Yummy soft serve!…read more Interesting flavor options for mix ins/flavor bursts! I got a small vanilla soft serve with the cheesecake flavor burst. The flavor burst was quite artificial tasting- it didn't taste like other cheesecake flavored things which I usually love. It was more like artificial sugar cookie? I preferred the vanilla soft serve by itself. Portions are large! Would still return but would skip the cheesecake flavor burst.

With a decades long history in Watkins Glen, Glen Dairy Bar is a great place to stop for a cold…read moretreat on a hot day in town. My husband and I stopped by last week after getting hot and sweaty walking at Watkins Glen State Park and walking around town over a very hot Fourth of July weekend. I wanted a cold treat, and Glen Dairy Bar was the perfect choice. It's adorable - it has that classic dairy spot look that harkens back to the 40s and 50s. We walked up, waited for just a minute, and then ordered an ice cream to share. Their menu is huge and has something for everyone. They have soft serve, hard ice cream, frozen yogurt, sundaes, flurries, smoothies, and more. We had a vanilla soft serve with a cake batter flavor blend in a cake cone, and it was exactly what I wanted. With plenty of parking, an outside seating area, a great menu, and good (and very fast) customer service, what's not to like?! I'd definitely stop by on the next hot day I spend in Watkins Glen!

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.

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!
