Peterson's Ice Cream Depot

I'm shocked by how bad this place was considering the great google reviews! Everything was grossly overpriced. They charge $1.50 per topping, and 2 scoops of ice cream in a bowl is $10! Also, I don't believe their claim of the ice cream being home-made. I purchased the key lime flavor, and it tasted and looked incredibly artificial. They advertised on their sign that the ice cream contained graham cracker crust chunks. I received about 3 crumbs of crust in the entire 2 scoops (pictures attached). This place definitely seems like a tourist trap.

A fun treat always. We like to bring guests out here or celebrate the end of the school year. The flavors options change so there is always something new to try. The milkshakes are great. The portion sizes tend to be on the larger side. It’s a cute little ice cream shop and the kids get a kick out of the little train at the front. Bonus points for a bathroom!

We have had friends declare this the best ice cream in America. So we decided to head to Petersons ourselves. It's a very cute and busy outlet. The ice cream is tasty and also very expensive. They have a limited menu and have seasonal specials too.

Chocolate drama and Abracadabra....rich chocolate and double ( maybe triple) ginger. Superb flavor.....distinct, bold, creamy. For a "corner" of a town this was a great stop. Parking can be found at the surrounding places.

Having Peterson’s in the neighborhood is so special. It’s so cute and is such a charming place to take visitors + the ice cream is YUM!!! We love that the Peterson’s live right next to it and supporting a family owned business! Plus, all the kids who work there seem to go to school in the district. Best feeling to support local when the local spot is the best :)

We always go to this ice cream store when we are in Clifton. It satisfies our family's sweet tooth after having lunch or dinner. I wish it had more seating. I wonder if they can get some space from the restaurant next door. We ordered 7 ice creams and it was such a beautiful day for it. It was not crowded even though it was Easter Sunday. Even during the fall season, if we are in Clifton, we always go to this ice cream store. My family and I are so happy that they are still thriving in Clifton!

The lines are long for a reason. They have experience and are good at what they do. I love soft serve and their chocolate soft serve never disappoints. But they have a wide variety of frozen custard, ice cream, gelato, shakes, etc. We have been enjoying their ice cream for years and my puppy loves their pup cup which is too small in his opinion but I think it's just the right size. 🤭

So glad we stopped at Peterson's. We wanted something, but after a big lunch, didn't really want dinner. After spending a couple of hours canoeing on a nearby lake, we thought ice cream would be a tasty treat. The dogs were in tow, they are always up for a pup cup. We decided to split a brownie sundae with one scoop of lockdown therapy (Graham cracker ice cream) and happy ending (cookie dough). The sundae included hot fudge, caramel sauce, oreo crumbles, cookie pieces, whipped cream, and a cherry. A great treat for us and the pups at a very affordable price (only $8 plus tip). The line was long but moved quickly. We waited approximately 30 minutes, but the line was almost to the sidewalk out front when we arrived. There were so many options, we had time to really read through the menu. Plus, the puppies loved all of the attention they received. We will definitely stop at Peterson's next time we are in the area.
