Braums Ice Cream & Dairy Store

Went to have lunch with the family. Had an a great steak sandwich. Ice cream is always good for the kiddos. Braums is as good as it always has been.

I grew up with Braums (in Oklahoma). Then I moved to Indiana for 23 yrs. I moved here about 3 weeks ago. My dad bought my husband, me, and him biscuits and gravy this morning. Jeez… they have gone way downhill. The biscuits were tough. I couldn’t chew through the crust. No sausage in the gravy, and it was seriously salty (and I like salt). I’m not going to write them off completely as their milk and other dairy products are great. I will try ice cream next time. If it sucks, this location is dead to me.

Packaged items like milk and carton ice cream are good. I buy milk here frequently.
The dining area however is very dirty. The floors are always filthy. Tables still have food residue after being bussed. Dried ketchup all over the counters and trash bins. The drinks machines leak on the floors. Employees have dirty, dingy uniforms. Many of the ceiling tiles are dirty and broken.
This is a terrible location for an otherwise decent chain.
I would not take my family or anybody I care about to eat here.

Braums is the ice cream & milk shake place I prefer and this was the nicer of the two locations near me before the other remodeled. Generally, other than their fries which are usually good, the food here is meh. Yet the ice cream is what keeps bringing me back and they are generally reasonably priced for what you get. $ 2 for a small vs sonic that you couldn’t even get a mini shake for that price, and its actually ice cream.
The staff is generally what I would expect out of fast food, younger still in school teenagers with a few older individuals that are in the managerial positions. Usually polite though unfortunately if you have to change something up you get a confused look. If your just ordering ice cream changes are usually done correctly, for me usually its just a no strawberry sauce … but something like a sandwich it always comes out how their trained to make it, for me I ask for no mayo … every time it comes out with mayo …

My family went to this store today. We had a situation with poor customer service & ended with extremely bad management behavior. My family used to frequent this store several times a week, but after today my family & my local friends are never going to that location again.

I have never been dissatisfied with Braums! The burgers are delicious & freshly made and the fries are so crisp! I There’s a timeless feeling whenever I dine in and its a cool experience. You see elderly folks all the time and young children trying to look over the window to select their ice cream flavor. The workers are polite and patient (I take forever to decide; too many options) lol.

Went through the drive-​through and ordered two mixes, one with reeses and oreos, paid, received our order and the one ordered with an extra topping didn’t have either topping. We went back and went inside to get it remade, we stated what it should have been twice and the employee repeated it back, gave us the remade order and took back the wrong one, and we headed home. Only to get home dig into the bottom of the ice cream to mix it up and find that instead of reeses it was m’n’ms. At this point we really didn’t want to go back and stand in line again but it has left us with a horrible feeling for this location and it’s pretty frustrating for only one of us to be able to enjoy our ice cream.

Love their shakes. Such an odd place and location. Part mini-​mart and part burger joint. However, I have a new favorite shake place in Hurst. Before it was Mooyahs.
For $ 4, you get a large shake. I think the price and portion are higher at Mooyahs.

I got the grilled chicken sandwich. I asked for it to be dry. The bun was drenched in some kind of yellow stuff they probably called butter. The chicken was totally unseasoned, tasteless and the whole thing was flat. The fries were equally tasteless with no seasoning and soggy. only eatable, no more.
I was annoyed that they refused to sell us ice cream in the pints at the window, it was pouring down rain that is why we went through the drive by. So even though we purchased our yucky food, I still had to go in and get the ice cream.
They had a special of 2 for $ 6, but when I asked, the worker didn’t know, she had to ask her supervisor.
We bought Chocolate cheesecake with chocolate chunks. It was frothy and very light brown. It didn’t taste like cheesecake and it barely tasted like chocolate. The chunks were very much like paraffin.
We also bought pralines and cream ice cream. It too was fairly tasteless but when you found a praline it was crunchy and sweet
I was very disappointed at this visit and probably won’t go back.
There is no comparison of this ice cream to Baskin-​Robbins. what was i thinking.

Love going to Braum’s for milk, ice cream, egg nog, etc dairy in their market center. Their milk is hormone-​free, and their ice cream super premium (try the chocolate with hazelnuts; it’s better than Ferrero Rocher). Menu-​wise, they are as full-​service as Sonic, but way, wayyy better in terms of burgers, fries, shakes, sundaes, root beer floats…
The funniest thing about Braums is that they are universally staffed by teenagers on their first day at work.

«What’s on the German chocolate sundae?»
«Um, I don’t know.»

*Finishes order*
«Um, sorry I have to wait on someone else. They haven’t taught me to use the cash register yet.»
Hurst
«Can I get the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit sandwich?»
«Um, I don’t think you can do substitutions. It has to be sausage.»
«.But the sign says ‘bacon, sausage, or ham.’»
«Where?»

Braums is the redemption of today, after a sorrowful experience at a particular location of one of my favorite franchises, I came to Braums to relax and cool off from a long day driving around in the hot sun.
I’ve never had a bad experience with Braums. The ice cream is always good, and at this particular location, the servers are friendly and sociable. You feel like you’re part of the family and they will joke or ask you how your day is. It’s a good energy here.
I came here with a heat induced headache, and left feeling pretty good, and I would say that is the best thing about the place. Their food is actually pretty good too, but as they are known for the ice cream, that is what I get when I come here, and that is what I review for. If you ever need to cool off and you’re driving down Pipeline, stop here. You will not be disappointed

Love this palce, always clean and always friendly.

When ever in town, we hit Braums Ice Cream as many times as possible. I absolutely love the German chocolate sunday, rich chocolate ice cream, covered with carmel, hot fudge chocolate, pecans, whip cream and a cherry. This is so good, I dream about it! Store is clean, the staff friendly, and the prices seem reasonable.

Great little store & ice cream shop

I’m not a big fan of ice cream. Not high on my dessert list when there’s cupcakes, tiramisu and cookies to eat. Every now and then I’ll want something cold — mainly when it’s hot — and this is down the street. It’s pretty average ice cream — lots of flavors that change often — I prefer Marble Slab but this is super affordable — like under $ 2 for 2 scoops.
Now, I haven’t tried their food, but I hear the hamburgers are good and they even have a small selection of groceries.

you can’t beat a classic banana split! even with all the cleverly named fro-​yo, boba tea, cupcake and etc shops opening around I tend to return to braum’s when I’m in the mood for a sweet treat.
they have an excellent peppermint ice cream which is my favorite. if you’re into that sorta thing its peppermint ice cream with little green and red crunchy gems of peppermint candies. a great contrast in textures and wonderful flavor. i either get a scoop of it in their made in house waffle cones or blended into a milk shake. the strawberry shortcake sundae is also delish. a slice of pound cake cut 1inch thick not the angel food cake stuff sits beneath two scoops of vanilla ice cream topped with strawberries, whipped cream and a cherry (pic posted)

Braum’s is one of those places for me…
The burgers are large (¹⁄₃ lb.) and taste ok (especially like a big onion if you don’t have them leave it off), but the fries are bland.
The ice cream tastes good, but (by itself) the frozen yogurt has a weird taste to me (except in a Mix, but the taste is usually masked by the mix-​ins).
I love the milk that they sell. It seems to last longer and taste less watered down then store milk (except for Promised Land). The meat is good quality too.
And as funny as I am about a restaurants cleanliness (with reasonable expectations), I seem to let Braum’s slide (a few gnats or flies here and there, the bathrooms a little «spotty», the white water that they replace the ice cream scoop into: you get the idea).
But I keep coming back… and I can’t explain why.
McDonald’s has far superior ice cream and food to me.
So as I watch the girl behind the counter using the cup that she just dropped on the floor, picked up, and started making my Health Mix with; the mystery only thickens for me.
BTW, has anyone else noticed how the older Braum’s always seem to have a subtle lingering onion smell… maybe it’s just me. But that might explain the funny taste in the frozen yogurt.
FYI, this location has something that I’ve never seen at any other Braum’s. It has a closed off glass enclosed dining area within the main dining area. (probably used for private parties and company purposes)

The price was right — it’s damn cheap here. But I’m sorry, the quality of ice cream is less than desirable. First, I asked for a caramel and hot fudge sundae, and before I could tell the guy what ice cream I wanted, he turned around and left, and made it for me with vanilla ice cream.
I asked him, «Uhm, don’t I get to pick what ice cream I wanted?»
He stared at me and said, ‘yeah.“
I was like, «Oh, okay, I’m sorry you made that, but I wanted cookies and cream and chocolate chip as the ice cream.»
He gave me a nasty look, threw the sundae he made out in the garbage and mumbled, «you didn’t say.»
I said back, «You ran off before I could say it.»
Anyway, service is what you expect for a cheap ice cream place. The ice cream wasn’t even good. I’d prefer Blue Bell from Kroger’s. And also, once you’ve been to Fenton’s in Oakland, other ice cream sundaes really pale in comparison. I could almost taste the preservatives in the hot fudge and caramel. It was quite a disappointment.
Also, for those who are NY’ers and know of Stewart’s — the gas station/​convenience store/​ice cream shop — that’s exactly what it’s like at Braum’s.

You remember the Biblical referral to milk and honey in Paradise. Quite honestly, I won’t be surprised to be greeted at Heaven’s Gate with a hot fudge sundae from Braum’s Ice Cream and Dairy Stores.
The ice cream is delicious, creamy and not melted. There is enough hot fudge to go with the last bite. The almonds are toasted, there is the dollop of whip cream, and of course, a cherry on top. If you are not wanting to get fat, go on a strict diet for a couple of weeks prior to coming to Braum’s, but don’t deny yourself this experience. And, get a double dip — make it last as long as possible. You will leave with a smile on your face
They have lots of other ice cream desserts and some day I will try something else; however in the immediate future, I plan to get another hot fudge sundae. Yummmmmmm I’m already smiling.

I finally made it to Braums! We were on our way back from the Tarrant County auto show and had a milkshake craving and found a Braums nearby so we made a stop. I got a strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate milkshake. It was awesome. Tastes just like when I used to mix my Neapolitan flavors all together when I was a kid… ok so maybe I still do mix them all together (shhhh — don’t tell!) Yum.
