    Ordered a scoop and got barely half filled. Everyone else i was with got a good sized scoop and were charged the same as me. Very upset to get such a small amount for $6. There was also huge chunks of ice…

    Fantastic family ice cream shop! These shops have amazing flavors, are an Ohio original, and are almost a cultural phenomenon in Dayton and central Ohio! If you're passing through, please stop and try this place!

    Best ice cream- black raspberry chip. Must try. I’m visiting out of town for a week and will be back again before I leave!

    This review is not negative to anyone who works at the Oakwood Graeters, nor the store itself. All was fine until I got the cash register and found out a 16 oz. milkshake is $7.25, how crazy is that? Well, crazy enough to make this my last visit to Graeters for the forseeable future. Again, no complaints about the store, just the absurd pricing.
