Ehrler's Ice Cream — Restaurant in Louisville

It's Labor Day and we just spent 3 hours at the Louisville Zoo and 90° weather. We got in the car and thought "Man, ice cream sounds great!"

A quick Google search lead us to Ehlers. We haven't been to this location before and it was right on our way home, so it was an easy choice.

This Ehlers location is kinda small, but comfy small. There are 4 or 5 tables and some tall chairs at a counter that look outside. I get the feeling this location is relatively new, and it's very welcoming and makes you think "ice cream!". It's also very nicely air conditioned inside....WHEW!

At the counter, they have 9 "Always Flavors" Vanilla Chocolate Strawberry Orange Sherbet Cookies n' Cream Cookie Dough Mint Chocolate Chip Butter Pecan Bourbon Pecan Fudge

Then there are 3 limited time flavors. I've had Strawberry Ice Cream on my mind, quite literally, all do, so mine was an easy choice. My wife always goes for the Mint Chocolate chip.

The nice young lady took our time to offer suggestions and let me try the Bourbon Pecan Fudge (That stuff is amazeballs!). She then turned around and got our scoops for us. She was very friendly and helpful.

The ice cream was Most Excellent, and exactly what I needed after a long, hot, sweaty trip to the Zoo.

This was a great first visit and I'm kinda bummed that it's so far from home. At least can visit when we...

Although this is a classic louisvillian establishment, you could say I was extremely disappointed and distraught at my local Ehrlers experience. I had been a few other times once when it first opened. It had been an odd texture on one other account but I thought nothing of it. The prices are great and the ice cream usually is too. But to my demise when I ordered a regular sized cone of mint chocolate chip my taste buds where not happy. The ice cream had an odd grainy feel and left me with a stomach ache. I love Ehrler’s and this experience was...

This place was dead to me for decades cause it no longer existed.Now it’s dead to me again.The owners must be on crack like they once were when they sold it.The employees are rude and don’t want to be bothered and the prices are through the roof.$8 for a milkshake you get maybe four of five slurps out of .Can go to Graeters and get one three times the size for about $9 and far better ,not that runny chocolate milk.Go to Dairy Castle.Dairy Castle is more like Ehlers than Ehlers.If only was a UDF...
