A childhood favorite - a family treat. We would get a cone and then watch the planes takeoff and land. Great memories.
Downright amazing. It's a struggle to choose between my norm and their new Pumpkin flavor!!!

Yum, have many childhood memories of going to Charlotte for a custard. My first custard of the season with a girlfriend visiting from Colorado PRICELESS ! She misses Abbotts so it is a must do when she visits
Love Abbott's Custard!! Best memories ever being at the lake and airport with my family and loving Abbott's!! Need a franchise in Columbia, Maryland!! Get Abbott's whenever I get back to Rochester but it's been years.�
How can you not love Abbots Custard! It is the best especially up by the lake.

omg the sugar free maple ice cream is amazing!!!
Yum..........
Rochester best.
Lake ave and beach ave is the best on a warm Rochester night.
This is one of the reasons we Rochesterians tolerate the winters.
A Rochester landmark down at the lake. I try to get some frozen custard every time I get to Rochester.
Frozen custard is the best, especially in the sumner.
Abbott's Custard is simply delicious and always served with a smile. It just doesn't taste the same unless you are in Charlotte..
Beat ice cream ever! No one a come close to Abbotts!!
“ The BEST” frozen custard in all of North America!!
Very friendly staff. Quick to get our order. Delicious as always. They did a good job handling the rush of people during a hot summer day and the customer service was excellent. Took the time to answer questions about the menu.
We ordered a cake for my daughter’s and Crystal S went above and beyond to make sure my special requests were fulfilled. And everyone commented on how great it was as well.
Best spot for frozen custard in Rochester. Right up on the lake next to Ontario Beach Park, plenty of parking nearby, and this place is always hoppin! Nice for a family outing, or a nostalgic date night with your significant other. Chocolate almond on a waffle cone is my go-to. Note: custard is a softer 'soft serve' ice cream and it melts very quickly. Have little ones? Grab a pile of napkins...you'll need it.
Delicious black raspberry with rainbow sprinkles cone. My BF had a chocolate cone. Great way to end a not as great lunch at another location. Nostalgia hit at this location - a pay phone!!
Was visiting Rochester and a friend from the area told me I had to go to Abbott's. So glad we did! The custard is soft, super creamy, and delicious. We had the blueberry, cookies 'n cream, and pumpkin, and everyone loved it. The location by Ontario Beach makes a trip to the park even better. Wish we had this down south where I live!
Love this place! It’s a must have every time I come back and visit Rochester. You’ll run into some long lines but that’s a testament to the product you’ll receive. Highly recommended any time of year!
Great ice cream and reminiscing all the sweetheart dates that you spent down here at the lake. Sitting next to my sweetheart right now! We have to come down here several times each summer.
The custard is delicious! The staff is friendly and kind! But honestly, the service seems slow. We waited between 10 to 15 min to be served in line with 2 small groups ahead of us (2 to 3 people). On our day the custard was a bit extra soft too. Despite it being cooler, the custard melted fast.
If you go, it is a delicious treat that is a local icon! Just know ahead of time that this delicacy is moderately priced, the wait times can be long, and the custard melts fast!
What can you say about Abbott's Frozen Custard, at the beach in Charlotte, first cone of the season. Winter is ending, spring is coming, and all is right with the world. 👍🏻
Apr 2022: First cone of the season and Red Raspberry custard was on the menu... yum!
There is only one Abbotts location. We have been regulars for 45 years.
This is hands down one of the best frozen custard places in the U.S.! Love their chocolate custard. Service is fast, even when they are busy. Staff are always friendly and attentive. Great job guys!
The lines are long, but they move quickly. The custard was delicious, but the portions were small.
We come from PA to grab ice cream from Abbott's. It's our tradition whenever we spend a day at Ontario Beach. There's always a unique flavor, and it's always done well, like the Movie Night we had most recently. We're typically hard-dip ice cream lovers, but this is the best soft serve treat to us!
