    Delicious banana ice cream. Big ass waffle cone - $5.30! This is easily a PINT on this cone. Couldn't finish it all.
    Mike R.

    REAL ice cream is appropriate. I love good ice cream. Always have. This stuff is thick, rich, and super dee duper DENSE. I couldn't even finish the entire cone. It has to easily be a pint+ of ice cream + a good sized extra large waffle cone. This stuff is hard-hitting. Not for the faint of heart and definitely not no Baskin-Robbins or Dairy Queen. Not cheap either @$5 a cone. Lately I've been buying Blue Bell pints from Walmart since scoops of ice cream from most places I find kind of uninspiring these days. Even if I was interested in fast food soft serve like from McDonald's, for example, everyone knows their ice cream machine is always broken, lol. I sometimes go to a small family farm in Southern Maryland that does it fresh and that makes me happy. They're very seasonal though and have limited variety. I had banana from Bruster's and loved it. The ice cream isn't super syrupy sweet (at least mine wasn't) which made for a perfect complement to the waffle cone - which was very sweet. Certainly less sweet week than the Banana Pudding ice cream I get from Blue Bell. Still decadent though. I've been passing a few of these Bruster's locations forever and finally decided to stop since I had some appointments in the area the other day. Glad I did because I'll be going back. Gotta be careful because this ice cream is definitely a potential waistline enhancer.

    Yes Please! DELICIOUS ICE CREAM!! The place does not look like it would be high end ice cream - a simple walk up window lacking in the vibes. But they really do it right! The Almond Chocolate Coconut is out of this world! Best part - free ice cream for your pup!!!!!

    Love this Bruster's location. It is closer to home and less busy than the one up in Glen Burnie. The staff is always friendly and quick. I have made several special orders in the past and the process was always super simple. A quick phone call to put the order in and tell them when you want it and then it was always ready when needed. The banana ice cream is my absolute favorite and I have bought it by the gallons in the past to keep at home. Brusters is dog friendly (even though they are only a walk up store) and even offers a complimentary puppy sundae when you bring your dog along. It is the tiniest scoop of vanilla ice cream with a milk bone on top. Reaper approves of it =)

    This is our go to place for ice cream. Whether it's blistering hot or ice cold....we will always get ice cream at this location. Plenty of flavors to choose from and very in different days. They have an online option and are able to order and pick up instead of waiting in line. I go her so often they already know my name when I go there. Highly recommended!

    Coffee Oreo ice cream - like heaven on earth 5/5

    Coffee Oreo! Best flavor on earth! Thanks to the SP location for notifying us so we didn't miss out on carrying out some tubs of my favorite ice cream! Just heavenly!

    Bruster's is great. I always know I'm going to get good ice cream when I go. I got a small waffle cone with toffee crunch ice cream. A small waffle cone comes with 2 scoops of ice cream. Quick service. The cashier was friendly & always good ice cream. Highly recommend!

    My professor bought this delicious ice cream for us. But why Bruster's Real Ice Cream "

    The menu with lots of glare (sorry). Options include bowls, cones, sundaes and shakes.
    Courtney K.

    Bottom Line: A walk-up window where you can get ice cream cones, shakes and sundaes. In my mind Brusters was a cute old-fashioned ice cream parlor where I could sit down and enjoy some summertime ice cream in the air-conditioning. I'm not sure where that imagery came from as Bruster's is just a window that you walk up to to place your order and receive your ice cream. The only places to sit are on the curb or at some wobbly picnic tables in the grass surrounded by bees. Having said that, the staff was friendly, service was fast and the ice cream was delicious.

    birthday cake waffle cone

    This is my favorite place for a scoop of birthday cake ice cream. Their birthday cake ice cream is to die for! It has icing and sprinkles swirled in and they give you like 3 scoops in a waffle cone. It's so delicious and it came out within 2 minutes of me ordering. The service was friendly. Their other flavors are okay but this one is the one that keeps me coming back.

    This is the second time I have visited this place and I love it! I wanted the Birthday cake milkshake but they ran out by the time I got there. instead i got the vanilla with cookie dough and it was so good! I finished it in the car before we even pulled off!

    If you're in the mood for rich, delicious soft-serve and simple but tasty old-school style American…read morefare, this place is for YOU! I had the famous footlong dog - was surprised to see it was deep fried... I wish I'd gotten a double. VERY tasty. My strawberry sundae healed something for my inner child - it was reminiscent of the ones they used to serve at McDonalds. Next time I'm going to ask for extra strawberries. I will note: you need to pack your patience - the line was long but the employees were efficient and cranking as hard as they could. Definitely worth the wait. There will be repeat visits over the summer!!!

    Ann's Dari Crème has been open for 75 years. Places do not last that long by accident. They last…read morebecause they do a few things consistently well, and they keep doing them. The menu is classic, the kind of simple comfort food that has nothing to hide behind. Hot dogs, chili, fries, soft serve. Everything is straightforward and made the way you want it to be. The space is tiny, which is part of the charm and part of the warning label. There are only six seats, all at a counter, no tables. This is mostly a grab, wait a few minutes, and take it home kind of stop. Go early if you want a seat. Service is fast and genuinely friendly. Smiles, efficiency, no attitude, just people who know what they're doing. That kind of warmth matters more than most restaurants realize. We ordered a few foot longs, chili fries, and a couple ice cream cones. Every single item hit. The hot dogs were best loaded up with toppings, and the chili fries are a must. Rich, messy, and completely worth it. Highly recommended.
