Nelson’s Ice Cream is known for its huge portions—you definitely get your money’s worth. They only accept cash, and while there’s an ATM inside, it’s easier to bring cash with you. The place is usually quite busy, but the line moves fairly quickly. They offer a wide variety of flavors, so there’s something for everyone. A fun stop if you’re craving a big, classic ice cream experience.

Well our second vist here… and they were open this time! Ordered a child’s size, which came in a cup with about 5 scoops! I had them stop at 3 after what I saw ahead of me. I had moose track, and it was fantastic, not too sweet, good amount of added ingredients including some peanut butter cups. We had 4 child’s size and everyone tried to eat it all. Place was packed, good speed on service, “cash only” with and ATM on site. You need to try it before they close for winter! Oh, come hungry and if you dare, don’t split…

We had a sweet & chilling eperience visting Nelsons. Pretty good for an 100+ year old business. It worth joking death by icecream if you end up taking the large sized portions. Little inside secret, you end up making it to the wall of fame and a refill if you are able to finish it all by yourself. Its pretty busy during summer days and the lineup clears up quite soon. Only qualm , if you will is they accept cash only but make it convinient with an ATM stationed inside the store. Great tasty experience for the entire family

Sweet mother of servings, the amount of ice cream dispensed at this location is beyond compare. We realized, far too late, that a double was not a “double scoop”, but perhaps intended for two people to share over the course of several weeks. 😀 After each ordering a double, our mounds of ice cream leering at us with a playful taunt, we decided it might be best to save some, as certainly, that much ice cream would leave one catatonic, if not, with a belly ache at lease. Naturally, I consumed all of mine in a single sitting, and despite apprehension, my stomach was not displeased with me at all! I couldn’t help myself. The banana ice cream was ON POINT, perfect in every way. The bits of brownie provided an excellent texture contrast, helping me to pace myself and enjoy the journey.
Definitely go get yourself a ton of ice cream and eat it all. You won’t regret it.

Large variety with a couple vegan options!! A single size is large enough for 2! I walked a total of 1.6 miles for this ice cream! Worth it!

Great experience! The servers were so friendly and efficient. Heads up that it is cash only (but they have an ATM inside of you need it). Flavors were plentiful and delicious. We all ordered child sizes and most of us had leftovers.

Absolutely massive portions. Flavors are delicious and there are so many options to choose from! Be prepared to wait — we were in line about 45 minutes when we stopped by at 4:30pm!

Our first time here in probably 15 years! Loved it then and loved it at this visit! The kid sized cones and cup helpings were huge! So many great, unique choices of ice cream and a MUST visit ice cream shop!

My friend and I have been coming here for years and splitting a child’s size. Those of you that go here know that is at least 6 scoops of ice cream. My friend was full from lunch and I can only eat a small amount due to a medical condition, so we asked for a scoop of ice cream a piece, which is what you see in their small cup. She charged us $12 for two scoops of ice cream. $6 per scoop. That’s the price of two child’s size. She said she couldn’t “split it,” even though we were together and have split it for years. This is the worst experience I’ve ever had here. I guess they now prefer waste and chasing decades-long customers away. Very sad end to what was a great run. I gave two stars for the great memories, this visit wouldn’t even be on the scoreboard, but in the negatives.

TEN TEN TEN!!!!!! If you are an ice cream lover, you will never get a better deal than this!! Hand-scooped (These kids work sooo hard here- And because they are constantly scooping ice cream all day long, ALL
of the girls that work here can beat any dude in arm wrestling….Check out their pipes!!) Anyway, TONS of ice cream options- It’s around $4+ (I can’t exactly remember though) for a “child’s” ice cream cone. TRUST ME- There is NOTHING juvenile in size about this “smallest” size!!! In the summer, the lines are very long, but it’s WORTH IT! (Just ask anybody enjoying their icecream in the outside patio area!) In the summer, bring plenty of Wet Wipes. Great place for families. They take cash only, but they do have a cash machine there. Do you love chocolate? One word: ZANZIBAR!!!! And please, TIP THESE KIDS- THEY DESERVE IT! They are very wonderful to customers!!
