Dairy Delite - Lakeville

Visiting from Arizona and found this gem this summer and happy to see open in November.

Want a great treat on a great fall day….you have go to LAKEVILLE’S ONLY DAIRY DELIGHT…..open all fall and maybe winter

A local favorite for years, this charming walk up ice cream stand delivers delicious treats for fair prices. Open in the afternoon/evening in Spring, Summer, and Fall, it 's a popular downtown Lakeville meet up spot that 's great for families. In the last couple of years they 've streamlined their menu (almost all deserts now) and brought in hand scooped ice cream by The Chocolate Shoppe , which is fantastic stuff. They also serve soft serve in many forms, all of which are tasty. I 've sampled a number of their malts and shakes they 're a delicious nostalgic time warp to bygone days. Be prepared for some waiting the line leading to the single ordering window can stretch to the curb on hot summer nights. Then it can be another 5 10 minutes of waiting for them to fulfil the order, which you pick up at the opposite window. Mercifully, there are a number of picnic tables to sit at and there is a playset with swings and a slide that the littles just love. So, if you 're not in a hurry and are looking for a delicious home grown treat, you could do a lot worse than Dairy Delite.

It was a good place but the music playing loud outside had way too many F bombs and yelling about other things not kid friendly.

Great ice cream. Pretty affordable. Long waits because it's popular. They have a small play area for kids, which is nice so they can play while you wait
