    Yummmm, the cookie/cake batter flavor with waffle cone was delish!! I wish there was one closer to where I live, but I'll be back when in the area.

    Lots of great flavors.

    Very friendly ice cream staff today. We talked about a waffle cone and then two scoops and the best part was the guy behind the counter scooping ice cream recommended we get two different flavors which was a run for me. Scope was door, county Cherry and the bottom scoop in the waffle cone was mint chocolate chip. The ice cream was delicious. The service was great. Ambience was chill. I recommend.

    A Yelp search for vegan ice cream in the area led me to this place. There were only two vegan options, but neither was sorbet, so that's a win! I decided to try both - vegan pumpkin and vegan chocolate, in a vegan waffle cone. The ice cream was creamy, fresh, and chockfull of flavor. I was very impressed.

    We love Scratch Ice Cream and was so excited to see a location opening up closer to home. So many different flavors to choose from and they let you sample if you can't decide which one you want. Their scoops are generous as well.

    The ice cream is okay, but not the best you can get in the area and they also don't have as many unique and fun flavors as I was hoping. It is also pretty expensive for what you get. Not sure who is buying a gallon of ice cream for $27.99 these days and even your standard cone was up there in price. The service was okay and the atmosphere was decent but I'm not sure they will thrive in this location without offering something more special. I miss YoMama.

    Sooo yummy! The staff was sweet and let us try many flavors. Lots of vegan options too! Lots of outdoor seating, a nice spot to spend a summer evening

    Nothing really spectacular about this place. Just a normal place to take the kids for a nice treat. For the price of one scoop you can get an average name brand from the store

    Delicious. I mean puts every other "custard" I have had to shame…read more This was a place that I was gonna visit on our trip to Wisconsin one way or the other but because it's not quite centrally located downtown, it would have to be a little bit of a finagling fortunately, it was basically right on the way to Madison so with a quick stop at around 11 AM we pulled over for some custard. GF didn't even want to get out of CAR. Can you believe it? If she had then I might've had some assistance and what kind of custard to get but I panicked and felt went out. You can't go wrong with the original so I just went with original vanilla but there was something else that intrigued me and now I will never know. Not to say the original vanilla wasn't absolutely fantastic and completely worth it. Creamy, not too sweet but just sweet enough. Very affordable and worth every fucking penny. I would put my face in it but I don't know how that would go for my skin.

I picked up hamburgers with fried onions and ketchup for our dinner last night, but we were disappointed once again. The burgers were dry, thin, and burned around the edges. This is the third time in a row now; don't know if burgers are premade and thrown back on the grill to reheat, or has the quality of the meat been downgraded, or whatever, but very disappointing. We'll still go for custard, but frankly, will probably start going more often to the recently reopened, but further away, Oscar's in Waukesha as that custard is also excellent, plus there's a (double) drive-through. Sometimes it's such a bear to park at Kopp's.....

I ended up getting the Gelato Cake Batter and Southern Caramel Pecan. The others in our group came up with their own amazing combinations. The counter with all the toppings was well stocked and organized, making it easy to put together whatever combination you wanted. I grabbed a bunch of different toppings, with most of my choices somehow involving chocolate. All three of our cups ended up filled with an assortment of yummy ingredients. Service: There was one employee there who seemed to be taking care of customers while also keeping the serving and dining areas clean. I would say they were efficient, but not especially chatty or friendly. Atmosphere: The place is well designed. It's easy to figure out the process for making your own dessert, and there are lots of different areas for sitting. Big windows let in plenty of natural light and make the space feel open and inviting. One thing that really stood out was the number of signs mentioning that the premises are being monitored by cameras. Even in the bathroom, there was a sign saying that if teenagers are suspected of vandalism, the cameras may be used to identify them. It made me wonder if this location has been dealing with issues involving younger customers. There wasn't any trouble while we were there, but all of the signs definitely made an impression. Overall, this is a good place to go for a delicious frozen yogurt treat. I would definitely come back and try another dishful.

The people here are friendly as can be and just the whole vibe and ordering styles are like an old school dinette or drive-through. Of course, I ordered the custard here. And when I took my first bite, I had an epiphany moment where I felt like I haven't really truly tried frozen custard before. So delicious and such a reasonable price for delicious treat. When I left, I was thinking to myself how lucky the folks of Milwaukee are to have places like this in their neighborhood.
