Stopped by for a quick evening treat. This place is a cool little spot and good for a small hangout. The ice cream flavor of the day was a apple crisp which I had, with a scoop vanilla. I added a drizzle of caramel and some pecans for crunch. The vanilla was very smooth, and everything was delicious. The only complaint is that I wish more flavors were offered, as they only carry vanilla and chocolate and whatever the flavor of the day is. read more

In the area and this place showed up under "hot and new" I highly recommend if you're in the area. They only have 3 flavors: vanilla, chocolate and flavor of the day. The custard is rich and creamy. Decent selection of toppings and they have pies and pints for to go orders. I'll be back when I'm in the area again! read more

This place is a gem and I am not the only one who loves it. Look how crowded it was this evening! The owner is great and always there. If you like espresso then you must get the Affogato. It is to die for. We have been multiple times and will keep coming back! read more

Wow!! This place is so good. They have these things called Poffertjes, which are little pancakes that are so good w ice cream! They have a different flavor of the day everyday. Caramel corn was the flavor of the day when we stopped by and it was delicious!! Will definitely be back! read more

This place is awesome! The flavors they bring to the area are amazing. The owners/staff are all super nice folks. It's extremely clean, sleek & inviting. I'd recommend this to anyone. Oh, and my folks drink decaf coffee and said they had the best they've ever had. read more

Really creamy custard! I'm from the Midwest so I've tried lots of good frozen custard and this place is definitely on my top list! The special flavor is made everyday and they sell the leftovers the next day in pints. They also have plain chocolate and vanilla. Ive tried the chocolate and it was amazing! Not too sweet and perfectly creamy! They also have pecan topping which I love and it's not too common in most ice cream places so there's a bonus point. Besides how good their custard is, the owner was very nice and extremely generous. The interior is really cute and I would definitely recommend this place! One tip: i would check their website for their daily special but their chocolate was amazing too! read more

The affogato is so delicious! The woman behind the counter was so sweet and answered all of our questions. Such a good spot to come for a treat! read more

Super friendly and the custard is fantastic! Make sure you look at the flavor of the day before going. This was our first time and didn't realize they rotated flavors everyday- should have looked at that before. read more

This is my favorite food place in Atlanta. The ice cream is always awesome, and the concept is pure, decadent evil from a "watch what you eat" perspective, because every new flavor experiment lures me back for more and more delicious, calorie-dense ice cream. Sometimes I feel like the chef is saying, "I dare you to try my lavender mint ice cream and not tell me it's the best thing you've eaten all week." More than once, I've thought, "That's it, this is the flavor, they're going to stop this crazy experimenting and add this flavor to their daily offering because it's too good to not make every day" (yes, I'm talking about Sweet Potato, or Cookie Monster, or Reindeer Tracks). But then, no, the next time I go back, it's something new and equally if not more delicious. If you live in Atlanta and haven't been to Southern Custard, you should go today, and tomorrow, and the next day... read more

The affogato is amazing!!! It is custard cover in espresso (toppings can be added). I topped mine with Heath Bar and almonds.

When here for the first time last night and we loved it! The The custard was so delicious. I had the special chocolate peanut butter flavor and topped it with hot fudge and Reese's butter cups and it was out of this world. My better half had their version of a DQ blizzard and they even offered us us a pup cup of plain vanilla for our dog which he loved. We are new to the neighborhood and will be back very soon! read more

Best custard in Atlanta. Great owners. I drive from midtown to support them and get the best custard in the Southeast. The place is spotless and the service is great. They even have a loyalty program. read more

I love this place! I take my son every Friday now. It's different than other local ice cream places, I'm not sure if that has something to do with the "custard" part or what, but it's yummy! They always have vanilla (way better than traditional vanilla) and chocolate (yum) and a flavor of the day. It has a few Italian-inspired ice cream menu items: affogado (ice cream and espresso), espresso, along with sundaes, and shakes/malts and regular cones. They also have plenty of toppings to add and kids' sizes. The place is open air which very nice on a sunny day. read more

This is a fantastic place...reminds me of Ted Drewe's in St Louis. Had the small Concrete and it delivered big. Quality product and a quaint setting. Recommend. read more

Found this place after checking yelp reviews for desserts in the area. Did not disappoint. The friendly, attentive service was such a bonus. We had the Poffertjes with caramel sauce sprinkled with powdered sugar and the Affogato with chocolate custard. Enjoyed these unexpected additions as we were just looking for plain custard. Can't wait to go back. read more

This is the best frozen custard I've found in Atlanta. I lived 16 years in St. Louis, home to Ted Drewes frozen custard, the best on the planet. Southern Custard ain't Ted Drewes, but it's close enough for Atlanta. read more

We tried the chocolate milk shake and it's the best I had in Atlanta since I moved from NY and my husband tried the chocolate vanilla custard and he says it was delicious. They also have a especial flavor every day!! Awesome!! Do not miss it! We'll be back. The manager was super nice as well. read more

Very excited about our visit to Southern Custard! Took the kids in today and they have amazing chocolate Custard! The owner Matt and his wife are very friendly. Great local business to support! read more

Wow! Came here tonight and had the Brown Sugar Cinnamon special flavor. Holy cow. It was so fresh. You won't find this quality at your other ice cream shops. Highly recommend Southern Custard. read more

Great custard! tried the chocolate and strawberry shortcake and both were mind-blowingly good! Good prices too. Must visit and highly recommended! read more

Is there anything more tasty?! I cannot say enough great things about this place. And there is no way to describe their product. Read their facebook page on their background. Their product (to me) is a cross between ice cream, gelato and soft serve. And the taste... WOW! Amazement in your mouth and taste buds. They have a lot of different ways to serve you their two flavors (vanilla and chocolate) and there is a daily flavor. I am a fan of the fruit flavors and anything with cinnamon. Go, you will not be dissapointed! read more

Extremely creamy, flavorful ice cream! Since it was my first visit I had vanilla, but I did sample chocolate and blackberry and they were both delicious! If I lived closer to Southern Custard I would eat their ice cream every day. They even have ice cream pies which looked amazing. I highly recommend Southern Custard! read more

Cute place with delicious custard. They always have chocolate and vanilla and each day of the month they have a special flavor. I would certainly recommend you checking out this place if you're in the mood for custard. read more

Been to this location a few times. The staff is very nice and the restaurant is very clean. The custard is tasty just wish they also offered milkshakes. I hope the restaurant does well long term as it's a great location! read more

No more than 4 flavors? Really? Menchies and Frosty Caboose are much better Chamblee choices. Southern Custard charged $3.75 for a tiny 3 ounce scoop in a cup. I was shocked when I saw what I got for $3.75. I can't see this place surviving in this business climate. Sorry Southern Custard. Even Racetrack frozen yogurt is a better deal. read more

My husband and I happen to be in Atlanta celebrating our anniversary and dinner was kind of a busy so my husband turned to Yelp for a dessert spot and luckily found this gem. The poffertjes caught my husband's eye and I've always loved gelato but gave up hope of good gelato since we've left Europe. We really enjoyed driving through the Brookhaven area on our way there, it's a beautiful area with cute neighborhoods. The staff was very warm and welcoming even though they were very busy on a Sunday evening. My husband had the poffertjes with a couple half scoops and a caramel topping and I had the special flavor of the day, Oreo Mint gelato. The quality and flavor of their gelato is so amazing and takes me back to Europe. It's not sugary or full of artificial flavors, just pure flavors, creamy and incredibly delicious. Some days I still think of this Mint Oreo and am definitely tempted drive back again! read more

Custard - simple and delicious. Standard chocolate and vanilla flavors, but beyond standard quality of frozen custard. Today's special flavor was caramel apple. I got the affogato (vanilla with a shot of espresso poured over top) with zero regrets, delicious! On top of that, the man who greeted us and explained the menu (our first time here) was just downright delightful and very helpful. Recommend recommend recommend! read more

Best Dessert in town! 3 Flavors. Chocolate, Vanilla, and flavor of the day. So good you don't need more choices. Excited that this place is close by. read more

They just have 3 flavors per day,chocolate and vanilla everyday and one flavor of the day! Big portion and good service! Definitely come back!! read more

The ice cream is exceptional. I was hoping for a little more than a vanilla milkshake that taste mostly like... milk! And they were insulted when asked if they add vanilla flavoring. Sorry, but even the delicious flavor of your ice cream is not strong enough to stop that from being a tall glass of milk. read more

This place is tasty! I'm from St. Louis where we LOVE frozen custard, especially Ted Drew's, and this place reminded me of home :) If you've never had frozen custard, you are missing out! You've got to try it. It's so delicious and creamy! The staff is nice too. read more

We LOVE going to Southern Custard! Friendly & fast service, delicious flavors! And if you miss a daily flavor you really wanted, you just might find it in a pint (or 2 or 3....) to take home! read more

Coming here on a hot summer day is a must! I have never really tried custard before but I must say that I am in love with it now all thanks to Southern Custard. It was so creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. The store was really simple with the decorations and the menu as well. The offer the basic flavor which is chocolate and vanilla. They also have a flavor of the day which changes everyday for the whole month. The day I went they offered pistachio. We went with a regular vanilla custard paired with fresh strawberries for the hint of tartness. Also ordered a root beer float so we could hydrate while getting out sugar craving! Everything tastes so amazing and so glad that we came across this place on Yelp! Would totally recommend this place to everyone and try the flavor of the day because it was truly delicious. The standard of custard everywhere must match this place or else I will be disappointed in the future. read more

Service was excellent. Staff was friendly and quick. The custard was really great as well. It's not too overwhelming with options, they keep it simple and tasty. read more

Great custard! Lots of fun toppings. Lots of seating indoors and out. They only have one location but not for long!

It's been a number of months and many pints later so I'm updating my review. It's a hallmark of a place to be consistent and that's exactly what Southern Custard delivers: beautiful, delicious, consistent ice cream. Personally, I think it's one of the best ice creams in the world. Truly. I challenge you to find a creamier, thicker, more luscious ice cream. I don't buy any other ice cream any longer; it's just disappointing. It's better to wait and have the best. read more
