Frosty Joes

What a treat! Fantastic ice cream shack with many flavors and options. Will definitely make Frosty Joe’s a habit.

This place is ok. I’ve been a few times and had mixed results. The first time was good, quick service and a standard issue twist with sprinkles. The next time I went, I tried the amaretto soft serve in a dish. It took a really long time to come out despite there not being many people. The serving also seemed really small compared to the twist in a cone I had gotten last time.
I went again and really wanted to try the cannoli ice cream. They carry the Perry’s brand. So I ordered this and two pup sundaes. It took about five minutes to come out, and when I tried the cannoli, it tasted like coconut. It wasn’t bad, but they definitely messed up and gave me the toasted coconut flavor. The line was too long at that point so I didn’t try to return it. My pups were eagerly waiting their dishes with vanilla and a dog bone. If I get them again I’ll ask for them in cones though, I think it’s be easier for them to eat.
I want to go back and give it one more try, so I can get the real cannoli but I won’t go out of my way. I prefer humdinger on front street, but this place is ok if you’re in the area. They do have lots of unique flavors.

holy. 24 flavors of soft serve.
if you are in binghamton and you haven’t been here… get your butt over there.
not much parking but usually isn’t too busy! def check out frosty joe’s! order a banana split and enjoy it on their picnic tables! yummmmmmmy.

It’s a summer kind of place
Half way from the job you finished 100 miles ago to the home you want to get to.
But it’s summer,
there’s time and sun in the sky,
the afternoon is warm,
and the trees around Frosty Joe’s shimmer in a gentle breeze.
A soft serve does sound good.
So you pull in
to the sound of junior leaguers in the minivans,
daring each other to try crazy flavors,
the kids behind the counter giggling and texting
about the kids in front of the counter.
It’s a summer kind of place.
You search the whiteboard and you think maybe ‘coconut’? then ‘rum’?
and the girl behind the counter says you can have them both. Why not?
So they take the rum and the coconut
and they mix them in the magic system they have for 24 or 24 times 24 flavors.
The cone is so right, so cold, it closes your eyes,
and you are on Playa Flamingo, a vacation long ago.
It’s a summer kind of place.
When you open your eyes
you see behind the glass, the tacked, faded snapshot of Joe,
a warrior who lost the fight yet won the battle,
and inspired a family to build this in his memory.
The cone is gone, there is still sun in the sky,
this warm afternoon will go, Joe’s too – with the first snow.
A hundred miles to the home you want to get to;
rum, coconut, a memory of this summer kind of place.

Thanks Unilocal this place is great ! Super close to the loves truck stop so we could walk there, and the ice cream was great. They have hard and soft ice cream in tons of flavors not to mention Sundays, shakes and anything else u can think of. I had the canoli Icecream in a hot fudge Sunday. Yum ! We paid $ 10 for 2 Sundays and a treat for our doggy, so pretty average for prices. Will be back if in the area again

On the way to visit family in Rochester, we randomly had a craving for ice cream. Thanks to Unilocal,found this gem, and I must say its absolutely delicious! Family owned ice cream stand that boasts 24+ flavors of soft serve ice cream, so what is there not to love?! The answer: nothing. The hard ice cream was just as good, the service friendly. Even it it’s a bit out of your way, just take the time to go and thank me later.

Awesome for ice cream!
The prices were competitive and who wouldn’t love a place that carries 24 different flavors of softserve and can blend your own custom mix for you? Very cool! (I suggest blending the raspberry and cheese cake flavored soft serve)
Not much parking, but it’s worth it to make the trip there. Despite there being a line of folks, my boyfriend and I didn’t wait long. They are very efficient.
And they are pet friendly! A few folks brought dogs and were able to get them a doggie treat sundae!
Make sure you bring cash (I don’t believe they are credit card friendly).

Woooohoooo — This is one of those places in the middle of America that gets tremendously crowded because of a delicious niche item they’ve stumbled upon.
They have this great ice cream machine, here’s how it works:
–There are 24 flavors to choose from,
–You pick out any combination of flavors you want,
–They create a soft serve cone in the back using the flavors you picked in a base of vanilla mixed with those types of syrup.
I had banana coconut, my friend had rum cheesecake. If there are 24 flavors to choose from, how many combinations are there? I did take linear algebra, is the answer 24!? The owners were really happy to tell us of all the combinations people have had. I wonder if anybody’s asked for ‘alluvem.’
