We came for ice cream and that's exactly what we got. Wish the peanuts on the ice cream Sunday were a bit fresher but aside from that...ice cream was great. The best one was the orange sherbet. Service was 10/10. Location: such a cute spot. Plenty of inside and outside seating.
Had a banana shake, it was excellent. Nice roadside kind of spot with outdoor seating. Fun stop. Worth a visit for desert on a hot day.
Friendly service. When my companion and I walked in we were greeted with a smile and asked if we wanted to sample anything. You've heard the phrase go big or go home? That doesn't apply here. A single scoop of is huge! There is plenty of covered (awning) outdoor seating and also indoor seating.
Don't know nuthin' about Delsa's mothership parlour on Ustick but when I visited for the first time today Delsa's ice cream stand in the parking lot next to Meridian located Wagner Farm stand barn, the nice young woman scooping up the YUMMY huckleberry ice cream said ice creams sold there are made at this Ustick location. So there you go. And here is my Yelp review - and photo of the Delsa ice cream stand - https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/delsas-ice-cream-parlour-boise?select=d0oHeaRIUMTAHQIXJ4teFg - because the Meridian stand doesn't have a Yelp page. Makes sense it would not given the stand is open only during months when Wagner's Farm barn is open and then only Wed - Sun from noon to 8p. And although I am a skeptic of national news periodicals that produce "best of eats lists", such as the USA Today list that apparently named Delsa's one of the best ice cream parlours in the United States, while I can't attest to the Ustick located parlour, I can say their ice cream as enjoyed from the stand at Wagner's barn retail lot is dee-lucious. This stand had at least a couple of dozen ice creams available to have scooped into cup or cone and also makes milkshakes it seems. The husband of the farm stand helper was raving about his lemon custard selection. I felt similarly enthusiastic for the huckleberry. A big drawback of this location is the ice cream stand is surrounded by deep, big scale gravel. Which means people with mobility disabilities - and that includes me as I have MS - cannot get across the gravel to get to the stand. That is not the responsibility of Delsa's to fix, but of the Wagner folks. This Farm Barn is a retail sales operation and they are required to have firm, stable and slip resistant surface for so all people can have equal access. That isn't an issue for the working part of the farm. It is an issue of code and law compliance for a retail sales location like this. BTW, parents with strollers will have the same difficulty as people with mobility limits. Fortunately, I had a "go fetch" helper in the form of my hubby to pick up the ice cream for me. I shared it with him as a reward. Next time he says he wants his own and he's not even an ice cream eater most of the time. It was that good.
Saturday (7/6/24) was the first time I took my girlfriend here for ice cream. The whole place and style of it was pretty cool like a 50s diner which we liked. Then we sampled some of the ice cream flavors, not bad of selection. We ordered a sample plate of the ice cream and it was good yet the flavor was subtle. We came back the next day for lunch and we'll it was weird the service that was provide from the girls, we came in and we got stared at by the girls working and one of them was rude to me didn't understand why. But overall food was good!
