I went to dandylion tonight (may) and I have not been there for years I always loved going and the soft serve was always great. They used to have soft serve yogurt too, i have to check on that for later. Tonight was a great night to go get an ice cream I got a soft serve vanilla in a cup with crunch coat I would have given this rating a 5 stars but the crunch Coat was absolutely stale and rock hard it was inedible. The crunch had literally turned rock hard and absolutely impossible to eat. (Stale?) ILL STICK TO JIMMIES IF I GO BACK.(* I wish companies gave out coupons or something when someone gives a review.)
Super legit, especially if you hit it during a lull in the line out the front. Even so, fast service, fantastic ice cream. A million options, just make sure you have cash. (Although that may have changed.)
Walked away feeling akward, walked up by myself. (I have given this place lots of my money for the past 20 plus years) ordered a ice cream cone. He makes my ice cream cone, I proceed to hand him my card ( keep in mind this is a almost $5 small ice cream cone, very expensive) he asked me if I have cash I tell him no. Tells me theres a $10 minimum asks me if I want to buy a quart, Id be more than glad to buy a quart but Im heading back to work, outside. He throws my ice cream in the trash and says well sorry then. I couldnt believe it! Will never go back again. I really ever even have cash, theyve been telling us because of Corona not to even carry cash, and handle cash, they also have no ATM machine and I could tell that he could have just swept my card if he wanted to
Favorite place for ice cream such great flavors both soft and hard serve! It is cash only if your order is below $10
They had strawberry and coconut soft serve ice cream. I repeat, strawberry and coconut soft serve. You can get the flavors independently or together as a twist. I got the twist and it was probably the beat soft serve ice cream I have had. If you are near this place slam on the brakes or make a u turn and treat yourself to some truly delicious ice cream!
PB-Oreo is the best Ice cream in the world. Everybody is just so friendly and they appreciate when you leave a tip which is, appreciated by me. It’s nice to be greeted with a smile and again the service is fast and friendly. Did I mention how awesome the peanut butter Oreo ice cream is?
Best soft-serve ice cream around. Cones and sundaes are huge. The staff is friendly and the service is fast.
We popped in today for some soft serve ice cream to cool down on this beautiful 90 degree day. The serving size on the waffle cone was 😘🤌🏼. Quart of moose tracks for later. This place is the spot for ice cream! Highly recommend.
Eh ice cream was fine, low ratings because of atmosphere, if you like hot cars giving off heat, burning your legs while you wait and the smell of exhaust, this is your spot. It just doesnt feel like your at an ice cream spot. I wish they would spend some focus on the picnic area. Probably wont be back, I wanted to like this spot because my kids are always asking to stop, Ill keep driving.
This is THE best ice cream. It was a chilly April 1st but its not too chilly for great ice cream😁 this is a large soft serve mix sundae with strawberries, pineapple, bananas topped with whipped cream and a cherry. Sort of like a small banana split. My mother loved coming here we have been coming here for years. Sadly she passed in 2012. Each time I come here I feel a little part of her with me. ❤
Wow! This place was amazing, the staff was friendly and the ice cream was great. If we are ever in town again we will surely be back. :)
A local gem! Great prices, generous servings, and the pumpkin soft serve is to die for.
Wow, waffle cone - be ready to eat a lot of ice cream! Great Kids on the service line, polite and fun.
Fast service. Good ice cream
I grew up on dandis… i remember going here with my parents when i was a little little kid every friday and saturday night! … im now in my 20s and its STILL the BEST spot to enjoy a fresh ice cream! They have Richardsons ice cream baby!! Yum!
Loved this place since I first time I tasted there ice cream 1973 is when we moved to reading.
Fast, friendly service with delicious ice cream.
Quick service great value for the $$strongly recommended
Great service, icecream and prices!!
Great selection hard & soft serve good prices + they accommodated my little ones nut allergy, opened a new gallon etc.
Very good ice cream. I am from Pennsylvania.
Great selection of ice cream friendly service great price highly recommend
Great ice cream and fast service
Love their javaberry soft-serve.
Great friendly service! Nice selection of hard and soft serve ice cream. Choc chip cookie sandwich personal favorite!! Incredible banana split serves 2. Prices very reasonable. Thank you for practicing social distancing.
Love Dandi-Lyons! So many choices and big portions even for smalls. I also like that you can use your credit card now on all purchases over $10. There are some picnic tables in the shade to enjoy your ice cream, too.
Great prices, portions, and staff
Good ice cream
Soft serve in many flavors.
Love this place. I like their ice cream flavor choices. Lines are very reasonable and moves fast unlike other ice cream places in the area. Like their business operation times as well, good for going for a nice treat after dinner. Prices are very reasonable compared to other ice cream places in the area as well. This is my favorite ice cream place.
Good ice cream
Had the strawberry coconut
Delicious! Tins of choices. Line moves along really fast.
Best soft serve ice cream there is. Its always fresh and rich. The people that work there are always happy and polite. Great spot to bring the kids. And the prices are perfect.
This place is the best ice cream around. Has the reliable flavors and fan favorites but also has soft serve flavors you dont see everywhere. Great staff and top notch service. Recommend highly!
Love this place! The ice cream is really creamy, they have a whole lot of flavors and other foods that also taste nice, and the service is really good. The wait can sometimes last up to twenty to thirty minutes due to there only being one window, but even when the wait is this long, it is worth it. If you like ice cream, youll like Dandi-Lyons, no doubt about it.
Great ice cream, great prices. They only take cash or check. When I had neither today, they handed me my receipt and told me to bring the money next time. How much better does it get?!
Great selections of ice cream and frozen yogurt, reasonable sized portions, fair prices, and friendly servers.Sitting down at their tables can be challenging with all the mosquitos. It would be nice if they sprayed the sitting area.
Good ice cream and friendly staff.
I have been going here forever! I love this place & all the staff here work endless hours for everyone to enjoy all the delicious ice cream they serve. Can’t wait until they open again in the summer!
Very good
Great ice cream. Generous portions! Excellent service!
Great variety of flavors. Big portions
Always really good ice cream.
In the summer, this place is your typical ice cream stand with great soft-serve and traditional ice creams. There are sundaes, shakes, frappes, no-sugar added ice cream and Italian ice. Take your treat over to the picnic tables and strike up a conversation with a local. Parking is sometimes challenging on a hot summer night, but the product is good.In the winter, the ice cream is gone and you can buy wreaths, Christmas trees and other seasonal offerings.
Good ice cream and super fast and friendly service! They have Richardsons hard ice cream (almost all of the flavors, including the seasonal ones) plus six flavors of soft serve and three twists of two flavors. The line looked a bit long at first but it moved very quickly. Its cash only but the staff were very nice and let us pay later when I realized that my wife had taken all the cash from my wallet for the kids lunches. I also like that they actually have three different sizes with reasonable prices. Many other ice cream places have inflated their sizes and prices so that the Kiddie size is more ice cream than I want and costs almost five dollars. Not Dandi-Lyons, they have good sizes and fair prices! Definitely recommended!
Best ice cream in the area with the best prices and good quantity
Great fried foods n ice cream buy coupon on line save 25%
We love Dandi-Lyons! The ice cream is delicious, the staff is helpful and friendly, and we usually run into people we know. Its a great local business!
Hurray! A great place to go during a pandemic.
Great local ice cream shop. Lots of flavors and toppings. Wish it was open later!
Poor quality ice cream that would overpriced even if it was free. Much better options readily available nearby. I gave them a second chance (anyone can have an off day), and that experience was even worse than the first. Wont be going back.
Cute outside ice cream place, only cash. I love the waffle cones and the reeses cup ice cream. The snickers one is also amazing!
Nice people lots of choices good prices
Good old Dandi-Lyons. Roses on Valentines Day - ✓, Xmas Tree @ Xmas - ✓, Ice Cream All Summer Long - ✓ = Priceless. Goad
This is a favorite local ice creamery, in Reading, MA, to get your favorite ice cream cone. Fast, friendly and affordable. Order at the walk-up window. PAY WITH CASH ONLY. You can sit at the outdoor picnic tables.
Delicious
Great soft serve with all kinds of flavors!!
I’ve been looking for soft serve ice cream for a looong time and so glad I found this place!! Not only they have great flavors but their prices are pretty cheap. I tried the waffle cone and it was so goood! This is definitely gonna be my favorite ice cream shop.
I love Dandilyons I eat there almost every week. Dandilyons is simply delicious. I’ve never had such good ice cream in my life. You will see people buying there ice cream rain or shine. I just love Dandilyons and if you haven’t been I totally recommend you go!
Good and fast
Great Ice cream at Dandi-Lyons in the summer and wonderful Christmas tree selection in the winter.
They have everything
Dandi-Lyons has a great selection of ice cream, Im a soft serve fan myself, and was delighted to see many different flavors, vanilla, chocolate, blueberry, black raspberry, strawberry, to name a few!!
Love coming here with the family. Great Ice cream choices & price is good.
Always great. Real good ice cream and toppings. The only complaint is my belt doesnt fit anymore.
They need to have more blueberry on hand..but otherwise great place...

This ice cream is good and delicious
Cash only, but decent selection of flavors and good sizes
The line was a bit long, but the staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the soft serve ice cream was both affordable and quite delicious. It seems to be a popular place, but its a deserved reputation.
Love the soft serve here.
