Had some time to kill so my son and I stopped in. Pleasant atmosphere with plenty of workers there to handle our order. We both got waffle cones, Dutch Chocolate for me... and my son had some lemon flavor. High quality ice cream, my new go to place. read more

stopped in craving something sweet and was thrilled to see they had black cherry ice cream, one of my all-time favorite flavors. If you're a fan of black cherry, you definitely need to try it here. They offer a great selection of seasonal flavors and clearly take pride in using quality ingredients. The ice cream tastes rich, creamy, and fresh. The shop itself is a cute little spot with plenty of indoor seating, making it a nice place to relax while enjoying your treat. In addition to ice cream, they also carry a fun variety of ice cream cakes, ice cream sandwiches, chocolates, candies, gummies, lunch boxes, T-shirts, and even treats for your fur babies, which is honestly reason enough to visit. Free street parking is available, and there is also a parking lot around the corner, which makes stopping by pretty convenient. With summer right around the corner, this is definitely a place to keep on your ice cream list. Already looking forward to my next visit. read more

I think handles is more affordable and you get more. It taste better also. I paid 7 for a 1 scoop cone when I can buy a pint from handles for that price. Only 2 stars. read more

Cookies and cream, yes please. Super creamy and smooth...and the cookies are soft! Whether I choose to get a cone, or waffle cup, it's always a treat. Great location if you're in the area! read more

Graeter's Ice Cream - My favorite with huge chunks of delicious chocolate - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Carmel, Indiana

This place is amazing!! My friends and I came in during a weekday in the middle of the day so it was pretty dead. The weather had also just turned cold but here we were wanting ice cream. We came in and both employees behind the counter were SUPER helpful and so ecstatic! They offered us as many samples as we requested, they engaged with my infant daughter, and really just seemed so cheerful overall. The ice cream is great as well there are so many options you can do. You can also just turn one of those flavors into a milkshake or sundae, have a smoothie, or get a classic like a banana split. There is plenty of space with available seating as well. We parked in the back because they have a parking lot in between themselves and the businesses behind them. Highly recommend if you want great customer service read more

We headed up here for some ice cream after a weeknight dinner out and were delighted that they were open until 10PM; so many ice cream and other dessert places close at 8 on weeknights. There is easy and free parking behind the building which was a great bonus! I had the chocolate chip cherry in a sugar cone and one scoop was plenty for an after dinner sweet treat. The chocolate chunks were huge the cherries were plentiful and delicious. Service was great and there seemed to be enough seating for everyone wanted to dine in. read more

In my experience, it's always a good sign when an ice cream shop has a line, and Graeters was no exception! Despite the line on my Saturday night visit, service was efficient and my turn at the counter came pretty quickly. I was torn between SO many delicious-sounding flavors to choose from, but I opted for mint chocolate chip. It didn't disappoint! The ice cream itself was smooth and creamy, with large, flavorful chunks of mint chocolate. I loved the large pieces of mint used and felt that it really elevated the flavor. Also, the serving was pretty substantial for the price. The shop itself is spacious and has enough seating, both inside and out, for you to sit and enjoy your cone. read more

So many choices for yummy flavors along with seasonal treats. Easy walk from the Palladium and plenty of parking in the area. Employees are very friendly and the line moves fast. You can get free samples. A couple of indoor seating areas with maybe 2 dozen seats. Good place for a date! read more

Graeter's Ice Cream in Carmel is a great place to stop in for a sweet treat. Their extensive menu has a little something for everyone. Speedy service and polite workers. The inside is clean with many tables. I got the cotton candy for me and my toddler. They offered sprinkles and a candy face for hers. Which I thought was fun... and she loved! My husband got the s'mores, and he gobbled it up. read more

When we first came to Indy this was the first ice cream shop we visited and we've been coming back since! The black raspberry chip is the perfect balance of tart and sweet. It's a crowd favorite and my personal favorite as well. I always opt for their crispy chocolate covered sprinkle waffle cone to pair it with. They are a match made in heaven really plus it does not take away from the flavors of the ice cream! The staff is always welcoming. I must have tried quite a few samples before finding my true love (black raspberry chip) and I completely appreciate that they were patient and kind about letting me try as many flavors as I wished. read more

I work right down the street, and this is a great midday pick me up. The staff is kind and I love the flavors.

I love getting ice cream, especially as the warmer days are starting to end. I tried the new boldly bearcat, which was delicious! I was a bit disappointed that i could literally see the bottom of the bowl with my $4+ scoop of ice cream. It felt really overpriced and small, especially compared to Handels and other options read more

Always amazing service. Fast and reliable. Ice cream is absolutely delicious and it's such a wide selection. It is also always clean and lovely environment. read more

All I have to say is the soft chocolate chunks in this ice cream has me hooked!!! I usually never get candy embedded ice cream because the freezing candy is too hard in my teeth! I don't know what Graeters does but that is not the case! The chocolate is soft, like biting into fudge without the fudge taste (I don't like fudge ). Do yourself a favor and get any flavor with the word "chip" in it so you can see! read more

Smooth and creamy ice cream like it should be. Great variety of flavors and all kinds of specialty items. Looks and smells like an ice cream shop should. We were there on a hot Saturday afternoon, and the line was pretty long, but even the manager jumped in to help serve. She yummy, and I'm not a true ice cream connoisseur. read more

Yelp's telling me I haven't done a review here, which I just can't imagine! 116th in FIshers/Carmel next to City BBQ off 37. Young staff is always very pleasant. PlLenty of traditional and unique flavors to try. This time, I had the Buckeye Blitz Chocolate Chip, a chocoalte peanut butter bit of heaven. #yum #ReviewsByRL read more

Love graters ice cream!! I got a strawberry milkshake and a scoop of chocolate ice cream and it always satisfies the craving! Their ice cream is smooth and creamy, and the portion is a perfect amount. It's a big shop with plenty of seating inside and out.

This is a great spot for an ice cream cone if you are in Carmel, but do be aware that this location is super busy and the customers aren't always the most patient. The staff was super nice despite being completely in the weeds on a hot evening. I recommend giving their seasonal Peach flavor a try as well as their Banana Chip. They both were quite delightful and refreshing!!! read more

I go to graders a couple times a month and their ice cream really is top quality. This last time I went, we got a banana split with two ice cream flavors that are one of our favorites: boldly bearcat and strawberry chip. They were to die for! There is a lot of indoor seating and outdoor seating. It's a great place to hang out and eat some delicious ice cream. Their service is one of the fastest I have ever seen is all the way to the door. read more

They have the creamiest ice cream I have had. A lot of unique flavors to try. The lines can be long but it will be worth the wait.

I was really excited to come to Graeter's because I've heard so many good things about it, but it was a pretty mixed bag. I really like the ambience of the spot because there's a really nice fountain and benches outside that are great to sit around and enjoy your ice cream and the shop itself is very quaint and clean. As far as the flavors go by far my favorite of the one I tried is s'mores. Usually my go to is graham central so I had to get the closest to that. I thought that was really good and definitely recommend it. The other two flavors I tried were the watermelon and the black raspberry. The watermelon was not good at all imo. I would not recommend. The black raspberry was pretty good however, but not as good as the s'mores. Overall, a good ice cream place, but not my favorite by any means. read more

I tried Graeter's for the first time the other day on an ice cream date with my sister. I loved the variety of flavors and even dairy free options. The person that served us our ice cream was great and let us try a couple flavors to see what we really wanted. There's indoor seating and outdoor benches that make for the perfect little evening ice cream spot! Even if the line is longer it went very quickly. read more

Been to Graeter's after almost a year and ordered the famous black berry chocolate chip in a scoop and an 1870 tower sundae. Always love the chunks of chocolate chips in the black raspberry ice-cream. The sundae was exotic chocolate Bundt cake and hot fudge topped with pecans. Astounding and delicious to say the least! Not too many customers on a Sunday evening, lots of empty spaces to sit and eat. Staff following the masking and safety precautions. read more

If I am ever in the mood for ice cream, I go to Graeter's ice cream in Carmel. They have a great selection of flavors. I ordered the black Raspberry chocolate chip wheele and the vanilla chocolate chip wheele as a treat to myself from Uber Eats. I have gone to the store in Carmel in the past, and it has always been a wonderful experience. It smells heavenly like an ice cream shop should be, and the staff are wonderful and very accommodating. They are willing to assist you with anything you need from the shop. You can try samples of ice cream from the shop, but only limited amount from what I recall from my last visit. The salted Caramel is excellent and the variety of chocolate chip flavors are divine!! The ice cream shop is definitely a big hit during the spring/summer season when the weather is good, so I look forward to visiting the shop when spring arrives. We all scream for ice cream as the saying goes, and Graeter's ice cream is certainly no exception!! The wheeles are fantastic and you cannot go wrong with the ice cream. It is a win-win situation, so go get some Graeter's ice cream!! Treat yourself!! read more

I went in yesterday to redeem my birthday sundae. I asked the young lady working what she suggested between The Cookie Monster sundae or the Turtle sundae. I went for the Cookie Monster. It was delicious! I rarely eat ice cream but of course I couldn't pass up a delicious free sundae. The free sundae comes courtesy of their app and I believe the only qualification is at least one purchase required during the year. I definitely prefer one cream on a warm day; but I REALLY enjoyed the sundae yesterday. read more

I'm obsessed with Graeters black raspberry chip ice cream! It is so good! If you haven't tried it, it is a MUST! Felt compelled to write this review because the staff working when I went recently were at the top of their game. They were mostly young teens and they were doing a really great job greeting staff and making the ordering process efficient. They had 5 or 6 employees behind the counter. Graeter's must be doing something right to keep these kids around because it's a rarity to see a well staffed place these days. Of course, I will be back! read more

Heavenly Graeters!! So so good. Absolutely go in here for the best ice cream in Carmel. The chocolate chunks are HUGE and so melty. Every flavor I've ever has been soooooo tasty and hits the spot. A few honorable mentions... Black Raspberry Black Cherry S'mores Coffee Flavor Get ready cause weekend nights there is for sure a line! Nothing beats grabbing a scoop and sitting outside by the fountain when its warm. Thank goodness we have graeters!!!!!! read more

I went after work during the week and it wasn't very busy so I had a short wait. The ice cream was great - this was my first time having Graeter's. There is parking on the street out front but it was full. It took me a few minutes to find a place to park elsewhere and ended up having to walk but it was a gorgeous day and I didn't have to walk far. Next visit I will make sure I pay better attention to the parking out front. The woman working the counter was very friendly also! I will definitely be going back! read more

Whoa! This is good ice cream!!! The creamy texture, the mix-ins, and the flavors of the ice creams here are incredible!! My niece had the cotton candy and loved it. I had the buckeye blitz and mint chocolate chip. Add ice cream snob to the list because I will only eat Greater's now. read more

Was able to try different flavors. Really loved the soft chocolate pieces in the black Cherry chip and black raspberry chip. Will try again.

Our FAVORITE ice cream shop!! I always get the chocolate dipped waffle cone and usually get different flavors although my most ordered are buckeye and dark chocolate brownie. Sooo good read more

This review is going to fall in the minority: I know it, because I know how much Graeter's is beloved to the Hoosier community. My only defense is: I'm not an ice cream fanatic and I've been away from Carmel for a very, very long time. Graeter's is welcoming and inviting, as are its employees and its ambience. For me, though, the ice cream is overtly creamy and rich - sometimes just too much for a pleasant summer day. I've heard that the fruit flavors are amazing, with black raspberry chocolate chip topping the list. I tasted my friend's order and was pleasantly surprised: the fruit, while dominant, is not overwhelming. My mistake must have been ordering more basic flavors as I usually steer towards cookies 'n cream, vanilla, cake batter, and cheesecake as my flavor palate. If you grew up on chain ice cream and prefer custard or frozen yogurt, this might not be what you're looking for. Then again, this might just hit the spot for you! read more

There's something so satisfying about digging into a bowl of ice cream and hitting gold. Massive chocolate chip gold that is. (Seriously! Sometimes they're the size of a golf ball and melt so nicely in your mouth). I've eaten a lot of ice cream in my day and let me tell you, Graeter's tops it all. It's simply creamier and smoother than all its rivals. They're most famous for their Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip and I know what you're thinking - "fruity ice cream is not for me." Me neither. But it's my new favorite flavor so just try it because it was surpass all of your expectations. They also sell ice cream air fresheners for your car (funny gift), candy, ice cream cakes, ice cream in pints, and t-shirts. The employees are always sharp and professional (thanks Sam for letting us sample flavors tonight!) and although there's usually a line, the wait is never astounding. read more

I can't recommend the lemon meringue highly enough! It's so delicious, and I can't wait to go back for more.

I have never had Graeter's ice cream until I visited Indiana. And oh my goodness. I am so glad I tried! I am absolutely obsessed with Toffee Chip. I don't think I like any ice cream more than this. It is my go to snack on a small sugar cone I get from grocery store. read more
