Graeter's Ice Cream

Visited Graeter’s Ice Cream (also great at a few other spots around Lexington and Northern Kentucky) and had an awesome ice cream experience! The ice cream is incredibly creamy and rich thanks to their traditional French pot process, and the flavor selection is excellent—whether you go for classics or seasonal favorites.  The staff was friendly, and the shop had a welcoming vibe perfect for grabbing a cone or a sundae. This place is a must‑visit for anyone who loves quality, flavorful ice cream and refreshing desserts on a warm day. Highly recommended if you’re in the area and craving something sweet! 🍨

I wanted something sweet after my lunch, and this place was next door. The person working helping me out was very friendly and knowledgeable about the flavors of the ice cream.

This was all, of course, during a time when women rarely owned businesses, and she was highly scrutinized for her efforts. She kept going despite the backlash, and I applaud her! The business thrived under her expertise, and I am so glad it did! Their ice cream is luscious and refreshing, and they have SO many flavours! My favourite is their blue Cotton Candy ice cream; it is not overly swee

I visited Graeter’s Ice Cream and parked in the garage directly next to their shop — exactly as instructed. I followed their posted directions to register my car as a customer so I wouldn’t receive a ticket. Despite doing everything correctly, I still received a parking citation. When I called Graeter’s for help, they politely but firmly passed the problem off to the parking management company. Unfortunately, that company seems to exist in name only — no one answers the phone, and their website provides no way to actually reach a human being. The result? I paid to enjoy a cone of ice cream and was rewarded with a parking ticket and zero support. If Graeter’s wants to keep its reputation for “sweet experiences,” it should take responsibility for the partners it chooses and protect its cu
