Antoinette's Sweets Inc. — Restaurant in Town of Lancaster

This place is absolutely phenomenal! We heard about this place from a friend and they suggested it for people with a sweet tooth.

We decided to sit down for ice cream after briefing the shop. There are so many options to pick from, all handcrafted, and equally as delicious. I chose the "Cara-Mallow" sundae. I'd highly recommend it if you like butterscotch and caramel. I did not get any pictures of that because I devoured it to quickly and did not want to show a half-eaten bowl. Each sundae looks amazing, presentation is excellent. We got the strawberry ice cream soda to share. (pictured) It tasted great and had some fresh-tasting, frozen strawberries.

After that, we sampled some chocolate, and ended up purchasing quite a bit. The staff are very friendly and quick to offer samples and suggestions. If you're headed to or from Niagara falls, or are just in the area, definitely stop at...

My mom used to take me to Antoinette’s all the time as a kid for ice cream and my grandfather used to get me chocolate hearts for Valentine’s Day. I live in NJ now, but I went home to visit and took my husband with me and brought him in to Antoinette’s as a part of a nostalgia tour I took him on.

He picked out a box of orange milk chocolate animal minis. My husband is not a sweet tooth by any means, but he LOVED these chocolates. We brought them home and every morning he would have exactly one piece with his coffee.

As they started to run low, I went to the website and was delighted to find that Antoinette’s ships (at a reasonable $12 rate for two day shipping). I ordered him another box and they arrived two days later, cold packed securely and not at all melted even in the middle of summer.

I’ll be ordering from here again and am excited to be able to have Antoinette’s in my life...

Took my son to Antoinette’s Sweets, and it was such a nostalgic treat! This old-school soda fountain has been a community staple since the early 1900s, and walking in brought back so many memories. The interior still has the classic soda fountain counter and wooden benches, so charming.

We tried a couple of ice creams to help my son choose, and they were phenomenal, I even remembered the taste from my childhood! They also offer chocolates, truffles, and fun touches like stuffed animals, which added to the charm. I had a milkshake (next time I’m getting a float!), and my son was completely mesmerized by his ice cream…so good he barely talked!

It’s wonderful to see a long-standing business like this thriving, and we can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a classic, delicious ice cream experience with a little history...
