When I saw a Facebook announcement about the opening of a new frozen custard shop in Grovetown I was excited! I inquired if they would be serving my favorite flavor: Strawberry Butter. The owner wrote back and ask if I had this flavor at The Armadillo in South Dakota. I had, but had never seen it anywhere else. I was so excited when I got a message saying they were churning Strawberry Butter today and asking me to come taste it and let them know if it they got it right. We stopped by this evening to try it and to my delight, they got it absolutely right! The sweet girls who waited on us said they had been waiting all day for me to come by and gave me the container to enjoy at home. My grandson ordered a Reeses sundae which he proclaimed "better than DQ". My friend Sally from Vermont who loves "a softee" got a vanilla cone and said it may be the best frozen custard she's ever had! The shop is bright and clean. They have walk up window and cute play ice cream parlor for the littles to practice becoming future ice cream makers. Please go by the Meadows and try their delicious frozen custards, gelatos, and Italian ices. They also have some cafe items and are adding nachos to the menu. I need everyone to support them so they can keep making Strawberry Butter! read more

Used to love this spot, but now it's sub-par. We buy the quarts and take them home. There are still some enjoyable flavors at times, but the majority of experiences are misses. For example, Georgia peach had good flavor, but a quart of peanut butter Oreo had like maybe ~5 total whole Oreos mixed throughout it. Peanut butter banana had little flavor according to my husband. Disappointing. All 3 recent pints we have bought were not filled well. They are scooped into and not pressed to remove air. Due to this, ice crystallizes on the scoops of custard, and we get a decent amount less than we used to. This has not been a one-off experience, and had never happened up until recently. (The custard used to be packaged like a standard ice cream tub; you take off the top lid and the contents are all level at the top of the container.) Due to this combination of negatives; even on flavors that we enjoy, we don't get as much as we hoped we would and they get covered in ice (this happened to our quart of Georgia Peach). If the special flavors of the day that have mix-ins get a better amount of mix-ins and if the containers start to be filled better again we will be going more often. Until then we will not be going frequently. We like this business and want to support it, so I am really hoping things change for the better. Will update with a review if there are positive changes. read more

I used to enjoy coming here weekly, but lately its been going down hill. This is a freshly given size medium vanilla custard swirl with cookie dough. I was given a cup (not filled) with custard and a scoop of toppings placed on top. Not swirled throughout. Seriously considering this being my last time going. read more

Stopped by The Meadows on a hot day after dinner and it hit the spot! We were greeted as soon as we walked in, and even though the place was empty, the service was warm and friendly. Loved the cute seating areas, and the ice cream was absolutely delicious--definitely helped me cool off. Will be back for sure! read more

I'm retracting my 5 star review. New management/owner and the custard is not at all the same. It's very airy now to the point that we felt bloated afterwards from just a small serving. I had hoped it was just a calibration type problem and do I got a quart to take home and it was the same. read more

This is your typical Custard place but instead of the custard coming out of the ice cream machine it's in a cooler in a tub. I ordered the chocolate custard in a small cup and it was good and there was a ton of it. The pricing was great and it tasted just as nice #ChocolateCustard #IceCreamDelight read more

If you enjoy Rita's, you'll definitely enjoy the gelato here. My friend and I couldn't decide which flavors to get so we got two gelatos. Each gelato has a layer of custard and Italian ice. We got one with cherry Italian ice paired with chocolate custard and another with mango Italian ice with vanilla custard. Of the two, the chocolate custard definitely was better, so I highly recommend that. It wasn't overly sweet and the pairing with the Italian ice really made each bite savory. There are few tables to dine in, but seems like most people order to go. The service was fantastic; the young staff working there were very helpful is explaining first timers like us what everything was. It was quiet and an enjoyable atmosphere at night to hang out and enjoy some gelato. They do close at 9pm on most days, so just be mindful of their hours being different from the weekend time which is 10pm. Highly recommend. We wanted to come back 2 days later but by the time we finished dinner, it was few minutes till closing. That means we will be back! read more

After a date lunch, this is our favorite place to hang out before heading back to work. The custard, in my opinion, is better than ice cream. The flavors are richer and the texture is more smooth--think exceptionally high quality soft serve. The mix-ins (today was butterfingers) are evenly spread throughout, not clumped or on top. Today the ratio of candy to custard was just right. Not too much of either. The restaurant is very kid-friendly, with a playpen and toys for the younger children and board games for the older ones. They have a changing table with some emergency diapers, if you need them (very surprised by that!) I was also pleased to note that they serve my favorite local coffee roaster, Goat Kick Coffee. I haven't tried their espresso drinks, so no comments on that, but they do have coffee if you'd like that to go with your dessert. read more

Been wanting to try this place out on a hot day and that day happened to be today, and I sure am glad I did. Brought the whole family in and luckily it wasn't crowded, I ended up getting the Turtle favorite that they have, minus the pecans and wow! It was so good and smooth it was like clouds but better, because there was caramel and that just makes everything better... caramel is essentially the bacon of desserts There are a few tables so plenty of seats and if you are bringing any little ones they have this little house with all the ice cream toy essentials so kids like my daughter can serve her "customers" while we wait for our treats to arrive. If you're ever in Grovetown and craving a sweet treat check this spot out, will not disappoint! Next time I'm going to be leaving with one of those espresso shakes! read more

Anytime I go I am met at the drive thru with a nice smile. The Custard itself is hands down amazing and I love when I'm in Grovetown just so I can stop by Meadows. read more

The custard in this place is insanely delicious !! The strawberry shortcake is my favorite & the customer service is always excellent

Cute little ice cream polar. The ice cream was good and you're given a decent serving size. Coffee milkshake was amazing! Younger workers working in the back but they provided amazing service. read more

We love ice cream and Meadows is our child's favorite. They love the gelato. Great prices, great sizes, and friendly staff.

Danielle is the greatest, I'm a regular here but this time the customer service was over the top. Super accommodating and helpful. I highly appreciate you guys read more

We've been a few more times because my daughter really likes the little play house they have inside, and I actually have no complaints. I've been following their facebook page and pick which days we try to get out there based on what their flavors of the day are. I've noticed that if you don't want to go inside, they have a walk up window next to the front doors which is super neat. If you don't want to get out of the car, feel free to utilize their drive thru. When you order in the drive thru, you'll pull up to the window and order face to face versus a speaker box. I like how they want to keep everything at face value. I've recently tried their caramel espresso shake, and holy smokes is it amazing. You get the nice espresso flavor shining through, but it isn't too over powering and the shake isn't overly sweet either. I'd recommend trying it! We've also tried their cappuccino chocolate chunk affogato style and it's pretty much my favorite. And their regular turtle custard is very smooth and velvety. I can happily say the pecans you do get in this aren't super salty. We've recently met the owner, and learned that they use to work at one 20 years ago. He said he figured they'd bring their favorite ice cream shop to Grovetown and share it with everyone else. I'm glad they did because we missed it. We'll be back throughout the summer, whether it'd be for the espresso shakes, affogato, or just some custard! read more

Stopped in for a sweet treat right when they opened at 12. Service was super quick! The small gelati was definitely filling for a single person. I got the root beer Italian ice and vanilla custard. The root beer flavor was amazing and I loved how creamy the custard was. Definitely recommend coming here! read more

The Italian ice was great and it was very clean the workers were also very nice and caring

Honestly Meadows Frozen Custard has the best ice cream in the area. Besides Culver's I would love to try the custard here. So far I tried the frozen coffee or a coffee ice cream I forgot what it was but it was really wonderful especially the caramel kind. I have no regrets it would be nice to find many restaurants that actually serve custard. One of my really go to places in Grovetown. read more

I kept seeing this pop up and we drove by one day, so we decided to add it to the list. It was too hot & too late for coffee, so I decided to try the turtle. My husband got the normal turtle with vanilla, I got the turtle with chocolate. It was topped and swirled with nuts, hot fudge and caramel! Really great choice. I will be back to try some of their other items. read more

We had a fantastic time here! My kids had requested ice cream on Christmas Eve. As many of you know, not many stores are open on a holiday. The owner was incredibly friendly and we got to sample some flavors before ordering. We thoroughly enjoyed the Italian ice and will try the custard next time. Definitely give this place a try! As my kids said, "we will be back". read more

There is this beautiful dessert that some have no clue about that is frozen custard. They will compare it much the way people compare iced coffee and cold brew, "it's the same thing right?" No, no it's not. Frozen custard is so rich, so creamy, so life alternating in relation to ice cream that they should not be sold within a mile of each other. Just my opinion on that. It was a Saturday afternoon when I found myself in the Grovetown area and remembered High Meadows had opened. It was rainy and Mother's Day weekend so I expected it to not be busy. I still opted for the drive-through, as our two furry ones were in the back seat. Looking at the menu, I was overwhelmed with glee. I wanted everything. Vanilla frozen custard, Oreo's crushed in the custard, custard infused with espresso. But alas I showed restraint. I went with the Arctic Swirl, with Oreo's. Imagine your favorite candy bar or cookie, only frozen and twice as good. I will mention that you pull up to the window to order (as most are set up with ordering and pickup separate), but that's fine with me. I also received a Buy One, Get One free card. I was coming back already, but now I really am. If you are a cone lover, you can save the wrapper off 10 cones and you get the 11th one free. Sounds like I need to schedule more frozen custard in my life. The team was super friendly. I will mention that they are at the far end of a strip of stores (in case GPS is slightly off) and you have to pull around the back of the building to get in the drive-through line. Parking might get tight as the store spaces fill up, but I'll make it work. If you try it, you will too. read more

I'm not normally a fan of frozen custard but this place is amazing! I took some friends and we did frozen custard, sundaes, shaved ice, and coffee. All the things we ordered came out great! Inexpensive for the quality of food and drink. They also have a little play house which is great for the little kids. Bathrooms are clean and store is clean. Definitely worth the visit! Also, they are very philanthropic and are community centered. read more

I had seen the signs for this shop coming for a while and I knew they would be great, since we had one back in Maryland. We walked in and were greeted nicely right from the start. I brought my 2 children and they loved it because there was a little play house for them to enjoy. I ordered them both baby custards (size isn't included on the menu) and my daughter wanted strawberry, they blended hers up with strawberry and added whip cream for no addition charge. I also ordered 2 espresso shakes one caramel, and one White Chocolate. They initially made the wrong item, they made 2 hot lattes with the right flavors. They instantly apologized for the error and remade them no problem, I did not mind waiting since my kids were happy playing in the little play house. Overall we will probably be here at least once a week, there is a lot to try on the menu! read more

Very excited about my first visit today. The window staff was very cheerful, polite and smiling. I used the drive thru option and was excited to learn one of the custard flavors of the day was Banana! One of my favorite dessert flavors. I ordered a medium size in a cup. It was pure heaven lol. Cold, Creamy, Rich and Tasty. It was so smooth and fresh. It's sooo good that it must be bad lol. I'm definitely visiting again this week for another flavor experience. There needs to be another location opened in the CSRA, I don't want anybody to miss this goodness. read more

First off, the employees and owner are fantastic. Always friendly and greeted with a smile. I would say we get Meadow's just about once a week since they opened. I love all the mixtures, floats, gelato, and sundaes. My favorite is the gelato which has gelato and custard. read more

It's basically an extension of what Culver's has to offer in ice creams. It is delicious, for sure! For first timers, the menu is extremely overwhelming. It was also kind of hard to see unless you view the menu outside. 4 stars because it was legitimately delicious aside from being overwhelming. read more

Best chocolate shake! My niece and nephew love their frozen custard. The frozen custard is so creamy and delicious

The custard (vanilla ) was the creamiest I've ever tasted. Wonderful flavor. I also tried their new flavor, Strawberry Butter, which I previously enjoyed in South Dakota. Great new addition to Grovetown and very friendly and welcoming. read more

We tried the mango gelati and banana shake. The Gelati was so so good. 10/10 would recommend this. The banana shake was a lil disappointment, it lacked flavor however it was made with a real banana. Just tasted like vanilla custard with bits of mushed banana. I hope their other shakes are more impactful but we shall try next time and see! read more

No big review just good ice cream. I go here when I'm looking for a good sundae. They serve frozen custard like Culver's does.

Amazing custard and amazing staff! This is one of my favorite spots! Never too long of a wait and the staff is always super friendly!

My boyfriend and I found this place less than a month ago and LOVE it. I'm a little embarrassed to say that we have now been at least four times in the few weeks since our discovery. I've had their turtle sundae, espresso shake, custard of the day, arctic swirl - they are all FANTASTIC. It never takes long to get your order, and the inside is always very clean (including the restrooms). If it weren't for my boyfriend who actually practices some self-control, I'd probably go a couple times a week... Good thing one of has some willpower. read more

This is a great custard shop! They're very family friendly and have great staff that always goes above and beyond. They have two daily specials and usually have a monthly calendar of what flavors they will be whipping up. The shop is brand new so it is very clean and they have a kiddie area for the young ones to play. My favorite has always been the Italian ice in assorted flavors. They offer shakes and iced coffee as well. They have a drive thru window and a walk up window. They offer military discount. I highly recommend giving them a try! read more
