Of the many good ice cream places in the greater Syracuse area, I think Gannon's is the best. For me, their Valley Drive location is quite out of the way as I live on the other side of town, but once in a while I'll make the special trip, as it is worth it. The quality of the ice cream... More

I love this place!! The only thing about this place that's negative is their lack of sugar free options.

We have been going to Gannon's for years. Never been disappointed. Everything is excellent - shakes (peanut butter -- yum!), flurries, soft serve, hard ice cream. You can't go wrong!

If you like Ben & Jerry's, you will love this place. It has a very large selection of homemade ice cream which makes it hard to choose from. What I like best about the ice cream is that it is loaded with stuff and textures, like lots of strawberries, or chocolate chips or peanut butter cups, fudge sauce, caramel sauce,... More

We lived not far from there and the kids always asked for some Gannon's......if they had behaved that day a short walk down the street they had the best ice cream in Syracuse. We now live to far to walk but we still make it our treat.

I like the store in the Valley the best. It's a great place to take the kids for great pics of enjoying ice cream. The inside is painted with colorful murals of ice cream friends. The picnic tables are painted too! My kids love it.

Friendly service and always enjoy everything I try at Gannons. They have a wide variety of flavors and ice cream options. Parking can be tough on warm summer evenings!

This place is the best place to indulge in homemade ice cream. My favorite is the raspberry chocolate. This ice cream is so thick and rich you can almost chew it! Yum!

The most important thing to know about Gannon's is that it serves up the best ice cream in Syracuse. One of the owners even went to "ice cream college" and they've been developing their flavors since the 1980's. My favorite is chocolate raspberry truffle, my husband's is the rum raisin. But you'll find lots of flavors just right for you... More
