Grand Ole Creamery & Grand Pizza

Without a doubt, Grand Ole Creamery is one of the top ice cream shops in the Twin Cities. Everything is homemade, including their waffle cones. The ice cream is rich and creamy, and there are dozens of delicious flavors to choose from. The place always seems to be packed whenever I go there, which is a setback. But the line moves along rather quickly. The staff is friendly and courteous, and the environment is family-friendly. If you live in the area and have not been to Grand Ole Creamery, it's worth the visit! more

While several of my friends raved about Izzy's ice cream on Marshall Avenue, I told them they had to trie the Greand Ole Creamery, and they have not been back to Izzy's since. This is definately the best ice cream you can get in the twin cities, and I have tried several. Similar to Coldstone Creamery, but much much better!!! more

The Grand Ol' Creamery, on Grand Avenue, is probably the best source for ice cream in the Twin Cities. This old fashioned ice cream parlour is a St. Paul staple, boasting the oldest ice cream shop in the Twin Cities. The ice cream there is literally, the creamiest, densest, richest ice cream around. The flavors vary somewhat, daily, but their Butter Pecan is without equal, and their Mexican Chocolate is delicious & exotic. G.O.C. homebakes their waffle cones, and unlike other places, these have a crunchy, crispy exterior, and a soft cake like center that makes them the thickest, most delicious waffle cones I've ever had. Each cone has a Whoppers Malt Ball in the bottom to stop any drips too. At G.O.C. you can also get ice cream cakes. Their prices are reasonable, all the cakes are custom made & use their wonderful ice cream. The decorations aren't as fancy or trendy as you'd get at Ben & Jerrys but the quality is worth it. All in all, G.O.C. is the place to get ice cream in the Twin Cities, if you're a diehard ice cream fanatic, or if you just want to try what real ice cream should tast like. more

They also make their own waffle cones and put a little whopper in the bottom so no ice cream drips out. You will find long lines on summer evenings, but the wait is worth it! more
