Graeter's Ice Cream

Alright, to set the record straight from previous reviews, this is a chain based in Cincinnatti, although the ice cream for Louisville is made here at the Springhurst location. There are 7 franchised stores in Louisville, and I usually frequent the Hurstbourne Lane location, next to Barnes & Noble. The ice cream is uber yummy! There are over 20 flavors, including the sorbets. The Black Raspberry Chip ice cream is the most popular one, and you can try it and any other flavor you like. Just ask for a sample (yes, they are free!). My other favorites include the Coconut Chip, Peanut Butter Chip, Chocolate Coconut Almond Fudge, and Toffee Chip. I notice that others are ""gaga"" about their Peach, Peppermint, and Prailines and Cream ice creams, which are seasonal. Pros: Taste, Service, Casual atmosphere Cons: Can be very busy more

I have never had such WONDERFUL ice cream as Graeter's since moving to Louisville 2 years ago. There is nothing like it! Matter of fact, I stopped there this afternoon and split a sundae with my hubby! YUM YUM YUM. Pros: Flavorful, Decadent, Out-of-this-world Cons: Lacks-atmosphere more

Graeter's has wonderful ice cream! I agree, the Raspberry chocolate chunk is out of this world. But, my favorite is peppermint with hot fudge sauce, nuts, whipped cream and a cherry in a waffle bowl! Their hot fudge sauce is just that... a rich sauce, not a syrup. Just wish they had a drive thru, like the one in Lexington! more

Among the very best ice creams I have tasted; right up there with Bluebell Ice Cream and Italian Gelati! more

They don't have alot of flavors but the flavors they do have are yummy. Pros: Taste good Cons: not very many flavors more

I've lived in Louisville most of my life but it wasn't until recently I visited Graeter's. I went with friends who raved about Graeter's ice cream and I thought ""who could be better than Ben & Jerry's?"" ....GRAETER'S, that's who. They make their ice cream with real cream and real butter....um, butter. Now, all other ice creams pale in comparison....Oprah thinks so, too!!! more
