Called ahead to ask if they were open for ice cream. They said they were. Drove right over. Stood in front by the door as the server went from person to person and car to car as we aren't allowed inside due to Covid. Finally after 15 minutes she rudely told us we had to order online or call to order. Why didn't they tell us that when we called to ask if they were open? We left. It will be a long time until we go back. read more

Not sure what to say about this place. I heard many good things about it so we wanted to try out their burgers. We went in to get a family order, a gentleman asked us as we were coming in if we were getting something from the grill or just ice cream I said we wanted burgers he said we turned off the grill, it was about 8pm and from what I saw they don't close till 10pm not sure if I am wrong? Second time we gave them a chance to try THE BURGERS they got our order wrong gave us someone else's order, obviously I didn't see till I got home since there's no Dine-in. read more

Lulu's Ice Cream Parlor & Treatery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Turlock, California

Food is awful. It's literally just frozen food you can get at Safeway, I promise. I ordered a veggie burger and it wasn't even constructed when I got it. It was the bread and the burger with the tomato and lettuce underneath -- no vegan cheese or mayo or anything on it. Hardly any fries. The ice cream is ice cream, but I'd rather just go to Oak Barrel where they make it themselves. read more

The owner is really nice and Their food is amazing however, their cashier is never friendly and the sanitation is poor. No one where's gloves. The cashier takes your money then grabs your cone with the same hands. The cook is cooking your food while scratching the back of his neck then grabbing the buns with the same hand. I was a little grossed out. and the tables are always super sticky. read more

I got a cup of "cookie dough" ice cream and there was ONE piece of cookie dough in the whole bowl. It should be called chocolate chip ice cream not cookie dough. VERY disappointed. Drove 20 mins for good ice cream. Could have just gone to the gas station and i would have been more satisfied read more

Lulu's is good, but pricey. They have a variety of french fries, nice presentation, clean. But in my opinion, Alcatraz Burger is way better. I'm not saying I would never eat here again, but for freshness quality and quantity for the same price Alcatraz Burger is better. read more

Lulu's Ice Cream Parlor & Treatery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Turlock, California

I went to Lulus a few days ago and one of the workers was extremely rude to me and my family. She was constantly giving us dirty looks, I believe her name was "Alexis". She has blonde hair, blue eyes, and was chubby. I hope the manager sees this and fixes the problem or I will no longer be a customer. read more

I been here once. its a 50 style parlor. To be honest they didnt have anythinf dairy free. And its pretty pricey. But its good and cute They even hava lil section where lil gurls can play tea party lol read more

This place was really good and the kids loved it. They also had a little play area for our 2 year old. She was content and they also serve food here as well. The staff was friendly. Will definitely be going back to this place again. Definitely better than basken and Robin read more

This place has the best burgers in town . The meat is large enough to go over the sides . It was served with enough tomatoes & a gigantic slice of fresh lettuce, the French fries are good also. The girl who took our order was very friendly. The place is decorated in a fashion that kids would like, very colorful. read more

See all

The ice cream is ok the service could improve and cleaning is required. Unfortunately our table and all of the tables were in need of the good deep cleaning read more

If Pinterest and Etsy had a baby its name would be Lulu. A totally adorable and delicious ice cream parlor. We came up from the bay to visit family and my cousin took us to this place. I was floored and almost forgot to order because I just fell in love with the décor. Not only is the place appealing to the eye its also serves very appetizing ice cream. I ordered a scoop of tin roof (I think that's what it was called). It had chocolate syrup, vanilla, and peanut butter cups. The single scoop looked like a double. Between the three of us it was less than $10. Which I think is really affordable considering you can probably spend that much on just one serving at cold stones. The place was practically empty around noon on the Sunday we went. Tons of front row parking. Too bad this place isn't closer. I would definitely be a regular. read more

part time employees are treated unfairly. No explanations for less hours and get rid of you before three months

On the expensive side but delicious the lady I'm assuming who owns the place or maybe manages it was very kind and welcoming

The owner is very rude. If she's there we intentionally don't go in. The staff is completely wonderful but the owner really doesn't know how to speak to customers and is has an attitude Problem. We do love the veggie burgers though some of the best we've had. read more

Nice staff. Ayana really made picking ice cream less overwhelming. Cute/ perfect kids portions and I can say the cotton candy tastes like cotton candy.. I thought I bit into a unicorn will definitely be back. read more

Two patty melts made to order and family fries to share. Juicy, delicious sandwiches, crispy krinkle cut fries,,and quick service. Always a great "go to" when we're on this side of town...old fashioned burgers and a milkshake to top it off. read more

My 1st time. Great service, made me feel like I was at my friends house. The burgers are "dedelicious"!! The party melt was on this swirled eye and grilled to prefection..(the bread was not overbuttered and soggy!) I'm coming back...the sweet potatoe fries were not greasy either...so full no room for ice cream..coming back soon! read more

This place is good, but I would call in advance if you're ordering more than one meal... it just seemed to take forever. They're hamburgers are pretty good, nothing fancy, it's exactly like I make them at home ice cream is great! read more

Lulu's in Turlock is the best! This vintage style ice cream parlor is adorable! They have great decor, a toy area for the little one's, and old fashioned candy jars filled with everything from huge jaw breakers to candy cigarettes, lol. This ice cream parlor serves food and you can even have birthday parties here! The best part of Lulu's is that they even have $.99 ice cream cones for the kidos!! It is a pleasure to welcome Lulu's to Turlock! XoXo Lulu's!!! read more

Decent burgers, great shakes and ice cream. I'd say they are a bit overpriced for the food, but they have promotions to give you discounts on Mondays (banana splits) and the service is friendly. We had to clean a table for ourselves when we got there and paid $25 for 2 burger meals and a shake. Burgers were just ok. I would say the selling point of this place is certainly the shakes and ice cream, the quality of which i would give it 4 stars for. Taking the food into account as well though I would say they could do with slightly cheaper pricing or some sort of twist to their food to make it more appealing. read more

Best place in Turlock to get Ice cream. Cute little shop with amazing staff. Went here multipul times. Lots of flavors to choose from as well as new flavors almost everyday. read more

Came in for a milkshake and it was good, nothing bad about the customer service and the flavor of ice creams and the amount of toppings is pretty impressive. They do have food as well like burgers and mexican food so I'll try them out sometime. I do appreciate that they even have beers as well so if a family wants to swing by they have all the bases covered for them. read more

This place was a staple in our family, but after today no more. Service was very poor. Will not be going back in ever again. Such a shame that people tend to forget that customers are what keep your business alive. So hard to find service anymore. read more

Please do something with your staff. The young girls working the counter don't seem to care or notice anything anymore. We walked in and it wasn't busy as all, but the place was filthy.. There was garbage literally piled up on the floors and under the tables.. None of them had been cleared.. My husband went to get the towel and cleaner himself and they were out. Finally after about 20 min if waiting we had someone come and wipe our table down. Honestly, it made me lose my appetite. Also, the girl cooking and working behind the counter kept scratching and rubbing her nose. I'm not sure I'll be coming back.. I've been a faithful custom since they first opened.. There's no excuse for the way the restaurant looked.. There's also debris stuck down in the seats. Yuck! read more

Years ago service & food items use to be nothing but delightful. My last 2 experiences haven't been that at all. I'm not one to complain so I let my second to the last experience go without going back for them to re-make my Lulu's shakes which they put peanuts in. But today my daughter & I asked for a chocolate & banana shakes. They informed us they were out of chocolate ice cream but had other chocolate options. So we chose rocky road. After about almost 10 minutes we were told they were out of bananas ‍. But yet she proceeded to make our shakes. We felt bad to reject them only because they were quite busy. When we opened the cups they were only 3/4 full & my daughter found a hair on her cup. The place was very busy & had only 2 high school looking aged girls working. This place is walking distance from my house but probably won't go back read more

Cute ice cream and burger/sandwich place. I recently went to have some ice cream, which was good and very reasonably priced. One note about the seating - there are booths against the wall and a few large tables to sit at, so when it's crowded, you will probably need to sit at a table with other people. If you enjoy the company of others, this will be a fun experience. If not, there are a couple benches outside where it is a little more private. read more

Lady working there yelled and threatened to call the cops on a customer who was there with family; who wasn't doing anything wrong. Made everyone uncomfortable; won't ever be coming here again. And I advise people that are darker shades of brown to stay away unless you want to be harassed for being brown and threatened with the cops. read more

It's a cute place with a throwback theme. Service could have been a bit better but overall it was good. I liked the atmosphere and the selection reminded me of a 50's diner. Would recommend. read more

If you love a traditional burger and an old fashioned ice cream parlor this small town joint is the place for you. They don't have an extensive menu (no salads and only a few types of burgers) but the food is amazingly tasty, the service is good, and it's always clean and well lit. It's perfect for little people. It does get crowded on Sunday's after the church crowd gets out but you can beat the crowd by ordering ahead and picking up your order. I highly recommend the Western Bacon Cheeseburge which has an onion ring the size of your hand on it. With a side of the garlic fries. Yummy!! read more

I'm really in the middle with this place. More like 3.5 stars. There was nothing wrong honestly with this place. But that's really it. I've actually only been here once and I've been hearing about it since I was in high school. The place is a bit run down and kinda hot inside. The staff are nice but kinda not that warm. My cousin got an ice cream she liked and I got the cookie dough balls. It was okay but a bit pricy especially since you only get 1 piece. Not bad it's just not too special. read more

First time. Last time. Went out for ice cream at a new spot and we asked if it was okay to sit at one of the empty booths inside. They said yes, and after we ordered and paid, we asked if they could wipe the booth down since there was trash all over the seats and food crumbs on the table. Without saying a word the worker quickly wiped it down and didn't say anything when we told her thank you a few times. After about five more families came in, ordered and got their food before us - we went to ask for an update as we only ordered French fries and a grilled cheese. They had us wait at the counter for a few more minutes before handing us the plate that had been set aside from the rest of the prepared orders. I had watched the entire time and never had they set aside the orders that were ready, they were immediately placed on the shelf for pick up. Not ours. Guess we should have been grateful to have some crumbs of food already on our table instead of asking for a sanitized one. Nice one guys, real professional. read more

Good food, friendly service, really cute and fun atmosphere, outside seating is dog friendly. Try to avoid the hours from 3-5 ish on weekdays because it's crawling with jr. High and high schoolers. Some items are pricy, but some are really cheap. I like that they serve food as well as ice cream. Plus they serve Jantz pie, which is amazing! Definitely a great place! read more

Great food, nice staff. My kids love it here. We are never disappinted when we leave here. read more

Lulu's Ice Cream Parlor & Treatery - My step daughter on her birthday. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Turlock, California

It's taken them about 30 min to make 1 order of Nacho fries ..........something that takes 5 min tops 10 if the place was packed. So if your looking for a quick bite this isent it. read more

We came here for the name, but found the place was a bit of a dive. Food and ice cream quality wasn't the best, but it wasn't horrible either. The kids loved it and it's good to see places like this still exist. read more

This establishment has good good and a casual atmosphere. Some of the best items to order (in my opinion) are the Lulu Melt, the curly fries, and their milkshakes. Although this a good place to get food, the only downside is that it gets very busy here, at times such as lunch hours or after the nearby schools get out. In addition to how busy it gets, the high school students love to hangout there after school which is around 2:50. This may not seem like a problem but they are loud, and rowdy and made these poor employees clean up their messes (I know from personal experience). I thought I'd add the part with the high schoolers if you want to save yourself from a headache! read more

I love the food. They have yummy bacon cheeseburgers and fries. I enjoyed the strawberry milkshake. You can order your food online and pick it up, this is a big plus when you're busy and need to eat and run. The employees have always been courteous. read more
