La Michoacana Premium - N Lewis, Waukegan

Authentic Mexican ice cream, drinks and special treats. Large indoor and outdoor seating. Parking lot is small and a bit difficult to exit because you have to leave behind the building and drive past the storage facility next door. Customer service is very helpful and friendly. The lemon and cucumber juice is very refreshing.

🍨La Michoacana ice cream parlors are hot spots in the Chicago area and especially in Waukegan. This location in particular gets jam-packed during hot summer days/nights when the kids are out of school. Even when there's a line of people extending out the front door, the sweet treats here are awesome and my boys are well worth it. My wife who's not Mexican but was born & raised in Honduras does get a craving for this place from time to time and when she was growing up as a child, she can sort of reminisce her youth here. I hope this venue continues to pull in plenty of business in the coming months & years and I wish for continued success & prosperity for the owner(s).🍦

Had the first bad experience at the lewis location. I was waiting behind a line of 3 people, the customer had trouble with change so it took a little linger but i still waited, when it came to my turn and the employee who said her name was “Dana” & she was the “only manager there”, she was of bigger build, tattoos on her arms and black hair. Asked what I wanted, i went to look at the juices right next to her which took 2 seconds of glancing over and by the time im telling her the flavor there is a group of 4 people checking out. I questioned her as to why she couldnt wait and she said “i was just checking the out lady” & i said “right… but the same way i waited, they should have waited” i practically had to get BACK in line so i could be attended and decided to not get anything. She gave

Best place in town to get some ice cream. Always taste good and reasonable prices. Different flavors to chose from and alot varieties of snacks.

I asked for a topo chico with salt and lime which they then proceeded to put in a cup and charge me $9. I asked why it was so expensive and they said it’s the price of the cup?? This is absolutely ridiculous
