I was at BDI yesterday for the first time for the Free Goog Ice cream Milkshake compliments of Telus.

It was great! It had Blueberries, Bananas Cherries, Chocolate and Whipped cream. So Delicious!

I also enjoyed the view if the River and the walk across the bridge. I would defiantly go back this summer to indulge in other Icecream treats

The icecream is cool and very creamy. With a great selection of ice cream treats from the basics to exotic items ( Sleeping Beauty ). Price for a large soft serve ice cream cone is I believe around $3.50. Only thing to be mindful of is if you come when it's busy be prepared to wait up to 30 minutes to get served, otherwise great experience. Did I mention that their hot fudge is absolutely delicious ?

I do not see why this place is so popular. The lines are usually so long (15-20min wait on a sunny day) to get the same ice cream you can at other places the sergeant sundae, sub zero or banana boat (actually, those places are better).

BDI is a Winnipeg staple. There's something for everyone and BDI is so unique and different from your traditional ice cream shop. The location is perfect for going on walks across the bridge and there's a park close by. Coming here is one of my favorite summer activities and it's so nostalgic for many people.

BDI is a Winnipeg institution. Serving icecream and the "creamiest milkshake in Winnipeg, since 1957 this eatery has become synonymous with humid summers days. Home to the Goog special (or how they wish it was the Google special I bet :P ) and numerous new creations each year, you will love whatever treat you decide.

Be sure to take a walk over the bridge and take in the Red River.

Local favorite. Try the unusual flavors and talk a nice walk along the namesake bridge. COVID procedures keep the benches closed. But all other modes are good and the menu items are available for walk up and take out. Recommend an upside down shake.

I went here for the first time. I ordered the sleeping beauty for $10. Basically an emptied out half pineapple with a few chunks of pineapple bigger than you can fit into your mouth, two pieces of half cherries and whipped cream. Not even a scoop of ice cream. Just stick to the regular ice cream!

This used to be THE PLACE to go, however it just isn't what it used to be. Every year the prices go up, why? Because people will come no matter what because it was "Nostalgic back in the day", for the last few years they've taken advantage of their customers by raising the price and changing their ingredients. (Very noticeable in milkshakes, and Hot Fudge Sundaes). Despite the price, I gave this place so many extra chances because I thought it was just one bad experience, but I'm not coming back anymore. It's just not worth the money. The hadx ice cream is still okay, however it's not even made by them, so I can't really give them credit for that. The milkshakes used to be fantastic, but last year I noticed a HUGE change in the milkshake. (I'd get a chocolate banana shake or a choclate one). The ingredients tasted cheaper and I was still paying the same price for something that tasted really meh. Overall, I'm not coming back here anymore. It's changed, and it's just not the place for ice cream. If you're looking for good ice cream locations, then head over to Banana Boat or Sargent Sundae and you won't be disappointed. 1/5.

Don t get me wrong - this place has great ice cream and the walking bridge makes it ideal as a date location. HOWEVER they NEED to address the issue of waiting in line. It s a crapshoot as to what line to join and nothing is more irritating than seeing lines beside yours cycle while you are stuck waiting 45 minutes. MAKE IT ONE LINE!!! That way everyone gets served fairly, according to arrival time.
