Michael’s Dairy

This place was purchased by new owners this past July and is now Papi’s Ice Cream. Looks exactly the same, and you can still get ice cream and fudge, but it’s a little different.

For four bucks I wish the ice cream was better quality. I had three different favors and all of them were subpar. I don’t know if it was too much air or ice milk in the cream, but it just wasn’t as dense as good home made ice cream should be.
Plus, I really dislike ice cream parlours that shamelessly upsell their larger sizes. What I mean is they offer two sizes; a «regular» 2 scoops for $ 3.30 and a «large» 3 scoops for $ 4.00. Now the owners must think customers are stupid because based on the price of a large price, a regular size should cost $ 2.66. Based on their skewed prices, most value-​minded customers will order the «large» size. I know I did and fell right into their trap. I’d almost have more respect for them if they posted a sign saying «FACE IT PAL, YOU’RE GETTING THE FREAKING FOUR DOLLAR LARGE SIZE.» Oh, and forget about a kids size. What kids size? I didn’t see any kids size listed anywhere.

Huge portions of high quality ice cream, and conveniently located in an area of restaurants making it an easy dessert stop. The store’s pretty small, though, so sometimes seating is difficult. It’s nice to get your ice cream and then walk along the river.

I can’t believe this place isn’t already on Unilocal.Great fudge. I can’t stress that enough. GREAT FUDGE. Great ice cream too. Some friends and I came here after dinner, looking to get some dessert, and we were all blown away.
The others I was with all got the Pumpkin Pie ice cream, which they absolutely loved. According to them, it tasted exactly like pumpkin pie with whipped cream.
I on the other hand, ordered Mint Chocolate Chip Soft Serve, which was also excellent. They have over twenty flavors of soft serve, which they make using flavor extracts. I was a little skeptical at first, but I have to admit, the effect works perfectly. It tasted just like the real deal.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for ice cream (they have over 20 flavors), soft serve, fudge, an ice cream cake for a special occasion, or a treat for their dog (pretty much ice cream and a doggie treat).
