Great ice cream, and lots of it. Plenty of flavors and massive scoops. They also have a store in the back with lots of great fairy-related and other products. The only issue I had was the lack of seating.

Love Calders milk, chocolate milk, cream, ice cream, cottage cheese, yumm! Have it delivered and occasionally stop in the store. They have updated their website which makes order changes easy.

They make really good ice cream but the customer service leaves a lot to be desired. My dad went in and waited in line for a milkshake and the girl refused to make him a milkshake because there were “too many people in line.” Terrible. Won’t be back.

They have the best milk and ice cream in the Detroit area. It is made at a local farm. Everything fresh and creamy!

Review №8

The ice cream is so much creamier than the stuff you buy at the grocery store. My friend got a cake cone, which was a little stale but my waffle cone was good and given the amount of ice cream you get a bowl is probably a better idea.

Always a happy place filled with memories. My dad enjoyed this establishment as I did, and my children, and grandchildren. Friendly service. Tasty selections. Make new memories with the ones you love.PS Calder Dairy is the starting point to a story by Lola Laslo in Manitowen Press Publishings summer anthology from 2019. The tale features a family in the Downriver area. The whole book is great, but I like that Laslo starts her story at Calder Dairy.

I went for the first time yesterday and was extremely disappointed. The ice cream had an icy rather than creamy consistency and the almonds in the ice cream were soft and old tasting

Best dairy downriver for a reason! Their dairy products are all fantastic, chocolate milk is the best around and nothing else comes even close.The only disappointing thing they have is that their ice cream is a bit gritty sometimes like the flavors arent totally dissolved, but its still great! Best around!

Been a landmark since before I was born. Wouldnt be Christmas without their eggnog or summer without a scoop or two at the ice cream counter. Have raised children and grandchildren with help from our local milkman! Hope theyre around long after I am- be a shame to raise a generation without Calders chocolate milk!

Review №34

Southeast Michigan family-owned dairy which offers high quality products fresh from the farm. When we had a large family, we had Calder delivered to our home. Childhood memories of the milkman that continue to live in reality even today. Now that the children are grown, we still stop by the store in Lincoln Park. Most recently, our items included drinking yogurt, egg nog (the richest and best anywhere), butter, french onion dip, and milk. BTW, a visit to the farm in Carleton is a must for families.

Review №36

Excellent milk... always fresh and rich! Egg nog so thick, a straw will stand up in it! Great assortment of prepackaged ice creams all year with a seasonal pallor. Most of the food products they sell are local.

Review №37

I love chocolate milk. I think its the best beverage on the planet. Recently, I saw this very plain, unassuming glass jar of chocolate milk at my local Wagoners grocery store in Mattawan, MI. I have never purchased chocolate milk that tastes this good! It is amazing!

Been going here since a child for egg nog every holiday season. My parents would drive all the way from Westside of Detroit just for the most delicious egg nog that will ever hit your tongue! There are other great fresh made products and ice cream as well. Exceptional service, clean and if you never try anything else there you must try the egg nog. Only during the holiday season.

Richest, creamiest dairy products! Such a treat! OUR eggnog EVERY Christmas for over 30 years. If you enjoy eggnog, you have to try this stuff! Ok ride from Clawson, Westborn Market in Berkeley also carries their eggnog at the holidays if easier for you to get to.

The black cherry ice cream was so good. They have several flavors and they will let you sample the ice creams if you are undecided on which flavor to choose. There are waffle, sugar and regular cones or you can choose a cup.

Review №59

If I were rating the nog alone, Id give 5 stars but its more to it than just the product for me. I believe in good service and treating customers the way Id like to be treated.It was my first time so I was very excited. I guess because it was something new and I believe in supporting local business. I heard how good the fresh nog was and wanted to try. I went in and bought a few bottles along with whipping cream and there just werent any sparks. A place like that knows their regulars so theyd also know a newbie so youd think theyd be super nice and thankful. The opposite though. The young man at the door was nice and the only person to tell me to have a good day, hello, or anything. A simple thank you goes a long way.Great nog though.

The Ice Cream, the chocolate milk and the other dairy items. This a old fashion dairy. The farm is in Carlton, Mi. U may pay a little more but it worth the money.

Review №75

WORLDS GREATEST CHOCOLATE MILK! Midnite chocolate & Guernsey are fine, but Calders is the champ ( for full- fat, real whole milk)! While youre there, grab some cinnamon sugar donuts from the farm; an iced pound cake, chocolate cream pie, Blakes apple cider, corn toastums, Better Made chips; and some Irish shortbread cookies! ( Oh yeah, and they can scoop u up some real ice cream at the shop around back as well!!)

I love their ice cream and made a special trip to the location. The employee declined to wear the mask properly despite a kind request and social responsibility in a pandemic. The mask was acting more like a chin guard. Feeling unsafe and at the neglect of the employee, I left without buying ice cream.
