So many yummy flavors to choose from, ample parking and plenty of seating with a few games like giant connect 4 and corn Hole to play.

You have got to try the tacos! They're humongous! All of them taste great! Every time I come here I never leave disappointed. This is the best ice cream place I have been to since diary queen went super macro. Finally the ice cream feels and tastes like hand crafted art instead of ultra processed food. I recommend taking the entire family here. This place gives you MORE ICE CREAM.

Really enjoyed Dairy Dan’s! Super cool that they have a heated patio to eat during the winter. They have a pretty wide selection of menu options and the ice cream was really good!

Amazing large variety and selection, with generous sizes, and quality ingredients. Fast and friendly service. Plenty of outdoor lawn space tables and covered patio seating is available. Great place to bring the kids and family. Or the team after a game. Best thing is they are open all year long. Plenty of parking in the back. Definitely worth visiting.

Dairy Dan has been around for like 50 years, and still has good ice cream! DairyDans has become more culturally diverse, and even has gigantic Dubai Tacos. Looks like they are covered in pistachios, so it must be some kind of dessert. See photos. They have all the usual "Flurries" in soft serve. They have about a dozen real ice cream flavors too, including Michigan Pothole. I didn't see Sea Salt Turtle though. They have real slushes, including Graveyard. There is outdoor seating too. Recommended.
