ONE STOP ICE CREAM SHOP! Summer just isn’t the same without Ice cream! Pile three scoops on top of a freshly baked waffle cone and try to eat it before it melts. Batavia Creamery has been serving up smiles for 12 years! Located in the heart of Batavia Kirk Jansons keeps his customers coming back time and time again with over one hundred and fifty flavors, seasonal novelties and the happiest employees around.
A classic favorite for all, ice cream is the perfect treat on a hot summer day! Batavia Creamery is the perfect stop with so many unique flavors. Playdough is fun to play with but have you ever had play dough ice cream? Its glowing yellow vanilla ice cream surrounds colorful cookie dough pieces.
Magical Unicorn is a fun option of enchanted purple and white sweet cream swirled with sweet and sour cherry and blue raspberry rainbows and then bedazzled with star colored lemon candy flakes. If you are feeling in a patriotic mood try a scoop of the blueberry waffle cone add a scoop of black sweet cherry to make it red white and blue! Creative scoops and a cozy kid friendly shop make this an ideal dessert destination.
Batavia Creamery always carries the basic but not boring flavors. Jansons carries all the best quality sweet treats and ice cream. Vegan, dairy and soy free are also options. A customer favorite is the chocolate peanut butter and the kids tend to want the brightly colored and flavored superman. Even though it’s difficult to choose just one, manager Jane Maxey told us Amaretto Cherry is her favorite! Make sure to have your ice cream in a waffle cone made right there!
Ice cream isn’t the only sweet treat you will find at Batavia Creamery. They have many options such as brain freeze slushies, sundaes, floats, shakes, malts, smoothies, and shaved ice. The Hawaiian Shaved Ice is quite impressive with any combination of thirteen flavors. The freezers are stocked with ice cream cakes, pies and ice cream to go. Batavia Creamery is just the place to order a treat for a special occasion.
So whatever you do this summer definitely put Batavia Creamery on your summer bucket list!
