Best ice cream in Michigan. Wait is usually long but that's because everyone knows how good this place is.

The. Best. Island City Fudge paired with French Silk in a waffle cone is my recommendation. read more

This is the best ice cream in all the land! (If you ask me.) Prices are good. Friendly owners and staff. Not much sitting room inside, but plenty of area to stand outside, as well as a few benches. If you haven't tried this place yet, get there now! read more

Our favorite place to go for ice cream. In the summer this little place can have a line well out the door but it's worth the wait. We love the cougar tracks and the lemon chiffon but you probably can't go wrong with any of them. There is very little seating available. My father enjoys their sugar free options every time we take him, too. read more

Friendly, family owned business. Excellent service! Best Icecream anywhere!! Highly recommend

This is a cute little ice cream shop. I have also had their ice cream at a scoop shop in Kalamazoo. I have tried the french mint, blue moon, amaretto chocolate, and caramel chocolate cashew ice creams. All very good. read more

Love all the flavors and workers were very nice and helpful!! The atmosphere is just great!!

okay well why the hell do y'all not offer samples like i licked my bowl clean because the ice cream was good but imagine if i hated it like don't go here if you wanna just try some ice cream cause apparently you aren't allowed to try it and the lady serving me was rude and started singing at me and told me my ice cream flavor tasted like a whole different ice cream than i imagined she also laughed in my face and called me fat read more

good as fuck but why don't y'all do samples wtf like why do we have to pick our ice cream from our heads

If you are looking for great ice cream, wonderful owners that employ many local teen workers, and always give service with a smile, this is the place. Best ice cream around! read more

Love love love their ice cream! It's so fun to go in March when they first open up. We went for our first visit this year and it was snowing!!! read more

As usual, fantastic ice cream and friendly service! Always a favorite go to spot! The location is small, this it gets a bit cramped while waiting, but it's a small price to pay for deliciousness! read more

I wish they'd expand on the building to make it bigger for all the customers in the summer. The ice cream is definitely the best I've ever gotten from a local business though! read more

Plainwell ice cream is made in house, and it tastes fantastic. They have a huge variety of flavors, along with favorites like banana splits and shakes. Our girls look forward to grabbing ice cream after soccer games, and frankly so do we. read more

Always delicious and yummy! I've been going to Plainwell Ice Cream since I was a kid many years ago. Now I take my daughter and we both enjoy the ice cream. I've always had friendly service as well. Love this place. read more

I have one thing to say. BLUE MOON! A childhood favorite, this cute little shop carries it!! I reccomend a blue moon hot fudge sundae! What is blue moon you say? Go and find out! read more

Probably my favorite local ice cream shop. Very ecstatic staff who are likely to be high schoolers. I love the salted caramel ice cream and I love that they make all of their ice cream in house. I find that the environment here is very enjoyable. They recently in the last couple years added more outdoor seating. This ice cream shop is beautifully stationed next to old mill which sits by the tracks on the outskirts of plainwell. I would travel a good distance for this ice cream. read more

Amazing ice cream!!! If you are in the area do not miss the opportunity to stop. You will not regret a visit to this location. The ice cream is spectacular and very creamy! Every time we are in the area we have to stop! Employees are friendly, and when there is a line... Things move along at a decent pace. We will continue to stop at this location as much as we can! read more

The best in west michigan and possibly anywhere. I have been going to plainwell ice cream for about 22 years. Started going there because it was nearby but as ive grown older and moved away ive realized how special the place is. Get a seat outside on the bench and enjoy main street. Or take your cone for a walk down to the river. You wont be disappointed. read more

Our favorite place for hand-dipped ice cream. Dozens of flavors, friendly staff, and a quaint, hometown feel. Their opening in the spring each year is hard to miss - if you're on social media, it seems there's always a buzz about the opening of Plainwell Ice Cream for the season! read more

You will never want any other ice cream. This is by far the best ice cream on the planet. Be careful, it's addicting

This place heaven on earth, let me tell yah. They have like every single flavor of ice cream imaginable. The staff is super friendly and funny. I've never had a bad experience. Best ice cream I've ever had. read more

The. Best. Ever. Seriously - the best. I could eat a gallon of French Silk in one sitting and have no regrets. It's amazing. My kids like the vanilla and the strawberry, my husband gets the Island City Fudge. It's so good that when we visit our family (we are from Florida) we will go every night we are here. read more

The best cookie dough ice cream I have ever had! Also love their key lime pie ice cream. So good! I love that you can also get 1/2 gallons of ice cream to take home. read more

Creamiest ice cream in town! We always stock up a bunch of half gallons in our freezer once they're open for the season since it's a bit of a drive from us. Gotta try their key lime pie, jamocha almond fudge and strawberry ice cream! They have a ton of tasty ones but these are my favorites. read more

I have tried ALL of the butter pecan ice cream in southwest Michigan, and Plainwell Ice Cream is by far the best. Looking for Kalamazoo outlets that sell it. I know that the "Spirit of Kalamazoo" store sells it, but I wonder if there are other Kalamazoo outlets. read more

The ice cream is delicious! I particularly love the mud pie, jamoca almond fudge and oatmeal chip flavors. Quick and friendly service. Highly recommend! read more

If you want okay ice cream, you have come to the wrong place. If you are looking for good ice cream, move along as this place is not for you. If you desire to have a taste of great ice cream, you might as well keep on looking as it is not this place. If you want the best ice cream that has ever graced the earth with its presence, look no further, you have found what you have sought. Even though it is a true fact to say that Plainwell Ice Cream has the best ice cream in the world, it is yet an understatement. Looking up in the night sky on a crystal clear night, one will see that there are too many stars to count and even more that go unseen. Knowing this, the fact that there are trillions and trillions of stars and planets, I am 100 percent certain that Plainwell Ice Cream makes and serves the best Ice Cream in not only our solar system and galaxy, but the entirety of creation. With the unlimited expansion of the universe, Plainwell Ice Cream is in a continual state of becoming greater and greater. When the universe expands, it gets bigger and bigger. This means that Plainwell Ice Cream is constantly the best of a bigger and bigger universe, making that accolade of Best in the Universe all the more impressive. Stephen Hawking, a physicist, cosmologist, and dreamer, is one of the many proponents of the multiverse. This meaning, in simple, that there are unlimited universes and we are part of just one. Plainwell Ice Cream is the best of all of them. I find myself writing this review on a cold winter day and although it is cold, I still long for a sweet creamy taste Plainwell Ice Cream. I am waiting and counting down the days till Plainwell Ice Cream opens again so that I may go taste some of its rich and delicious ice cream. After having Plainwell Ice Cream, no other brand measures up to or even close to the quality and standard that Plainwell has set for me. Although other ice cream is good, it leaves me wanting more. It leaves me with a longing and a desire for what I once knew. I appreciate Plainwell Ice Cream but I never truly knew how much I would miss it till it was gone. Not only is the Ice Cream the greatest in existence, the staff and the servers are always friendly and bring a smile to my face no matter how the day was going before I stepped foot into the store. My only regret in writing this review is that I cannot give it six stars out of five. Plainwell Ice Cream, the best Ice Cream. read more

Cougar tracks is the best. Friendly staff. Fun place to go. Very high quality ice cream.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for PLAINWELL ice cream! I admit it. I am an ice cream snob. I eat good ice cream, or no ice cream at all. Plainwell Ice Cream Co is the only place I prefer to go and I will drive 50 minutes roundtrip just for their Cappuccino or Lemon or Peanut Butter Fudge. Hands down the creamiest, most flavorful ice cream and the friendliest owners and wait staff around. A family favorite for years and a place we always visit on special occasions and with out of town guests, Plainwell Ice Cream never disappoints. read more

Great ice cream selection, welcoming servers, and that comforting, small-town feel. Try the blue moon (it's a Michigan thing) or Island City Fudge! read more

Maybe I had my hopes up too high after reading all of the stellar reviews but the ice-cream was just OK. Was it good? Sure, but so is the ice-cream at the grocery store. Between this and Sherman's (you can get it at Treat Street in kzoo) I'll go Sherman's any day of the week. I'm all about supporting local businesses though so I'll definitely be back. I loved the throwback feel of the shop and their attention to detail. read more

Pretty much the best ice cream I've had. Tried peanut butter fudge and salted caramel so far. Both equally good.

I've been hearing about this little gem for a while and it did not disappoint. Flavors were somewhat typical of ice cream parlors in our area. But there will be something for everyone. I had a malt, made with their Gold Coast flavor, a tasty caramel blend with toffee bits. My companion had a scoop of Praline Pecan, a definite step up form B&R's Pralines & Cream. Worth going out of your way at least a bit to stop in. read more

The ice cream here is a major treat. The flavors are excellent and the quality is at the TOP! We love to visit two or three times each summer. read more

Such a cute, tiny little ice cream place. It's like a step back in time. You'll find a colorful selection of full fat flavors displayed on a wooden sign and walls full of ice cream themed decor. A great little place to stop for a sweet treat. read more

Always where I must go when when I am in town. I am not sure what else to say. Besides the ice cream I make, this is ice cream I crave. It brings back memories of when I was younger and did not have a care in the world. read more
