Great ice cream but the worst service ever. The staff is not motivated, most of them are rude. I live very close to this location and frequent this place. After my husband’s last visit we decided we will no longer go there. We and all customers deserve a better treatment. The manager is the worst, her name is Estela and she is beyond rude. Every encounter with her we feel scolded for no reason. We are paying customers that visit the establishment at least once a week. Her behavior is terrible and no wonder the other staff members have poor customer service.
I would suggest you go to a different location or purchase ice cram elsewhere. The service is so bad, the ice cream is not worth the bad treatment you receive.

Oberweis ice cream is second to none in Chicagoland. The chocolate milk is like crack and a half gallon will not last in my home for 12 hours.
This visit I had the peanut butter chocolate sundae. As always it was delicious. If there is a complaint to be had the ambient 80’s music was too loud and the service is a tad slow.

Browsing in the area and searched for a frozen yogurt place. Although it wasn’t the self serve I was looking for they do serve soft served frozen yogurt so I stayed and added my favorite candy, M&Ms. Yogurt was great and they didn’t short me on the candy. :) The greeting when I entered and nice service was inviting and nice also.
Nice family fun place.

The staff is incredibly nice here, especially with the little ones. I ordered a one scoop cookies n cream on a waffle cone. So creamy and tasty! I shared this with my two kids and realized I needed to order another serving as we finished ours so quickly!
Yes, we devoured both! ;)

I love you like a fat kid loves Oberweis.
Yeah that’s my new line.
Seriously, what’s better than Oberweis ice cream? Anything you can think of that’s better can be mixed in to the cream and be that much more awesome.
I try to limit my visits to Oberweis as I enjoy fitting into my pants on most occasions, but when that first Chicago heat wave hits, I’ll unbutton the shorts for a malt or frostbite (my 2 favs).
The portions are MASSIVE. Honestly a family of 4 can sufficiently hit up a large malt. But no one will judge if you just got dumped and finish it all yourself.

Had to write another review for this location it’s that good. I ordered a couple of ice cream cones for the kids after a game. Of course, I dropped one 2 minutes after and was so upset. A manager actually witnessed it and she was so nice and gave me a new one. Excellent customer service

Atendimento excelente !
Milkshake perfeito, sente o gosto do fundo do leite, bem cremoso !
A última vez que eu e meus amigos fomos, estava lotado de clientes. Uma amiga pediu o tradicional Milkshake de chocolate e veio um pouco derretido e o chantilly e o biscoito estava um pouco caído e feio devido o derretimento, a gerente do local veio até a nossa mesa perguntar se estava tudo bem, minha amiga lhe respondeu dizendo que sim, tudo maravilhoso como sempre, mas disse que dessa vez por estar cheio acreditava que o sorvete dela veio um pouco descuidado, mas que não tinha problema, depois de alguns minutos a gerente voltou com o valor do Milkshake a minha amiga e com um brinde de outro sorvete, dizendo que gostaria que ela aceitasse como pedido de desculpas pelo sorvete dela não ter saído como todos os outros dias, achei isso incrível, no Brasil isso nunca aconteceria ! Adorei mais ainda o local !

I went here with the family recently on a weekday afternoon. Despite there only being 2 other customers in the place, the entire dining area was a disgusting mess. Of the 12 or so tables at this location, only 2 were clean. And by «clean» I mean «didn’t have previous customer’s dishes on them»
We went through quite a discussion of what the difference between a shake and a malt is. And we eventually got the malt that we paid for. but what was bizarre was that the manager there at the time was just standing there … doing nothing. How could she look over those filthy tables and not do something?
I’ll probably pass on this place in the future.

One of my fave ice cream places but I have to say this oak park location did not meet my expectations. Lets start of by the non-​chalant staff working there. I literally was waiting at the register until someone helped us. Mind you there was an employee making waffle cones looking directly at us did not say a word to us or even try and call someone to take our order. Placed our order and sat down to dirty tables, covered in fudge and ice cream smears, yeah gross! Over all icecream is great but cleanliness and staff need much improvement. 3 stars for the ice cream much more than service.

The ice cream was so good, they should have sent a poet. Instead, they sent a crappy Unilocaler who gives sarcastic, one sentence reviews to sophisticated restaurants and 12 volume reviews to dive restaurants. I got a scoop of apple pie and a scoop birthday cake in a waffle cone. When they scoop ice cream, they give you a proper scoop. That means, they do the full once through and then a half scoop for the crappy hypothetical empty space that may be inside of the ice cream roll. My ice cream was delicious. There were pieces of pie crust in my apple pie and pieces of cake in the birthday cake. I got my wife two scoops of vanilla because she wanted to wait in the car. It was delicious as well. In fact, she said it was the best ice cream she ever had. I’m banking on top 5, which is pretty good since I’ve been in many corners of the world.

Not only do I love this shop, I love the location where it is. I’m big fan of the Oak Park area. But I feel anytime I visit Oak Park I will be visiting this shop and sampling their delicious flavors of ice cream. This was my first time at this location and it won’t be the last. I would definitely recommend them to my friends and family.

So the ice cream is good– no debate there. The employees… Wow. Last night we ordered four scoops of ice cream. Only ONE was correct. The time before that we ordered a peanut butter Sunday… and they asked what we wanted on it. I had to read them the description from the sign. They definitely leave something to be desired.

I love the ice cream here. The staff is very friendly. I loved the fact that the lady who took our order was awesome comuniating with my 6yo son. I didn’t even have to say a thing. I miss their hot pies with ice cream oders. They where amazing! And my son loves playing chess! Definitely recommend this place.

The ice cream is great, and I’ve picked up a few bottles of milk from them on the way home (just steps from the Oak Park Green line stop, which is quite nice).
You’re definitely paying a premium, but I consider this stuff top-​of-​the-​line. The service on the other hand, not as much. The staff has no sense of urgency, the line is ALWAYS long when I come in and painfully slow to get through. They are polite enough, but there’s no hustle whatsoever. Come for the ice cream, stay for the fact that you have to wait for an awful long time to get to the counter.

Well, this will be my new local Oberweis store and overall, it seems pretty good. Downside is that it’s metered parking in Oak Park — certainly not the fault of the store though. At some point in the evening the pay for parking goes away — that’s when I went here, much to my relief as I seldom carry change.
Store was busy but most had already been served. I went to buy a quart to-​go — the person in front of me was buying a few. In and out fairly quickly though and the ice cream is always fantastic.
I’ll be back — hopefully they will keep Peppermint IC stocked after the holiday season.

Parking is hard to find during most of the day and you have to pay coins at the meter. The location is easy to find and there are a few tables to sit at if you’re in a small group. There are many options available but make sure you’re ready to spend a pretty penny for mediocre ice cream. I was told this was a «must see in Oak Park» but I was disappointed by the multitude of screaming kids, the less than average half-​melted ice cream and outrageous prices.

Pensive they sit, and roll their languid eyes…

I’ve gone in the past to Oberweis, but wasn’t ever particularly impressed enough to Unilocal about my experiences, but this time was different. I had a coupon because hubby and I had given blood again and he was at home grilling my fish so I went for ice cream — because he asked.
The store was relatively clean, the staff were pleasant and encouraging with their suggestions. I ended up getting a soft serve with chocolate sauce to off set a soft serve from McDonald’s some weeks before, (It had left a bad taste in my mouth that just wouldn’t go away!). This was in addition to getting hubby’s coffee ice cream — which was free — (Give blood get free ice cream — it’s all the rage now!: -)
Still it was overall a good experience this time — still pricey though, (so give blood).
