Within, you feel like you've been transported to an old fashioned ice cream parlor, with its vintage decorations and photos of historic Gaslight Village. They serve all kinds of Hudsonville ice cream, and can turn any flavor into a milkshake or malt shake upon request. They also carry a wide selection of old fashioned candies and sweets. Definitely worth stopping in if you're walking around East Grand Rapids!

She paid attention to details and went to the back to check when I asked if they had any coffee flavor. She found Oreo Espresso and it was delicious! Libby deserves a raise since it is absolutely a blessing to have a staff like her who genuinely care. It was so refreshing to see how she was working. It is rare to see nice people like her nowadays. Thanks again, Libby for your amazing service. I hope you're treated like you deserve to be treated. You're amazing!! :) Strawberry was excellent. Strawberry Cheesecake was ok and wasn't impressed by Praline Pecan. I'll absolutely comeback for some more Oreo Espresso & Strawberry for sure!!

Yogurt and ice cream stop inside a business center across from the cinema. The cost is by weight…read moreand imthose cups are very large. Should have weighed it just to see how much the cup costs lolol. Lots of flavor and toppings options. Facility was clean and smelled like an ice cream shop should so I felt very comfortable selecting toppings. I chose cotton candy yogurt with gummy bears as a kicker. Total cost $5.35 definitely a place you could spend some money at if you are not careful. I plan on going back for another flavor combo next time I am in the area. The staff was youth and kind. Didn't feel rushed or pressured to buy.

This stuff is expensive but there's really no way for you to know how much you're going to be paying until your cup is weighed. This business model is so wild to me, yet it works. Nate and I stopped in to this location of the Pump House recently for a sweet treat. The bowls are huge, which makes you buy more! They also have cardboard dividers so you can separate your bowl and try up to three flavors, which is what I did. The options are extensive - I think they had at least 20 flavors of frozen yogurt. They also have hard scooped ice cream but I'm not sure if you can use the toppings bar on those choices. I tried the vanilla caramel swirl, mint, and mango raspberry sorbet. They have dairy free options which is nice. The toppings bar is bonkers - I've never seen so many options, ranging from sweet to salty to weird (hot cheetos anyone?). I typically go for the gummy candy but I wish I knew which toppings were the lightest! At 69 cents per ounce, we paid over $20 for our two cups. That's bananas to me, honestly, but I knew it would be pricey going in. The vanilla caramel was my least favorite of the frozen yogurt flavors - it was definitely very caramel-y flavored but I thought it was overpowering. The mint was really good and the sorbet was sour and refreshing. Definitely not a place I'll go regularly, but it's a fun place to check out occasionally.

The dark chocolate shake is super chocolate-forward, thick and delicious. It's really, really chocolately. Also: Why have I lived forty-plus years and never tasted a dark chocolate milkshake? I've had many chocolate milkshakes, and they have been fine. The dark chocolate milkshake at Love's tastes like actual chocolate, though, and it is supremely satisfying. It almost makes me forget that I don't like ice cream! Love's has lots of other ice cream and gelato offerings, including vegan ice cream, plus chocolates and peanut brittle and things like that. This is the place to visit if you're looking for an ice cream treat in Grand Rapids.

Always a great option for ice cream! It's not my favorite spot in town, but most of my friends are…read moreobsessed with it so it's the most often suggested place due to their vegan soft-serve and convenient location. Since I'm simple and usually get a standard twist cone with sprinkles, I'm easy to please. For me, the soft serve has been somewhat inconsistent; sometimes it's great and sometimes its really soft and has melted quickly which made it a race to eat! I've also had some random texture issues with some flurries. One time my wife had the drumstick flurry and I don't know what happened, but the texture became super grainy and almost like the ice cream was curdling/separating. That for sure felt like a one-off, but is now always in my mind and makes me far less likely to get a flurry. There is almost always a line in the evening and on weekends, but it does tend to more quickly. It's a time to chit chat and gives you plenty of time to check out the extensive menu. I love that it's dog friendly so pals can bring their babes or I get to see other people's dogs! They don't have a ton of seating, but it's not generally presented as an issue. I appreciate that the seating is behind the building and provides some shade for hot summer days, but wish it wasn't right next to the dumpster.

Frosty Boy has so many options for different sundaes, slushies, flurries etc. 9 times out of 10 I'm getting some sort of flurry. Most recently I had a cookie dough flurry and added m&ms. Just so good and they put the perfect amount of toppings in it. Parking can be kinda chaotic! The parking lot is small but there's residential street parking nearby. They also have some picnic type tables at the front of back of the building to sit and enjoy your dessert.

There was a line and it moved quickly and was so nice to get some fresh air while you waited for your ice cream! The staff were friendly and informative while I was deciding and she also told me they make all of their ice cream themselves which is another major bonus! I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

I cheated. I cheated on the boy…read more I cheated on the Frosty Boy. I cheated on the Frosty Boy with Double Dip Depot! It all started on a smoky, 87 degree Saturday in July when our camping plans got a rain check and we were open for a good time. Big Mini Putt Club was initially discussed but nixed because we weren't feeling the downtown vibe or $12 a person/9 holes. Then, we looked up AJ's mini golf but they had a private event scheduled. Yelp suggested Double Dip and after one ring, the employee on the telephone sold us with $3.50/person for 18 holes and recommended we come before 7p (thanks for the tip!). We parked, watched the first half of England vs. France at Walker Roadhouse and walked right over to the Depot. The course was perfect (no waiting around and lots of shade) for our 4 year old who got her first hole in one on the 15th! The ice cream/cone of ice came out quick (no line either) at 6:30p and we had our choice of picnic tables with umbrellas to enjoy. Overall, great family date night! We rarely frequent the west side, besides for the zoo, but will have to plan another trip before the summer ends. Sorry Frosty Boy - we'll see you soon (probably tomorrow) and congrats on winning Best of the West!
