My friends and I were craving a sweet treat after dinner and decided to come here as they seemed to have a lot of options! I opted for the Nutella crepe which came with strawberry and banana slices as well as white chocolate sauce and Nutella. It was delish and definitely hit the spot! It was $13 so the price was pretty fair. It was also large enough to split between 2 people. There is plenty of seating but the place filled up pretty quick while I was there. They also had bubble waffles & sundaes which I am interested in trying in the near future! read more

Freaking fantastic. The desserts here are no joke. Stopped here for dessert on our way home from dinner and wow. The portions were so big this could have been dinner itself! I ordered the Halleez special bubble waffle and added a scoop of chocolate on top. Like over the top delicious! And my sister in law got the strawberry cheesecake bubble waffle which was also fantastic. Great service, plenty of seating in this cute spot! Highly recommend! read more

Halleez in Lackawanna, NY is my go-to whenever I'm in town. The Nutella waffle with strawberries and bananas is a must -- warm, perfectly crisp on the outside, soft inside, and loaded with fresh fruit and rich Nutella. So good every time! Great customer service. The customer service there was outstanding. read more

Specialty offerings of Belgian liege waffles, fresh crepes, sweet smoothies and drinks, and a huge selection of ice creams (Including Qashta & Biscoff) in a quiet, warm, soothing and welcoming space. Bring your sweet tooth, they aren't kidding when they say it's "the ultimate sweet spot". Be patient, as each dessert is freshly baked to order, so part of the fun is waiting for the fragrance of your waffle or crepe to permeate through the space, calling you to indulge in the decadent flavor and texture of a freshly cooked treat! read more

Welp. This place is my new addiction. I fully intend to try everything on the menu and will find an excuse to end every (rare) night out with hubby or friends at Halleez. So far I have had the Nutella bubble waffle with a big old scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, and most recently, Nutella sushi crepe. I was super curious to know what a sushi crepe was and what a cute, tasty treat (photos below)! I am clearly a sucker for anything Nutella, so next I'll be trying the rolled Nutella crepe, and can't wait to report back. Bottom line: this place is next level. You can't find inventive treats like this anywhere else in Buffalo. The waffles and crepes are freshly made and served to you warm, with your gooey toppings. I honestly think about it all the time, it's a problem. Great owners too! See ya soon! read more

We were really excited to try this place out during our trip to Buffalo. When we entered, we went straight to the register and the guy up front immediately went to the back room for several minutes before helping up. He was very disheveled and inefficient with everyone's order but it took nearly 25 mins to get our food with only 2 orders infront of us. The space is really cool modern looking room and quite cozy, but really wasn't pleasant as a group of teenage boys (who the one working seemed to know) couldn't go 2 words without swearing. It's a letdown because the food itself was really good but there were service issues and smaller issues (like no napkins at all) that would have us not come back. read more

It took me a little longer than expected, but I finally came back after having truly enjoyed the Yelp Elite experience here a little while ago. This visit I wound up going with the Purple Rain Bubble Waffle, which if my memory serves me correctly, was what I had mentioned in the Elite experience review would be what I'd try next, and again was super impressed with what I had. The bubble waffle is definitely a less dense and airy waffle, but was perfectly made and the black raspberry ice cream and blueberries were super fresh. The white chocolate chips and sauce plus regular chocolate sauce were very good. The tartness of the blueberry and raspberry in the ice cream helped to balance out the sweetness. Really enjoyed this visit, and there are still a few other waffle recipes and other treats I want to try here, and I'm sure it'll continue to impress. read more

New dessert option in Lackawanna that just opened up in November of 2021. Nice and clean, homemade ice cream . Huge, indulgent portions (I recommend sharing) . My father and I shared the Purple Rain Bubble waffle. I really enjoyed the fresh tasting black raspberry ice cream and the bubbles in the waffles broke off easily to make for a nice sized bite and easy eating . The loads of white chocolate made it a bit too sweet for me , I would go lighter on the sauce next time . Menu is limited but I found there are lots of different of combinations of waffles/ crepes with ice cream/toppings to choose from. I'd go back again with friends when I have a sweet tooth hankering! Hope this business does well! read more

Shocked by all the amazing reviews. Came in to grab one waffle and there was no one in line in front of me. I thought the guy was making my waffle because it was the same one I ordered and it looked like he was handing it to me so I tried to take it and he was super rude to me. It was for some other person who had been waiting since way before I got there. Ended up taking over 20 minutes to get it, which is insane because there wasn't anyone in line ahead of me. Overall the guy working here seemed a lot more interested in talking to his friends that were hanging out than doing his job in a timely fashion. Would not recommend. read more

Walking in, you're greeted with the sweet smell of waffles cooking and chocolate. The inside is very lovely, decor is modern yet subtle. A little too quiet on the music though, myself and my friend who decided to stop on felt like we were whispering the entire time. Decided to indulge in a purple rain and lotus dessert on a bubble waffle and Leigh waffle respectively. Although good, the desserts came smothered in syrups and very sweet to the point if hurting my teeth. The ice cream was smooth and creamy which almost helped even that out. We did try a raspberry Redbull drink which was good but nothing to write home about. Was really expecting more of a raspberry flavor. Took home some cheesecake and it was delicious! Would like to try some other toppings. Maybe stop in for another dessert with half the syrup on it. read more

It was huge and made with the same fresh ingredients. We also tried the pistachio shake which was light, creamy, and had chopped pistachios in it. It was super yummy and I can't wait to try some more of their shakes and crepes. read more

I stopped by here recently and was quite impressed and intend to return. I didn't have the time for something like their bubble or liege waffles so I went with the Qashta shake and it didn't disappoint either. There's pistachios both in and on top of the shake that went very well with the Qashta. They also have sundaes, smoothies, and redbull. Everything is reasonably priced between $6-$13 plus extras. It wasn't very busy when I was there so everything was made pretty fast but they seemed set up to handle it being very busy. Their dining room was nice and open and could accommodate a good number of people. This is definitely a spot worth checking out after a nice dinner in the area. read more

We absolutely love coming here. We live way up in the North Towns but this is completely worth the drive and we've been known to make a late night run down to Halleez when we need a special treat. Most times, we've gone at off peak hours, so there has been plenty of seating and we've gotten our food pretty quickly. During peak hours, it's definitely a little slower, but also totally worth the wait. The waffles are one of our favorites, as are the crepes. I really enjoy the Biscoff flavor. We've also enjoyed the baklava. My personal favorite is the chai tea - it is the perfect balance of spices, sweetness, and actual tea. A lot of chai teas don't actually feature the flavor of the chai. But this one does it perfectly. The staff is friendly and there's plenty of parking, plus clean bathrooms. We haven't had a single thing we haven't enjoyed and we've tried a good chunk of what's on the menu. Overall, this is a hidden gem and you should go check it out as soon as possible. read more

That said, clearly they've been burned before... or maybe I just recognize my own people. Either way, worth it for the custard alone. And make sure you plan to go right home. This way, you can buy some of their hard ice cream to keep in your freezer.

Such a cute spot in Orchard Park right off of the main strip. Great ice cream, quick service, and a…read moregreat area outside with picnic tables to sit and eat. They have the traditional soft serve flavors with rotating Dole Whip flavors and Perry's hard serve ice cream, along with sundaes, slushies, and dog treats too! Would recommend, I will certainly be coming back.

This business recently opened around Memorial Day weekend. This is a great addition and well…read morethought business to have close to the village of Orchard Park. The location was a little tricky to find as its situated not close to the street, and to be honest if my friend wouldnt have saw the open sign, we wouldnt have found it. If you find yourself in Orchard Park, close to the village it shares the same lot in the back as Stephen K . TIlles Attorney at Law. My friend and I thought the prices were comparable to other local icecream places in the area. Staff was friendly, even though its a fairly newer business they did offer a lot for not even being open two months. On the menu, were sundaes, icecream, slushies, milkshakes, village treats, sanwiches, and even treats for your pooch. Recommend to support this newer business, next time your in the area or there is an event going on.

I've been told to come here pretty much once a week since it opened. Since I was finally in the…read morearea, I decided to check it out and my goodness, I am mad at myself for not coming sooner!!! This place is amazing! Probably the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had. So many different ice cream flavors and probably 6-8 different types of cookies, all bigger than your head. For my foodie friends, try the ice cream sandwhiches. You can get two cookies of your choice, with vanilla, chocolate or twist soft serve ice cream inside it. Too much for one person so make sure to bring your friends! They also make cookie towers which are their cookies smothered in buttercream frosting. I'm looking forward to getting one for my husband for his birthday! Will definitely be back!

From the friendly workers to the huge menu, they don't miss a beat here. I have never had a bad experience. Every single thing I've tried on the menu has been delicious, carefully prepared, and fairly priced. There is a reason there is always a line here! But dont let the line scare you - they move very quickly so you won't be waiting long! There is ample parking and their hours are long so you'll have plenty of reasons to stop here for a sweet treat!

The PB pretzel paradise was a fun flavor. There was plenty of mini chocolate-covered pretzel balls.

Route 20 Ice Cream

Oh my ICE CREAM GOODNESS!!!…read more Route 20 Ice Cream made these two brothers oh so happy!!! My brother wanted "custard" so I yelped and found Route 20 was minutes away. Pulling in you can't help but smile at the attractive store front that looks like an old fashioned gas station. They offer an incredible assortment of Perry's Ice Cream (local deliciousness for you out of towners) but my brother wanted custard so he went with chocolate and since it's the season I chose pumpkin spice. Nicely priced and the initial tastes were yummy ,. service by the way was excellent. But then we saw it ... the train caboose with signage that said come on over and eat inside. It was a trip back in time soooooo cool and fun!! Old issues of the Buffalo News and Popular Mechanics. You were pulled back in time and were waiting for the train to start moving. We hung out for some time just enjoy a journey back in time leading to reminiscing about when we were boys. So much fun and adventure all for the cost of a really good ice cream cone!!

New this year, they have stuffed waffle cones, which is a soft serve of your choice with a tunnel down the middle filled up with your favorite sauce. My kids love the variety of dips they have. The woman who cashed us out highly recommended the coconut dip. Parking is plentiful and they have a handful of picnic tables to sit at outside. Bonus: Come on opening day for a free kiddie cone (hard or soft serve). Usually they open on March 1st, but may be delayed slightly if weather isn't great. This year, they opened on March 5th. (Check their social media for more details).
