"An Ann Arbor institution for close to 85 years, locals have made Washtenaw Dairy a part of their morning routine for the housemade donuts, coffee, and the news — which comes from either the newsstand or good old fashioned gossip. In the evenings, it’s a popular spot for families to snack on ice cream cones and sundaes." - John Reyes

We waiting in line for 40 minutes to give this place a try. The line wrapped around the inside of the building and extended outside. Unfortunately, I don’t think the ice cream was worth the wait. Though it was good, it tasted just like average ice cream you can buy at the grocery store. Additionally, the line moved soo slow, with just 3 people working at a time. With the amount of business, they likely could’ve hired some more help for the busy evening. Finally, the place does not lend itself well for indoor seating due to the long lines. However, I will give them props for probably the most reasonable prices in town and for the most generous serving sizes! Bravo for catering to large groups and families as well. Would I wait in a long line for the ice cream again? No. Would I come back if there was no line? Sure. (Pictured are single scoop cup/waffle cone. Attached are videos of some of the flavors- we weren’t able to look at the options before ordering due to the chaos at the register.)

I got the single size of rainbow sherbet and it was fantastic! The ice cream sizes are very very generous so unless you are really hungry the kids size bowl would probably be a good size. Super friendly staff!

Tasty and satisfying for the single ice cream here! Best ice cream experience ever! Creamy and not overly sweet! Highly recommend!

Easily the best ice cream in Ann Arbor. The staff are really nice and friendly. The atmosphere is straight out a kids story book. A neighborhood centered ice cream shop that oddly sells lottery tickets and miscellaneous groceries but I can’t complain. The ice cream is so good.

This place serves great ice cream in very large portions. They also sell many other items in this little store. The staff were helpful and friendly.

I was having a really bad week and I came in on a whim to treat myself to ice cream. The young lady gave me a very generous scoop of ice cream. It caught me by surprise and it really made my day!

Absolutely loved this place. We were only here for the weekend and we stopped in 3 times. The place is very cool, old fashioned ice cream shop. The folks behind the counter were super nice and helpful. We stopped in and got 2 dozen donuts. I can't believe how good they were and how inexpensive. My favorite was the apple cider donut! Microwaved for 12 seconds and it was unreal! I had THREE! Stopped in again for coffee and snacks. Finally came back for Ice cream. Everyone loved the flavors they got. But I had the black cherry, which is one of my favorite flavors. I don't know I have ever had a better black cherry ice cream. And coming from NY, again, the prices were great. I plan on coming back hear EVERY time I visit! See ya next time!
