A happy place to get an ice cream. Everyone was happy eating their ice cream. The place has a positive vibes and perfect to just enjoy your ice cream with your family and friends. They don’t have a lot of tables and chairs but they have drive through services. A lot of ice cream and sorbet options! You can eat ice cream every day to try all their flavours :) Very friendly staff.

Driving and looking for a great place for ice cream. Came up on Pete's. Must be good, long lines at window & drive thru. Service was fast. We had a hot dog & coney dog and ice cream. It was all great! No wonder the lines were long! Out in a more rural part of town. They got the orders out quick & lines went fast.

Pete's is a great place to stop. They are very well known and have a great business. They have food, scoop ice cream in MANY flavors and soft serve flavors of chocolate and vanilla. They give nice size portions of ice cream. Sometimes it is hard to find a place to park though as they are very busy.

Some of the best service I’ve ever experienced! The soft serve was delicious! I had to go back for seconds.

Pete's is a fantastic little ice cream and fast food stop. If you are looking for a small business outside of the hustle and bustle of Lima, here is the place for you! There are so many different types of ice cream flavors, so take a second to browse their menu beforehand. Their food menu has all the basic American fare, although I have not tried it it looked good! Petes is a great family-friendly spot for a stop after lunch or dinner. I recommend the banana split avalanche, strawberry smoothie, and peach hard dip. Happy eating!

I usually get an Avalanche. They have so many flavors and these avalanches are SOOOO GOOOOD! They are also very very thick!You can't go wrong on any choice you make.They have awesome shredded chicken, hot dogs. The staff are absolutely the best people you will meet.

We absolutely love Pete's! I don't know where they get their ice cream from but it is seriously some of the best I've ever had. The list of flavors is enormous! I seriously think they probably have over 40 different flavors is ice cream. To go along with that, my favorite style is the waffle cone. But, you can get a regular cone or in a bowl too. Their version of a DQ blizzard is better than the Queens.... Sorry not sorry, but it is. They have hot foods that are delicious too. You have to try the following ice cream flavors: salted carmel, moose tracks, cappuccino crunch, strawberry cheesecake and superman. Just do it.

Excellent ice cream shop with choices that you can't just get anywhere else locally. It's always a good choice to choose Pete's! Take my word for it.

I have a love, hate relationship with this place. I love the variety of ice cream and that I can choose from hard or soft serve. Not too many places in Lima have hard serve ice cream. I hate this place because at least once or twice a summer they get my order wrong. Also, it has a small parking lot so when it's busy it's really packed.

Love the Meathead hot dogs! Get them once a week during class season. Only a 4 star rating because i haven't tried more of their food options.

Best coney dog in town! Lots of ice cream treats and flavors. They even sell their mistakes in mystery bags.

By the time they had my order correct my food was cold, my ice cream was melted the most horrible ice cream restaurant in town. The children working there don't know the difference between a cup and a bowl. It took 3 trips to the window and speaking with the owner to get the order correct..

Best ice cream in town. Food is decent Tons of flavors. Plan on being there atleast 15-40 min especially at peak times. Let's outlaw banana flavoring though... Noone wants a banana shake without real 🍌. All love

My family and I came here for their Dole Whips and they were fantastic! The workers were so quick and kind with ordering and serving and the ice cream was high quality. It's definitely worth the drive if you live far away from it, 10/10

Best ice cream and frozen custard in the area. We drive past the local DQ to get there. Their portions have gotten considerably smaller this year but that's not really a bad thing.
