Reese's Dairy Bar

If you are craving something unique and different from the chain restaurants, Reese's Dairy Bar is just the place for you. Family owned since the 1973 season, the experienced, award-winning staff delivers a delicious full food menu from hot dogs and chicken skillet wraps to multiple variations of burgers. Plenty of side dishes are included too, from onion rings and red-skinned potato salad to chili-cheese nachos and steamed vegetables. [Please note: if you are in a hurry, always feel free to call ahead (315) 252-7323, and we will have your order ready for you when you arrive, either for dine-in or carry-out.]

But our signature treat is our HOMEMADE ice cream and desserts. All Hard Ice Cream, Sherbets, Italian Ices, French Custard, and Cremesicle Twist are MADE RIGHT IN OUR STORE from family recipes that have been tweaked and perfected aver the years and include only the finest ingredients. So indulge yourself in a cone, sundae, banana split, smoothie, slush, shake, freshly baked apple dumpling, rich fudge brownie sundae, strawberry shortcake, decadent turtle sundae, a huge list of flurries, ice cream sandwich/chipwich/ cremewich, an ice cream soda, sherbet cooler, or float. Take some ice cream home with you from our carryout freezer, where we offer our Homemade Ice Cream/Sherbet/Italian Ice in True 64 ounce Half Gallons. Ice Cream Cakes are HOMEMADE and can be ordered ahead or decorated on the spot. Ice Cream Sandwiches/Chipwiches/Cremewiches are available to go in six-packs. A pint or quart of any soft serve on tap can be made while you wait or can be ordered ahead for faster service. [Please note: if you are in a hurry, always feel free to call ahead (315) 252-7323, and your dessert order can be made ahead and packaged to go for your convenience.]

Try soft Frace', a fat-free/cholesterol-free/sugar-free soft serve that is a healthy heart choice and allows you to indulge with no guilt. (We also offer no-sugar-added Hard Ice Cream choices). For those in need of a non-dairy treat, our Homemade Italian Ices/Sorbets are completely dairy-free and lactose-free. So are our Slushes. Soft Dole Whip is lactose-free and vegan. Our soft vanilla, chocolate, and twist ice creams, and Hard Frozen Yogurts are gluten-free for those who need to watch for that ingredient, and gluten-fee cones are available upon request.

So have lunch, supper, or a snack, and then enjoy a dessert like no other in town. And don't hesitate to ask for information regarding groups, bus tours, or gift certificates. Reese's truly offers something for everyone, and our cheerful, efficient staff is always there to give excellent service.
