Artesana Ice Cream has some of the tastiest frozen treats I've ever had. I had the Hershey chocolate ice cream and it tasted just like Hershey milk chocolate, which has its own flavor. Karin had the strawberry beverage and we both loved it. Artesana is bringing artisan ice cream to downtown Marion and is helping create new life to that section of South Main. And like McDowell Local, Artesana is using locally sourced ingredients. I was also impressed with the fact it has vegan and lactose-free treats. Now I am certainly not a vegan and I am not lactose intolerant, but it is so nice and refreshing to have that in Marion for those people who are.
Wow! Finally a place to get vegan ice cream. Not only is the ice cream sooo delicious but the owners are just super people. Marion is so fortunate to have them in our downtown. �� �
We tried multiple samples and not one flavor was bad. Made it hard to decide which to get. We got a pint of vegan strawberry colada and it was amazing!! Very nice and welcoming <3 I hope it does well for years to come.
So excited to have this in little ol’ Marion! The owners were so very kind to us! Pretty sure I tried every flavor available and didn’t find anything that I didn’t like. I’m beyond excited about the natural ingredients and the vegan options!

We stopped in this afternoon for a treat to celebrate Eastfield’s back to school. The kids had Hershey’s Chocolate and Cookies and Cream in waffle cones. They gave it 5 stars I had the cream cheese with berries and the chocolate with coffee and almonds. Both were delicious but my favorite was the cream cheese and berries. The chocolate with coffee and almonds did not have enough nuts for me but it was still delicious! The service was fast and friendly. They were patient with my kids as they tried to decide what they wanted. Glad we will have a year round ice cream place!
Absolutely delicious!!! Two of us had cream cheese and berries and one of us had banana chocolate chip! What a wonderful addition to downtown Marion!
Got to try 3 different samples today and, WOW! Hands down some of the best ice cream I have ever tasted! Very creamy and sweet, but you can tell that it is natural ingredients. I am super excited to see them come to downtown Marion.
Tried the banana chocolate chip and the almond. Both were delicious! So excited to have ice cream in downtown Marion!
Tried the Pecan and Hershey Chocolate, with plans to work through the entire menu over the Summer! Excellent quality! Great Service.
The Decaf Cappuccino was amazing. I'm going to get a pint. It was so soft. It was made fresh that day. I tried other flavors too which will make it harder to choose next time! So excited about our downtown.
Gotta get the Cajeta! They have some great flavor combinations. Very good service.

Stopped in to see what all the fuss is about with my girlfriends last night, and Artesana didn't disappoint! Tried the Banana chocolate chip and you can really tell all the ingredients are fresh...delicious! We also had the coffee and mango and they were also delicious! Topped off with super-friendly service...great addition to downtown Marion :-)
My family had dessert here this morning after eating lunch at Big Orange Hoagie Factory and we all loved it!!! Mango Ice cream was DELICIOUS!!! Thank you for coming to our small town of Marion we will diffinately be back!!
Visited for the first time today and it was wonderful. The ice cream was such a treat and you can tell it is made with fresh, high quality ingredients. The owners are friendly and helpful. What a perfect addition to our downtown area.
Tried the strawberry and Italian chocolate . Yummmm. Excited to try more flavors but it’s going to be hard to not just get the same thing again lol . Very very good ! Welcome to downtown Artesana ! We are excited to have you . See you soon !
Wow. This is the real deal. So rich.
I only sampled the prune but it's very interesting. Saving that for another visit.
The cajeta is smooth & subtle, really lovely.
The cream cheese with berries is perfection.
But omg that choc coffee almond will spin your head around...and chocolate is usually not my first choice of flavors. :)
Great quick service. Not too may choices but a good variety and different type of ice cream. I got cream cheese berry it was amazing. They were unfortunately out of strawberry syrup that I wanted to add. My son got cappuccino flavor & loved it too!
I think Artesana Ice Cream is a great place to enjoy ice cream. The prices are very fair and reasonable. The staff are hard working and nice. As someone who understands the pressures of small business, I think Artesana Ice Cream is doing a great job within it's local community. Friendly, hospitable, and fair: the true cornerstones of small business!
Unique and delicious ice creams! We had Arroz con Leche and Banana Chocolate.
The shop is also lovely with great customer service!
Banana split was incredible. My sister got a milkshake and said it was the best she'd ever had in her life! Lucky she gets to stay here while I have to go back to CT.... 🤣 Staff was very friendly too, thank you Artesana 😊💕 Will definitely be back when we are in the area again!
I usually prefer gelato because it’s creamier than ice cream - but the ice cream here is creamy and delicious! I got the three scoop cup, chocolate, butter pecan and cookie dough. I can’t wait to come back!
I wasn’t able to just sit and relax longer since there was a loud buzzing, couldn’t tell if it was the lights or refrigeration. Not a huge deal to most, though!
Super yummy, can just get a cone and go! And make sure to leave a tip, these people are so nice!
Best banana split I ever had 😊
This is such a wonderful ice cream shop with a variety of flavors. The honey gives the ice cream a distinct flavor and texture that cannot be found at any chain shops or grocery stores. I love the unique flavors such as chocolate habanero, avocado, and arroz con leche.
Delicious! We got their sugar free and lactose free ice cream, but it was still very good! All of their flavors look delicious and the owner/manager was so kind.
Really good- friendly staff and good ice cream. LOVE the pup cups for a donation to local pet cause!
This place is very unique! We wanted ice cream and they were the only ones open in town so we gave it a shot. Boy I was I glad we did! The ice cream doesn’t taste like the traditional ice cream shop. It’s extremely flavorful and unique. The fruits are real fruit (which I usually don’t like) but this was delicious! We had a banana split, a cookie dough and two vanilla cones (I tried them all) and none disappointed!
By far, like way far, the best ice cream I've ever had. Ordered the flavor of the month and my God I ended up eating the rest of my husband's. the texture is like velvet, nothing like I've had before. The flavor was absolutely incredible. I don't even eat ice cream much but will drive 30 minutes to get this, it is that incredible. The owner there was such a sweetheart and gave us samples of all kinds which was equally as good. You can really tell he is happy that your enjoying it. The inside is super clean too!
I was not expecting such great ice cream! We stopped by on a whim and I was expecting the usual from an ice cream shop, but wow... so good. I think I had Bigfoot tracks, what a great name, and the flavor was like nothing I've ever had before! I will be visiting again soon, even if it will be winter shortly!
The ice cream is the best I’ve had in my entire life. The store is very cute and clean. The owner is very nice and helpful, gave us samples and what he likes, and let us know when different flavors would be available. A perfect way to spend a Saturday. We paid $5 for two scoops.
Driving through felt like ice cream. Highly recommend the chocolate cherry milk shake. Cute town and cute place to stop.
Very friendly staff and was willing to give us plenty of samples to make sure we got the flavor we wanted. The ice cream was very tasty! I am from Wisconsin and it was one of my top three favorite ice creams I have ever had. Can’t wait to go back.
Not only is it great ice cream but my daughter has a nut allergy and they use separate scoopers for the different allergens so it's safe for her eat. On the last visit we arrived 10 minutes after closing with a two year old ready for ice cream and they opened their doors and served us anyways. We will definitely return!
The ice cream is so so delicious and the staff/owners is so sweet.
Me and my friend went there and we got cones and they were delicious. They even stayed open a little longer so I could order a milkshake for my brother who was at home. 5 stars!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
