We decided to enjoy a Friday afternoon treat at The Chief Creamery in Granger. We have been here…read morebefore but it's been a while, so there was some news items I didn't remember from my prior trip. We were greeted nicely as we came in, and we're happy to see it was not overly busy as we know it can be! We had someone who needed No sugar added ice cream and she was happy to know there was 2-3 options available. She chose moose tracks and loved it! She said it was of course not as good as the "real deal" in her words but delicious and creamy in its own right. My 13 year old had her go-to chocolate, which was gigantic! I had a little taste and it was creamy and sweet! I chose the espresso/coffee house flavor of the day: it was magic! Chocolate pieces and rich espresso flavor was amazing! They gentlemen working the counter were very friendly and polite and the facility felt very clean and welcoming with big wood tables for large groups. I liked that they had a coffee house/sandwich shop added which I did not remember from before. I will have to return and try a grilled cheese panini sometime . I highly recommend the chief for a delicious weekend treat with the family!

Long ago when I was in college, I went to The Chief. I got what I usually get--mint chocolate chip…read more Fast forward to this summer and I went there with my family--I got my usual. My wife got the Peanut Butter Oreo. Did I make a huge mistake? Yes. Yes, I did. The mint chocolate chip is delicious and all, but they nailed it with the PB Oreo. I had a borderline existential crisis right there. What had I done with my life? How many times have I overlooked the PB Oreo? Who is Kafkaesque? I don't know him. In case you're not picking up what I'm putting down--the PB Oreo is the way to go. Now that I live in Kansas, this place is all the more special to me. Whether this one or the one on Lincoln Ave--they know what's up. The Chief is a staple for the Michiana area. The service. The people. The flavors. Yes, please.

This is a wonderful drive thru/ walk up custard stand we love to visit after school on hot days!…read more We visited recently last week on a very slow day for the business (unusual) and drove thru the drive thru. The young lady who helped us was very friendly with a nice smile. She let us know the flavors available and suggested her own personal favorite which was nice to hear! My daughters always get a single or double in a cup. This time it was chocolate all around! Everyone was extremely happy with the rich delicious chocolate taste of Ritters custard. It was so smooth and creamy tasting. Their scoops are very generous so we all only had just one scoop and it was more than enough! We will return again and again for a delicious after school treat or weekend dessert trip!

Just a quick review of my experience - Murphy's is a popular ice cream shop near the Notre Dame…read morecampus in South Bend and there is a reason it is so popular! The ice cream and the vibes are so cool! The vibes are very cozy and the staff are hard workers. You can also sample some of their ice cream, many of which have very creative names! (See my picture of the bourbon ice cream, "Exhausted Parent"). There are three sizes you can get, generally 1, 2, or 3 scoops. The "small" is 2 scoops and cost a little over $5. I got myself the small as a post dinner dessert with my boyfriend and some of our friends on a crisp April day in 2026. One scoop was the oatmeal cookie chocolate chip, one of the best ice creams I have had in a while, and the other scoop was called Fat Elvis, also pretty good, although it could have had more texture. They rotate their flavors sort of regularly so maybe next time I visit, I'll find a new favorite! As for now, the oatmeal cookie chocolate chip is my favorite flavor here. Yum!

Definitely a must go for a nice ice cream shop near downtown south bend or for visiting Irish families.

The coffee, unfortunately, is ass. Bad enough that I genuinely hate docking an otherwise great local business two stars for it. The espresso tastes like someone emptied a bunch of used Keurig pods and cigarettes into pool water and boiled it for seven hours. Burnt, dirty and aggressively bitter, without any of the flavor that makes strong coffee actually good. And that's what makes it so frustrating. This is exactly the kind of independent bakery/cafe where I WANT to buy a great latte instead of going to Biggby or another chain. There's a huge opportunity here to be the legit coffee spot in town, and the rest of the place already deserves it. Please, for the love of God, fix the espresso. Your pastries deserve a better wingman.

Chunk's Ice Cream is exactly what Buchanan has been needing! They opened up about a year ago, and…read moreit's quickly become one of my favorite stops in town. They took a little building leftover from a long-gone factory, something that had sat empty for years, and turned it into a charming ice cream shop right along the McCoy Creek Trail in the downtown park. It's a perfect location for families, walkers, and bikers to stop in for a treat. The shop has a few benches and picnic tables outside, which makes it a nice place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. The service is always fast and friendly, and the ice cream itself is delicious. The rotating flavor menu offers plenty of flavor options, always fresh, and served with a smile. Buchanan has been missing a dedicated ice cream shop for a long time, and Chunk's fills that role perfectly. Highly recommend stopping in!! I forgot to mention that they also offer a customer rewards points program to redeem for a $5 discount. Lastly, they have a $1 Pup cup which is well worth it for your furry friends.
