My kids love this place and it does not break the bank to go there. The banana split is good, the brownie sundae is great.

I came here with my 2-​year-​old niece and we loved the ice cream! It truly is a little Train Depot building and is located on a hill on Rogers Road. You can either walk up to the window and order or go through the drive-​thru window. The attendants were dressed with train-​themed hats and were really friendly. We got the Train Wreck which is the custard with candy bars and flavors mixed in. There are many flavors to choose from and I had the Almond Delight. The portions are very generous and a small was like a large. My niece had a kid’s size strawberry and she loved it. I actually found the Dairy Deport in my Citypass book and like unique parlors that are not necessarily chains. They also service milkshakes and custard dipped with chocolate. There are some tables outside and it was a nice place to stop by for ice cream with the family. Choo-​choo for yummy ice cream in Wake Forest!

Awesome spot for soft serve ice cream. Some creative and fun sundaes and «trainwrecks» (i.e. Blizzards or Carolina Concretes). Tons of flavors and dips which are kind of hard to find. Nice range of sizes as well, but if you actually want a small get a kiddie size. Favorites are Monkey Sundae (monkey bread with cinnamon bun ice cream and caramel), Cookie Sundae (chocolate chip cookie and crumbles), S’mores trainwreck, and a good old fashioned chocolate dipped vanilla waffle cone. They always have chocolate dip and then a weekly flavor.

Very yummy local ice cream place. We always get train wrecks — the red velvet is my favorite.
Tonight I switched it up and got an apple cider chiller — so good. My only criticism is they have gotten pricey. A small chiller and a small peanut butter milkshake came to $ 7.58! Yikes.

Love this place! Plenty of flavors and variety. The price is excellent, not ridiculously overpriced like so many other ice cream parlors. I love getting the cake cone with a small espresso or vanilla dipped in chocolate! It’s like $ 2.50? Perfect amount for after dinner! Highly recommend:)

My coworkers and I drove all the way out to Wake Forest to try this place because we saw that they had Dole Whip. It’s pretty darn close if not exactly like the one served at the Disney theme parks (minus the candy eyes). That alone was worth the drive.
We also tried the red velvet train wreck, peanut butter cup train wreck, and peanut butter soft serve. The peanut butter was on the light side and some felt it didn’t have enough peanut butter taste to it. I personally preferred the peanut butter cup train wreck.
The banana splits that other people were ordering also looked amazing and I’ll have to make another trip out to this place.
Overall, the quality was high and no one was disappointed about making the drive out check out this place.

Absolutely addicted to this place! I have tried more than I like to admit of their ice cream creations. Krispy Kreme sundae… that’s all you really need to say! The turtle sundae is a family favorite along with a multitude of their train wrecks (ice cream blended with any combination of flavors/​toppings you can possibly come up with). My personal favorite: peanut butter train wreck with peanut butter cups… heaven! They also make a perfect lemonade slushie. The place is always clean with top notch customer service, high quality products, inexpensive, large portions, family oriented… they even give out «pup cups». I live in Raleigh but travel to Wake Forest at least once a week specifically for Dairy Depot creations… sooo worth it!

Delicious and creamy soft serve vanilla ice cream. They also have great train wrecks and Sundaes.

Delicious turtle sundae, ice cream and other ingredients all tasted fresh. I do think that having to pay additional money for a flavor other than chocolate or vanilla in my sundae was unacceptable, so I had chocolate. It’s almost five dollars for a sundae and that is plenty. Two things to point out were that there was only one employee working there and she was doing drive thru and walk up window, so by the time all four of us got our treats, two of us were almost finished. Also there were an over abundance of yellow jackets (bees) there, they were flying into our sundaes and this was unpleasant. Perhaps the depot can do something about this as all of their seating is outdoors.

Chocolate malts are amazing. The pineapple Dole Whip is so good! I’ve tried several flavors of ice cream and I’ve never been disappointed. My favorite ice cream place. My girlfriend and I end up here at least once a week.

I love this place! My boyfriend I go here all the time. Everything tastes amazing and you really can’t beat the prices. This is definitely one of our favorite after dinner spots. The puppy cups are great! It’s so wonderful to go here, sit outside, and enjoy a nice dessert. I would definitely skip dessert at whatever restaurant you’re eating at and go here instead :)

I always get the Muddy Buddy Train Wreck whenever I go. With the chocolate ice cream, its so smooth and so good! The lines could be a bit long, but its well worth the wait and the kids who work there are always SO polite and nice. Definitely worth going often!

So happy we stumbled on this place. They have your traditional soft ice cream but they can mix about 50 other varieties as well. Their ice cream is great, service always wonderful and lines always long so be prepared to wait. Prices are outstanding for soft ice cream, 1.75 for small, $ 2 for medium and $ 2.25 for a large and portions are large. Train wrecks are like blizzards only much, much larger. Stop by and you won’t be disappointed!

My favorite ice cream place in the area. The train wrecks are delicious and the specialty sundaes are BIG. I love the monkey bread sundae, which in itself is an entire meal. I have tried many of the train wrecks and none have been a disappointment. Recently they have added the nutella cone and if you like nutella, this is the cone for you. Nutella, with caramel, vanilla ice cream and topped with whipped cream in a waffle cone. The prices are very good and no other place in the area can match it. If you are hungry for ice cream, this is the place to visit.

Puppy Cups! Puppy Cups! The Dairy Depot offered my yorkie a puppy cup when we went through the drive thru! How awesome is that? Now as soon as we pull up, she fights to get out of her seat because she has absolutely no shame in begging for her puppy cup!
I like this joint. I won’t say the ice cream is out of this world but it is tasty. I take my kids and my puppy here for an occassional weekend treat from time to time and they love the cake batter and cookies n cream.

Soft Serve Ice Cream Chocolate, Vanilla or Chocolate-​Vanilla Swirl with an option to blend in some cool sounding flavors
Great Staff! The two ladies working here were very pleasant and helpful explaining the concept and flavors!
My Bride got Pistachio and I got a Non-​blended Chocolate, Dipped in Chocolate! Flavors were ok, NOT A-​OK just ok! Usually I’m a BIG fan of the Dipped Ice Cream though I’m used to a Thicker Shell, so I was a little disappointed there too!

The ice cream here was terrific! I didn’t think it was over the top GREAT, but it was certainly terrific! I’ve been looking for a roadside stand like this since I moved to NC 6+ years ago, and I think I’ve finally found it. Back in NY and NoVA, we had roadside stands like this all over the place, so FINALLY, I can say I’ve found one in NC. The pumpkin Pie Train wreck was pretty good!
My only complaint — closing on a holiday like Labor Day — it took a second trip out here to actually get to enjoy it. Retail/​Restaurants just don’t close on Labor day where I’m from, it’s always one of the busiest days for this type of business.

I better write this review before fall turns to winter and The Dairy Depot’s seasonal offering, the Pumpkin Pie Train Wreck, goes away. Go get one now!
It’s AMAZING. And a small is HUGE; I couldn’t finish it (for perspective, a Mini Blizzard at DQ is more than enough for me). But what I did eat, I ate FAST because I wanted to stuff as much of it into my face as possible lest it all be a dream from which I wake up at any moment.
The DD has a walk-​up window, drive-​up window and outdoor seating. It was cold, so ate in the car in their parking lot.
