A new stop I'll be making when in Amherst. Been here twice in 2 days, first for ice cream (delish), and then for lunch (the chili has steak in it, not ground/mince beef!). Many other items I'm looking forward to trying! read more

Anderson's Frozen Custard - Turkey bbq bacon & cheese sandwich and curly fries. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Amherst, New York

Beware of the drive thru ! The worst customer service ever ! There are only certain items on the menu you can order in the drive thru read more

Since this is a local chain near my hotel, I decided to try one of Buffalo's famous beef on weck and some of Anderson's frozen custard all at one location. The sandwich is like some kind of roll with salt chunks on top with roast beef. Pretty good, something new and interesting to try. A little too pricey and barely filling in my opinion. The frozen custard was very delicious though! They had different choices for frozen custard, frozen yogurt, ice cream ... Great place to take your kids out for cheap dessert. I had the chocolate and vanilla swirl frozen custard, which has a thicker consistency than frozen yogurt. Its more of a creamier and richer version of Costco's vanilla-chocolate frozen yogurt swirl, haha. Nothing super amazing. read more

See all

I am really stuck between four and five stars for this establishment. It is extremely clean. Went with my boys for lunch and there was a good size crowd but plenty of seating available. They each got the chicken tender kids meal which was seven dollars apiece. That is pricey but it does come with a free small custard which was the reasoning we chose Anderson's. The reason I was thinking maybe only four stars is because I got the black bean burger which was just a morning star basic burger and it cost almost 7 dollars without any fries or anything. To me that is a little pricey and should come with a side. It was good though so that's why I ultimately went with five stars. If you are looking for a kid friendly lunch or dinner with a large menu choice I would recommend Anderson's. But don't leave without trying the custard read more

Came here while visiting town this month for nostalgia sake. I loved this place growing up, we would go at least once a week! Anderson's was always my favorite and I did prefer the location on Sheridan Blvd over any other. But this is what I was closest to on this particular day. It sure did hit the spot. A twist with rainbow sprinkles was a must have for me and yum! read more

Finally went for the first time today. It was really good! Service was friendly. Food was delicious! The asiago chicken wrap is to die for. The apricot mango whip was a huge hit with our children. I loved all of the cute cakes and ice cream in the front case, reasonably priced as well! They would make a great special occasion gift. I will definitely be back soon! read more

I'm not understanding the andersons band wagon. I stopped going because i never liked it. The other day my daughter and mother stopped by for lunch. The cashier was sweet as can be, but the food was so bland! The chicken tenders were dried out, and the Mac and cheese was clumpy. Unless it's ice cream - I would stay clear. read more

This one is for you, Sam P. I would have NEVER thought to review anything in Buff, and now I find myself trying to make a list of my old time favorites. I don't particularly like sweets. I don't like ice-cream at all. I used to come here multiple times a week despite all that, and not just because I lived a short 10 minute walk away. Ok, I shouldn't lie I used to drive. No one walks in Buff - it's almost as bad as taking the bus. My drug of choice was lemon ice with strawberries. It's like heaven on earth. A cool breeze on a scorching day. A kiss from a beautiful stranger. A Gucci sample sale. Why are you still at your computer? Go! read more

People say go to Anderson's when you are in Buffalo, so when I found myself in Buffalo, I had to give it a try. Frozen Custard is just soft serve ice cream, and honestly, it tasted no different from dairy queen. However, they did have a greek yogurt soft serve which was excellent and an excellent choice and why I gave it 5 stars. The kids who work there couldn't have been nicer. We got there at 10:27, when they closed at 10:30 and they welcomed us and made us feel like they had all the time in the world to serve us. That was the best part! read more

The hard ice cream is homemade and delicious. The custard is great. I so badly want to give it a better rating, but I think the prices are sky high, and it is unbelievable that sundaes don't come with free whipped cream, sprinkles and at least one type of candy? What's the point of calling it a sundae if you just get custard and a sauce... that really makes absolutely no sense to me. That isn't a sundae at all. read more

Best roast beef in town. Good fast counter service. Nice family atmosphere. Fish fry is outstanding. Johnny Ryan sodas (avoid the cola). And of course Ice Cream, which I find a tad pricey, but what the heck Sleeper their hot dogs are as good as Ted's read more

Good ice cream place! We go there pretty often and always get very delicious ice cream for ourselves and our little ones. Never tried their food. I like how they make banana splits and milk shakes! :) read more

I love this location because they have a drive-thru. While I do enjoy going to the one on Sheridan, especially because it's closer, both dogs (past and current) do not like other dogs. So sitting outside is not an option. The drive-thru is very efficient, I've never had to wait and the quality is just as good as if I was ordering inside and sitting down to eat. Staff are incredibly polite and of course, the food is delicious. I love the rolls, especially their kimmelweck! (My fave roll) This location serves Johnny Ryan soda and bottles of Pepsi products. So while I am happy they're a Pepsi restaurant, a little bummed they don't do fountain soda. They do have outdoor seating and I have been indoors when I haven't had the dog(s), it's very clean and well kept. I recommend this location to friends and will continue coming to this location! read more

Went to N. falls Boulevard Anderson's ordered a few sandwiches and they were delicious. Also ordered loganberry which tasted like water. Since I was really thirsty I went back and was told there was nothing wrong with it and it may be a brand that I am not used too! Asked when they switched brands. The response was they haven't. I've been drinking their loganberry for too many years to mention. Train you staff to not insult the customer. I did manage to resolve it by asking for root beer instead. read more

I go here for lunch with co-workers and always enjoy everything! Their roast beef, baked potatoes and ice cream are my ultimate favorites! Favorite flavor ice cream is the Peanut Butter chip frozen yogurt -its soooo good! read more

The only item on the menu I can offer a review of is the classic vanilla custard. It's AMAZING. So eggy and creamy, and the best vanilla taste. Portions are big! Hopefully we'll get around to trying their food options soon! Definitely a great location here on the boulevard. read more

No better or worse than any other Anderson's in town. Bright, clean, and friendly.... with a great selection of sandwiches and sides (get the curly cue fries..... you're welcome)..... and an even better selection of sweet treats. Ice cream and custard and lemon ice (oh my!). This time I had a sweet and tart concoction of lemon ice and lemon soda and frozen raspberries all blended together into a delightfully thirst quenching beverage. Super yummy and satisfying! read more

I have been eating at Anderson's locations for at least 20 years, and used to frequent this location when I lived nearby. Anderson's has ALWAYS been overpriced, however, the food quality used to be good which kept me returning. Last night was the final straw (which should have been years ago for me). My wife and I were returning from visiting family, and Platters was closed, so Anderson's was our emergency ice-cream go to. 8 freaking dollars (7.70) for two of the SMALLEST, most laughable cups of half filled ice-cream. We could have got 2 big sundaes at most places for that price. I apologize for not taking a picture, as I wish I had now just to show how pathetic it was. Go to Platters, or almost any other place if you want ice-cream. read more

I have always loved this place. When I moved away from Buffalo twelve years ago, this was one of the first places I knew I was going to miss. Their custard is out of this world; the perfect blend of sweet but also thick and not too heavy. But what is excellent about Anderson's is that every day they have a new flavor, something different, something to keep you coming back. When me and my girlfriend moved back to Buffalo this was the first place I told her we immediately needed to try. The flavor of the day happened to be black raspberry, which is my all-time favorite ice cream flavor. She had a peanut butter and jelly shake, which I want to say was both unnerving and delicious at the same time. I am absolutely looking forward to going back again!! read more

Biggest rip off ever!!!! $9.50 for a small roast beef sandwich, small fry and small drink.. This place is a joke. I wish I could leave 0 stars, because that's what this place deserves. And I had to wait 10 mins in the drive thru, when I was the only person here... If you're going to spend this much money you might as well just go to Ted's hot dogs next door. At least you'll be full when you're done eating!! read more

Wow slowwwwww drive thru.half the ice cream was on the side then in my lap .no lid offered then get home to find its not what i ordered

Very rude cashier. Closed down store early for no reason. Ice cream was okay though. Would not recommend.

My first time having frozen custard and I'm hooked! I tried the cinnamon flavor with chocolate sauce which was simply amazing.

Screw up my online to go order once, and make it right I have no issues with you. Screw up my online to go order twice in a row and there is a problem. Frankly I am tired of screw ups and I don't want to have to call when I get home and complain. Don't give me the obligation to feel like a complainer every time I pay you for food and something is missing and/or made wrong. But I should have known things would not be right, as I waited there 15 minutes while they couldn't find my order on the second round of mistakes, when it was already bagged just sitting there getting cold. When they then found it sitting there, after I repeatedly asked why it is taking so long, the girl didn't even say sorry. Then of course at home it's cold and missing a few items. But standing there for no reason while my food was gently giving up all its warmth, gave me the opportunity to observe a kitchen of chaos and see people earning a living wage who really didn't deserve it. read more

Super crowded on summer nights. I love all Anderson's eateries- beef, curly fries, custard. This location even has a drive-thru! Only complaint is that the parking lot can be a nightmare. Otherwise, I love Anderson's! read more

Carls choice Roast beef is always good. Surprisingly some of the best in the area. Side of Cheddar with the seasoned fries are a home run.

Never enjoyed Frozen custard so much till I got to buffalo and discovered Anderson's! My favority flavor is probably frozen custard pistachio flavor, the butter cream flavor is not something I personally would recommend. I do not really like the onion rings here Buffalo Wild Wings have better ones. read more

Love their ice-cream. Good taste and consistency. Enjoyed it. Will go back. Fast moving lines and clean

They forgot the onions on my burger. Went way too hard on the mayo, the bun was smashed and fries were room temperature at best. Definitely over priced. Dirty tables. read more

Went there for lunch I got the law roast beef sandwich the Carl's Choice One really enjoyed it tasted very good

Great ice cream good food... It closes at 9 that's a bit disappointing you'd think a desert place would be open later at night

A true local treat and delicacy in the Western, NY/ Buffalo, NY region. Delicious Beef on Weck as it is called. Otherwise, known also as roast beef on a kilmmeiweck roll. It is unbelievable. The delicious taste of the roast beef on that very tasty roll is an absolute must taste if you are in Buffalo, NY. They serve the awesome curly Q fries as well, awesome indeed!! Being a former resident of the Upstate NY area for many years, I find that over the years, places like Anderson's are becoming harder and harder to find in the United States. It is a true local foodie place and trust me, after reading this review you will thank me because not just the delicious beef on weck but also the custard that is home made at Anderson's is delicious as well. Highly recommend their chocolate vanilla twist from this place, it is awesome. But back to the beef on weck, this place is great for it and has been known in the Buffalo area for a long, long time. I highly recommend to eat here whether you are a local or just visiting the great city of Buffalo, NY and its surrounding areas, this is surely the place to grab your beef on weck! read more
