I really love what they've done with the place. My wife and I took our family here and had several scoops of ice cream. The way they show off the creamery now is fun but I remember as a kid is going through more of the factory. But I do understand that with everything they've been through they are n...

Great place to visit! They've stopped doing tours, but have an observatory deck where you can watch the whole process. A guide is stationed up there to answer any and every question we had (really, we could NOT stump him). Be sure to stop at the ice cream counter to get a sample of their flavors, an...

Best ice cream place I will ever need to go to. I went here expecting a lame tour with long boring speeches but blue bell surprised me. Instead we went on a self guided tour of the creamery where we got to see firsthand what workers were making and how everything ran. Afterwards we went to the ice c...

Loved our trip here. The grandchildren loved it so much. They have an observation deck with stairs or an elevator to get up there. With low windows, so even the shorter ones can see the packing process. It was really neat to see. They had employees up there if you had any questions they were more th...

We were so excited to finally visit Blue Bell after living in Texas for 11 years. Coming to find out, they no longer offer tours, so we walked the visitor center, then visited the observation deck, the gift shop, parlor, and the baseball hall of fame. It was still fun, but not what I expected. The i...

How can anyone not love Blue Bell? BB is pretty much everything that is right with Texas and the deliciousness that is made with love. The factory tour is really awesome to do if you are in town and I suggest calling ahead to make sure they are doing tours and also getting there early. Lines to get ...

Fun place to bring the family. There is a visitors center with the history of Blue Bell and then you can go to the Ice Cream Parlour. From the Ice Cream Parlour you can go to the observation deck and watch as the ice cream is made! Ice cream is $1 for a big scoop.

We have been coming here since I was in grade school and it only gets better each time. We came by today on a whim and were helped at the ice cream counter very promptly. Very small crowd, everyone enjoying a clean ice cream parlor and delicious inexpensive scoops.

Their country store is full of ...

I thought the place that you would view how they make the ice cream would be bigger and you would actually get to explore the factory more. But really it just takes you to a little hallway where you can just look at the workers package the ice cream through a window. My visit literally lasted less t...

They showed us the facilities, where they make the ice cream, everything was a dollar, for all the different flavors. It was all very interesting, can tour the whole place in probably 45 minutes, if you stretch it to sit down and eat some ice cream. Of course it is worth it.

Get REAL TEXAS! Blue Bell is not the same ice cream it use to be. And the primary reason it's no longer a quality premium ice cream is because they have gone cheap on the taste by using disgusting and foul-tasting corn syrup in all their ice cream.
They need new creative and above all CARING manage...

Really enjoyed the visit to Blue Bell Creameries! This was my third visit, the first being in high school - now I m 45. Before, there was a tour and things were somewhat different. I think this has improved. The best part of the tour was the last room, which was the upper level observation deck, whi...
