Mitchell’s Homemade Ice Cream

This may be the best ice cream I’ve ever had. And the few times I’ve gone there (I usually get a couple of quarts to hold me over for a few months at a time) the customer service has just been phenomenal. One of the few places I’ve actually looked forward to going to since moving to Cleveland heights! (Is it just me or is customer service in Cleveland terrible almost everywhere? I hate running errands here! Lol)

If you come to Cleveland this is a must do! The ice cream is phenomenal and is made with local dairy and products!
The Wildberry Crumble is awesome!

Picture the best ice cream you have ever had, and then imagine better thank that. Flavors you would never dream up (dark ale) and servings that are generous. We were there when it was snowing out and the place was packed!

Mitchell’s is the beloved local supplier of happiness, and this store embodies all that is warm and cheerful on a cold winter’s day. You can probably find Mitchell’s at a grocery or shop near you!
Along with the usual lineup of classic Mitchell’s flavors (Caramel Sea Salt, Toasted Pistachio, Blue Cosmo), they round up some seasonal flavors (
), some of which really should be offered year-​round in my opinion. Some flavors can be found only in their packaged pint form (Great Lakes. Go for the Great Lakes. And then invite me over.), and you can buy Mitchell’s cakes for the birthday boy/​girl who’s lucky to have you as their friend. I’ve heard their malts are good as well, but haven’t gotten to try them yet! Fro-​yo, you ask? They’ve got that too.
After several samples and much debate (Chocolate Peanut Butter Chunk vs. Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk??) I got a Taster’s Trio of Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk, Toasted Pistachio, and Bing Cherry Chocolate Chunk. For a portion that would have cost me easily $ 8 in SF, I paid just over $ 5. It seemed like almost too much after a massive lunch I was still digesting two hours later, but Mitchell’s must mix in crack with their ice cream because I couldn’t stop until the cup was empty. It’s creamy without melting too quickly, and flavorful with just the right amount of sweetness. And if you do need water, there’s a little station at the counter next to a wooden basket with magazines. I’ve liked all of their flavors so far, but I have to say I really like their Great Lakes, Toasted Pistachio, and Caramel Sea Salt.
The inside of this store is bright and family friendly, with just the right touch of earthiness with the wooden surfaces and little plants on tables. A nice refuge from the harsh reality of work/​school life.

Save room for desert when you are in Cleveland! When I first came to the Cleveland Clinic I did my usual restaurant search and knew I was in for a treat when an ice cream parlor was atop many lists.
Mitchell’s is worth the hype. They have so many flavors and each one is just packed with goodies. My favorite turned out to be the Key Lime Pie. It was made especially good with the gram cracker crust mixed throughout.

I love ice cream.
I’m lactose intolerant.
This is a problem.
Solution: vegan ice cream. Delicious, delicious vegan salted caramel pecan! (and dinosaur sprinkles) It tasted like nutty cookie-​dough butter! Changed my life.

Can I have Banana Cream Pie ice cream every day for the rest of my life?! Oh m gee it’s amazing!
My dad has worked for a local dairy company my entire life, free ice cream is one of the perks! Yet I have never been an ice cream lover until now, thanks to Mitchell’s Banana Cream Pie ice cream! I can’t even begin to describe how ridiculously delicious this stuff is! I now crave ice cream daily (this specific ice cream any-​who) which has never happened to me. Good job Mitchell’s, you deserve a gold star and a big thumbs up!

My dad loved Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream and I’m sorry he’s not around to enjoy the amazing Bing Cherry Chocolate Chunk ice cream I had tonight. Creamy, flavorful, fresh and perfectly blended. Served at just the right consistency, suspended between hard and soft JUST RIGHT! I’m coming back.

Come on! It is ice cream. There is no way I could give less than five stars.
The chocolate chip coffee was awesome.

So… I’m slightly addicted to Mitchell’s ice cream. I have been to this location multiple times either to have a scoop of ice cream at the shop or to buy some to take home. I honestly cannot think of a flavor that I’ve had here that I didn’t love. Some of my current favorites for the summer are Campfire Smores and Key Lime Pie. Since the flavors change seasonally, if you like a flavor make sure to enjoy it before it’s out of rotation.
Tip: you can buy a pint here at the Mitchell’s location or at some local grocery stores for the same price (5.99). HOWEVER… when you buy a pint here, it comes with 3 free cones, so you can make your own little ice cream cones at home.

Excellent ice cream! Great variety with unique flavor a like a rhubarb crisp and snores! Wish they just had some more sorbet options!

I love that Mitchell’s opened up a location in Uptown. Sometimes it’s nice to walk around University Circle after visiting one of the museums and now I have the perfect place to pitstop for a snack. Just like every other Mitchell’s, the wonderful aroma of homemade ice cream greets you as you walk in. They have a nice outdoor seating area as well. I had a negative experience the last time I came in (which they quickly corrected), but this time, it was perfect. I recommend adding a warm brownie to a scoop or two of your favorite flavor!

Mitchells fantastic. They have the basic flavors and nonconventional ones. I cannot even name my favorites because I like so many. Anything with peanut butter or caramel is delicious. The junior scoop is perfect for me when I want dessert but not a huge amount. This place always puts me in a good mood.

Two words: COOKIE DOUGH … MY FAV.
I’ve been in Cleveland for almost 6 months now and I just had Mitchell’s for the first time last week. What was I thinking? I don’t know but I have been missing out on what may be the best cookie dough ice cream I’ve ever had. It is really really sweet though so one scoop is large enough. PS their scoops are fairly large, I wouldn’t go for two without seeing what one is like.
They have a wide variety of classic and unique flavors, everyone is bound to find something they like. The girls working were very friendly, and helped us sample some flavors.
Store was clean which is a bonus. They also have some of the flavors by the gallon in the freezer and also ice cream cakes ready to be taken home! I will be back for more: D

Everyone in Cleveland kept raving about this place, and I was a little worried that the bar was set too high and I’d be disappointed.
Well, I wasn’t. This place is CRAZY good.
I got the cofee chocolate chunk, which is FULL of chocolate bits as soft as a brownie, but apparently pure chocolate, and the vegan sea salt caramel pecan. I’m not sure how vegan it was, because it tasted creamy and delicious. Both in a perfectly sweetened waffle cone (because cake cones are for amateurs)? SO GOOD.
And I like that they didn’t judge me for the amount of flavors I wanted to try. It’s expensive for ice cream (I spent $ 5), but the amount of ice cream was like a meal in itself.

Wow. I’m an ice cream snob and I was totally knocked off my feet by their ice cream. I ordered the campfire s’more ice cream and it was amazing. I tried the vegan chocolate ice cream and that was delicious. Best vegan ice cream I’ve ever had. It’s relatively cheap too and the scoop sizes are pretty big. I ordered a junior scoop and it was the size of your typical small scoop and it was only $ 2.35.

I honestly can’t believe I haven’t written a review for Mitchell’s yet. I’ve lived in Cleveland for about three years, and my favorite place by FAR is Mitchell’s. I have already started stockpiling it for my upcoming move out of the area. The ice cream is so creamy and so full of flavor. I haven’t had a flavor that I didn’t like yet, but some of my faves include Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup, Campfire Smores, and Pumpkin Spice. The sundaes are HUGE and amazing. Their homemade whipped cream and Bordeaux soaked cherries really makes the experience different from your run of the mill ice cream places. You MUST TRY the hot fudge. It’s amazing. I am sure there is a better adjective, but you gotta try it out. I think I’m drooling now thinking about it. I’ve recently tried out their milkshakes, and they are definitely worth every.single.calorie.
The stores are always super clean in front and have that amazing waffle cone smell that lets your belly know what treats you have in store for it. The workers are always delightful and act like my obsession with Mitchell’s is completely normal

My three favorite flavors at Mitchell’s include Toasted Pistachio, Rocky Road, and I consider the Caramel Sea Salt one of the best.
Always ask to sample something before making a final decision and if you’re at this particular location, say sup to my boy Chauncey A.

I loved this place. A wide variety of house-​made ice creams and even smoothies behind the counter. On a nice summer day, we got some ice cream here and enjoyed a walk in the park with our delicious treasures in hand. My fiancé and I ordered a mango smoothie to share, but a lot of friends had a variety of ice creams which I got to sample.
Very flavorful and creamy; decadent. Don’t have a favorite flavor as I’ve only been here once, but it’s definitely worth a stop if you’re around and like homemade ice cream (and how could you not, I mean really???)

I love sweets but for some bizarre reason, I rarely crave ice cream… but Mitchell’s definitely made its way into my list of things I crave.
Went twice over the span of about 4 days. First time I got the caramel fudge brownie (very rich and sweet, but in the best way possible) and second time i got the peanut butter chocolate chunk (not as rich and wasn’t as peanut-​buttery as I expected, but still delicious).
Prices are reasonable, and a single scoop should be more than enough to fill you up. They also had some pretty creative flavors as well.
Visited from out of town so chances are I’ll rarely be back (if ever) but highly recommended to those in the area!
