As an ice cream lover, this is definitely a must! I love hard ice cream but this cute Dreamette in Springfield is literally a dream of soft serve combinations! I absolutely love that they have a vegan vanilla. I tried their s'mores Sundae (my favorite) and the cookies and cream with vegan vanilla is so good! The owner is one of the sweetest people I've ever met and she's more than welcome to explain any of the menu items as well as the background of Dreamette Springfield. I can tell so much love is put into the things they make here and it has made me a forever customer! All good vibes at Dreamette!
Came here yesterday after lunch next door at Frank Cotten's BBQ. I had been wanting to try Dreamette for awhile since I was told that they had dairy free ice cream. Not only did they have dairy free ice cream, but they had gluten free cones too! No one EVER has GF cones. So thank you for that. I ordered the small dairy free vanilla ice cream. It was huge for being only a small! I was so happy. You can barely notice a difference in taste between the real thing and non dairy. The owner was really nice too. I usually don't like orange dreamsicle, but when he had me try, it didn't taste like fake orange. It tasted like actual citric orange. I was surprised. My friend ordered their Oreo shake. They have seating outside only. In the front, then there's like a drive through area for whatever the building used to be. There's also seating in the back and a little stand to take pictures with ice cream cones on it. They offer a variety of ice cream types. I can't wait to go back and try more. This place definitely amazed me and I'm ready to go back here and try out their other locations when the mood strikes. Thank you for offering dairy and gluten free options for people with sensitivities like me.
Great Ice Cream stop on walk back to our AirBnB. So much history and huge selections of delicious flavors. Highly recommend.
Cute little soft serve ice cream window service. Very handy ice cream cone holders grew for saving hands from sticky melting ice cream. Generous portions, cones, cups, sundaes or shakes. It's a good location for take away ice cream desserts.
This place is amazing! The owner was so super sweet, I'm a local and my partner was from out of town but it was my first time here and she came out to explain the whole menu to us! I got the pineapple dole whip, which is my absolute favorite from Disney so I had to get it here. It was just as amazing, if not even better. Not too sweet but just perfect! This place is an outside place, you can sit and relax and there's good shade! It's really chill if you can beat the summer heat. Definitely have to come back to try more flavors and more signature items!
Best service and best dolé whip like ever!! Gave samples and didn't rush. Tried the orange dole whip and damn!! You need this!! Can swirl too like dreamsicle. Mmmmm!!! Go and patronize this great addition to the neighborhood
This location is so cute, and the people are so nice! They really go out of their way to make your visit special. :) They have dole whip, and that's my favorite. My hubby had a milkshake, and his looked pretty awesome too. A wonderful addition to the Springfield neighborhood.
Stopped by for a dipped cone and to my surprise---they had strawberry!! Most places just have vanilla or chocolate soft serve so I had to get it---and it took me back to childhood. I also got it dipped in chocolate...and it tasted like I was eating a chocolate covered strawberry. Soooo delish. Three words---Dip, baby...dip! Met the owners and they were so nice and helpful. They even have wet wipe dispensers AND pop-up canopies for shade.
They sent me an invite to stop in for the grand opening, but I could not make there on Saturday. But, I was able to come by on Sunday afternoon. I was going to order a milkshake, until I saw some delicious looking contraption of a dessert in a man's hands. I asked what did he order. He said, "it's a banana split in a cup". So, that's exactly what I ordered. I should of ordered a kids size. I ordered the medium and man that thing was HUGE! So, I asked for a lid and brought the rest home. I was only able to eat about a 1/4 of it. The Owner(I believe he was the Owner)asked me if I had the Customer Rewards Cards. I told him, "no" & he told me he wanted me to come back soon and punched my card and handed it to me. Wow! I get off work at 3:30pm & I work downtown-so I hope to come after work occasionally. It should not be too busy at that time of day. He did tell me that it is a separate franchise from the others, so the card was only good at the Springfield location. Welcome to the neighborhood!
