I got the bulldog crunch ice cream, which was delicious and generously portioned. The 80s vibe was adorable as well. It felt like we were part of the Ithaca family. Definitely reccomend.

There was a line but it moved surprisingly quick, however after placing order you do get a number and wait for them to call when your order is up. I got a hot fudge sundae with coconut ice cream and bulldog crunch ice cream, I enjoyed it! Daughter got rainbow sherbert, son got cookie dough. We also got a monster milkshake which was shared by two. Didn't knock my socks off as anything shockingly different, but still was good ice cream! Worth a visit!

After not being there for a while, this was legitimately my first stop on campus when visiting. Went straight from the airport and got some scoops. Even on days when the temperature dipped below zero, I found myself wanting ice cream from Dairy Bar when I was a student. Years later, I'm happy to say that the flavors were still as good as I hoped. There are times when nostalgia can carry or elevate a memory of something, and luckily, nostalgia aside, I very much enjoyed my ice cream here. Pro tip for those who might not know: they serve limited flavors of the same Cornell-made ice cream in dining halls. They also serve it during the buffets at Statler Hotel. I love the different flavors, and would eat it at any time of day.

Racquel's cake is delicious and designed with a true artist's touch. She's very easy to talk to when I wanted to customize it. Her ordering process is also very straightforward, getting back to me quickly after the online form is submitted. We are from Texas. Racquel's business is truly a blessing to families like us and helps us to stay close to the important days with our children when they are thousands of miles away from home. Thank You Racquel for all the beautiful cakes and moments. I highly recommend this business!

We got our wedding cake and cupcakes from Sinfully Delicious and they were stunning and delectable!…read moreRaquel was great to work with as we nailed down our flavors and numbers, and multiple guests told us that this was the best dessert they'd ever had at a wedding. Our cake was cardamom sponge with lemon curd and lemon meringue buttercream, and my spouse, who has very high standards for baked goods, said that they could not have imagined having a better cake. Truly a fantastic experience.

Excellent baked goods. Lively atmosphere…read more We wanted some fast, indulgent takeout (Jul 2026). We hit the very cute Ithaca Bakery on Meadow at Court. I think that's called the Washington Park neighborhood, or west-Downtown. For pickup, we parked on Meadow. To eat in, there's a pretty large parking lot on Court Street. We saw what looked like more than 40 pastries in the display case, more than 15 bagel varieties, smoothies, teas, lemonade, and a host of creative coffee beverages. Of course, i got an espresso, neat. Rich, dense, dark, hot, perfectly drawn. And a regular Americano with oat milk. Fresh and tasty. Got a generously decorated well-crisped BLT to-go. We split that enormous blueberry, strawberry, kiwi tart. I wont even tell you what we added on top, but i'll say it was nearly next door ;-) Quick friendly service. The happy chatter of well-caffeinated well-sugared people. We even saved a fellow pastry-aficionado from forgetting their purse!

Incredible cheddar biscuit!…read more I would return for their cheddar biscuit alone- it is slightly crisp, not dry, and tastes like a cheezit! Delicious! I ordered the dolce special- so so good! I love the addition of the pepper jelly. Ever so slightly spicy and the perfect added sweetness. I also tried the cranberry orange and mixed berry scone- both were tasty though I slightly preferred the cranberry orange one. Not much seating inside- came around 10:00am on a Saturday and was able to snag a table for three. A bit of a line but moves fast. Overall, I would highly recommend trying Dolce Delight!
