The variety of flavors can't be beat! The ice cream was so delicious and the workers were sweet and helpful. Also love the ingenuity of the ordering system. All around a great experience! read more

If you ever go to Jasper, this is a MUST visit place. Your tour will be incomplete without going here and trying their ice cream. They have so many amazing flavours to choose from and they have few very creative names for some flavours. Looks like a family owned place. The person taking order was very friendly, however the person serving was not so, but that doesn't matter as ice cream was so perfectly good. We tried Dark Vader and Strawberry Fields flavours. Dark Vader is dark chocolate ice cream with dark chocolate ice cream with dark chocolate chips. That has to be the BEST chocolate ice cream I've ever had in my life. Strawberry Fields is one of their hand made ice cream's and it's so dreamy creamy and so flavourful. Again I can say Best strawberry ice cream I have ever had in my life. Please go to Jasper and please try ice cream here. read more

The shop is clean and welcoming. Above all, the ice cream is delicious. There were five of us in our group, and we make quite a few ice cream stops during our travels. The ice cream here is among the very best we've had anywhere. The one disappointment was that they did not offer samples (deducted one star from review because of this). Maybe sampling not needed because all flavors are delicious! read more

It looks like a cute pink house from the outside, very inviting. My granddaughter and I were most anxious to stop in for some ice cream after dinner. Some of the fun of taking my granddaughter for ice cream disappeared when we hit a few obstacles inside. The first was no samples, which she wanted. They have signs all along the plexiglass ice cream wall stating no samples. The second obstacle was you pay before you order. You decide what size ice cream you want and pay the cashier, who gives you a poker chip to present to an ice cream scooper behind the plexiglass wall. I found having that procedure explained to me when I just tried to order an ice cream annoying. The third obstacle was dealing through the plexiglass wall. Me and the ice cream scooper ended up not on friendly terms. My scoop of Grandma's Caramel Machiano was very good and my granddaughter enjoyed her waffle cone of something. It is just a shame the shop has to be so restrictive so no one gets a taste or walks out with a scoop for free. read more

I read the reviews for this place and I don't know what everyone is talking about. My wife and I had the best experience here. The shopkeepers are warm and welcoming. Just a warning, they might be low key witches. They claim that their sorbet's are dairy free, but I swear they are so creamy that they could be mistaken for ice cream. A delightful treat for those of us who can't have dairy. Overall, highly recommended. If you're in Jasper AB, stop by Grandmas, you won't be disappointed. read more

Grandma's Place - Storefront - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Jasper, Alberta

Ice cream is delicious, there's no doubt about that, but the whole consumer experience is very uncomfortable. As soon as I walked into the store, I was loudly scolded for not being allowed to take photos, and there were so many rules inside the store - no sampling, no getting close to the display, etc. I understand that businesses have their own regulations, but could they be a bit more polite in their tone? I came to spend money, not to repay a debt. 冰淇淋好吃沒有錯，但是整個消費體驗非常令人不舒服，一進店裡就被大聲斥喝不能拍照，而且店內的規則超多，不能試吃，不能靠近觸碰平台，能理解店家有自己的規定，但是講話的語氣可以好一點嗎？我是來消費的，不是來還債的。 read more

My wife and I went into this ice cream store and immediately were confronted by employee after asking a simple question. He started yelling at us for asking about ingredients in their homemade ice cream. Then out of the blue another young employee that worked there grabbed me from behind and drag me outside and threw me on the ground over a low brick wall. I am 67 years old and he was about 20 years. Crazy family that owns this place. I would never recommend this place. I have never been assaulted in my life let alone at an ice cream store. Cuts and bruises in many places. Stay away!!! read more

Food: 1/5 we didn't even get to try. Please review service section. Service: 1/5 What a deceptive store name. When you think of "grandmas" you think of kind, warm, welcoming, and friendly. This was not the case. The old Korean owner was very rude. They do not allow pictures inside of the store which I understand is their policy. However, I stepped out of their store and took a picture and the old Korean owner came out and argued with me and asked me to see my phone. Terrible service. I would not recommend this place and I hope they don't operate any longer. Jasper, a beautiful town does not need this kind of horrible service to ruin their tourist experience. Ambiance: 1/5 service review. Don't waste your time coming here read more

Great choice of yummy flavours and friendly owner! My personal favourite Peach & Ginger Crumble. Recommend

The homemade flavors were $1 extra, but amazing! We really enjoyed the Apple Crumble and Obi Wan coffee flavor. Plus, they love dogs here. They brought out a special doggie cone when they heard one of our party was waiting outside with our dog! read more

I wish I could give zero stars. The man serving the ice cream "grandson" the larger Asian man was extremely rude! I wish I had checked Yelp before even visiting. Stay clear of this place. I promise you their ice cream isn't worth their rude mistreatment. Try Jasper's wafflato instead! The customer service was amazing and they gave a lot of gelato. Their shakes are amazing and fresh. Now I plan to head to Jaspers Waffalto to leave a 5 Star! read more

NEGATIVE STARS -1000!! Absolutely STAY AWAY from this place. Our group was antagonized by the owner from the OUTSIDE of the store. He was harassing our group with elderly and small children. He was a large Asian man who went out of the store to chase after us only for standing in front of the store while we were waiting for our large group to decide what to order. Apparently you cannot take pictures when you're outside in a tourist location either! Needless to say we took our business elsewhere after the incident, but it is evident this place has issues as many others have shared similar experiences. As a tourist something feels off about this general area as we've experienced similar attitudes in the gift shop next door, Baxters. read more

Such a cute family owned and operated place. The family members all have pins on their hats designating their relation to the titular Grandma. The only downside is that they don't give samples of their flavors but seeing the they have over 60 flavors, I understand that it would be too time-consuming to give several samples to each customer. We got the coffee crisp and the rolo flavors which were both great. The serving sizes are super generous as well. read more

Such a treat! We stopped in on labour day weekend for a cone and braced ourselves after reading some of the reviews on here. But it was such a treat! So many unique flavours to choose from (no samples- which is fine) both of our choices were delicious. They had both by brand ice cream and homemade ice cream to choose from and the staff were absolutely pleasant. Definitely recommend stopping by for a yummy ice cream cone! read more

Lots of flavors but the service was not the greatest. Overall, the ice cream was good and the place has dog friendly ice cream. So it was a win win for myself and my pup. read more

Ice cream was amazing, but service was AWFUL. Both staff members were extremely rude and passive aggressive - they acted as if they were doing us a favor. We asked for 2 extra spoons and the lady behind the counter gave us a rude look and grumbled about how we had already been given a spoon with each of the ice creams we ordered. 5/5 for taste, 0/5 for service. Staff ruined the entire experience. read more

It has been a while since I faced a rude staff as the one at this place. On July 19/21 I went there with my wife and friends and from the person at the door to a guy serving the ice cream they were all rude. Condescending treatment as if they were doing us a favor. I simply decided to spend my money elsewhere. After trying my friend's ice cream I was even happier to not have spent anything at this place. I'd say it was below average with a slushie consistency to it. read more

Disappointed. No place to sit, service was poor, ice cream was low quality.

I got a coffee shake which is ice cream and cold brew blended together. I should have checked the price before ordering because I was flabbergasted when they charged me $9!! The ice cream isn't even home made, it's all Nestle or Chapman's. It tasted decent but def not worth the price. There's also NO sampling ice cream flavours. read more

Well, first of all, I won't be reviewing the ice cream as is the case with most of these places the ice cream is either Nestle or Chapman's. The service however, and their archaic ordering system is the worst I've seen by far in any ice cream establishment. To get started, the man behind the ice cream counter looked annoyed that we even walked in and when my wife asked went to place her order we were told to turn around and place our order with the man at the cash register. Weird, but fine. Upon placing our order; both of us wanted 2 scoops each in a bowl, my wife received 2 poker chips each labelled with a #1 and I received 1 poker chip labelled #2. Ok? I was confused as to why we got different denomination chips for the same order, ignoring the fact that this system seems completely unnecessary but fine.. I'll play along. So we turn around to hand our poker chips to the man behind the counter who takes our flavour orders and then also seems confused. When he explains to the man behind the counter that he got our order wrong, that's where shit hit the fan... So apparently, 2 single chips is for 1 scoop in 2 separate bowls while one chip with the number 2 is for 2 scoops in a single bowl. All I want is freakin ice cream, not a flop, turn, and river. (poker reference for you non-poker players) When I voiced my displeasure with this idiotic system he dropped the ice cream scoop, a la drop-the-mic style, and aggressively advised that if I wasn't happy to just turn around, get a refund, and get out. The ice cream was delicious but do yourself a favour and get it at literally ANY other ice cream store. read more

I'm glad I chose this place for my ice cream! They had lots of flavours to choose from and some of them are home made. They even had a ice cream cone for my dog waiting outside! Lovely people! read more

This ice cream shop sits off the Main Street in Jasper town. You have to order at the register first, they give you a token then you can go pick out your ice cream. There are a lot of flavors and was disappointed that we couldn't sample any before purchasing. We still bought some cause it was a hot afternoon and we were craving lol. Staff was nice and shop was clean. There are other ice cream shops around the corner if you want to compare. read more

Not impressed by the service. They have many flavors. They don't allow you to taste the flavors, which ended up with a child that was dissatisfied with the flavor. read more

The place is a down to earth candy and ice cream shop done in pink--but grandma brings it to life! She is a bubbly personality that bring people back just to chat with her. The candy selection is lower than usual for a candy store these days but has all the basics. Ice cream and frozen yogurt selection is good. Seating is on benches covered by teddy bears and there is a chalk board for the kids to draw on. It might sound cheesy but it is totally unpretentious. This shop really has a special spark and I know where I will be heading for more ice cream tomorrow! read more

after dinner, i'm always up for ice cream so we stopped by grandma's. from the outside, it is so, so adorable, all done up in pink with a cute bench out front. it's not AS cute on the inside, but it's still nice. the ice cream selection is pretty decent although all the ice cream is from other brands like nestle and chapman. the prices are kind of high ($4.75 for a single scoop waffle cone) considering they don't even make their own ice cream. (it's basically the same price as marble slab, which gives a bigger single scoop and is higher quality.) nonetheless, it's ice cream, one of the world's greatest treasures. the way it's scooped, if you lick too hard, your ice cream may fall off the cone. the waffle cone is tasty but whiter than it is brown. but again, it's ice cream! i'm always down for ice cream and this place delivers what it promises. read more

Where do I begin. Grandmas. What a deceptive name. What do you think of when you hear 'grandmas'... maybe something friendly, welcoming, homemade? Well.. I walked into grandmas when I arrived on Friday and noticed it was all branded ice cream from supermarkets etc which made me not so enthusiastic, so I left. The next day (Saturday), I got a craving after a wonderful dinner and caved in and decided to go get some nestle branded ice cream -- I walk in very excited and immediately see signs that there are no sampling. I turn to one of the employees and asked why they don't sample flavors (I mean seriously, how am I suppose to know what rainbow taste like?) and the manager came up to me, as if he's never been asked this question before with a look as if someone just threatened his staff, and told me I can leave. What? Whoa, did someone not get the memo on executing good customer service and being friendly? I've never been kicked out of an ice cream store in general but especially for asking to sample a flavor -- but hey! Grandmas in Jasper is a first. So if you don't want a bad, cheesy ambiance, store bought ice cream and seriously disgusting service than don't go to grandmas. Oh, and I never review on yelp -- but places like this don't deserve the business or any type of success. Stay far away -- go to the closest gas station. read more

Extremely rude service. Racist, and no samples allowed. Would give a 0 if possible. Workers were rude as soon as we walked in, place looked appealing but wasn't worth giving business to people like that. read more

RACIST AND RUDE SERVICE. Don't waste your time going there. It's not worth it. Instead I would go to scoops and loops that is right around the corner. Those people are nice and respectful. If I could give this place zero stars or even a negative rating I would. read more

No samples and industrial bin ice cream! Plus, they charge 25 cents for an extra spoon. I'd steer clear of this place.

My three kids each got 2 scoops of ice cream here, which tasted great. However, the lady in the cashier which seems to be the owner was really rude. My wife was helping my daughter with the two large scoops of ice cream with a spoon, but ice cream was melting and tilting to the side, so my wife asked the lady for a small plastic cup/bowl for the ice cream, the lady made a snarky comment "You're spooning it away, that's why the ice cream is tilting". Wow, way to treat your customer who just spent $19 for three ice creams. We left right away as my wife was just pissed at that point and so was I and our kids. Btw, the other two employees serving the ice creams were actually nice and they seems to be embarrassed with what happened. read more

3 things: 1. The Asian lady, who was in the cash register was RUDE! my daughter asking for spoon, my daughter said thank you and she didn't replied. Then the ice cream almost felt and my daughter caught it on her hand so I asked for small cup, and she was grumpy and complained and give dirty look. Really?? 2. This store DOESN'T GIVE Samples! They have alot of varieties but they can even affort small plastic spoon for customers to try??? 3. The PRICE is RIDICULOUS EXPENSIVE!! $9.95 for milk shake ??? NNOT WORTH IT and do t bother to try! Spend your money on some other restaurant or ice cream place. read more

This place is run by some cheap, money-hungry people. They don't offer samples so if you don't know how a certain flavor tastes (like "Superman" or another crazy one) you have to commit to a full scoop. The guy behind the counter was extremely arrogant too. I was visiting from the US and we call "cake" cones wafer cones there - though apparently wafer is synonymous with waffle in Canada. When I said to the guy "oh no, I wanted wafer" he gave me an attitude and the older woman came out of nowhere yelling across the room "that is a wafer cone!" Once I realized the misunderstanding, the guy said "well now you know". I guess the customer's always wrong here. Not so sure this reminds me of my grandma's. More like, order and get the hell out. read more

Unfortunately this review isn't about their ice cream as we never got a chance to try it. We were in line with no one behind us and one person in front who seems to know the staff there and they struck up a lengthy conversation which is fine but we decided to move up and browse to see what flavor options there are. After 5 mins and done ordering many cones, we would have been next but the staff decided to skip us and took the next person behind us. We just thought "ok, no problem, we'll just wait on nx one". There were more people on line now and the same staff proceeded to take the next person's order instead of ours even when the customer offered that he takes ours first since we told them that we were on line but had moved up front to see what the flavors were. At this point, we didn't want to give them our business as their prices were higher anyway than another ice cream place (Scoops & Loops) where we have been frequenting every night and they had better customer service. read more

This is probably one of the worst icecream place in the city. You are supposed to pay first and they don't offer any samples. Would never spend a penny here because of their absurd policy. read more

What kind of ice cream place doesn't have samples? Umm alright, they must have some really exclusive ice cream for them to protect every ounce? Nope, it's industrial bin ice cream. I would've walked out but they have this super controlling poker chip ordering system that has you pay upfront. To top it off...they charge you for extra spoons. These are the cheapest of the cheap spoons too. They completely flex while using them. This place should wise up and adapt before their business dries up after being leapfrogged a decade ago by the competition. read more
