Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Always our favorite. My very favorite is The Blueberry Lemon Cheesecake. I just tried the Lake Erie Cookie Monster and thought it was a close second, lol. Huge portions, amazing flavor, and cheap prices. Please go here!!!"
"Amazing place for ice cream. 51 flavors, some unique to the area. Free samples available. The workers are extremely friendly. The ice cream is amazingly good! Must try for the area. The pictures are single servings. Huge servings in my opinion."
"Oh my goodness! This place came highly recommended and did not disappoint! I had the brown butter bourbon and it was amazing!!! Definitely recommend to everyone when they are in the area"
"We did a weekend getaway for our sons birthday and we stayed at a hotel in Port Clinton. Instead of a birthday cake we took our 6yr old to Tofts Ice Cream Parlor to celebrate. The staff were all very helpful and cheerful. The amount of ice cream was well worth the money. A 2 scoop bowl looked like a 5 scoop bowl. There were lots of flavors and toppings to choose from. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a non commercial place to get some amazing tasting ice cream with a smile. Indoor and outdoor seating available."
"We visit every time we make it to Port Clinton. The young people who work here are very friendly and helpful and the Ice Cream is delicious."
"A must visit ice cream parlor! Made from local milk from Ohio’s oldest dairy. I ordered a hot fudge sundae and it was amazing! Ice cream is second to none!"
"They have a huge selection of unique flavors. I got bourbon brown butter truffle and lemon blueberry cheesecake. "2 scoops" is actually like 6, and the price is very reasonable - you get a ton of ice cream. I also got mine in a waffle cone bowl. This is my first time at this location, but I stop at Toft's whenever I'm in the Sandusky area ever since my friend introduced me to it."
"Wow the ice cream is great. We took a drive up to Lakeside and stop at Toft's. If you are in the area, they are the go to place for ice cream ."
