    House Graeter has endured for more than one hundred and fifty years. Time does not grant such favor lightly, nor does it preserve houses without cause. This one was weighed and allowed to remain. Their frozen cream is sorcery--soft where ice should harden, warming the spirit though born of cold. No matter how long it rests in the deepest keep, it returns whole and unbroken. This bears no relation to the Golden Arch Tavern, where standards are discussed but rarely enforced, and where the ice-cream machine is so often fallen that many believe it legend. I conclude that High King Richard Graeter cannot be merely a man. Such mastery suggests knowledge beyond the common order--mystic arts, dark arts, or something older still. He is kin in spirit to High Wizard Jungle Jim, whose robes and spectacle stand as proof that magic yet walks among us. I favor the hall of House Graeter within the Vale of Spring, though high kings and common folk alike speak highly of Fountain Square, where this house holds court before the realm. The stewards of this house are attentive and gracious, serving with a care that suggests pride rather than obligation--a rarity in this age. Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip bears my seal--balanced and exact. Boldly Bearcat stands as a loyal companion, never the crown, yet always welcome at the table. When Graeter's is set before me, my stomach knows no bounds--and neither should yours. Let it be entered into record: the House of Golden Tongue stands with House Graeter against any foe. 10 out of 10. -The Food Lord, House of Golden Tongue

    If you like ice cream, this place has the best - hands down. Yes - it is pricey, but you pay for what you get, especially if you've never tried it before. Everything tastes fresh, and the customer service is top of the line - right up there with Chick-fil-a. From the moment you walk in, you are always greeted, welcomed, and served with a smile. It is truly a magical experience each time I enter a Graeter's. Every single flavor I have tried is top tier for its class. Every specialty drink (like blended coffees, lemonades, etc.) are fantastic and flavorful. I wouldn't come here for the pastries, but they are still very good.

    An employee named Kevin was very rude. He did not understand my order and tried to scold me. Moreover he used derogatory words while preparing my order

    Not from the area but 9 out of 10 locals said visiting Graeter’s is a must stop and glad we did. Came during a quiet Thursday afternoon and the service was excellent . The ice cream was super creamy and the chocolate chips were soft which was a nice departure. We had chocolate chip and double dark brownie fudge.
