Sat at a table, waited 15-mintues with a 3-year old while they continued to serve ice cream to anyone and everyone who walked in. Would not recommend sitting down to eat at Aglamesis. read more

Best Ice cream ever on a Waffle Cone. Service was fast and very friendly. Ambiance takes you back in time in addition, extremely clean!!

The ice cream is decent. I thought it was good, but it wasn't worth the price. The black raspberry chocolate chip here is nothing compared to Graeter's and I found the ice cream to have actual ice in it a little. Overall, it's okay, but not somewhere I'd highly recommend. read more

Living in Cincinnati made me a dairy snob. My opinion of ice cream changed dramatically after years of college which was fueled by large doses of Graeter's. So, I know my frozen desserts. Aglamesis Bros is like time traveling back to the 1950s or 60s. A pink paradise of small, white tables and wacky wallpaper, the decor and the menu make all ages happy. I've visited with my friends and their kids, with my mom, and, most recently, on a girls' night out. Everyone left with smiles on their faces and money still in their pockets. The marble counter, glass candy displays, and old fashioned recipes are a welcome flashback to a simpler time. You can get things like rum raisin ice cream, Mayfield brownies (which are like hunks of nutty fudge), and caramel apples all served up by friendly folks. Prices are so low that our trio of ladies ate ourselves silly for less than $13. The berry ice was fruity and refreshing. The vanilla float was creamy and frothy. And my turtle sundae was rich and delicious. I love coming here and sharing this special pace with my friends, family, and the next generation of Cincinnati, ice cream connoisseurs. read more

Best chocolates anywhere! All made at their Oakley store with the best ingredients money can buy! They sellout quickly for a reason. Opera Cream Easter Eggs are incomparable! read more

My favorite ice cream parlor anyway. Even better than Zaharakos in Columbus, IN. The ambiance isn't quite as good, but the ice cream itself is second to none. You gotta try the peach. They have old fashioned sundaes that are super indulgent and super tasty. Think metal bowls. Everything is pink and tiled, and it is still owned by the original family. They also have really nice homemade candy. This is a throwback to century old Greek ice cream parlors. I hope it is around forever. read more

Hands down my go to Cincinnati ice cream joint. I have never had a bad experience. Their ice cream is something I crave whenever I'm wanting a sweet treat. They have homemade candies as well! I've been a customer for over ten years and Graters has nothing on Aglamesis! read more

Aglamesis is truly one of a kind. Everything from the ice cream to the handmade chocolates are incredible. The staff is always friendly and the Aglamesis family is wonderful. Their Oakley store has such a special charm and is fun for all ages. read more

The ice cream is super good o recommend the strawberry ice cream I did not try the chocolate but the service is amazing it is clean and nice inside read more

The ice cream and candies are delicious! The shop is adorable and looks adorable in pink and white. I totally fell for the fake dropped ice cream cone on the ground, and for a second I was very sad that someone dropped such delicious ice cream! read more

I'm not a big fan of ice cream (lactose girl) but they had the BEST Strawberry Sorbet ive ever had! Like so good I could have had two bowls instead of just my one scoop bowl. I also looooove the décor in this place. It takes you back to the old days (like 1940's) ice cream shops where someone actually takes your order when dining in. So cute! I haven't had any of the candies yet but its sure to be on my list for my next trip! read more

I'm an Aglamesis fan, I moved to Oakley several years ago so I could be close to their amazing ice cream. Walking in the front door and the aroma of handmade chocolate is incredible for all chocoholics like me and Double Chocolate Chip ice cream with belgian chocolate is the best! Even better is the sundae with hot fudge and raspberry sauce which you can enjoy with the double chocolate chip ice cream heaven on earth! read more

I love this place and their ice cream and the chocolates. It obviously has genuine retro charm and an awesome neighborhood feel. My great grandparents met here... stories like mine are not in short supply. I love the swiss red raspberry add hot fudge. For something more classic, a nectar shake is perfect. Visiting this place is a treat in more ways than one. You'll definitely feel pampered and you'll feel like you've taken a vacation, but instead of traversing miles you'll have traveled time. read more

Aglamesis Bros is a pretty good ice cream spot. Their ice cream is decent but it is not as good as Graeter's. When I tasted it I was like meh ok it's good but I wasn't super wowed as I am with eating Graeter's. They also do not have a large selection of ice creams. I'm use to ice cream shops having 20+ options they have 17 flavors with a few Italian Ice flavors. Their flavors are also pretty basic (I.e. Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Strawberry Chocolate Chip, Mint Chocolate Chip, Banana Ice Cream, Banana Chocolate Chip, Etc.). This is not a big deal as I usually only order 2 flavors ever. I just wanted to state that to give people a heads up. They also are a chocolate candy shop. I tried one scoop of Cream-n-Cookies. It was pretty good. The ice cream had a nice texture and creaminess. I only had one little chunk of Oreo. I would have definitely liked more cookie chucks. It tasted like your standard cookies and cream. No big complaints but no real super brags either. Overall, Aglamesis Bros isn't bad and has good ice cream. While I did enjoy their ice cream I probably will continue to go to Graeter's. read more

Absolutely fantastic... I love the seasonal ice cream. Could not decide between eggnog and pumpkin and both are outstanding. Being seated inside is like being transported back to a different era ... great vibe and setup. Highly recommend. read more

Ice cream is fair but the rudeness of the owner is enough to keep me from returning. Amazed people can be so rude and expect customers to come back. Visit at your own risk. We won't be back for sure. read more

This place is SO cute. When you come in, you are immediately transported to the old days. You can order your ice cream to go or dine in, where someone takes your orders. If you do dine in, they serve you with a glass of water. About the ice cream: my favorite is the strawberry. I generally pair with with a different flavor each time (e.g., coconut, banana) to switch it up when I get the sundae. So good! read more

Delicious options. Welcoming service. Informative employee. Great first experience. I am definitely coming back and bringing my family!

Beautiful hidden gem! Retro vibe, kind employees, and delicious treats. Menu is wide variety so everyone is sure to find a favorite. Classic banana splits, rich Dutch chocolate with marshmallow, or my personal favorite raspberry sorbet... you'll need to make multiple visits to try it all. read more

Probably one of the top 5 ice cream joints I've ever been to! Mom and Pop is an understatement!

Absolutely love this place! I've been going here since my dad first took me when I was 10 years old. It is an authentic old-fashioned ice cream parlor that has been around since the 1920s. They have beautiful marble-topped tables and wire-backed chairs, and the place smells like chocolate! I always get the two-step hot fudge sundae, which comes with French vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, fresh whipped cream, and nuts. They also have delicious shakes and ice cream sodas. This is a great place to bring kids (big ones, too!) for a yummy dessert. read more

Hot take from a Cincinnati born and bred guy, but the ice cream here is better than Graeter's! It's for sure more creamy in nature, but I enjoy it more. 20+ flavors, plus there's chocolates and candy in the location as well. My only gripe (which isn't much of one) is that I can't buy the ice cream at Kroger anymore! read more

It's literally like going back to the 1950s when you step into this place. Love ice cream parlors like that. You can tell they have been around for years. I always get the french vanilla with a waffle cone. Prices are fair and affordable. They have a lot where you can park at. Great place to take your kids during the summer. Check them out read more

Delicious treats and ice creams! Great friendly service. Huge selection. Everything tasted fresh and dreamy!

The champagne sorbet is worth the trip by far. The double chocolate chocolate chip is awesome too. This time warp if a place is worth checking out and having a special treat. My understanding is that this is the one and only location, and it's a very cool place worth visiting. read more

What an absolute gem. Not only is Aglameis Bros the most adorably decorated ice cream shop in the area, but the ice cream is amazing. Everything is very old fashioned, simple, and tasty. If you sit inside there will be a staff member to take your order and bring you ice cream and there is ample seating indoors. If you prefer to take it outside or to go you can order at the counter. Definitely stay! We both had a sundae and they were all sorts of amazing. The portions are just right and everything was sweet and delicious. The employees working were so kind and friendly, it made the entire experience so wonderful! read more

So glad I discovered this cute little gem today! I have an uncontrollable sweet tooth, so a visit to a good dessert spot like this one is enough to make my day! Walking in takes you back in time - it's like walking into an ice cream parlor from the 50's (or is it a blast even further into the past? Either way...you get the picture). The pink wallpaper and heart shaped chairs only add to the sugary cuteness of it all. You can ask to sample the many different flavors of ice cream. I couldn't come to one decision, so I ordered a scoop of French vanilla ice cream as well as a scoop of the champagne sorbet. Both were wonderful - the French vanilla was rich and creamy, and the sorbet was refreshing and tart. Next time I come back, I'll probably go for the homemade chocolates, as I hear they are a real treat as well! read more

If you're in Cincinnati and looking for ice cream, there are two great local options that people mostly go to: Graeter's and Aglamesis. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with either, but I prefer Aglamesis. Aglamesis has a great ambiance that brings you right back to the pre-1950's soda shop and ice cream parlor. The pink decor, marble countertops, and old school lighting has a *wow* factor that basically transports you to Cincinnati in the early 1900's. This place is over 100 years old, so just for nostalgia reasons you really should check it out! The ice cream sundaes are really good. I love their hot fudge, so any of the ones with hot fudge are great. But my favorite thing to order here is their champagne sorbet. Their sorbet has a much creamier, softer texture than any other sorbet I've ever had...It truly is one of a kind. Their milkshakes are just ok in my opinion. I absolutely love that they serve all of their dishes in cute silver cups that look like they've been in use for 50 years. Service is good. If you're dining in, just grab one of the tables in the back and a waitress will come take your order! Prices are a little high, but fair. Love this place! read more

Aglamesis ice cream parlor is ESSENTIAL for a visit to Cincinnati. Growing up, this was one of my favorite ice cream places in town. Yes Graeters is good, but Aglamesis should be getting as much hype! What's not to love about an old-fashioned soda shop decorated parlor. There is only one location! The tiled floor and old lighting fixtures are gorgeous. The little wrought iron parlor chairs and tables really make it. You can also sit on the stools at the gorgeous marble counter. They sell ice cream , sundaes, and milkshakes, but also have a candy counter with various chocolates and candy specialties. What are you waiting for!!!!!!!! GO! read more

I have had a blast comparing malted milk balls from all around the country with eight friends of mine over four years of getting together for a few days. This year someone brought both dark and milk chocolate versions . I won't mention all the varieties we have tried, but it's pretty extensive . Yours were fabulous ! Thank you and keep up the good work! read more

It's really hard for me for some reason to review my favorite places. I guess I feel like, in words, I could never do these places justice to how amazing they are. Aglamesis Bros is one of those places. I fell in love with Aglamesis Bros before I even ate there. Two years before I even moved down to Cincinnati I was at a concert at the 21st Century Theater and when walking back to my car this little ice cream shop caught my eye with its gold lettering in the window and it's pastels inside the background. I never forgot about it. Then two years later when I moved down to Cincinnati, my boyfriend and I went on one of our first dates at Aglamesis Bros. When we walked in I was in "Awe", it made me think of "The Umbrellas Of Cherbourg", and that movie is what my heart and head look like inside. Haha. My top three favorite things to get at Aglamesis is. 1. Champagne Sorbet (Italian Ice), you will never have a better sorbet in your life. I also really enjoy getting one scoop of Champagne Sorbet, and one scoop of Raspberry Sorbet. They compliment each other and are amazing. 2. Sodas, Old school style soda's. My favorite thing to do suggest to my guess to try one out. They usually pick "Extra Sincere" and I love seeing their face when they bring out the giant goblet out to the table. Always funny. 3. Sundaes, Any of their sundaes, with crushed fruit topping is my favorite. The pineapple is really good, but my favorite is the Maraschino Cherry Chocolate Sundae. They also have amazing homemade chocolates and candies. The Malt Balls are my favorite. If you ever want to just try a candy that you are unsure of, they will let you taste it too. During the holidays, you can always go in here and find plenty of candy goodies. Valentines Day, even though I don't celebrate it. I do love seeing the assortment of heart-shaped candy boxes you can pick out of, and you get to pick what candies you want them too. Easter is another holiday they go all out for. The service is also always top notch here. Everyone is always ridiculous nice and helpful. I also think it's amazing that my boyfriend lost my American Apparel hoodie, we couldn't find it for a year and then one day we were at Aglamesis and I was walking back to the bathroom, and low and behold on the wall hanging up on their coat rack was my hoodie that I've had for almost ten years. They kept my hoodie that I lost that whole time. I love LOVE, love Aglamesis Bros. They have perfected ice cream. They are my favorite ice cream place ever. read more

My favorite ice cream in the entire world. I love their black raspberry chocolate chip!!

Maybe unpopular opinion, but I love their icecreams more than Graeter's. Tried sea salt caramel chocolate too, it was amazing!

I have not been here in a few years, but my grandfather used to take my grandma here when he was courting her back in the 1920's, and then he took his kids in the 1930's and 40's ( my mamma and her sisters) and then they took all of us cousins ( in the 60's until the present). . Now we take our kids.Four generations of Cincinnati descended German kiddos, we love this Greek ice cream place and it's hard cookies, yummy chocolate confections, and it's frozen delicacies. This is the stuff old fashioned ice cream parlor dreams are made of. My mamma used to get marshmallow sundaes here with vanilla ice cream, but I leaned towards hot fudge myself, even in my teeny tiny beginnings. The peach ice cream doesn't really Go with hot fudge, so I always talked some poor cousin into it so I could have a bite. Yum. read more

My bother was coming to town and I asked him if there was anything he wanted to do. He checked Yelp, and asked me if Cincinnati really has this many ice cream and butcher shops. I replied that they do. He said this was the ice cream place he wanted to try. I had the banana chip on a waffle cone. My hubby got a sundae and since he doesn't like nuts, got them on the side and gave them to me. Banana chip ice cream with walnuts on top was great. If the banana flavor had been bumped up just a little it would have been perfect. My hubby thought the pineapple mint sauce was far better then the black raspberry chocolate chip ice cream. He said "the ice cream and whipped cream made my mouth feel like I had been licking butter." The kids scoops of ice cream come with the option of chocolate or rainbow sprinkles. My brother said it was nice. A fun experience. The decor was adorable. Think old fashioned ice cream parlor. To go orders may be ordered at the counter, or have a seat, and a waiter will bring out a menu. They also have a wide array of chocolates and candies. This would be perfect for a date or even a little girl's birthday (if they do that.) Coming here and Blue Manatee bookstore a few doors down would be a great outing for a young child. read more

Aglamesis Bros - A friday evening - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I'm a huge Graeter's fan. Huge. And that's not going to change. But I couldn't not try another Cincinnati ice cream. I take ice cream very seriously and need to investigate all options. I orderd the brownie a la mode. But instead of one boring scoop of vanilla ice cream, I ordered once scoop of Black Raspberry Chip and Strawberry Chip. I usually don't get brownie sundaes at ice cream shops because I take brownies just as seriously as I take ice cream. And at most ice cream places the brownies are an after thought. They hope you won't notice that their sub-par brownie is cakey and dry because they've put their delicious ice cream on top. Well, that is certainly not the case here. Their brownies are so amazing that they are sold on their own. The consistency of this brownie is similar to fudge - super dense and rich. In my book, that's perfect. So smothering it in ice cream takes my dessert experience to a whole new level. Now, the ice cream. If ice cream doesn't have chocolate chips, I'm probably not interested. This would explain why I love Graeter's as much as I do. And obviously, no one could possibly out do their chocolate chips. All other chocolate chips are average or even unacceptable next to Graeter's. That being said, Aglamesis chocolate chips are strongly decent. Well done. Based on the three flavors I tasted, Aglamesis ice cream definitely isn't as creamy as Graeter's or as creamy as I prefer my ice cream to be. However, it wasn't at all icy - it was perfectly smooth. And it had great flavor. The Strawberry Chip was probably my favorite, but the Black Raspberry Chip was definitely yummy as well. But I can't say I was crazy about the Double Chocolate chip. It wasn't quite rich enough for my tastes and the lack creaminess just didn't do it for me. All in all, Aglamesis is awesome and I will definitely go back and I will definitely get the Brownie a la Mode again. Probably with Strawberry Chip! read more

How stinkin CUTE. I loved the happy, cheeky vibe of Algamesis Bros, and it smelled absolutely divine in there. Both of our cones were scrumptious, and I wish we'd picked out some chocolates to go! It took us a little bit to figure out the menu, but after you untangle the setup it is really rather simple! Despite some order confusion with who was in line first, they were very willing to share advice and samples with us and ultimately I was so happy with the ice creams we picked out. I will be back for sure! read more
