishments and giving in to my son. read more

Soft serve was so-so, compared to D.Q. Perhaps they're hard serve ice cream which is made by Guernsey Dairy is much better. I live closer to Guernsey and have closer access to it so not likely to buy it here. Staff is friendly AND they have a drive-thru service! read more

Every summer my husband and I see all these little ice cream places open up in our area and we get really excited, go in to try their ice cream, and come out disappointed but Silver Dairy was an exception. Some of the creamiest soft serve I've ever had, and pretty cheap too. They're sizes are not as large as a Diary Queen might be but, they are large enough to be satisfying. Every time we've been there, they've been busy and it seems to be quite a popular teenage hang out, but it's still very family friendly. Our 1 year old just had his 1st cup of ice cream there. Silver Dairy also sells some flavors of Guernsey's ice cream and they are to DIE for! I just wish they'd stay open for a little longer in the fall. :) If you go... get the Turtle. read more

The biggest problem with this place is deciding what to get! A classic soft serve ice cream place, run by local high school kids, it has a small town charm and local celebrity Moolinda out front. It can get a little busy at times and you are bound to run into someone you know. This year, I noticed that chocolate dip is thicker which helps slow down the melting on a hot summer day. Reasonably priced, giant cones (even the small) and lots of choices. It simply a classic ice cream stand. read more

Pretty tasty! Friendly service and the drive thru is great! Will definitely go back. Lots of shakes and sundae options. read more

Tasty ice cream at a great price. Malts, sundaes, and regular soft serve are all great. They serve local Guernsey ice cream as well. The drive thru is really convenient! The only minor complaint is their serving sizes tend to vary a lot based on whoever is working, but I would gladly go to Silver Dairy rather than a national chain. read more

Love to get ice cream and go to the park! Friendly employees and reasonable prices! We always make up what we order and they are very accomodating. read more

Inexpensive and great soft serve! Smooth and creamy. Nice people and downtown Farmington's town sqare is just a few blocks. Cash only but its worth the ATM stop. Good variety with some outdoor seating. Can't miss it, right on Grand River. ATM's just down the road. read more

These guys have a pretty hefty menu if you ask me! They don't skimp on your sizes, the customer service is always sweet as pie, and the ice cream has never disappointed. Great location! Not cash only anymore! Love that you can do drive thru. read more

I finally tried this place out and ordered their flurry with cookie dough and brownie bites in it which was absolutely divine! This flurry puts all other flurry making establishments to shame for one reason: I was able to eat toppings on the bottom of my cup, not just having the bottom of the cup with ice cream and no toppings. They perfectly blended everything together for an overall amazing flurry. I can't wait to come back here! read more

The Silver Dairy is one of those places that never gets old. It's a great place for gathering with friends after a school event like a band or orchestra concert. Young or old, there is something for everyone there. To draw you in (like ice cream in general isn't enough), Moolinda is the cow that studiously stands watch and gladly accepts rides from any person. (Not a real cow, though. Don't get your hopes up). They serve soft serve ice cream, Guernsey hard ice cream, sugar comes, waffle cones, sundaes, malts, slushes, flurries, and much more. read more

We wanted to have an ice-cream at 9:30 in the night. Everyone who actually went through this will know how hard it is to find a place open at that hour!! I had a soft ice cream cone which is very delicious..Will definitely come back here!! read more

I don't get it. There's constantly lines of people here to get ice cream in the summer time, but it is so mediocre. It's grocery store quality ice cream, which of course can still be satisfying, but that's not why I go to an ice cream shop for. Very dissappointed. read more

Went here to try their edible cookie dough and was not impressed. It was not sweet enough. The Cookie Monster flavor was better than the chocolate chip. I ordered mine with ice cream, but was disappointed to find that the soft serve didn't have much of a vanilla taste. It mostly tasted like plain ice. I prefer real, hard ice cream over soft serve, but thought this could've been better. read more
