Arctic Island & Cafe

Really good homemade hard ice cream and waffle bowls. I was craving them while they were closed during winter. Not a chalky milky taste which is amazing, all the flavors can come through!
They have an indoor cafe now as well with coffee's and other stuff. Also they make cake's!(Perfect for birthday's, parties etc.)

I really needed that ice after walking the Rand Land Tract. I didn't even know it existed! It was a terrific hike and right in the City of Syracuse. Amazing.

I had a hot fudge Brownie Sunday
i liked it but next time I'll remember to ask without nuts. other than that it was a nice experience. the new look is kinda like a more modern style design very trendy

I’m a huge fan of their cotton candy icecream; it’s the best anywhere. I don’t love their hot fudge, it was basically warm chocolate syrup last time I was there. Their soft serve vanilla is great too.

Was not to happy with my turtle shell Sunday me and my brother went to visit a couple of days ago we ordered the same thing but got two different Sundays one with pecans and one with other kind of nuts the ice cream was extremely soft and it melted extremely fast very messy.

Went for the Ice Cream. It was a cool day and the home made ice cream was crystalized not good. The young lady did say it was already melting. Maybe they have to fix the temps on the ice cream.

Looking at this place from the outside, or looking at the menu online, you might be tempted to pass this place by. Don't! It was amazing! I had a hot Asian sandwich and a bowl of tortilla soup, it was fantastic! And the inside has a gas fireplace that keeps it cozy in the winter. Looking forward to eating here again!

Cute little local ice-cream stand. Very tasty homemade hard ice-creams. They have Spanish peanuts, too! And that hardening chocolate syrup!

The owner, or who I believe is the owner, she is such a sweet person to the point it makes you think she isn't from Upstate NY. I particularly like this place and have been going for years. They not only sell ice cream but they also sell hot food inside, which shocked me how good but also healthy it was. I gave it a 5 star due to never being disappointed and always greeted with pleasant staff, no matter who is serving

I love that they have vegan soft serve options. The vegan vanilla was delicious! Staff was friendly, and wait time was short for a Saturday afternoon.
