Had to go across a whole bridge just to try this place and it was worth it. Busters has options, so many that make it hard to just pick one so I picked two and that was difficult lol I had 2 scoops of Carmel apple and New York cheesecake so delicious. They do have daily free options as well, can't wait to check this place out on my next visit.

It just doesn't get any better than this. Love their pistachio ice cream mixed in with a scoop of mint chocolate chipHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Mar 28, 2021
So yummy! Great selection of old-fashion ice cream. Pretty large menu and they will build whatever you ask for really. I love everything I've had. I only wish they had some lactose-free options because my daughter has major lactose issues. If that's not a problem and you want good, creamy ice cream, don't drive past bruster's!

Usually is a great place, Ice cream is delicious but the last few times was disappointing because I have the app and get points but is unable to use them, along with the birthday $3. Spoke to supervisor and still doesn't take points, what is the purpose of collecting the points or giving the $3 if you can't use them.

I love this little gem. I mean real homemade ice cream...with a "drive thru"?!!!
So when it's like 30 degrees out and you want ice cream w/o getting out of the car...this is the place for you.
Employees are always super friendly and portions are so generous. A Small is huge!!!! There are sooo many different flavors!!! I'd say well over 15 flavors...could be more. If you need lids, just ask.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Victor H.San Diego, CA4177639May 6, 2018
Southern Banana Puddin' Is Spectacular!
My new fav ice cream spot!
Seriously, if you have the opportunity and going to splurge on a different twist on Bananas give this baby a try. It's texture is light and fluffy yet with a creamy airy taste. Not too sweet and with some type of cookie parts mixed in with it. I forgot to ask what else is in it.
I wish I lived in the area so I could have more opportunities to explore the other flavors.
I will be back when I can. I have it in a waffle cone for approximately $4.
They let you sample and even give free ice cream to your dog if he/she is with you!! 2thumbs up for that bonus!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Amber D.Annapolis, MD1142410May 20, 2022
They messed up and gave us a different flavor than ordered. While this may have been an honest mistake, when asked about the flavor mix up, they lied and said this was in fact the flavor I requested (chocolate birthday cake) and did not offer to correct it. I received plain chocolate ice cream, I was told at first it was chocolate cake batter. When I mentioned we ordered chocolate birthday cake the response was "oh, that's what that is". I truly would not usually take the time to write about a mixup like this; however, this is not an isolated incident at this location

Their ice cream is delicious, however I'd pass on the yogurt. I've stopped by Bruster's a few times now when visiting a friend in the area and enjoyed my ice cream each time. This past trip, we ordered the apple-themed flavors since, ya know, it IS fall.
The caramel apple ice cream is delicious. If any ounce of you enjoys apple, please try it. We also ordered the apple yogurt (dutch apple crunch maybe?) and it ended up being more of a green apple flavor which is not what I had expected. It also was a bit icy and not nearly as creamy as fro-yo I've had in the past.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Corey H.California, MD19380104Oct 19, 2018
The girl at the front window got smart with me after I asked her for napkins. Her response was I usually hand those out when I give your card and receipt back. You cant hand a 4 year old a ice cream cone with sprinkles all over it without napkins or a cup. It was somebody without a uniform on so they must have been a manager. To the people at Brusters please be a little nicer when somebody ask you for some napkins. If I come there and spend $15 I think I deserve some napkins
