Yummy soft serve!…read more Interesting flavor options for mix ins/flavor bursts! I got a small vanilla soft serve with the cheesecake flavor burst. The flavor burst was quite artificial tasting- it didn't taste like other cheesecake flavored things which I usually love. It was more like artificial sugar cookie? I preferred the vanilla soft serve by itself. Portions are large! Would still return but would skip the cheesecake flavor burst.

My husband and I stopped by last week after getting hot and sweaty walking at Watkins Glen State Park and walking around town over a very hot Fourth of July weekend. I wanted a cold treat, and Glen Dairy Bar was the perfect choice. It's adorable - it has that classic dairy spot look that harkens back to the 40s and 50s. We walked up, waited for just a minute, and then ordered an ice cream to share. Their menu is huge and has something for everyone. They have soft serve, hard ice cream, frozen yogurt, sundaes, flurries, smoothies, and more. We had a vanilla soft serve with a cake batter flavor blend in a cake cone, and it was exactly what I wanted. With plenty of parking, an outside seating area, a great menu, and good (and very fast) customer service, what's not to like?! I'd definitely stop by on the next hot day I spend in Watkins Glen!

Imagine asking, "What would an ice cream stand be like if it were crossed with a fine FLX winery in a beautiful farm setting?"--that's exactly the vibe here. Elevated, serene, and absolutely delicious. The facility and grounds are immaculate, with a peaceful, pastoral atmosphere that makes you want to linger. The staff was warm and welcoming, and they generously offered samples so we could explore the flavors before committing (dangerous, because they're all incredible). We ultimately chose three flavors: * Cookie Monster (Real Cookies & Cream) -- Their take on cookies & cream is next‑level. It's built on their handcrafted vanilla cream base and loaded with hearty chunks of their own legendary chocolate chip cookies. Think of an ice cream sandwich turned inside out--rich, decadent, and deeply satisfying. * Fleur Bleu -- A gorgeous blend of local organic blueberries, subtle French lavender, and their classic vanilla cream. It's delicate, floral, and beautifully balanced. This one kept us slowing down each bite just to savor the nuance. * Ditch Mint Chip -- Made with hand‑picked fresh mint and dark chocolate chips. Bright, refreshing, and leagues above the artificial mint flavor you get elsewhere. It was excellent, though admittedly overshadowed by the other two standouts. The frozen custard itself is among the best we've ever tasted--rich, creamy, and unbelievably smooth thanks to their signature use of local duck eggs. Even the vanilla base was a sleeper hit, with a depth of flavor you don't expect until it hits you. The setting is perfect for a Finger Lakes outing. Whether you're spending the day visiting wineries, hiking the gorges and waterfalls, or just exploring the region, you need to make this a stop on your route. It's one of those places that elevates your whole day. A truly special spot. We'll be back.

We ordered one chocolate cannoli which was absolutely delicious- the filling is just sweet enough! She gave us an extra plain cannoli for free that had been mistakenly filled which was also very sweet. Make sure to ask about the history of Scuteri's- very interesting! Go support local shops! Overall, I would recommend and will definitely return if I am in the area!

The cashier who treats you like family always lets new customers try their filling on a spoon before buying. Highly recommend this spot after a days drive.

It's not made to order or even the day of (which it's very simple food and only takes a minute or so to prepare, so i don't get why). There is a "packed date" on the container when you get your food. (Can't say if this is true for the pretzel though, but definitely applies to the other 3 snack items). Would definitely not recommend this cafe to anyone unless they're absolutely starving. Eat before/after you visit here. Turkey BLT wrap 5/10 Mayo comes on the side so it doesn't get soggy. Smart. Wrap was very skimpy. There was maybe 1 or 2 slices of lunch meat turkey in it, and a slice of bacon. See photo. Not worth the price at all. Pasta salad 4/10 SUPER DRY. Was like eating plain wet noodles. Probably because it sat overnight. Needs more dressing for sure. The combination of ingredients were good together though. See photo. Iced latte with caramel 5/10 Couldn't even taste the caramel. Plenty of milk, but it was just poured in.. Not even frothed like a latte usually is. It was just like drinking a plain flavorless iced coffee. Sugar is separate to add yourself, which I did not know until half of my drink was gone. Suggestions for improvement: Fresh is best! Prepare and cook meal items to order/day of.
