It's an overpriced ice cream place that claims to be a "bar". I'm not really sure why it's 'hyped' up on Yelp. There's the standard ice cream toppings and that's nothing extraordinary. I got a rootbeer float that could have used WAY more ice cream than the small glob they let slip halfway into the glass. I was also given a spoon with an edge that cut my lip because it had clearly been dropped in a blender and turned on. I wouldn't come here again. We stopped only for my kiddos. And I did take photos, but my kids are in them, so I'm going to leave those out.They serve Guernsey ice cream just like everyone else.

This place is a sweet tooth heaven. My friend and I had the opportunity to pay this place a visit and we were not disappointed. They offer everything from sundae's, shakes, pastries, chocolates, coffee/latte's, and so much more. I had the s'mores latte with a chocolate croissant and my friend got a Boston cooler (ice cream mixed with vernors ginger ale). Everything was delicious. The pricing was a little high, but not too bad. Our service was great and quick and very accommodating to any changes we made in our order. There's not much space to sit inside so I would recommend taking it to go if going with a large crowd.

You have to call your order ahead before you can pick up the order. They have the door locked and will bring out the order to you.We ordered a large strawberry milkshake with no whip cream. The large milkshake is a 20 ounce cup. I also ordered a mint chip small milkshake, which is a 16 ounce less whipped cream. We also ordered a hot caramel sundae with vanilla ice cream and whip cream. I also ordered a double raspberry Italian ice in a cup. Since everything has to go the ice cream's are better in cups, than melting in a cone. The strawberry was a winner as was the mint chip milkshake. The caramel sundae was also tasty for mom. My Italian ice was different, not what I was expecting, but not bad.

Definitely try their banana pudding and oreo pudding. House made, whipped to perfection, and less calories then youd think. You can also get a fine selection of chocolates, candies, and milkshakes.

I've been coming here for years. Ice cream flavors are lacking these days. The real reason for this review, they didn't care to listen. They were asked if raisins are in the carrot cake. They said no. Guess what? There were raisins in the carrot cake. My husband thought he would do something nice for my birthday. He knows I despise raisins. He was assured "No Raisins" by the staff who clearly could care less. I don't have an allergy, but others may. Don't be jerks! If you don't know, say so and we would have taken our business elsewhere. Not cool.

I have been coming here for years! Now I bring my kids here. I must mention a update so your aware as of my most recent time in here they have new restrictions up. When you walk up there is a sign on the door saying you need to call in your order and they will bring it to the door for you. They have the menu up on the window. But this just isn't the same as being able to go in there and smell the fresh chocolate and candy fill the air. They have over 20 flavors of ice cream and dairy free ice. My favorite is their originals. They have the old school soda fountain and original bar stools and decorations from the 50s and yes this is the one from Detroit originally. If you ask for a water they will give it to you in the original paper cups and chrome holder. I hope the inside opens back up soon. Nothing beats playing the jukebox eating ice cream!!!

The desserts are good but the staff is so inattentive.This is my fourth time going here and every time I've left uncomfortable with the total lack of customer service. Since I'm finally leaving a review it's safe to say I'm not going back.

Located in the Greater Mack corridor of Grosse Pointe Woods, we found Chocolate Bar Cafe served some of the BEST Michigan-based ice cream and sundaes that we've ever had! This cafe is one of the original Louis Alinosi ice cream parlors having begun over 100 years ago. Alinosi's Spumoni is a well-known local favorite. I ordered a scoop and was served a VERY generous portion of goodness.So flavorful were the chocolate selections that my companion nearly asked for a second sundae! Seating is located within, and there are tables outside along Mack Ave. The young servers were friendly, patient and give you free tastes to help with deciding your flavor of the day. Prices are reasonable. Check out the juke box too!
