This is hands down one of my favorite ice cream shops now. There are so many delicious selections to choose from, ranging from hard ice cream, soft serve, a variety of toppings, shakes, frozen bananas, specialty cones and bowls, lemonade, slushies, Hawaiian shave ice, and more! I got a scoop of panda paws and a scoop of peanut butter chocolate with hot fudge, peanut butter sauce, and crunchies on top. It was so flavorful and the flavors blended together so well. My mom got soft serve chocolate and vanilla twist in a cone, my brother got vanilla soft serve in a cup, and my husband got a chocolate shake. Everyone enjoyed what they got very much. The staff were so friendly and quick which was a plus, and even though we went on a holiday Monday, it wasn't slammed with a long wait. We weren't sure if they were open or not since they made a social media post about the holiday, but didn't confirm in their post if they were open, closed, or had altered hours. We had to call a few times until someone answered and confirmed they were open. Parking is limited, but we were able to snag one of their reserved spots. I could see it being an issue if they're slammed, though, so be mindful of that. The outdoor seating available is beautiful and right on Lake Ontario. There are several picnic tables, benches, and an oversized Bev's chair! They also have lights strung up around their seating, which I bet looks beautiful in the night time, so I'll just have to make a night trip there one day. My family and I loved the time we spent together here. I will definitely be back and can't wait! read more

This place feels like vacation! It's right on Lake Ontario and has so many choices for ice cream. I got the French roast coffee ice cream because I was in the mood for an 'iced coffee'. It was SO delicious! The view is absolutely stunning! We ate our ice cream looking at the endless water of Lake Ontario. The service was friendly and helpful. They also have pup cups! I'll be back! read more

A great spot by the lake for ice cream. I ordered the caramel praline turtle & it was definitely too sweet for me. My husband ordered the ice cream nachos but he felt he needed more ice cream to enjoy the rest of his waffle chips. If you have a sweet tooth & you're in the area, it's definitely a place to check out. read more

Follow up to my review from last year, also known as my Ode to Peanut Butter: I was in town again this summer and rekindled my love for this place. Vanilla Flurry with peanut butter sauce and peanut butter cups. Still insane. I can't find a comparable example anywhere else. Something about the proportions maybe? This year, I made sure to give myself enough time to sit at a picnic table and stare at the lake. It's so peaceful here. And such a pleasant crowd... Still five stars. read more

It actually pains me to write this review. Years ago, Bev's was the place to go...if you were a local or a student. I have many memories here and I was excited to bring my boyfriend here today for his first time. Disappointment instantly set in. Bev's isn't homemade ice cream anymore as it once was. Now they serve "Perry's Ice Cream." It just wasn't good and took away that small town feel this place once had. The ice cream now tastes very commercialized. The nostalgic feeling is gone. read more

Bev's Dairy Treat - Sour Apple flavorburst - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Oswego, New York

An amazing selection of ice cream flavors at a reasonable price. The staff was also friendly with quick service.

Great place to grab an ice cream cone! Good flavor selection and you can't beat the view. Especially at sunset.

So many Choices of Ice cream soft and hard. Multiple toppings available. I and my son ordered a sundae. My sundae was full of air. My wife's cone was stale. So many other ice cream shops in the area. read more

Two Berry Twist!!!!!! Enough said. This is the best that I have found throughout the greater Syracuse area.

Delicious soft serve and an amazing view of Lake Ontario. I'd return here all the time in the summer if I lived closer!

Bevs is the place spot to grab some frozen yogurt, sit on a bench and enjoy the beautiful views of Lake Ontario. Parking can sometimes be difficult, as it is located on Route 89 which can be fairly busy at times. People walk around the area with their dogs, solo or with their families. It is walking distant to Oswego's campus which is really convenient. The have a decent amount of flavors, but you can't go wrong with a vanilla cone with chocolate sprinkles, the best. They are only open from the end of April to the beginning of August, I believe. read more

$2.85 for a generic "shake" substance with artificial strawberry flavor mixed in? I wish I had known ahead of time so I could've ordered something else--or gone somewhere else. read more

The perfect place for an ice cream shoppe. Walking distance from Campus, a great place to make memories with friends. Awesome ice cream, even better views, a real treat. read more

A little off west campus. A nice place to walk your dog to or take a little stroll with your friends or if it's far for you, you can drive there because there's parking spots next to it. Lines do get freakishly long but if you're with friends the wait can be bearable. If you're impatient, the waiting can be too much for you. Ice cream is reasonably priced but not many varieties, just the basics really. The only thing that's really unique about it is the sizes of the ice cream and the 3 different cones. I would still recommend going because it would be a nice treat for the summer heat especially looking out to the beautiful lake view behind it. read more

Perfect summer ice cream stop! Great location with a beautiful view! Not much of an ice cream selection, just the basics. read more

Every lakeshore town needs an ice cream shack and this is one of Oswego's. Right along Lake Ontario and walking distance from SUNY, this summer 'shack' is a treat to try. Naturally, it's soft-serve ice cream with sprinkles but they have a wide variety of flavors and combinations including raspberry and strawberry swirl - all served with one of the best sunsets in North America - no kidding. read more

Bev's isn't anything special in terms of ice cream, its soft serve with the typical road side ice cream stand offerings, but its way better than eating a cone at Rudy's and the view is incredible, Bev's for a sunset is pretty ideal. read more

Very good soft serve ice cream. Inexpensive and conveniently located near campus! Wish they were open year round and had more space.

I love bevs... Cheap, usually quick, lots of variety. A good stop after Rudy's. Cash Only!

Good ice cream and great location right on the water. Good place to get desert after eating a meal next door at Rudy's.

Decent place for some ice cream that isn't Blue Bell. Proportion to price is good, as well as a good selection in the menu and helpful service. Best part was the placement and view of the lake. You'd be hard pressed to find a better place with the combo. read more

Bev's has been there a long time, usually catching the Rudy's overflow. Nothing special here, in fact the quality has declined over the years as they used to have great shakes. It's down the road from Oswego University, great lakeside view.. read more
