Graham's Ice Cream: The Best Food In Geneva (Chicago-Area Ice Cream Parlor Review 3)

Recently, we decided to take a drive to Geneva, Illinois, an extremely quaint and lovely city on the Fox River. Unfortunately, every real restaurant in Geneva is, in our view, mediocre at best. So, after having had yet another disappointing dinner, we decided rather than compounding the error by having dessert, we would review an ice cream parlor. So we went to Graham's, which is right in the heart of the historic shopping area.

Graham's is located in a wonderful old building. When entering, you first see rows and rows of interesting chocolates. But the ice cream is clearly the main attraction here. Lisa had one scoop of chocolate brownie ice cream and another scoop of raspberry chip. Lisa thought the ice cream was very good, but was expecting the raspberry to also include chocolate chips instead of the raspberry chips that she got. Steve had a vanilla malt which was really thick and tasty, just like he likes it. Both Steve and Lisa thought the food here was far better than anyplace in Geneva (admittedly not saying much).

While we are not particularly into decor, the building and inside were very picturesque and the outside seating area was a wonderful place to sit and enjoy ice cream. All in all, the experience was quite nice (at least until Steve's car wouldn't start, but that's another story).

Graham's did not have a public rest room, so we can't rate that. But our food rating for Graham's Ice Cream, 302 South Third Street, Geneva, Illinois is 7.5 of 10 ice cream scoops. If you are in Geneva, our advice is skip the regular restaurants and go straight to Graham's.
