I have been going here for years so I thought I would give a quick review. Oberweis is easily one of the better dessert places in the suburbs of Chicago and has so much more than just ice cream. Their milk is also really good and it is my family's favorite. They have several unique ice cream options and have a great 3 for 1 ice cream deal when buying cartons. Dining in is a great idea as their inside is a great vibe for a group or friends or even with family. They have board games inside and chess boards set up at tables which is really unique and cool. Definitely go here for some great dessert options or to grab some milk for the house! read more

FIRST! Their basic flavors remain relatively better than the closest competitors, HOWEVER, the under-trained personnel have no idea about the business, their responsibilities, or maybe just have not completed the corp required course, "dont act like an idiot." the menu is a jumble. inside the "regular" scoop flavors appear in kne area, below that in a skewed list is their "seasonal" flavors AND more are listed here and there instead of in a cohesive, easily understood menu. its rediculous. the empolyees are incapable of telling a customer (in the drive up lane, which is usually closed) what EXACTLY a "Frostbite" is. When i asked, i was told "its soft serve with stuff sprinkled on top." huh. i have tried several time to get an palate-acceptable dessert. FAIL every time. "wild berry" has an AWFUL bunch of terrible "dark chocolate chunks" in a mix of ARTIFICIAL-tasting strawberry bits mixed into what remotely tasted like their original ice cream. i can accept that i have to absorb the cost is todays economic environment if i am paying for the increase in ingredient costs OF GOOD PRODUCT but dont try to pass off crap and substandard add-ins" to increase your bittom line!!! GREED. product is now certifiable CRAP. probably why 7 customers were served today. shame on you oberweis. read more

I got a scoop of chocolate and peanutbutter in a cone. For $7 and change, the scoop was way too small and I was super disappointed in the flavor. The chocolate used to be much richer and there used to be ribbons of peanutbutter. The chocolate isn't as rich now and there were only flecks of peanutbutter in my scoop. All in all a very disappointing experience. read more

Always a 15-30 minute wait in the drive thru (4 cars total). Long wait times. Wont return.

Visited on 5/21/2026 (Thursday night). - Ice cream was good (an order of soft serve and a chocolate ice in a cream cup) - The place was super dirty. Tables were sticky and had visible ice cream stains, the floor was dirty, napkins on the floor, and the bathroom was disgusting. This places needs to close for one day and have a deep clean. - The "ambiance" was a "poor man's Oberweiss". The shelves were bare, the glass case had mugs in it instead of displaying Oberweiss treats, no ice cream displayed by the cash register. The chess table had no chess pieces. The place does not have the welcoming vibes one feels when one goes to Oberweiss. Will not go here again. Not recommended. read more

Terrible and unprofessional service. For a well-known American ice cream chain, having only 2 staff members during peak hours is unacceptable. The crowd was massive and the wait was forever. Save yourself the frustration and avoid this locat read more

Waited 15 minutes for an Uber Eats. Pickup of 2 shakes, it looks like staff didn't know what they were doing, or there is no supervision. And they were not busy, but had four staff that I could see read more

At first look, I'm impressed. This is a creamery, selling a variety of milk based products. It's famous for it's ice cream and that's what all 7 of my family members and I were here for. An after dinner treat! The place itself is sweet. Very bright and clean. It's attractive. The ice-cream itself is not great. It seemed to have a high fat content and left a "fat" taste in my mouth. No one in my group was blown away. The ice-cream is not very expensive and seems very reasonably priced when compared to other ice cream parlors. Service was great. Ice-cream was eh. read more

Took forever to get a single sundae threw the drive thru. There were at least 4 people working on a Wednesday night and they were soooo slowww!!! No manners or apology for the 30 minute wait with only 3 cars ahead of me. read more

Horrible customer service. Three employees, one talking on his phone. Waited more than 15 minutes for a chocolate shake. Which I never got. Cashier kept taking orders but not filling any. Then the shift manager couldn't figure out how to open the register to give me a refund. read more

This ice cream place never disappoints! The cake shake, the banana split is enormous! The kids love the chocolate chip, the blueberry pie, the apple pie, and the dulce de leche ice cream. read more

Oberweis Ice Cream and Dairy Store - Being welcomed to their favorite ice cream shop! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bartlett, Illinois

What has happened that people are so careless and could care less? I have placed multiple orders from several locations and the issues seem to be company wide as its the same old song...missing items or items made incorrectly. Today it was both! It's infuriating for something so simple to go so wrong all of the time! read more

Terrible service. Placed an order on THEIR website for a door dash delivery - order was cancelled with no reason. Called the store. The associate told the manager who said in the background "we don't do door dash, why do people keep calling about that?" The manager then proceeded to talk to another associate about her relationship issues while I was ON THE PHONE waiting to talk to the manager. Oberweis, never ever again. read more

These hours suck what's the point of these hours . Have they always been like this ? Or did you guys change it for the summer lol I swore you guys use to be open earlier than just 2pm read more

2nd time in a row we have gone for hot fudge sundaes where we've gotten soft serve instead of scoops of ice cream. And it's super annoying. That's why we didn't go to Dairy Queen or Sonic. read more

Family-owned Oberweis Dairy makes ice cream the way it was meant to be. Oberweis still home delivers fresh milk in glass bottles - we're talking straight from the udder to your doorstep. They use this fresh milk and cream in their fountain treats. The farmers who supply their milk do not to treat their cows with rBGH Recombinant Growth Hormone. It says so on their ice cream cups. I had the chocolate with almonds and it was creamy and perfect. For less than $3.00 I got two huge scoops in a sugar cone. I had a bite of my friend's ice cream cake - it was like ice cream cake all mashed up - you could see bits of the blue frosting and circular sprinkles. So delish. So many flavors to choose from. Mmmmmm I love me some 18% butterfat in my ice cream. It's kosher to boot! read more

Oberweis Ice Cream and Dairy Store - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bartlett, Illinois

We have tried to give this location another chance but every time we come they are out of sorbet with no dairy free options. I'm not sure why they list it on their menu if they never have it in store. read more

Very disappointed in the manager Nicole. I get home Delivery every single week but cancelled it this week due to a vacation I am Leaving for in two days . Thus I walked in with my 7 empty glass milk containers and a black crate that I have had for a long time and use it when I forget to put my cooler on the front porch. She wouldn't give it back to me stating it's company policy. I said I have been a customer for a very long time and only reason I am here is to buy one gallon of milk and a some ice cream please give me the black crate back and she wouldn't . Point is don't let a long term customer leave disgruntled over a milk crate . Being a manager Nicole should understand customers come first not a milk crate . read more

Just an okay experience when visiting this location. They were DEAD on a hot day around lunch time. No one was there. We couldn't get what we wanted because their soft serve machine was down. After reconfiguring our orders, we got our ice cream and left. For those who have not experienced Oberweis ice cream, it can be summed up in one word: heavy. Not heavy as in the toppings or mix ins etc just heavy as in -- super rich milk based heavy cream ice cream. It leaves an almost milky aftertaste especially in the vanilla based flavors. It's not as prevalent in chocolate. A milk shake is overkill for me, with the heavy ice cream, the thick milk added in, and a dense whip cream -- it wasn't good. Stick with a scoop of ice cream or a gallon of milk from a glass bottle when you come to visit! I highly recommend their milk because it is amazing quality. read more

I don't go out for ice cream very often, but when I do, Oberweis is the place to go in Bartlett. This location is tucked away next to Rt. 59 just south of Stearns Rd. It can be easy to miss if you don't know where it is. It is a stand alone building, but it shares a strip mall parking lot in addition to its own parking spaces. Walking in, you are engulfed in old fashioned malt shop aroma and oldies music. They have about 12 small tables, so you can sit down and enjoy your ice cream treats. Two of the tables are chess boards with the pieces set up. My wife and I like to spend a lazy afternoon eating ice cream and playing chess occasionally. But getting back to the ice cream... you order at the counter. They have the flavors listed on the wall menu, but the ice cream is not displayed to help you pick. I am a visual person, so I miss not being able to see the choices. Of course they have all the usual serving choices: multiple cone types, bowls, sundaes, malts, etc. I am a two scoops in a bowl kind of guy. The quality of the ice cream is excellent. It is dense and creamy and not too sweet... there is flavor beyond "sugar". I like the cherry ice cream and my wife's favorite is the coffee. Sometimes I get one scoop of chocolate chip and one scoop of mint chocolate chip, which is a tasty combination. This kind of quality does not come cheap, but hey you shouldn't be eating this stuff every day anyway. Just splurge once in a while, this ice cream is worth it. If you know about my water addiction, then you will understand that I appreciate the availability of cups by the drinking fountain, so I can refill at will. So my waistline doesn't want me to come to Oberweis for ice cream too often, but I will definitely be back. I scream for ice cream! read more

just left from here. I got the Oreo frostbite but it tasted sour, I knew it definitely was off compared to my previous visits. So I asked them for a refund because I didn't really want anything else, so the manager came out and gave it to us without any problems. All she asked us was how it tasted, I'm assuming it's so she can fix whatever caused it to taste different. great service!! read more

I've had good experiences every time I've visited this Oberweis. The ice cream is wonderful of course-I would highly recommend the mint chocolate chip ice cream but really of them are creamy and the perfect size for what you pay. The Turtle walnut caramel Sunday is very very sweet as well. read more

Oberweis Ice Cream and Dairy Store - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bartlett, Illinois

I would have given Oberweis 5 stars about a year and a half ago. I have watched the store become less friendly and dirtier ever since the old manager left. The employees don't seem as happy anymore. The ice cream is still delicious, but one of the main reasons I frequented this location before was for all of the smiling faces. I guess nothing good lasts forever. read more

I was a little disappointed when i purchased a cone from the drive thru...the ice cream in a quart container that my aunt had purchased for me prior tasted better (i bought the same flavor) and the portion/scoop for $4 was tiny. get a hand packed quart rather than a cone, it's more satisfying. read more

Oooh, ice cream!!! And, it's really good ice cream too! This is an indulgent treat. And, I totally love it! Located in an easy to access strip mall, this particular Oberweis has a drive thru. I can swing by in my pj's at 9:30pm for a scoop and no one will know the difference. Well, the drive thru staff might notice, but they are too nice to say anything. They'll just scoop up chocolate peanut butter, put it in a cup with a sugar cone on top and smile as though this is a perfectly normal request from a lady in her pj's. Or maybe they will make my hubby a smoothie when he swings by in his slippers. I know they will look up my Moola Card with my phone number when I ask, so I can keep earning points for free ice cream. And, of course, they will give me plenty of napkins without hesitation. It's a little pricey, but it's not 31 flavors. We are talking about quality and I think it's worth it. Try a turtle candy sundae, a malt or even a kid's frostbite. They're all good! read more

This place is a godsend for me, definitely couldn't live without them. I work pretty late 6 nights a week and often get off ready to choke something. I'd been looking for something to perk up my mood before crawling into my house and I finally found it in Oberweis. I pulled in and found out that they are the only place around open later than we are. Lucky for me, the staff is very polite, even as the time gets closer and closer to close for them. I've known for a while that Oberweis makes some of the best dairy I've had, hands-down, so I HAVE to mention how great their ice cream is. It's always loaded with flavor and, in my case, big pieces of fruit. They have all the regular favorites, and a pretty big seasonal selection that's always fun to try. My favorite so far is the black cherry, but since fall is coming up, I'm going to have to find a new one to hold me until next summer. The place is always clean and has a nifty old-school atmosphere. I'm very glad to have a location that's so close to home and is even on the way back from work. read more

I have been coming to this Oberweiss location since they first opened in Bartlett a few years ago. This is still Theee place for great tasting ice cream in my part of the hood. The facility is nicely layed out, bright and cheery and the décor is reminiscent of the 50's and 60's style ice cream parlors. The ice cream here are one of the creamiest that I have tasted, far better than Dairy Queen and other local nonfranchised ice cream shops in my neighborhood. But out of all the ice cream shops, this place is definitely the most expensive. Expect to pay close to $5.00 for 2 scoops of ice cream in a waffle bowl. Expect to pay this much for wonderful ice cream and friendly service. I also love their selections of waffle cones, some dipped in chocolates and candies, pair that up with your favorite ice cream, and ShaBang !!! You get a "better than sex" ice cream.....Mmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm. My favorite being a scoop of Dolce De Lece (caramel ice cream) and a scoop of Chocolate Almond inside a chocolate dipped waffle. read more

I went to the drive-thru late on a Thursday evening. I'd say there were no more than 4 cars ahead of me yet somehow I had to wait at least 15 minutes before I could even order. That is a ridiculous amount of time to wait for ice cream and I almost left. Finally I placed my order. I asked for a kids scoop in a regular cone but they didn't give me the total. When I get to the window, they ask me what my order is again as if they never entered it. I repeated, a kids scoop in a regular cone. They said that it was over $4. Considering I had gotten a kids scoop at a different location less than a week earlier and it was around $2.50 that didn't seem right but I had nothing to reference it and I was already pretty annoyed so I paid. They then hand me the scoop and there's about a half pound of ice cream on it. I asked the cashier again, "this is a kids scoop?" And he said yes. I ended up throwing most of it out. The receipt said a single scoop, not a kids scoop. So they charged me incorrectly and gave me the wrong order. It's only ice cream, it shouldn't be that hard. I think I'll stick to the Bloomingdale location from now on. read more

Oberweis Ice Cream and Dairy Store - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bartlett, Illinois

Ice cream is very well made and is an exquisite treat after a stressful day after work or school. The ice cream is creamy and tasty, however certain flavors (Pistachio, Chocolate marshmellow, cookie dough peanut butter) are a definite pass. Employees are polite and good at they make no mistakes. All in all, it's a great place for a treat but make sure to get the best flavors. read more

How many of you know Oberwise uses Masanto GMO corn and Masanto GMO soy to feed there cows.... I didn't... but, there own website states, they feed there cows corn and soy for protean... cows are not meant to eat this crap! Organic is the only way to go!!! Enjoy you're GMO milk!!! And here is the replay I received....Dear Mr. , Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us regarding your concerns. We are sorry to hear that you have decided not to go forward with our delivery service, but understand your reservations. While Oberweis milk is deemed GMO-free based on governmental and industry standards, we do not require our farmers to use non-genetically modified crops. While we understand consumer concerns and continue to monitor developments, requiring GMO-free feed creates other problems for dairy farmers. For example, one common goal with feed crops is to make them more resistant to insects. Without the genetic help, crop growers have to use other methods such as increased insecticides, or they will produce a worse crop (which, in turn, provides less nutrition to the animals). In addition, the practical reality is that it is virtually impossible to contain the spread of windblown pollen and pollen spread by bees and other insects. To be sure, claiming crops to be non-GM is a bit misleading, as invariably genetically modified seeds will migrate from surrounding farms. Therefore, even farmers who have chosen non-GM seed are highly likely to be harvesting some GM crops due to spray of pollen invading their fields through processes completely outside of their control. We also believe that the term "GMO" has become a lightning rod and is generally misunderstood. For example, not everyone agrees whether selective breeding (natural reproduction using the best specimen available) is genetic modification or not. Many consumers don't stop to realize that even seedless watermelon, for example, is a GMO. We focus first and foremost on taste; Oberweis milk is the most delicious milk you can serve your family. We start with the best raw milk we can find. No artificial growth hormones, antibiotics, non-nutritional additives or preservatives are ever added to our milk. During our pasteurization process we gently heat our milk to a temperature necessary to kill microbes, while ensuring that we retain the wholesome nutrients and delicious flavor of our milk. Unlike many organic milk brands, we do not subscribe to the practice of ultra-pasteurization, which often destroys nutrients and compromises the flavor quality of milk. Please feel free to reach out if I can be of more assistance or answer any additional questions you may have. Sincerely, Marie Smith Marketing Representative read more

Horrible customer service. Too many kids working without any customer service attention. Constantly getting orders wrong with regard for the customer. Good ice cream but not worth the time. Finally decided to go inside instead of the drive thru and was so turned off by the lack of cleanliness. read more

Generally this place is friendly and the ice cream, although expensive, is good. Only one other car in drive-thru and one customer inside this evening. So incredibly slow and when I pull up to window there are at least 5 employees standing around laughing. My order was completely wrong and they charged me for something I didn't order. Finally they "correct" my order and Credit my card back. First, the manager just wasn't very friendly and didn't even apologize, and to top it off they still gave me the wrong ice cream flavor. We were almost home before we realized they had screwed up again. Wth? With 5 or 6 employees and 3 customers you would think they could get a simple order correct. read more

Remember how I told you Oberweis was a "sometimes food"? Yeah, apparently I was full of crap. I was back at an Oberweis three days later. It's like when the stupid producers of Sesame Street made cookies a "sometimes food" for the Cookie Monster. What a load of crap. You know he just thinks about cookies MORE now. Just like I think of a peanut butter shake more now that I said I wasn't going back for a while for another one! I feel as if I can justify it more, however, because my daughter drank half of my last one. So we drove up to this location so we could "share" another one (read: me slapping her hand away when she tried to pry it out of my fingers). It was just as good as before, and this location as a drive through!! :) read more

I ordered a scoop of espresso Carmel chip on a sugar cone. My cone arrived in a very soft and melty state upside down in a cup. If the ice cream is that soft, why would you offer to serve it in a cone. The scooper/ server offered to remake it, but wouldn't you remake it first and then serve it? For almost $4.00 a scoop I expected better. read more

There are two Oberweis' in my area and they are both very consistent with their service along with their ice cream dishes. This location I frequent with my family and they are usually very friendly and fast. Mostly teenagers work there and they are very nice and energetic which is refreshing. This location is very good at accommodating youth sports team that come in as well. read more

The ice cream is to die for; however, the customer service completely misses the mark. As a result of my experience at this Oberweis, I have decided not to give Oberweis any of my future business. The lack of customer service has been evident for the past couple of years. I hope the ice cream can compensate for their severe lack of leadership and service for your ice cream experience. read more
