The Dari Company

BBQ Pulled Pork, cheesy fries and an Oreo+cookie dough Iceburg. Definitely worth the wait and the calories.
Brats, burgers, footlongs are all great.
Want the ultimate Sundae? Try the Dari Supreme.
Enjoy chatting with others while your treat is being prepared.

Easily the best thing about Hebron. Small town ice cream stand that also serves food. Prices are great and portions generous.
You expect to see Norman Rockwell around the corner painting a picture of the place.

My favorite place for sandwiches, served fresh, delicious burgers, sundaes of all kinds, the Boston a shake with a sundae on top. All a very friendly, polite staff. My life saver when I’m too tired to cook.

Growing up in neighboring Lake Geneva, WI, the Dari is the only place to get ice cream in town. No, not literally, but why get a stomach ache from Coldstone if you can get a classic dipped soft serve cone from Hebron?
My family has been coming to this ice cream parlor weekly (in the summer, only) since I was a kid. They serve actual food like hot dogs, burgers, and fries, but we tended to stick to their chocolate-​dipped cones. If we made dessert that night, we would pick up a pint of their vanilla and bring it home with us.
A great feature from the Dari is their dog-​friendly atmosphere. We used to bring my dog to get a cone with us, and they would put a treat on the top of hers to give it that extra touch. This place is family owned and operated, and you can tell by the warm welcome you receive every time you go.
True, my relationship with this place has made me grow biased, but you can’t fight the power of hole-​in-​the-​wall ice cream shops no matter where you are. These kinds of places are the best. If you’re ever passing through Hebron, IL, during the summer months, stop by.

Good food fast! Highlight of living in Hebron! Super friendly family owned tradition

Been going here since I was little. They have great ice cream and food. Don’t recall ever having a bad meal!

Cheese fries and milkshakes are both top notch. I totally recommend the banana milkshake or the pumpkin milkshake! Great prices, but they only take cash, so be prepared!

My husband and I went to a graduation party in Lake Geneva last weekend and we hadn’t eaten anything all day. We knew there would be food at the party but it was late afternoon, the sun was hot, and we were starving. Ice cream sounded amazing. My husband asked if I wanted a Frosty from Wendy’s while we were in Woodstock and I said, «No! I want real ice cream from a real small-​town ice cream place.» We drove on.
We approached the small town of Hebron, stopped at an intersection, glanced over and saw this wonderfully delightful small-​town ice cream place with a dozen bikers parked in front. Small town + ice cream + bikers = Score! We did a u-​turn, parked nearby, and got in line to order (and then ran back to the car to get my wallet since it was cash only). The Dari has a lot of options: burgers, hot dogs, drinks, fried foods, and dairy treats. They even have black bean burgers! Very cool. I had a cherry-​dipped vanilla ice cream cone and my husband opted for a chocolate milkshake. The prices are great, the quantities are generous, the treats are yummy, and the camaraderie among everyone was very pleasant. I’m so glad we stopped here — we’ll come back if we head this way again.
After the party was over, we passed this place while driving home and noticed an even bigger line of adults and kids outside the lit-​up ice cream place. Very cool. Good to know that a place like this is thriving in a town that seems otherwise abandoned.

Despite passing it a lot, we finally stopped yesterday. FANTASTIC malts and my hubby is a malt afficionado. Best soft-​serve icecream anywhere! This is truly a classic ice cream stand. Patronize them often, as I never want them to go out of business! I know we will! Oh, and great prices!!!

Best soft-​serve in the area. You won’t be disappointed.

Great summer place to eat.
