"Libs Dairy Treat is that classic spot you dream about on a hot day. Their soft serve is insanely good super creamy, perfectly swirled, and just the right amount of sweet. Whether you’re going classic vanilla, chocolate, or one of their twist flavors, you really can’t go wrong. The portions are generous, prices are super reasonable, and the whole vibe is nostalgic in the best way. Fast, friendly service too even when the line’s out the door (which it often is, for good reason). If you’re anywhere near, Libs is a must-stop. Simple, sweet, and always hits the spot."

"I have lived in the North Deering neighborhood since 62. I moved away for quite a while and am back in my childhood home. Could you tell me what year it changed from Dairy Queen to Libs and if the same family owns Libs? It is delicious and I stop frequently...maybe too frequently. LOL I would appreciate a response as to when it changed to Libs. Thank you in advance!"

"Lib’s is a longtime favorite and it’s easy to see why! There are hard and soft serve ice cream options, and also special treats. I’d recommend getting an Arctic Blast. They do prefer you pay in cash, but card or Venmo is also accepted. I’d check at the counter."

"The staff was friendly and helpful! Our kiddos loved their ice cream- soft serve strawberry and salted caramel. The only small complaint I have was that my french vanilla ice cream had a hint of mint to it-- not sure if it was from the scoop or just a factor of being in the same case. Consistency was good and flavor was good otherwise!"
