I've got to check this out. So, headed that way. When we arrived, we were greeted with a helpful and friendly vibe from the staff members behind the counter...along with the traditional ice cream shop aroma. As you look around...you'll begin to notice area nostalgic antiquities. This added a next level engagement, as we enjoyed our food and ice cream. Food-wise...we split the loaded nachos. Yummy!!!! I will say personally, I could have used a dab more of the pork...but, it was still tasty...as they were spot on with the amount if the other toppings. After that...we each got our own life cream and buy was it delicious! Definitely recommend and will return!!

The gentleman who took my order was friendly and helpful in describing some of the flavors of the 40+ they have to try. I went with the Exhausted Parent... the name says it all, but it is a coffee and bourbon flavored ice cream with chocolate chunks! SOOO GOOD! And got a Carmel Iced Latte for the road. Both are delicious. Perhaps my favorite feature of this cute stop was the bulletin board of gift cards... other patrons have donated money and filled out post it's with the instructions to take one if you fit the criteria. I absolutely love this idea! If you are ever in Marion, make sure you take the time to stop by for a sweet treat! You won't regret it!

Pie is the American dessert. And sugar cream pie, or Hoosier pie, is my favorite. My grandmother…read moreis long gone and I can't get sugar cream pie to set right, but I keep trying and keep searching for places that have it. The Pie Lady on 5 makes all kinds of pies, and does it right. She sells from her house, so check out the website, call ahead, and swing by. We got a basic sugar cream. The crust is perfect- flaky, light. The filling is kind of like custard- thick, sweet but not overly so, with a hint of coconut (must be an Indiana thing) and a sprinkle of nutmeg. I end up having it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and a pie only lasts a day or so with us. It's not quite like my grandmother's, but it's close, and it's a great pie.

After lunch, I decided to stop in this small shop for some ice cream. Although the restaurant…read more(next door) has been around for a long time, the ice cream shop has only been around about 5 years. They are next door to each other in the Bethel Pike Shopping Center north of McGalliard, so finding free parking was easy, though a little crowded. Inside the sweet shop, there are tables for guests who wish to enjoy their choices while there. At the back is a long counter with their buckets of ice cream on display. You can get samples of their flavors before purchase. Note on the right hand side is a list of daily specials that might be of use. There are also menu boards for pairings of ice cream and cookies that are available. I went with a lighter option and chose a raspberry sorbet (sherbet?) The woman behind the counter was friendly and promptly helped me with my order. She pointed out that my order qualified for a daily discount which I had missed. Very nice! Really nice tasting treat and a great price, especially with the discount. Review #3513

I love the chocolate midnight shake, but the IWU2 and Trojan sundae are pretty good as well. No free refills and water is self serve. The place does have a distinct old smell when you come in but the ice cream comes out quick and you have it with your meal or just pick it up after you are done eating which is awesome. I loved to grab ice cream and walk around town or Taylor but there's plenty of seating inside.

I don't understand the hype?…read more We stopped by Ivanhoe's for lunch during a work trip. I've been told the place is supposed to be an "Indiana destination location"... I don't get it. Ivanhoe's was ok, but nothing special. It's like a rundown and dilapidated Culver's, but with a smaller menu and the food isn't nearly as good. We got there at 11:40 and it was busier than a one-legged man in a butt kicking contest... It was literally like an AARP Club in there (we were the young whipper snappers). The service was friendly, but it took 40 minutes for us to order and get our food... Their operations were super slow and inefficient. The food itself was alright (decent pork tenderloin) and they have an ice cream menu the size of Texas, but overall it just wasn't anything to write home about. Ivanhoe's is your quintessential podunk small town Indiana restaurant, which is cool but not worth all the hype... Good? Yes. Great? No.
