Friendly, polite and courteous staff. Ice cream very good and inside was nice and clean!

This a regional chain in KC. Lots of interesting flavors. One scoop is plenty. The ice cream is very thick. Two boys with no personality were working the counter. Need some lessons on politely engaging with customers. Even with younger customers and pretty girls, they acted very uninterested read more

Ice cream is super thick, if that's something you like. Very creamy and a bit heavy. A small goes a long way. Milkshakes, cones, cups, everything's available with lots of fun flavors. I tried the peanut butter milkshake and it was super sweet. Servers are kind and will let you try any flavor you'd like. Fun indoor and outdoor seating with sports themed decor! Enough seating for big parties to enjoy a good time. read more

Great people and great ice cream. They featured some fun Christmas flavors and will pack up pints to take home. A few tables and a clean area make it fun. read more

Betty Rae’s Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

Cute cream shop chain. KC local and has opened many new locations recently. Plenty of fun flavors and even dairy free options. Tried their bbq flavor which had bbq sauce and even chunks of bbq in it, it was a unique choice. Funfetti has cake prices with sprinkles, so tasty. My favorite flavor is their goat cheese, apricots, and walnuts. Every flavor offered can be bought to go in pints, quarts, .5 and regular gallons. You can make it a sundae, shakes, or float too. They have ice cream flights and huge ice cream sandwiches that look amazing. Staff is always friendly and they always have clean locations! Highly recommend if you're looking for fun flavors! read more

One of Kansas City's best concepts has made it to Olathe. You'll find a bright and welcoming space with a staff that matches its energy. The front freezer is full of unique and adventurous flavors. Old favorites are available, too. You can order them in a cup, a cone, as a sundae and more. Select flavors are available to go. read more

The long-time KCMO ice cream shoppe superstar now finds itself in the 'burbs with its location in Olathe. And you can be sure that this spot will allow you to find the same phenomenal flavor profiles and delectable scoops on waffle cones that have thrilled the River Market and Waldo areas for nearly a decade. You can get ice cream almost anywhere: soft-serve, or drive-thru spots that add lots of mix-in options, but real *artisanal* ice cream requires seeking a destination. Betty Rae's Olathe location is tucked into strip building with just enough space to order and enjoy. There are anchors on their flavor menu (hello, Cereal Milk) and there will always be seasonal options always rotating (if that Chantilly Cake ever comes back...) with some easy options in-between. There are even vegan/non-dairy options should you need to find a taste for any palate or profile. Not sure what you want? Samples are always a good choice so you can really see what you like. Get a cup or get a cone, or have one of their friendly staff mix up your choice in shake or sundae format. And if you do find something that you can't stop eating, you can either get a hand-packed pint to go or just select one pre-scooped from their freezer. Almost everyone loves ice cream and sometimes a good scoop will evoke memories of youth or make new ones. This is a spot where you can satisfy a sweet tooth or maybe just share some quality family time. Betty Rae's has built a rep by taking ice cream to a different level, and this location is an extension of that. read more

Best ice cream shop in Kansas City! I went to the one in Olathe. Inside of the place is cute. They give you a sample to try to see if you like the flavor. I had cookie dough, and cookies & cream, and it was delicious! Service was awesome! Not only you can get an ice cream and hangout there, they have pints for you to take home! Looking forward to coming back here soon! read more

The ice cream is tasty if you're willing to stand in long line for a dip. We have visited the shop 3 times and there is a line out the door upon every visit. The vegan flavors is what drew us in for a taste. It's a good thing to offer a pint, but why is it more than double what you pay in the grocery? It makes me miss the drive through that costs less than $5.00. Great location near a soccer complex. The quick service is appreciated with the line out the door. read more

Coldstone - WATCH OUT. Betty Rae's is locally owned and operated and they know their flavors! I have NEVER had ice cream like their goat cheese, apricot and walnut (phenomenal) or their mint chocolate chip that really tasted like clean, fresh mint. Their coffee and crème brûlée topped the charts. The peanut butter and the matcha came in next for me since we tried the flight. We intended to try the flavors and save some for enjoying later at home... fat chance! There was no way we were leaving that store with ice cream left over. LOL They also have pints to go! Live life, my friends, and enjoy some ice cream! read more

I went on a chilly late Saturday afternoon, & fortunately for me, got in just before people started making their way in! (Maybe there was a soccer game since the sport complex is nearby and there were many kids)? Anyway, I digress. I tried three flavors: Thou Mayest Coffee, Lavender & Honey, and Crème Brûlée--i liked them all, but couldn't see myself eating too much of the Lavender and Honey one before I'd get sick of it. Don't let that fool you, though, it is surprisingly tasty! They have different sizes which I'm guessing are pretty standard for an ice cream shop, and they do offer a non-dairy/vegan option. Sadly, I didn't notice a gluten-free cone, but you could get in a non-edible plastic cup. Not too much seating, but that's okay, I wasn't planning on staying anyway. The young people who served me seemed nice and helpful. Not too busy when I got in, as mentioned, until I was pondering what to have, then it got busy. I can see this becoming a place I'd visit again. read more

Food: we got the $15 The Revolver flight. Our flavors chosen were: Vanilla bean, Honey Lavender, Thou Mayest Coffee, Creme Brûlée, Matcha, and Chamomile. Some thoughts on these flavors: Vanilla bean- BASIC Honey Lavender- strong flowery flavor (said to remind of an air freshener) Thou Mayest Coffee- for the coffee lovers Creme Brûlée- very sweet and caramel flavored Matcha- strong matcha flavor and not as sweet Chamomile- our FAVORITE. We liked the light hint of chamomile Service: the workers seemed very tired of scooping ice cream and were giving smaller and smaller scoops. Ambiance: no music, no vibes. For a grand opening, it was missing some key elements to wow the crowd. They did have some awesome promotions that day! But other than that, on a normal Sunday night there was a line out the door. We waited about 10 mins for our ice cream. read more

Betty Rae’s Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

This place was located conveniently across from our hotel so I decided to stop by and treat my family to some ice cream. Let me tell you I am so glad we stopped by. The ice cream here is by far the best I have ever had. For starters the girls who work there are extremely friendly and offer to get you to try the flavors before choosing one you like. I picked a big scoop of Ooey Gooey Butter Cake in their homemade waffle cone and it was amazing! The place itself is nice and colorful with beautiful accent walls. They have tables and chairs, so you can enjoy your ice cream there, and if you have little ones they have crayons and coloring pages for them to be entertained. I was really impressed by this place and most definitely recommend. read more

Best ice cream in Olathe for sure, KC of course. Gooey Buttercake is by far the best, with a close second butter pecan. A must enjoy.

No other ice cream even compares to Betty's, not within any of the places I have been in the US. The flavor, the creaminess, the staff....just out of this world! We enjoy the peanut butter, matcha, brown butter toasted pecan, honey lavender and the special at Easter with Andrés almonds. To die for! We always bring our family from out of town (to the original location before this one opened) and everyone says it's dreamy ice cream. They are good at letting you know ingredients for food allergies ( such as gluten free which is me!), they even offer dairy free options so everyone can partake. They make their own waffle cones, they smell divine but obviously I can not partake, they do offer GF sugar cones. Make this a stop, any of the locations, take home a few pints-you will not be disappointed. read more

Someday I need to check out some of the other local ice cream shops, but for now Betty Rae's is #1! Stopped by the Olathe location for the first time today because it was on my way home. I got lavender honey (one of my favs) with matcha. The matcha is good! The people working were friendly, but not overly. The store was clean & cute like their other locations. read more

Best in KC, hands down. Flavors are creative, fun, and delicious. What more could you want?

My review of the first Betty Rae's location started off with a rant. Credit to the lovely folks at BR's for solving item #3 on that rant: "I'm mad that Betty Rae's is across town from my house!" --Now, I have a location about 6 minutes away! Wooooo! To be honest, I'm a little scared of how often I'm going to find myself at this palace of INCREDIBLE, creamy, true-to-flavor ice cream! It might just be TOO CLOSE!! haha... This new outpost is tucked into a small strip center, just south of K-10 on Ridgeview. Super easy to get to! My first venture was on a Friday night, and let's just say that the word is already out - the place was jammed! Hungry ice-creamers filed down the counter, through the dining room and out the door...a good 20-deep. But, alas, isn't that a sign of something incredible? They were a bit understaffed for the rush we encountered, but the folks working at the time were doing an outstanding job of helping all us sweet-tooths as expediently as possible. They answered at least half-a-dozen questions from my two kiddos about "what-is-in-such-and-such-flavor", hooked us up and checked us out ASAP. Also, the dining room is of the size that feels very squished, very quickly. I'm sure that 98% of the week, it's perfectly fine...but, for Friday and Saturday (and super warm summer) nights, it's gonna be pretty tight. Niggles aside, the ice cream is (still!) on point. For the uninitiated, I believe that Betty Rae's hits the nail on the head better than any other cold-treat purveyor with their flavors. You want Peanut Butter? You get peanut butter. You want chocolate? You get true-to-form chocolate. I've never encountered another place that gets the flavors SO CLOSE to the real thing....but cold and sweet, of course! Still one of my faves, and now dangerously close to my part of town! Food = 6/5 Facility = 3/5 Service = 4/5 Ambiance = 2/5 Value = 3/5 read more

All the ice cream is really good. Their sundae's are unbelievable. So good and will keep going back.

If you want flavorful ice cream no need to look any further. This location opened up today. The staff was overwhelmed but still efficient. The ice cream was delicious. I love the crème brûlée flavor. The hubby got himself a strawberry pint. The little one loves the s'mores flavor. The place was really busy but the long line moved fast. I'm so happy that we have this location close by. I can't wait to come back. read more

Seriously the most amazing ice cream I've ever had! Really appreciate the multiple gluten-free options and truly unique flavors. The customer service at the Ridgeview Road location has always been fantastic. read more

Love the variety of freshly made ice cream and waffle cones. So many good and different flavors!

This is the best ice cream in the city. When I think about cookies and cream I think Betty Rae's. Don't be deterred by a line, it moved quickly. Not a ton of seats inside but, they turnover relatively quickly. Take home a pint or 6 because there's guaranteed more than 1 flavor you're going to want! read more

Best ice cream in KC, hands down! Delicious and unique flavors, plus all the traditional flavors too!

Variety of flavors to select from. Carrot cake ice cream on an unseasonably warm autumn afternoon hits the spot! It tastes like a hunk of delicious carrot cake mushed together with rich, decadent ice cream. Scrumptious!! Good luck picking a single flavor to enjoy! read more

Ice cream is SO yummy! Creamy tasty delicious goodness. The two young men working were so nice- great customer service. I foresee this location being crazy busy as summer approaches. Definitely be back! read more

One of the dirtiest places I've been in Display case for ice cream was filthy windows looked like they had never been cleaned Ice cream was good read more

There is ice cream... & then there is Betty Rae's. This is the best ice cream in the Kansas City area! The y have an array of different flavors and if you are adventurous you can mix and match to make the perfect ice cream experience. I often feel that ice cream places with a variety of flavors don't focus on making the traditional flavors tasty, but Betty Rae's has quality all around! The staff is nice and inviting at every location and I love the quirky photo booths and paintings on the walls. If you are in the mood for ice cream, it has to be Betty Rae's. read more

Betty Rae’s Ice Cream - Chocolate big scoop in a waffle cone. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

Great service especially from the lady at the counter I believe her name was Ameris. The ice crane is yummy and good vibes inside also

I am a big foodie. I was able to get a great Instagram post at this place. The ice cream had great aesthetic. The service helped me get the lighting right for my post and allowed my grandma to still get some sun so she wouldn't be cold. Thank you! read more

First time at Betty Rae's and it will be my last. I ordered a scoop of fudge brownie. It was the smallest scoop imaginable and cost $5! There were no brownies in the ice cream. It tasted ok but nothing better than the chocolate ice cream I can get at the grocery store. read more

This ice cream shop is not very clean. Case containing ice cream isn't clean and employees were picking bit out of the ice cream in the case with their fingers. A bit surprised considering this business is highly rated. read more

Excellent location with lots of great options for ice cream. The honey lavender is a top favorite for me, and I was glad to have a closer location to get it. The ambiance of this location is a not quite as good as the other one, and feels a bit more sterile. But the product and people working here are top notch! read more

Very good ice cream shop! Line out the door most nights should tell you something. They offer so many options for your dessert desire, that it's almost impossible not to find something for your sweet tooth! The shop itself is a little small, but it works. The service has never disappointed. Polite, friendly, and professional. They make their own waffle cones in house and you can watch them do it! That is personally my choice. Sample any flavor of ice cream as well. We always visit when we are in the area. read more
