Is there anything better than ice cream on a hot summer night?

Here are some of my favorite NS places for cool treats!

Glenview Dairy Bar | Glenview
This is a family owned and operated spot has been serving ice cream treats to the NS since 1955. Just remember they are cash only.

Graeter’s | Winnetka & Northbrook
Known for their Buckeye Blitz and Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip, you can’t go wrong with a trip to Graeter’s on a hot summer night!

Sweet’s | Lake Forest
An amazing old fashioned chocolate and ice cream store serving LF for 40 years.

Homer’s | Wilmette
Another NS institution with the best ice cream. The peach flavor is a seasonal fan favorite, but I am always partial to chocolate chip cookie dough.

Who doesn’t love a DQ blizzard or chocolate dipped cone?

Hooyahs | Lake Bluff
Located inside of the Great Lakes Metra train station, this family owned shop is known for their take on ice cream nachos and fun waffle creations!
