    Feels like spring but tastes like summer! We tried out this family-owned creamery in Cazenovia…read moreduring their grand opening weekend. We already can't wait to go back! Pros: delicious milkshakes, plenty of hard ice cream, sundae and milkshake options, large sizes for great prices, friendly staff that offered suggestions and free samples, easy parking (street or in the plaza right in front), fun location that allows for a treat and a walk down to the lake! Cons: easy to miss! Tip-- It's attached to Dave's Diner! Limited outdoor seating, potential for longer wait times if the line gets long and hard to read the menu with the sun glare We love taking trips out to Caz and now this is another reason to make one!

    Soft serve was "ok". Lower butterfat % than Byrne dairy and many other ice cream places in the…read morearea. Soft serve mix is rated by percentage of butterfat and it goes from 3.5% to around 14%. Some places use 3.5 because it's the highest profit. You'll notice signs that say "soft serve" but not the words "ice cream". Well at this place it is my opinion that they use 10% which is just enough to call it ice cream. Its okay, not as creamy as many other soft serve ice cream places around. The hard ice cream was good. I wish they were all required to post the butterfat % of their soft serve. So I'd give it a two stars, but in all fairness I eat soft serve daily and might notice things others won't.

    Definitely gourmet ice cream and chocolates found here. This place is the bees knees if you like…read moresweet treats!!! They must have at least 30 flavors of homemade ice creams and as well as an absolutely ridiculous amount of homemade chocolates and treats. If you like ice cream, there's no way you won't find a flavor here that you love. This is a specialty store and they give out free samples of their ice cream with a smile. You can watch them making ice cream in the back. They even have some non dairy based flavors. They have virtually all of their ice cream flavors in to go containers (quart size) and prices are very reasonable since it's made in house and is such high quality. If you order say chocolate chip, it's gonna be loaded with chips. Honestly, I wish I worked here. What else can I say? Super friendly folks inside and there's tons of free parking right out front and on the side. Oh they also have custom made ice cream cakes!

    Ordered a kitty size and a large with whip cream and it was 15$ insane price for the sizes we were…read moregiven. The ice cream was normal nothing special or exciting really but the real reason I'm doing this review is due to the service I received, two different employees were going back and fourth taking my order and it was so confusing. They both took my order separately like 6 times because they just wouldn't stay to wait to hear for my small order. Very confusing for me and made me question my self, will not be going here again

    CASH ONLY! I loved this place. Their soft serve was really great, and they also offer hard ice…read morecream with vegan options, plus a gluten free and vegan cookies and cream. I got the chocolate soft serve with rainbow sprinkles and it was the perfect sweet treat. If you only want a little something, you can get a kids size like I did, but they also have small, medium, and large sizes too. One thing to know is that it is cash only. If you do not have cash, they may offer an IOU like they did for us. There is an ATM next door, but I had issues with it not accepting my card, and my friends had the same problem, so I ended up paying in quarters. They were very kind and patient about it though. The line can get pretty long, but it moves quickly, so it is not a bad wait at all. It would be nice if there was more seating, especially since so many people come here, but overall it is still a really great stop for ice cream.

    Cute seasonal ice cream spot in Ithaca!…read more Located in downtown- the line can get pretty long in the evenings- even on weekdays. Cash only so be prepared. 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!

    I came here by chance because I got a gift card from somebody. I have to say their chicken pot pie…read morewith a puff pastry crust was literally the best pot pie I've ever tried. (don't let my mom read this review.) it's visually stunning and incredibly tasty. I will be back.

    Such a cute cafe and a lot more spacious than I had anticipated! Staff is also very friendly…read more There are a variety of drink options, pastries (sweet and savory), and even some grab and go lunch items available. They also sell some very cute greeting cards, earrings, magnets, etc. We ordered two drinks (Ube Espresso, Crème Brûlée latte), a flower pot mini cake (chocolate cake with raspberry filling in a decorative flower pot), a crème brûlée donut, and a spinach puff. The desserts were good, with the flower pot mini cake being our favorite. The chocolate cake was moist and the raspberry filling was balanced. We didn't love the flower frosting on top, but it was very pretty. The donut was very unique and filled to the brim with a fluffy cream - though we both thought it could've had a bit more flavor. The dough was perfect - soft and pillowy. The crème brûlée top made for a fun eating experience as the thin hard sugar had a satisfying crunch. The spinach puff was also delicious. Flaky pastry and cheesy filling - very comforting. The stars of the show were the drinks. The coffee was superb - balanced, smooth, and rich in flavor. While I didn't find the ube flavor to stand out, the ube espresso drink was still one of my favorite coffee drinks I've had. The Crème Brûlée latte was my friend's favorite - it was the perfect dessert drink. It even had the sugar crust on top. I would definitely come back to try more of their menu!
