Though they…read moredon't have indoor seating, they do have a nice area behind the restaurant that has picnic tables and plenty of shade. There are plenty of choices as far as food goes and they have many different ice cream choices as well.

Midweek on a hot July day, this was the only place in town that was open, and boy were we lucky. We…read morewere driving out of town after a fun educational visit to the state museum grist mill, saw this place was open, and we had to stop. And boy was it worth it. Cold waters, cold sodas, and perfect one scoop waffle cones. I had pumpkin ice cream and the wife enjoyed cookies & cream. Friendly service. Incredibly inexpensive. And the cookie jars are as advertised, floor to ceiling, with an entire back room filled too. If you're touristing around in Metamora, this unique place needs to be one of your stops.

Grannies Cookie Jar & Ice Cream Parlor is a Metamora, Indiana icon, though it may be weird to call…read moreanything in this historic Franklin County town an actual "icon." There's quite a bit you know about me if you've followed my reviews for any length of time. This likely includes my long friendship with fellow Yelp Elites Rick G. and Holly G. - in fact, I performed their wedding ceremony! The three of us have actually collaborated on quite a few projects over the years, either due to Rick's music and comedy or because of my long history of activism and charity work. Frequently, our collaborations combine Rick and Holly's creativity with my activist spirit. For a couple years, Rick and Holly owned a shop in Metamora called Mosaic Learn & Play - I, in turn, owned a small charity bookstore within the walls of Mosaic. While I never spent nearly as much time in Metamora as did Rick and Holly, I spent my fair share of time there and grew to appreciate the picturesque, friendly town. Rick and Holly's wedding was even in Metamora! As is true of most historic towns, accessibility can definitely be an issue in Metamora. Truthfully, I'd say there's more that's not accessible than there actually is accessible in the town. Grannies is most certainly not perfect, a step greeting you at the front door and a crowded shop making even the most experienced wheelchair user more than a little paranoid. It's possible, I've been to Grannies more than once, but it's definitely a shop where I take my time wheeling and I am super careful everywhere I turn. Grannies, first of all, is an official world record holder. Granny owns over 2600 cookie jars - and I believe they're all actually here in this shop. She's held the record since 2012, as I recall. Grannies is, of course, an ice cream shop. Granny even makes all of her waffle cones by hand. Each one has a Hershey kiss at the bottom. She puts a whole lot of love in her waffle cones. The ice cream is pretty incredible, too. She has quite a few flavors and they're at reasonable prices for pretty darn amazing servings. Grannies is open 7 days a week throughout the year. While I can't say I'd drive all the way to Metamora for her ice cream, if I am in the Metamora there's no way I'm leaving without stopping at Grannies. Metamora is a beautiful little canal town. It has definitely been impacted by the pandemic, but the people are also hanging in there. I'm not quite going to say that time stands still here, but it's sure not a place you go to speed up. Metamora is a surprisingly easy drive from Indy and the entire Franklin County area could easily be a relaxing, fairly isolated day trip with Brookville also nearby as the seat of the county. There are even a couple places you can stay in Metamora, though they aren't particularly strong with access and you'd probably want to go to Brookville if that's needed. If you get a chance, head south to Metamora and be sure to stop in at Grannies for some ice cream and definitely check out those cookie jars!

Awesome food, the best staff, good prices. Will use them again for sure. They go above and beyond.

When we got there, we realized it was only indoor seating, so we got our ice cream and pup cups to go and eat near the cars. (Cute little shop, though!) My friend and I both got the Honey B, which was a big #yum. And the 3 doggos with us thoroughly enjoyed their pup cups.

We tried four flavors and all of them were terrible. They were incredibly over churned, which made they grainy/icy and absolutely disgusting. The peanut butter ice cream was also the only one of the four that had any actual flavor. Then of course is the fact that you sit there with the grumpy employees with no music playing in there. It's just awkward. All in all a truly horrible experience and we won't be going back.

Everyone has to start somewhere, and I genuinely wish them the best. That said, during nearly every visit, I've encountered staff who come across as rude, argumentative, or dismissive without any apparent reason. Even when I've been the only vehicle in the drive-thru, wait times have often been 15-20 minutes. When orders are brought out, the interactions consistently feel unenthusiastic and, at times, abrasive. Unfortunately, this hasn't been an isolated experience--it's been a pattern over multiple visits. I understand that customer service skills take time to develop, but consistent courtesy and professionalism are still important. Because of the repeated experiences I've had, I've decided I can no longer support this business.
