We drove about 25 minutes to get to this place and let me tell ya, it was definitely worth the drive We’re from sunny (and hot) Florida, so being surrounded by ice cream becomes the norm. I was craving it on this cold evening and was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience.
It’s now one of my top ice cream places. The quality and price really can’t be beat. When you’re so used to being charged $5.75 per scoop, seeing $6.95 for a flight of 4 is incredible. My bf and I got the strawberry cheesecake sundae and the flight of four. It had pumpkin cheesecake, the bees knees, brownie bomb, and bones & stones. My personal favorite was the bees knees followed by the bones & stones. The taste was creamy, rich, but not overly sweet. Perfect
There was a small line but it seemed to go so fast I didn’t even have time to make up my mind on a flavor! The staff is nice and I loved the cow out front. Next time we find ourselves in Virginia, we’ll definitely be coming back. This place lived up to all the hype!

You know this place is great because the line is always massive and wraps around the entire building. Here you’ll find the best soft serve ice cream in the whole area. Great selection of hard scoop flavors and shave ice flavors too.

This is a very nice family or friend fun & yummy experience. It’s an ice cream shop; however it is an outdoor venue only, so be prepared to wait and eat outside (or they do takeout too). The setup is very neighborhood friendly and cute, including the Bessy the cow bench. I’m so glad someone told me about it. The ice cream and shaved ice are delicious. There are plenty of flavors and opinions to choose from, so everyone in your group will enjoy it. The customers are diverse, ranging from all ages and backgrounds. And everyone is friendly while waiting in line. Don’t be discouraged by the long line, it moves fast. The staff definitely has it down to a science and are super patient, friendly, and knowledgeable (in case you have trouble deciding what to pick or need help figuring out the best age appropriate options, especially for the little ones). You also might notice some customers bringing their dogs; which adds to the entertainment when waiting in the line : ) Note: All dogs must be well behaved to remain on their premise. Oh and I almost forgot to mention, the prices are actually reasonable. Making it a great option for those looking for an affordable place to treat their family. Overall, it is worth the trip and I’m very happy to have found this lovely ice cream shop. I just have to say it one more time…the ice cream (& shaved ice) is so GOOD/DELICIOUS!!!

We finally checked out Nathan’s Dairy Bar in Manassas and honestly, it was awesome. The ice cream was really good—sweet but not overly sugary like cheap ice cream can be. You could tell it was made with quality ingredients. The soft serve was excellent too, super creamy and flavorful. They have a ton of flavor options, including some really fun ones like Cookie Monster, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Fluffernutter, and more. It definitely made it hard to choose.
One thing I appreciated was that they serve everything in styrofoam cups. I know it’s not great for the environment, but when it comes to ice cream on a hot day, it actually helps keep it cold longer, which I really liked. The prices were very reasonable and the portions were generous. The line was long when we went, but it moved quickly and was totally worth the wait—especially since it was a hot day.
Another bonus: the place is dog-friendly and they even offer pup cups. There’s also plenty of parking, and they stay open late, which makes it a perfect evening spot to cool off with a treat. Overall, Nathan’s Dairy Bar definitely lived up to the hype. We’ll be back for sure.

Hands down the best ice-cream I have tasted in a while. The prices are amazing super cheaper. Everything in the picture below was $16. The service was lighting fast. I waited 2 mins in peak hours
You equally have a 36 hole minigolf course next door which makes it a beautiful spot for a date.

Ordered a Sweet & Salty Pretzel Sundae, for someone that’s not a big fan of caramel -> Approved.
Still a little bit too sweet for me, but it was awesome.
They gave me a pup cup and my dog loves it so much

I love going to Nathan’s. The price is cheap and the ice cream is superb! There will usually be a line but it lives very fast. The staff is attentive, helpful and lets you try different flavors so you can find out what you want. It’s best to check their menu online to see what hand scooped flavors they are serving.
They also have great soft serve ice cream as well. I highly recommend this place. It’s also pretty chill atmosphere as well.

After a wedding where we left before dessert was served, my wife and I stopped at Nathan’s Dairy Bar thanks to Yelp. (It’s top rated!) There was a line, but it went fast. For just a few dollars, my wife got the ice cream sandwich (it’s vanilla ice cream in between two Oreo cookies) and I the sundae. I built my own with double the fudge, marshmallow fluff, bananas, and “wet nuts” (walnuts in syrup). Everything was delicious!
