I tried the caramel almond which was rich without being overly sweet. Was very full after eating it but it was a great bite and the caramel swirls and almonds were mixed in consistently. My friend got the charlie brown which was a light peanut butter with chocolate ice cream. I usually don't like peanut butter and find it as a flavor to be very overpowering, but that flavor was also quite light. All around good creamery!

I visited your ice cream shop recently and wanted to share some feedback regarding my experience…read more While your ice cream is quite good, the customer service fell far short of what is acceptable. My group stood in line at the second window after the first one was taking a long time, only to watch multiple people get served elsewhere while we were ignored. When we moved back to the first window, the second one suddenly opened. When I calmly mentioned this confusion, the employee working--who identified herself as Tessa--became defensive, rushed our order aggressively ("what else, what else, what else"), and then loudly talked about me right in front of me, telling someone else that I was "freaking out" and claiming that window only opens when it's busy (even though there was clearly a line). She also made a point to mention that the interaction was recorded on camera. As someone who runs an organization where customer service is our number one priority, this was a disappointing display of a lack of emotional intelligence and basic hospitality. A simple acknowledgment of the confusion or a polite apology would have instantly resolved the situation. Additionally, if there is a specific rule about when the second window is supposed to open, there really needs to be a clear sign posted. Given how many out-of-town visitors you receive, relying on unwritten rules only leads to frustrated customers. I hope you will use this as a coaching opportunity for Tessa on de-escalation and customer relations.

I turned around and went down the street and found this little shop. Just before I went in this little shop, I smelled a wonderful smell. It smelled like ribs on a smoker. I turned and saw a large smoker on the back of a truck and a gentleman next to the truck happen to be the owner of the shop. Big Mike was his name. I asked about the smoker. He said he and his do some catering as well. Mike invited me into the shop. Got me a cup of coffee and chatted with me for a little bit of time. The coffee was awesome. They had breakfast sandwiches other things there as well but I had already eaten. I will be stopping back to try a snack, and especially to get more coffee. Big Mike was awesome. I took his card so that I could possibly ask him to do some catering at some point. This place is worth your stop whether it be baked treats, coffee, or ice cream. As the menu look great. I will follow up after I eat some snacks.

I tried to go into this establishment with my service dog and the woman said "no dogs allowed" when I responded that he was a service dog, she looked at the man working said "where's his vest".

I felt very unwelcome and I put the dog in my car and came back to tell them that not all disabilities were visible and their actions made me feel incredibly unwelcome and distressed. To which, the they chuffed while the customers laughed and the man said "all I did was ask you where his vest was". No sir, that's not all you did. It's really easy to Google the laws and to see that you can ask questions, ones that I will happily answer when done in a way that feels respectful. All I wanted was ice cream man!

I've had their ice cream before and know it's top notch. I chose a maple walnut on a waffle cone and my husband 1 scoop of strawberry and a scoop of coconut almond. Mine was delicious and the cone was crispy and fresh and actually one of the best I've ever had. My only minor complaint is that I had zero walnuts in my ice cream! That could have just been because it was the bottom of the tub??? The flavor of the maple was excellent. My husband loved his flavors but said he liked the strawberry best. They had seating outside.

Their prices are reasonable and the serving sizes generous. The "Creamery" part of their name is exemplified in their soft serve. It is creamy, thick, and doesn't melt right away like other ice creams might. I've tried the soft serve, hard flavors, and their version of a flurry/blizzard/etc. and can recommend all. A cool fact about the Creamery: it was opened by the local Masonic Lodge and their goal is to use profits to give back to the community. Very cool. Not much else to say here. Head to Cazenovia to check out the lake, have dinner at one of the great local restaurants, and finish up with dessert at the Nelson Creamery.

I am partial to soft serve but have tried both their hard icecream and soft serve. I prefer their soft serve but wish they had more flavors. I tried the classic chocolate twist and the two berry twist soft serves. In the two berry twist, I didn't like the pink flavor- it was too icy and more like a sorbet/dole whip than true soft serve. I liked the purple flavor thought! Overall, I still frequent Sweet Melissa's for softserve close to Cornell! Would recommend!
