Parlor City Ice Cream-Marion

I’ve yet to order any ice cream from them and be disappointed. Whether it’s their “Freeze” (mixer), slushies, “slush-whips,” or malts, it’s all been delicious in every different flavor I’ve tried. Out of their food, I can recommend their hotdogs and all of their sides/appetizers.

The lines often stretch back because of high demand, but they do a reasonably fast job with them.

Not every food item on the menu is an absolute winner, and they could add more items there that are of good quality, but you really can’t beat grabbing ice cream here.

I've come here plenty and the ice cream and the fries and everything are just amazing! I have a personal preference for anything mozzarella so their mozzarella sticks are the best thing for me! And they always adjust their indoor temperature for the weather! It was nice to walk into a nice warm ice cream parlor after an upsetting homecoming night in October you know?

I love parlor city's ice cream and their tenderloins too. Great service, staff is typically very friendly. Only thing I would change is there have been a handful of times that I waited in drive thru and they had gotten my ice cream ready and it had been waiting too and was melting when I got it. I go there often though and this has rarely happened. Check out the flavor of the day calendar on their website! Different locations have different flavors of the day fyi.

We love this place! It has the look and feel of an old time ice cream shop. They have lots of ice cream options and the food is good too. They have good service, even when the place is packed on a warm day. We enjoy both the inside and outside seating since this place is pretty small.

Two Thursdays ago following a track meet my 5 year old grandgirl and I stopped. A young man was so patient in allowing her to decide on her choices and verbalize them. Just the sweetest! The food was great and we enjoyed our outdoor picnic at their clean area outside!

Love this location. The ice cream is phenomenal as well as the service. I was helped by a lady named Asia today. Her attitude was great and her smile brightened up my mood. Definitely will be back!

I got a butterscotch malt and it was amazing! My 2 little granddaughters shared a smaller chocolate shake and the Parlor happily split it into 2 cups with lids and straws for them.....very hospitable! In summary: the service was great and the product was excellent. Try it!

It was an amazing ice cream shop. The decor was classic last century and the ice cream was delicious. I got a chocolate cake one that was absolutely amazing and my wife got a mint chocolate chip that was sublime. Highly recommend.

To Sherry Williama review. I was the girl behind you when you got "rotten" food. Only thing rotten was you and your child like tantrum! You didn't like it since chocolate was frozen... When you pulled it out of the freezer thing they have. Then you proceed to smash and rubbed the Ice cream all over the counter. Something my toddler didn't even do when upset. So your good want rotten you were and treated that staff so poorly! Side note my ice cream (cotton candy flavor burst) and breaded mushrooms were delicious! And staff even after they were just treated so poorly were so freaking friendly!! I will be back 11/10 will come back!!!!!!

Just a good old-fashioned ice cream parlor Ice cream is thick and cold so it doesn't run down your hand the minute you get it. Great place to take your kids. Really enjoy the jukebox.

Good icecream and hotdogs. The fries come unsalted but hey it's probably for the best health wise. Sadly, few places now a days offer that low sodium option to the customer. I only wished they asked if I wanted salt for my fries.

One of the best soft serve ice creams I've had ever, and the twist is my favorite! This last time the cone was the perfect texture and generous in amount. Yum! 😋

Parlor Ice Cream offers much more than ice cream with a complete menu of fast food items from hamburgers, hotdogs,to chicken strips. It has an efficient drive thru which we often use. The staff is always friendly and helpful.

Took grandchildren. Busy place with its drive thru. Located close to the Collins Rd. Off ramp in Marion. We ordered three items and it was just under $12. I ordered frozen yogurt and I thought it was excellent, so creamy. They also have a store on N. 10th in Marion, Iowa.

A great local icecream shop and fast food place. Friendly staff and good service. Prices are average and food is above average for taste and quality.
A great place to stop for a quick icecream treat or comfort food. It reminds me of the local icecream shop I used to go to as a kid years ago.

Great place for local ice cream are lemon chiffon flavor of the day (yogurt) is amazing I wish they had it all the time, great location near the high school outdoor seating and in the winter we really like their loaded baked potato soup and chili!

Small dinner feel that specializes in delicious ice cream. The HS workers are always very nice and I don't think I've ever had a bad dish of ice cream.

All of the ice cream and food here is delicious. Only trouble I have is getting them to put lids on ice cream that I tell them is to go. I always have to ask for them.

We are from out of town and my kids and I loved this place. The fine in area is fun and the ice cream is great.

Staff is always friendly. Love the prices, and the baby cone size. Its perfect to just satisfy your sweet tooth!
