The Ice Cream Shoppe is THE place to go in the summer (and you better go a lot because it's only…read moreopen May-August!) It's a little shack right by the marina in downtown Cedarville, and you can eat your delicious cone or sundae out at the tables by the water - if it's sunset, even better! The shoppe always is well-stocked with three cases of rotating flavors of ice cream (Mackinac Island Fudge is always there, though!) plus plenty of specialty sundaes, shakes and malts to choose from. One of my family members orders a Heavenly Hill sundae (with hot fudge and Reese's Pieces on top) every time - yum! One scoop is $2 and two is only $2.50. Sundaes are a little more ($3.75-$4.75) but remember you're paying for the experience and the enjoyment of summer! They also serve hot dogs and other food-shack-type but I've never tried them. You can order from inside (standing room for only about 4 people!) or outside at the window but I think the inside is faster and you can see all the ice cream flavors. In the evenings there's usually a bit of a line but the girls who usually are working there are fast and friendly. Small little parking lot fits about 5-6 cars. There's a little slide where kids can play and a gazebo with extra seating, and it's just an all-around perfect experience to go out for ice cream in the summers in Cedarville!

Sadie's Ice Cream Parlor was the perfect sweet ending to my first day at the Grand! The hospitality…read morewas just as warm as you'd hope, with friendly staff who made choosing from their wonderful variety of flavors a fun challenge. I chose the Peanut Butter Mackinac Fudge, and it was pure creamy goodness--rich, decadent, and packed with generous ribbons of peanut butter and chunks of Mackinac fudge. Every bite was absolutely delicious and left with wanting more! One of my favorite things is how conveniently Sadie's is attached to the Grand Hotel. As a hotel guest, it's was a treat to grab my ice cream and (after 6:30 p.m while dressed according to the evening dress code), enjoy it while relaxing in the beautiful Parlor. It adds an extra touch of charm to an already memorable Grand Hotel experience. Whether you're craving a classic favorite or a signature flavor, Sadie's is absolutely worth a stop. Delicious ice cream, genuine hospitality, and an elegant setting made it much more than just a place for dessert.

They offer an entirely separate vegan menu with multiple flavors to choose from, which was so appreciated. I sampled the chocolate vegan ice cream and it was absolutely incredible -- rich, creamy, and full of flavor. It genuinely tasted like premium ice cream, not just a substitute. If you're vegan and visiting the Traverse City area, this is definitely a must-stop dessert spot!

Upon walking in and seeing all the impressive memorabilia as a modern day "Cheers" bar. It may not be laid out the same but the atmosphere and the surroundings definitely embrace a lot of local sports history. The owner being a major leaguer, himself! With over a dozen screens, it's a terrific spot to catch the game. With all the liquor bottles and beer options behind the bar, it's also a mixologist's dream. They also have an impressive food menu at very reasonable rates. My favourite (for now) is the mushroom burger. More to come on that one. Mrs. E. and I will be heading over to try the Broasted Chicken. It was a staple in our Canadian diet and it's a Marty's specialty. Having been open less than a month, now, I wanted to get a quick look and draw some attention to Marty's. After a few cocktails and great conversation, I was glad I stopped in. Look for my update on our family's first Broasted dinner. 02/24

I opted for a cup of the delicious Ultimate Peanut Butter Brownie!! It came w a small waffle cone piece on top. The ice cream flavors are so unique that it's not too overwhelming. I didn't shop around but I'm pretty sure I was in candy heaven! I didn't peruse the taffy wall, just enough to see there were dozens of flavors for $11.99/pound. There are several candy/fudge stores almond this main artery that I didn't check out so I'm not sure how Sweet Spot stacks up, all I know is that the four of us left satisfied. Thanks Sweet Spot for the sweet treat!

Maybe it was just me but that's something I can look past of course (as I am very tall and have a rbf). There was no menu in the shop which I feel would make it confusing if you were trying to order anything besides just ice cream in a cone or cup. The ice cream here wasn't just basic flavors and they're was even descriptions on each flavor so you know what it contained too. I got Mackinaw Island Fudge and it tasted like it has some freezer burn which I wasn't to fond of, and the "fudge" in it just looked, tasted, and had the properties of chocolate syrup.. it melted faster than the ice cream and it ran like crazy! My cousin, who was with me, said her ice cream wasn't like mine and was okay. Our goal is to try a new ice cream place, every time we go out for some.
