Beautiful place, it looks fun and nostalgic. Came in for a couple shakes, asked for the "eat in" stainless old fashion cups, at 20$ for 2 shakes I'd expect that. I got some watery shake inside a paper cup served by the rudest old prude asian lady that absolutely hates her job and won't smile or listen to an instruction. I feel sorry for the owner of this nice place! What a letdown, first 1-star review. You gotta be really bad to get a 1 star from me....
Loard's ice cream is excellent!! I spoke with one of the owners one time and Lourdes has a very high fat content which is what makes it delicious LOL!!I had mocha almond fudge with fudge and almonds over the top, can't beat it!! Perfect end to a perfect outing!❤️
The underlying vanilla ice cream is wonderful but all their flavors are far too subtle.
Have you ever heard the term Lip stick on a pig? Thats what this place is, it looks good when you enter but ultimately its just a facade....I don't like giving bad reveiws but they earned this one. First off, the ice cream is fine, but once again I've been reminded by their staff as to why I do NOT recommend coming here. I visited on a Saturday night @ 9:20pm, on the door it says they close at 10. There was a large group of about 10 already served and enjoying their desserts that were served to them in plastic containers. I ordered one of their pre-set sundae menu items and was told " sorry to close to closing" and wouldn't allow me to order it..... The only reason I could see you not wanting to serve me a sundae is if it was served in a glass dish and had walked in at 5 till closing. Not the case here. Unfortunately, the current owner who purchased this place has left it as - they have the same sun bleached faded pictures of once tasty treats that were served decades ago along with the decor and interior. They should have chaThey have no intentions of customer retention, they purposely under staff and cut corners everywhere they can. Perhaps the better business plan would have been, keep the customer service and change the décor.Just as a recommendation, Knudsens family creamery is across the blvd. They actuallymake their own ice cream, serve it in a dish and the staff won't cut you off 40minutes before closing.
Always a great experience, especially when they carry my classic flavor of butter pecan!
The service was great and the building was very clean. The ice cream was delicious.
I love Loard's Ice Cream, so when we were in the neighborhood and came across this one, we had to get some. Cute vibes with pastel pink walls. My little nieces would love coming here. They also sell little chocolates and other sweets. Other Loard's I've been to are more generous with their ice cream scoops. I also got a box of truffles that were on the pricier side. The truffles are HUGE. Such large chocolates that I can't finish in one sitting. I don't think the price of the truffle reflects the quality of ingredients, though, so I wouldn't pay for them again.
The ice cream & service were great but $10 for a milkshake is ridiculous. Not to mention it wasn't even a large one. I'd just had a tooth pulled and needed something smooth, so I paid.As a business owner I understand the cost of doing business. I also understand that a $10 milkshake would put them out of business if it were not for their location. I will be making my milkshakes at home from now on.
Ice cream and the lady at the counter was amazing. Line was out the door but she took her time and was very patient with everyone and for her working by herself she did an amazing job. Ice creams always good and the vibe is like a old school ice cream parlor
AwfulThe taste of ice cream here sucks made my stomach hurt so bad
