Reviews of Ted & Wally's Ultra-Premium Ice Cream
Q W
Ted and Wally’s is a fun name serving up some darn good ice-cream. I thought it was premium but ultra-premium? It was good and it deserves a 5 star review. We stopped in after I took grandma to the park down the way. She loves to play on the jungle gym, fight with the kids and hide around corners when she goes potty in her diaper. She also works up an apatite for ice-cream so we were in luck. The place is super cool inside, fun to see how it’s made and the flavors are unique and fun. Super creamy ice-cream but not heavy, if that’s possible. Go get ya some and let them know granny sent ya.

I tried “Quit your job and eat chocolate” and “Brown sugar Espresso bean” ice cream which were 2 of the day’s flavors. They both were very creamy. The service is very professional and the staff who helped us is so knowledgeable about the flavors. She patiently explained to us about what they were. Thank you so much. Ice-cream lovers must try!
James Ellingson
Very good ice cream. I would say it's a little creamier and richer than your average kemps. They have many unique flavors that rotate. There was a lot of different kinds of chocolate, had a spicy one and few Easter themed ones.A few spots for parking. They allow free samples so can at least try some ones you wouldn't get. Price is on point for a tourist spot so a little higher than DQ but you are paying for the historical value. Fun spot to visit.

Great place to cool off on a hot summer day in Omaha! Ted & Wally’s is serving up some made from scratch ice cream the old fashioned way, using locally sourced, fresh ingredients! As you wait in line, you can see the ice cream being churned in the old machines. Along with some traditional flavors, there are many unique ones to choose from, including the peanuts and coke which was really tasty! This is a must stop while visiting downtown Omaha.
Khana Safarnama
We went there once and loved their ice cream! The 20% butterfat makes the ice cream taste really good. The “Flavors of the day” were a little different than traditional flavors such as garlic etc. but we went with the simple ones i.e. Vanilla Bean and Chocolate, and they were just too good! The staff was very friendly and allowed us to taste some different flavors before deciding our final picks. Highly recommend this place!
Crystal
Homemade delicious ice cream that has creative flavors, vegan and keto friendly options.
Staff is friendly. Indoor and outdoor seating. Parking lot.
Julia Thompson
The only thing that ever changes about this Old Market gem is their daily flavors. Love this sweet spot. Today’s flavors that we tried were “slutty brownie” & the classic “cotton candy”….and yes, they were both delicious.
Bill Mischnick
If you like ice cream, eat here. One more time for those in doubt- if you sorta, kinda, like or love iced cream, eat here! :D If for any reason you think I’m wrong and this isn’t some of the tastiest, creamiest, deliciousiest ice cream you’ve had, let me know in the comments. *I don’t think there’s a comments section I just hear that phrase a lot and thought I’d get on board with saying it.
Zachary Hottel
I loved my purple cow ice cream at Ted & Wally's. The site was very cool and retro, the flavor choice was ample, and service was great. I definitly made the right choice to stop here on a hot Omaha day. Make sure to visit when you are in the Old Market area.
Connor Gillis
Amazing fresh and rich ice cream! This is a treat and is something you cannot get easily on the West Coast. Absolutely worth the trip.
Rah Tas
I would have regretted it if I had not tried their ice cream! Especially the red velvet flavor. Creamy,delicious ice cream!!
Valerie Paxton
Delicious ice cream! Perfect consistency. The line moves fast, but plenty of time to decide what you want before you order. We stop in every time we visit Omaha. It would be fun to see a few inventive/local ingredients mixed in.
Gregory LeCleir
This place has been a staple in Omaha for years! And it has never disappointed. Staff is always friendly. Ooo! And their hot fudge is also out of this world good.
They always have amazing flavors, and vegan options which is wonderful. I'm not vegan but in case you are and are reading this, wahoo! Go get ice cream.
Jaycie Wetenkamp
Flavors are always amazing. Shout out to Veronica last night, we looked and Google said they were open til midnight and it was right before 11. They actually closed at all, but we were a few minutes early but the doors were locked, and as we were turning around she insisted we come in still and get some ice cream, and it was 2 of the best flavors I've had from there so far.
Amanda Pattrin
Always delicious! We are so grateful to have found a place that serves keto ice cream! They have vegan and gluten-free ice cream, too, in addition to regular ice cream.
Sara Line Frisk
The only ice cream shop you must visit when in Omaha is Ted & Wally’s! This old-fashion, craft-churned, made-from-scratch ice cream shop is a quaint shop with booths and tables inside providing plenty of seating. There are plenty of daily ice creams that are created right before your very eyes. My personal favorite is the Dutch Chocolate however Mint Chocolate Chip is a close second. A pleasant surprise is that they also offer vegan and gluten-free options. It’s a popular place to go, so lots of people however the line kept moving and before we knew it, it was our turn. The staff are great about providing samples, so if you are unsure about the flavor, just ask for a sample! They also offer floats, sundaes and shakes. Great location, and I’m sure as the summer months are right around the corner more seating may be available also outside? Definitely a sweet treat after walking around in The Old Market.
Tarra Steele
What a great flavor! We got the small chocolate ice cream with two toppings came out to 8$ but warren Buffett goes here so they need the money lol
Doren Tripp
Great ice cream!
It’s not cheap but your paying for top quality ice cream, a cute location, and a wonderful experience.
The staff is great and the ice cream is made in collaboration with lots of local products which I think makes the ice cream even more worth it.
Eat Local = Support Local
Gregg Bendtsen
Expensive. Not premium. Dutch Chocolate was boring. Butter Pecan was meh. If you want really good ultra premium ice cream, find somewhere serving Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream. Get the Zanzibar Chocolate. Heaven!
Robert Bogolin
I stopped in again and it is just as good as ever! Keep it up!
Ted & Wally's is some of the best ice cream I have had anywhere, ever. It is truly homemade and creamier than most others. They have different flavors depending on when you go, and they source local as much as possible, and the end product shows. This time I tried the mint chip, peach made with goat cheese, apple cider sorbet, and standard vanilla. Whenever I am in Omaha I make sure to stop by.
Laken Brock
By far the best ice cream money can buy. We have searched all over the country to try and find anything nearly as good. They always have Dutch chocolate and vanilla, a sherbet, and a vegan flavor, but the rest of the flavors change every day and can be very fun and unique! If you're in Omaha, you have to check out ted and Wally's.
Gina Bongiovi
Let me preface my review by saying that I don't usually like ice cream. It never meets my textural expectations. This ice cream, though, is PERFECT. Delicious, truly creamy, not too hard but definitely not soft serve/ice milk airy garbage found elsewhere. The flavors are rich, fully developed and artfully blended. The little shop is charming, easily accessible with lots of parking. Staff is friendly and attentive. The vegan options are incredible too!
Corey Whitworth
Although a really cute locale right in the middle of the Old Market, the ice cream was overrated. There were only four flavors available when we went on a Saturday evening. The line was out the door although it moved quickly. Staff was impolite, borderline rude. Not sure I'd return or recommend with the lack of flavor choices and poor service.
Peter De Smidt
We stopped by here on a vacation, and were pleasantly surprised with the authenticity of the ice cream, and wide variety of flavors! The building itself was instagram worthy/ready. The neon light filled the small space and gave the building a nice aesthetic. Overall a hidden gem in Omaha.
John Preston
This place is awesome! The ice cream is great! It's made from scratch in-house, with rock salt and ice, and it's super creamy, due to the high percentage (20%) of butterfat they use! They have really good flavors too! Some are unique, but some are more traditional, for the less adventurous. I got two scoops: the first was batman chocolate, which was dark chocolate and blueberry, and the second was lemon verbena butterscotch! Both were excellent!
K A
Been eating and rating local ice cream parlors. Things we like: locally sourced ingredients, homemade ice cream made right in store, fresh and yummy ice cream, wide variety of flavors and free samples. Free parking in the lot is a nice touch. (although I paid the meter before knowing this). Cute parlor with lots of seating. Appears well liked as there was a line and no seating when we were there.
Things we didn’t like: $10.95 for 2 cones is insanity!! Kids were disappointed not to get cotton candy ice cream (that depends on the day. But the kids are rating). We also noted you can’t really see the ice cream unlike other places we have visited. My 13 year old did say Ted and Wally’s was her favorite.
ASH
I decided to try a different place to eat ice cream and went here. The ambience was neat and colorful. I tried the grape nerd and orange ice-cream. That was kind of sour and I didn’t really like it that much so I tried vanilla and Dutch chocolate they were good. I also tried the coffe flavor as I am a coffe lover, I loved it. I also tried the fruit basket which was with the strawberry and dried raisins, that was sour and sweet and will be great for people who love fruits. The vanilla bean was plain and sweet. However, I enjoyed the evening with my family at this place and the servers were so kind and very helpful. If you want to try anything new I would suggest you to take a sample of it, so that you can take what you like.
Sara Pineda
Fast and friendly service, and delicious ice cream!
I got a garden mint sorbet dish with cacao nibs. The sorbet was incredibly smooth and strong, and the bitter nibs paired perfectly. Sweet tooths be warned, there are no chocolate chips on the mix-ins menu, but I believe I saw Twix, Snickers, Heath, and Reese’s.
Molly Casey
If you do anything in Omaha, it has to be getting ice cream at Ted and Wally’s. It is the CLASSIC ice cream shop with all the nostalgia you could ask for. Genuinely some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had. The staff are usually college age students that are ON IT and just so nice. Get the ice cream, you deserve the ice cream, you can’t miss this ice cream!
Barry Coates
This place was busy, and stayed busy while we were there. And now we know why. The line moved pretty quickly and the ice cream was really good. We had the vegan mint chip which was awesome. We haven't had mint chips since going vegan and it was as good as we remember. We'll be back.
M. Anastasia Bucskova
Both my husband and I ordered malts. I got grass fed sweet cream and he got black walnut. Mine was thick and delicious but his was really watery and not very good. Really cute interior.
Melissa Dunn
Delicious the ice cream, unique flavor offerings, and the shop is a vibe of its own!!!
Greg Johnson
Hands down best ice cream in the state. Flavors vary by day, and always something unique. Shared an orange sherbert with my daughter, and wife had the lemon Graham cracker. Delicious! Very busy place, line is usually out the door but they do an excellent job of moving people along! Never under staffed. Everything home made In store
Kirk Bratvold
A decent selection of ice cream in a nice cozy little shop.
Renae
We arrived later on a Friday evening, as first-timers from another state (Iowa), after spending the day in Omaha for doctor appointments. The line was long, but moved quickly. The shop was neat to look at, and had a good vibe to it. There was a bit of a nostalgic feeling, which fits great with being in the Old Market in Omaha.. Most people were passing through the shop and heading back outside once served. I really liked that they had an exit door at the end of the order line, so you don't have to walk past the crowd to get back outside. You can stay fairly separated from others if you'd like to.
My only small downsides were:
1. There weren't a lot of flavors to choose from, and some of them listed, we were unsure of what they actually were flavor-wise. I'm sure part of this is because it was later at night and they had a busy day. I get it, but if you know thats going to happen, plan more product variety.
2. Although a plus as far as not having to wait long, the line moved very quickly. It was a bit intimidating to order, especially having questions about what was being served. I felt rushed, and the workers were actually telling us to please keep moving down as we were trying to order. It didn't help that the actual menu can't be seen until you get to the counter to order. It would be helpful to have it posted large, or make them available individually, somewhere along the line when waiting...especially for those like us who had no idea what we were doing. :)
3. Three separate people were trying to take our order in the short amount of time we were at the counter, it was confusing. They didn't seem to really be communicating with each other, only the guests.
Overall, a long review, but not any huge issues! The ice cream tasted wonderful and we will definitely be back next time we find ourselves roaming the Old Market!
Bob Kestel
Solid ice cream for a fair price. The flavor combinations can be a lot of fun, but I'd personally prefer a bit more adventurous flavors. What they do, they do very well though. There's never been a flavor that I've tried that I didn't like. Definitely a place to stop if you're a fan of ice cream.
Grail Reilly
Great home made ice cream with lots of great options to choose. Friendly staff with great suggestions. A little short on seating area and a little dirty. Good overall experience. Would definitely go back.
Chris Stubenrauch
Had my first date here and going strong about four years, so I guess you could say this place is magical? Fun and funky, the flavors are always inventive and delicious but maybe a little bit overpriced. I ran into Warren Buffet here once who occasionally visits and the always-hiding Waldo somewhere in the store is a good reason to come back
Cayti Burch
They have vegan ice cream!!!! Tonight's was vegan Almond Joy and it was so yummy! I have a milk allergy and hardly ever get to eat dessert out, so I especially enjoyed it! The place was busy, staff was friendly and working hard, and the decor is fun and eclectic. Stop by and enjoy
Molly S
Great place! Normally the line is out the door, but we were surprised it wasn't too busy (but it was Monday night in December. . . Sooooo) service is fast and friendly and there's great atmosphere.
Tina
The staff was a little short with me deciding which ice cream I wanted. But they gave good samples and the ice cream was very good. The store was clean.
Wildcat 6319
Tried this place out while waiting for a train. Pretty substantial line…not surprising on a Friday night with nice weather. Wow!!! Ice cream is locally sourced and made on site. Well worth the wait (which ended up being only about 15 minutes). Definitely give it a try if you’re ever in Omaha!
Nicollette Rempe
Go To Place!! If you want the original homemade flavor and all the fun mixed in you have to visit Ted and Wally's!! Great location within Old Market
Ralph Granger
Artisan ice cream thay changes daily. Creamy, rich, and delicious! Worth the wait!
Jason Schmidt
By far this is the best ice cream you will be able to find in Omaha. Freshly made right there with high quality ingredients. Don't be afraid of the long line when you see it - service is prompt and courteous and you will be glad you waited!
Jill Lorsch
I really love this place. It has such good ice cream, definitely a 10/10
T K
I usually love this place and it’s ice cream but they really need to revitalize this shop on the inside. It looks like a dump honestly and dirty. With the amount of business it gets, it should put some effort into making the shop nicer. And my biggest pet peeve is that you can’t see the ice cream when you’re at the counter.
John Potter
Had a great Experience here and they have a wide variety of flavors. I feel like the prices are a little steep but you get great quality ice cream and service and being in downtown Omaha is perfect. I’ve been coming for years and this place never disappoints. Also they sometimes have keto/paleo and vegan options which is nice. This time I got vegan Vanilla bean which was so creamy smooth and fantastic I was blown away. But the mint kombucha ice cream which was alright, kinda tasted like cough syrup but ok- doesn’t compare to their local Black raspberry peach kombucha sorbet that they’ve had before which was fantastic amazing delicious
Kaci P
I'll be craving this for a long time! It was SO good! Very flavorful and the texture was perfect! My family has been making homemade ice cream for years, so I know how hard it can be to nail the perfect texture and flavor. This place did a fantastic job! I'm mad at myself for not bringing any home. Definitely make a stop here!
Tom E. A
Fun experience, long lines, but not necessarily worth the wait. You can see the ice cream being made right in the shop and they do have some unusual flavors. You can also get shakes, malts, and floats. I had a scoop of Dutch chocolate and a scoop of mint chip - they were good but not outstanding - but $6 seemed overpriced. I would stop back in if it wasn't a 30 min line.
Madison Fobes
The ice cream is BEYOND delicious we tried pear sorbet, cookies&coffee, and London fog and they were all incredible!! The most creamy and flavorful ice cream I’ve ever had, and it’s so cool to walk in and see them actually making ice cream by hand! Shout out to the staff working today everyone was so incredibly friendly and helpful!
george koepp
Amazing ice cream, 20% butterfat!
Home made right here in the lobby.
T. J. Brumfield
Simply the best. Fresh, homemade ice cream with interesting flavors all the time. They offer keto-friendly and vegan options. Service is quick and friendly. If you are in the Old Market, you have to stop here.
Tiffany Roberts
It wasn’t the greatest ice cream I’ve ever had but the flavors were good. Specifically the peanut butter! Get one scoop with two flavors so you get more for your money😜 …
Jennifer Trent
Got the goat milk French vanilla and Dutch chocolate. It was delicious! Love that they make this the old fashioned way with ice and rock salt. Super friendly and fast service.
Michelle Walburn
It's not bad but it wasn't anything special that I would have to go back for.
Eric H
Quite possibly the best vanilla bean ice cream I've had in 50 years.
Kyle B.
This was the best ice cream experience of my life!!!!! Thank you Ted and Wally!!! 1000% would recommend the Roswell, NM ice cream, it is out of this world, and I literally feel like 6 of my 5 senses had an encounter with an alien species. 👽👾👽10/10 would recommend.
Super friendly and facilitating staff!! 😊
Devin Bates
Fun, unique, and eclectic seasonal flavors. Great atmosphere. Ice cream is high quality and homemade. Amazing!
Erdenebileg Bat-Erdene
This place usually crowded. The price is reasonable and rich unique flavors. The staff sometimes friendly sometimes not.
Tom Lee
Great homemade ice cream with a variety flavors, some funky like hot and spicy ice cream. Charming interior, looks like a converted old gas station, benches around outside as well where you can sit on a warm evening.
sophie smith
I have worked for Ted and Wallys for quite a while now, and have nothing but great things to say about the establishment and staff especially. We all are like one big dysfunctional family! If you are looking for speciality ice creams (Keto, vegan/sorbet, and sherbets!) But be sure to check the flavors online before you go, they change quite often!
Steve Hatch
Very nice old school ice cream shop. Friendly and quick service. Grab a sample.
Raymond Pfand
Excellent ice cream. The flavors change every day.
Debbie Hohler
Ice cream made the old fashioned way. Super creamy & delicious.
Ashley Coats
Tried this place last night. Location was fun and service was good but the ice cream was just nothing to write home about. I got the baklava and Dutch chocolate and it was just not impressive. Not sure what the hype is about.
Jonathan Snell (ForWhyWhatSayYouSir)
Really cool little shop. They actually use the old school ice cream machines which is awesome.
Brian
Loved it!! Worth the wait and the line moves pretty well. Cardamon caramel was salivating!
Preston Price
So good fresh homemade ice cream with a variety of unusual flavors. Must stop place in Omaha.
Kris C
Excellent ice cream and good service. Chocolate and Vanilla. Yum! Well worth a stop in when visiting Old Town.
John Hennink
Lots of ice cream for the scoop price, great selection of flavors.
Brenden Leonard
I’m 31 and I’ve been coming here since I was a little kid and it’s still just as good as it ever was, same ice cream makers as you walk up to order, same local charm. You HAVE to come here if you’re visiting town!
Vanessa Taylor
Locally sourced ingredients is a cool point. Had watermelon sorbet, which lacked flavor. Had unique flavors of ice cream.
Tony Buccheri
I know Ted and Wally's is a staple of sorts Downtown, and remains popular, but there are much better places now to get ice cream. I understand costs for goods have gone up, and the fixed costs for location, labor, etc are high, but $6 for a small scoop of kids ice cream is a bit much. Taking into account the wait, it's not worth it and we probably won't be back any time soon. Coneflower and eCreamery are MUCH better choices (as are chains places like Baskin Robbins, Goodrich, Cold Stone etc. At least at these places you get a generous serving and the product is equally as good if not better with a far greater selection.
Jesse Locklear
Super yummy ice cream with amazing flavor options.
Gabriel Aponte
Probably the best ice cream since we get back from Germany
Ralph Granger
Thick, rich, creamy and different, unique flavors and great service! Super delish and worth the wait... and trust me, you will wait!
Michael Albright
The ice cream is great assuming you find a flavor that you like. I’ve just found this place to have a lot of unique flavors that I don’t always enjoy. Otherwise, a great spot for ice cream
Larry Britton
If you love ice cream, but have to watch your carbs, check out the Keto flavors at both locations. One of my favorites is the raspberry with frozen raspberries. Another is the Bulletproof coffee flavor, they do not make it often enough!
The cappuccino and coffee flavors make a great breakfast treat (ice cream for breakfast! ) Take home a quart and be good to yourself in the morning!
Raelynn Wolery
The ice cream was amazing. Worth the wait for sure
Frankie MacGregor
It's pretty expensive and a lot of the tables were dirty but as far as I could tell, there was just one kid working by himself and he was doing a great job. They were slammed because of the nice weather. The flavors change often and sometimes they don't have anything I like but today they had a great Coconut Almond Macaroon.
Hailey L
Keto icecream was spot on and the same price as everything else! Would definitely recommend!!
Julia Geckle
Definitely try this place. Usually busy but they have a variety of flavors, some are a little weird ( like sweet corn) The ice cream is tops, the line is long. Worth the wait. Just check menu before you go cause it's so hard to decide what flavors to try.
Jose Israel Briseño Aguirre
Great place to talk and anjoy ice cream
Timothy Johnson
Not sure what flavor I got, tastes like a slushy and coke and it’s good!
jack jewell
The best free samples, get a shake. Crazy flavors. 👍😛 …
Denise Lani Pascual
There is usually a line on the weekend, but it moves quickly due to a fun and efficient staff. The ice cream is always delicious and they have fun, sometimes unexpected flavors like mint green tea. Dutch chocolate and vanilla bean are my kids favorites and they opt for mix-ins like m&ms. It's nice to have a local ice cream shop that continues to be successful through the next generation. I went here as a teen and now take my kids here when we come back home to visit.
Seth Goertzen
Good ice cream but would be nice if they had coffee.
Ville Andersson
The home-made ice cream and the atmosphere is unbeatable
Joan Karre
Ice cream too expensive. Shorted me a dollar but didn't say anything because that was his tip anyway. I don't think he could count change back. Even used a calculator. They need a register that tells them How much change to give back
Luis Miner
What can I say? It's Ted and Wally's; one of the best if not THE best ice cream places in town. Been going for 20 years and never had a bad order or experience. Nothing but love for this little shop.
Abigail Berthold
Our favorite local place for an ice cream treats.
Cynthia wratchford
I was excited to take my girls for the first time but endstead got Young Kids behind the Counter, Only one Gentleman was nice and had great customer skills. Was not impressed, Icecream won me over.
Kenya Woodfork
Last week I went to Ted and Wally's ice cream with my auntie and cousin, for the first time. When we got there it was a really nice place with a really nice space. I saw that there where colorful lights and a menu with different ice cream flavors. At first I wasn't interested in going anywhere to try anything but, I have to admit, it was a good experience. I got this ice cream called Coke & Rootbeer. It was gross, so I tried a different flavor called Unicorn Poop. I know it sound discusting but, it was actually really good. When we left, I remember hearing my auntie say that there was going to be an upcoming Dababy concert in Omaha soon, and how she'd love to go see it. This was a great experience and I can't wait to visit Ted and Wally's again.
Angie Windsor
A coworker in KC recommended Ted & Wallys. I am so glad we came! If there is a line, Yes, it is worth it! There was a line, and it was absolutely worth it! We had Vanilla Bean, Dutch Chocolate, Tasty Good Salted Dark Chocolate Toffee(It is black!), and Fat Elvis ice cream (peanut butter, banana and bacon)! It is awesome! My husband has a new favorite with the Fat Elvis!
Update 2022 - My now 13 year old is the pickiest kid ever. His praise for the chocolate shake is the highest of any he has ever had. He has declared we will come here every time and wishes Ted and Wally's was near home! (KCMO)
Mr. Whiskers
Some of the best ice cream I've ever had. New and different flavors made at the store. There was a long line but it moved relatively quick. You can sample here so don't be afraid ask. Gladly would return here in the future.
Everything on the menu looking good is going to be the hardest decision you have to make here.
Jared Stremel
Great, fast, and friendly service even when there was a line out the door! I very much enjoyed the butter brickle ice cream n a waffle cone, and while I don't remember the flavor my wife had, I know she loved it! It is on the Omaha must try list for a reason!
Tanya P. (Ta)
Really good ice cream and unique flavors,but the line is super long. Seems like they are extremely busy everytime we go there
Jon
Caramel Oreo, Dutch chocolate, and cereal milk ice cream are all delicious. Very good ice cream
Tony Chavez
Great tasting waffle cone ice cream
Gavin Wigg
Awesome.... Amazing.... But.... The spoons are wimpy bendy little things! T&W, please throw a couple more cents into a better spoon!! Sigh
Stefanie Williamson
Yum! Yum! Yum!
We stopped here to top off our stomach tanks after gorging on sushi.
Totally awesome day date.
The selection was wonderful and I was so sad when my bowl was empty.
Relajado Savage
Always have a great variety of flavors and in my opinion the best ice cream in downtown omaha maybe the whole city.
Jennifer Theen
Holy moly! That was the most flavorful ice cream I’ve ever tasted! And the service was fast!!
Cat Apult
An absolute must if you are anywhere nearby craving something sweet. Their flavors are outstanding and always have a couple non-dairy options. Definitely an Omaha gem!
Raymond Kent
Good quality ice cream. The kids working there are very friendly and they give you plenty. Four stars only because it's a little pricey, but definitely worth a stop if you need an ice cream fix.
Carlos Gonzalez
Amazing homemade ice cream with a dash of amazing customer service! This visit was done during the evening in the week so the wait was very minimal and there was seating unlike the weekend. Just remember to ask if the popcorn is fresh! 😎 …
Shaun Sayres
Cute place, but not worth the price. The service is great and the menu has some character, but god is it expensive and just not worth the price. Their milkshakes are too thick and not very flavorful. The coffee float is good, but I don't understand why I'm paying almost 7 dollars for a small cup of coffee and a scoop of ice cream that has freezer burn. It we paid 6 or 7 dollars for both, I wouldn't care, but $15+ is absolutely outrageous and just not at all worth what you get, because no ice cream should be that price.
William Potter
Wonderful place to get fresh ice cream with unique flavors almost every day. We have been to both locations for many years now. It is one of our anniversary traditions.
Cody Kirkhart
Clove Orange was a really good flavor. Very rich cream. Lots of happy people inside.
Jake Farrell
Great ice cream, service could be friendlier. Almost felt like being there was an inconvenience.
Christopher Hotchkiss
They have Keto Sugar Free Ice Cream! It’s amazingly creamy and delicious!
Emily J
Ice cream is so good, service was excellent
Michael Bahlmann
Decent ice-cream. The big seller here is the crazy flavors. The quality wasn't the best, but the unique flavors is why you would come here. Personally I would rather go to somewhere with more "normal" flavors with a higher quality ice-cream. But it's still a good little store. Parking is a nightmare...
Tim Glazeski
Almost every time I am in the Old Market I end up there. Best ice cream you can get in town, maybe even in the world. I would eat it every day. I get samplers and try out whatever four flavors sound good as there is always something different on the menu. French toast? Peanut butter and jelly? Beer flavors? Always something crazy there and usually it is all good. So awesome.
Jared Barton
Very nice classic ice cream parlor. Ice cream is made as real as possible (few artificial ingredients, if any). Staff were very friendly and atmosphere was very welcoming.
Ice cream was good, very flavorful, unique texture and taste. Flavours are very inventive, from dark chocolate to corn to blue curacao.
Obviously a careful business who know what customers want in ice cream and it seems they've understood for a while. Definitely will be back.
Nate Youtzy
Always enjoy the fresh, homemade ice cream at Ted and Wallys. The fact that they make it themselves daily with new flavors constantly is really cool. If you are someone who likes trying new flavors of ice cream, then this is the place for you!
Lauren W
Truly this is more of a 4 star review, but I felt bad not giving them 5. The ice cream is delicious, but the line is a bit long. And their flavor choices are unique and creative, with a vegan choice even! However, I'm a craft ice cream gal and they only have 10 or so flavors, not the 20 or so I've come to expect out of shops like this one. The decorations are captivating and the ice cream was creamy and delicious so it's worth it in the end.
Mike Kotlarz
This ice cream shop is always busy, but they do a good job of moving people through quickly. They have a constantly changing array of custom flavors which are fantastic. I would give 5 stars if they cleaned tables and counters more frequently between guests. Overall one of Omaha's best ice cream shops!
Laura Rejent
Ted and Wally's was great. The service was excellent- they even let us bring our dog in the inside and eat at tables in the lobby! ( It was 90+ degrees out). The ice cream machines made noise- because they were actually making ice cream on site! That's something you don't find most places. The ice cream was delicious, smooth and creamy without too much added sweetness. My husband and I both had lemonade ice cream which was perfectly refreshing! We liked the place so much we stopped by the next day too. The staff was friendly and explained the whole ice cream making process to my husband. And the ice cream was made with all basic ingredients - NO High Fructose corn syrup or other additives.
Mitch Lee
This ice cream shop is both iconic and very, very good. The new flavors every day kept me coming back during my trip, and they are very good about letting you try out multiple flavors before you pick. Overall, a great local ice cream place at a very competitive price. This beats any other chain ice cream place hands down.
My only issue is that there seem to be some sanity issues among the servers (e.g. one server put ice cream from a cone that had too much back in to the ice cream container). Hopefully the owner(s) reads this review and addresses that side of things quickly.
Jacob Ciulla
They do their best with trying to keep the line moving. They may need another sign of the list of flavors, because many people don't see it until they get up to the counter, and by then it's too late to be moving quickly. I knew I wanted to taste test three and then decide. The flavors I tried were Kahlua, Vegan Root Beer, and White Chocolate Espresso. We decided to get a two scoop of Espresso and Kahlua. That want a good idea to mix, because they kinda blended as opposed to mixing and coming each other. The coffee flavor was very strong. Both were still good!
Marcus Gomez
It's always a great experience coming here. Although different during Covid times, we still felt comfortable ordering here. They were doing a great job making sure staff and patrons were safe. The ice cream selection is always unique and fun to explore.
ASHLEY
Great little place. They have crazy flavors that change all the time
Dallin Swiss
Excellent ice cream. My colleagues told me about this ice cream shop, Ted and Wally's, and said that it was some of the best homemade ice cream in all of America. I confess, it was really good. I had vanilla bean with Oreo topping. They had double dutch chocolate ice cream. Other flavors included cinnamon roll and butter cookie butter, strawberry rhubarb pie, and lots of other unique flavors. It's a fabulous outfit just across the street from the Hyatt Hotel.
Nali Yan
KETO New York Vanilla Malt is brilliant, I've ever had.
Staci Rogert
Loved my lemon flavored ice cream...
Starion Black
This is premium ice cream at a premium price. Just North of $5.00 for 2 scoops. We didn't think the flavors were strong enough..just personal preference. We liked the service, although it was very busy when we were there. Seating is limited, but many customers are, obviously, carry out.
Chloe Gonzales
Best ice cream in Omaha! As a lactose-intolerant person, I appreciate their commitment to having at least two vegan/dairy-free options per day. Their non-dairy offerings are just as unique and delicious as the rest of their flavors. An Omaha staple!
Nathan Taylor
I ordered two scoops from the menu. I was told they were almost out of my first choice but she would give me what they had but would I like to fill in with something else. I picked something and she went to scooping. However, she did not give me my first choice at all...
Chris Flamos
Kept hearing about how good the ice cream was before I visited the city. I usually order a vanilla milkshake to compare place to place and they didn't disappoint. Very cool atmosphere and love the homemade ice cream. I'll be stopping again next time I'm in town to try the unique flavors.
Marcus Carson
If ice cream is on your agenda while visiting Omaha. This is the place to stop at. Don't be discouraged by the line. The ice cream is amazing and the line goes fast. Also try being adventurous and try something new. I had a coconut fig cone that was really good!
Daniel Lachowitzer
The best selections of homemade ice I have ever had. They make the ice with the real old fashioned machines and the flavor is incredible. If your down town Omaha on hot day like today make sure you stop in. #delicious
Keller Davis
The best ice cream in Omaha! This place has some pretty awesome flavors that they switch up every day the ice cream is butter fat deliciousness and with having celiac I have not been sick once, just double check with staff so they can inform you on the gluten status per flavor. With that being said I highly recommend checking this place out!
Anne Chess
This is the best place in Omaha for vegan ice cream! It's delicious, creamy, and they have an interesting new flavor just about every day. They also offer espresso floats, which are phenomenal. Now that it's getting warm again, I'm looking forward to more trips to Ted & Wally's.
Daniel Willett
I really wanted to give a bad review because I figured there was no way the ice cream was worth the wait, but it's pretty good. Dutch Chocolate and Vanilla bean were amazing. I'd recommend staying away from the more "exotic" flavors.
Jeffrey Hamilton
Excellent ice cream, though heavy in emulsifiers to keep down the ice. It doesn't effect taste, but it does make it "stringy" like mozzarella. Good serving sizes and very interesting flavors. The store is well decorated. A thank you also to the owner explaining his "secret" to the interesting texture.
Briannan Sandau
My favorite hole in the wall, if you can call it that. The best fresh ice cream. The best staff. Always friendly. Flavors are creative and always something new to try and classic flavors at the ready.
Elizabeth Phelps
The ice cream was very tasty!
Joe W
Made fresh ice cream so no two batches are the same. A lively variety of fantastic flavors. When I was there, they had flavors including but not limited to praline coffee, cake 'n cream, Dutch chocolate, and peppermint (so delicious!)
Zack Wagner
The ice cream is absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly. On a Tuesday night in late fall, its freaking cold outside yet, this place is selling lots of ice cream. That says something about the product and the business. I had eggnog peppermint brownie and it was so good. I will be going back for ever.
Ariel Drasney
Everytime I go they have new and exciting flavors to try. The staff is ALWAYS friendly. Also they have vegan and keto options.
Christopher Petree
Typically always busy. Few places to sit. They have usually a couple options for those with dietary restrictions. They have a few traditional flavors. And the best part is they have some great weekly/daily flavors. Recently there were zucchini bread and banana walnut bread flavors. Both of which were amazing. Some of the best ice cream in Omaha, hands down. Worth it. Just not super easy to get in, get out, or sit down.
Joey Hansen
Ted and Wally’s is a must on your Omaha to-go list! They have some of the best ice cream in town with a fun and friendly environment. If you want a variety of flavors and specialties that often include local businesses, I would highly recommend you visit!
Anthony Dewstow
Very good Ice Cream.
Friendly staff.
The locals must love it because we went on a cold day and the place was still busy.
Melina Goedeker
Friendly staff willing to answer questions and give opinions on their every changing options.
Alissa Troidl
The blueberry crisp malt was so delicious just a bit too watered down for my liking. My husband's pandan malt was both wateringly tasty!
Roger Carrillo
Old fashioned ice cream in a variety of flavors. Watch it being made in vintage ice cream makers there in the store. The ice cream is creamy almost like custard with 20% butterfat. Locally owned, with only two stores in Omaha and near by Benson, Nebraska. A must visit if you really like ice cream.
shelby goodrum
Love this place! They make all ice cream in house and it's awesome. The selection changes daily and they offer really fun flavors. You can see the daily flavors on their FB page before you go. This place gets very busy late night with the bar crowd. Really cool place to take visitors from out of town.
Salim Parak
The ice cream is well made. It is made on site with premium ingredients. The price is expensive but the quality is very high. The building is very nice and you can see the ice makers in the front area. They sell some merchandise such as shirts. The flavours vary by the week.
Caitlin Brasel
Absolutely love this little chain! They have vegan and keto flavors that they switch out every day(or week, not 100 percent sure). It can have a long line though, so be prepared on their busy days! Totally worth it in my opinion
L.M. Cole
They have a great, unique selection of handmade ice creams that change daily and a good selection of hard to find sodas. The atmosphere is cozy and really feels like an old soda shop, but seating is extremely limited. Well worth a visit!
Jeff Mauk
Perfection - 1/2 scoop Rum Rasin in a sugar cone. Fantastic homemade 20% buttermilk ice cream.
Trevor J. Sandidge
Excellent Premium butter-cream ice cream! It's a personal favorite of mine and the guests that visit. Location could improve as you have to stand and wait outside just to get inside.
Robert Lawrence
Very good, made in house, ice cream. Original favors can be fun to try. High fat content in their cream is a unique experience. If you don't see something you like, come back another time as the flavors are always rotating to something new.
Kevin Girouex
I mean, it’s the best ice cream in the area. It’s also nice they offer keto style ice cream.
Michael Willett
I hot a child size hot fudge sundae and my wife hot a one scoop raspberry sundae. The ice cream was delightful. We ordered a latte each and we think the person that made it was new to making lattes, but overall it was very good.
Sydney Goldberg
It was good, homemade ice cream. However, I wasn't overly impressed by the flavors. The line appeared really long but moved quickly. There wasn't much room inside for seating, which way fine because it was a nice night.
Jorge Moreno
Always love coming here with my wife on our little adventure dates
Christopher Weinland
Best ice cream place in Omaha. They always have new stuff on the menu every time I'm in. There are a few classics but generally most of the menu is novel and full of tasty options. They're not afraid to experiment with new stuff and generally the experiments go over really well.
Barbara Mendez
Love this place. Best flavors. They even have diabetes options that are full of flavor and not also the same old ones. We have been taking our kids here since 2000, now our Grandchildren are enjoying it. Great place with great prices to make unforgettable memories...
Kevin Laurenti
Extremely popular, especially weekend evenings and nights, with the line pretty consistently out the door. For a good reason, though: the ice cream is great, locally made, and always with fun flavors like Star Crunch or Thin Mint, or vegan options. They also take Apple/Google Pay.
Frumpled Biscuit
Great place to get all sorts of interesting ice cream flavors in various forms. The flavors are always on rotation, ranging from variations on the common and familiar to exotic and far-fetched flavors you won't find anywhere else. This is an iconic old market shop that's def worth a visit. Everything is spot on except the restrooms here.
Alexandra Armstrong
This place has been busy upon both visits. They use local ingredients and make a butter fat ice cream. They have a wide array of interesting rotating and seasonal flavors as well as a keto option. The coffee ice cream by far has been the crowd favorite.
Steve Killpack
A picture says it all. When you have a line at 9:23 pm for ice cream, you know it has to be great! Top 3 ice cream joints in the country! If you love ice cream, you will love Ted and Wallys!
Daniel Vanderpool
Great service and usually enjoy their flavors! But when I visited recently, I couldn't hardly find a unique or specialty flavor that I enjoyed, and they were also sold out of a couple flavors including pumpkin (which I do like) -- so a little disappointing. I'm sure I'll have a better experience next time!
Chris Mitzel
Amazing place. Super busy, but the line moves fast because these people know what they are doing. Ice cream is so good. Definitely a must try
Travis Gaines
They've got the story, the location, the reviews, and the crowd to make you think you are getting ready to eat the best ice-cream you've ever had, but in my opinion don't have the developed flavors to support the hype. My group purchased Vanilla Bean, Strawberry Cake Mix, German Raspberry & Blackberry (not sure I have this name correct), & No-Sugar Added Keto Ginger Brandy, and sampled Buttermint. We ate them family style. All of the flavors were very muted. The most pronounced flavor that came through in all of the selections except one was the butterfat / cream. Its a great base to work with, but should it be the most dominant flavor? The Keto Ginger Brandy was the exception and my favorite from our batch. In my one experience with Ted & Wally's, I was underwhelmed. I love the idea and story, and if Ted or Wally are listening, I would encourage them to develop their flavors.
A C
They always have long lines. When they serve you, they don't rush you. It's quality over quantity there. Definitely a good family place. Lots of flavours to try.
Kelli Brooker
I liked the Dutch chocolate ice cream.
Allen Macmillan
It is snowing in mid April but there is still a line for ice cream. They make their own here. The flavors change every day. If you want boring flavors go somewhere else. This is 14% butterfat gold so enjoy responsibly .
Dylan Damme
I went to Ted & Wally's because I was headed this way on vacation and it was recommended to me. I thought that the customer service was great and I was even more impressed by how good the ice cream was. I had a waffle cone with dutch chocolate and vanilla bean ice cream and i enjoyed every second of it. I will definitely come back the next time we head this way.
Brian C
Phenomenal homemade style ice cream. Not super cheap, but a great value for what you get. Went here with a group of friends as an alternative to going to a bar with the rest of our group and thoroughly enjoyed it. Plenty of booth space to sit in.
Will Johnston
Their ice cream is so good. It's an adventure just picking out your selection. They have variety of very creative flavors. You get a huge amount of ice cream in a single scoop. Pulled off the interstate just to get ice cream.
Guadalupe Guzman
I love this place for their vanilla bean ice cream but I’m lactose intolerant:( their vegan ice cream usually just taste like coconut which is a bummer. I wish they would use almond or oat milk instead!!
Rey
The ice cream is always fantastic! Strange, new, classic, and exciting flavors everyday. Now they have low carb/sugar ice cream! The only thing I wish they had is delivery!
Jessica D
I absolutely love Ted and Wally's! Usually when I get there the line is hanging out past the door and into the parking lot. The staff are friendly and the ice cream is delicious. My family of eight enjoy going there every so often...we use the time for catch up. Worth the wait!
S Local
I love the inventive flavors at Ted & Wally’s. I’ve had the opportunity to try ice cream I never, ever would have experienced otherwise. My husband and I go pretty often and there have only been a couple of times where I couldn’t find something that appealed to me on the menu (in which case vanilla is a solid choice).
Recently, they’ve added a regular rotation of paleo and keto ice creams, and I can’t wait to try them all. The cinnamon one was awesome. I also love their vegan ice cream, which has a coconut milk base.
Miscellaneous flavors I can recall among probably the 75 or more we’ve tried and loved over the years include: cucumber sandwich cookie, fluffy lime salad, strawberry basil, black sesame, vegan coconut carob chip, ladybug rose, dark chocolate halva, cardamom and avocado pear.
And when I haven't felt like ice cream, I've gotten a few decent cups of coffee here as well.
Kelsey Poulsen
Always a huge variety of flavors. Took my daughters for the 1st time tonight, they had strawberry and vanilla, and I had the black bottom banana nut bread, by far one of my favorite flavors to date! So good!
LauraLee Vande Werken
The ice cream was good (homemade)but a 2-scoop sundae looked like one scoop. The ice cream didn't even reach the rim of the small cup. It was very high priced for a milkshake (medium) and my hot fudge and strawberry sundae-$18.31 which included a $2.79 tip.
Paige Mueller
Going in i knew there wouldn’t be many gluten free options for celiac disease but i was hoping the employees would know exactly which ones have gluten in them. When i asked the employee which ones i could have she said “Um i think just chocolate and vanilla” and when asked about toppings she had to ask the manager and the manager didn’t even know. And when i asked her kindly to ask about the marshmallow topping she “said i don’t know but it’s almost out anyway”
Sam simmons
Good ice cream but can be a little over priced and popular times mean extremely long lines. Not a lot of parking.
Marilyn Barnes
How can you not love their ice cream? With so many flavors and sugarfree or vegan options offered frequently too. It is a "must" stop for our family. Pricey but a great treat.
Kristianne Swanson
Delicious, eclectic flavor combinations! See the ice cream churned on site, too.
JEFF PETERS
What can you say about handmade ice cream in 100 plus year old churn? Well, if you're talking about Ted and Wally's ice cream parlor in the Old Market , would you can say is that "It's wonderful."
You make old fashioned ice cream that is simply a delight. There many times in the spring and summer when the line stretches into the parking lot. There is another ice cream store across the street. They don't wait in a big line there while Ted and Wally's has customers are pouring out the door.
They have all your traditional flavors like chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. They make assorted flavors on limited time basis. I'll make some gelatos. And they even make some low calorie versions which you would not be able to tell is lighter and sugar.
Ted and Wally's is an Omaha institution and cherished.
Jerome Binsley
Holy cow this place was delicious. Had their take on Mexican chocolate and they nailed it. The Guinness could have been more flavorful, but that's probably because I paired it with an ice cream that packed so much flavor.
Kira Rogness
I love that they have daily special flavors, so that each visit feels brand new! I tried their sesame seed flavor and lemongrass panacotta flavor together and it was heaven! The ladies at the counter were quick and amazing at their jobs!!! I can't wait to visit throughout the summer!!!!!!
Letty Smith
Delicious ever rotating flavors. Everyday it's different. Best selection of vegan flavors. They post their menus of their benson and old market flavors on their facebook site. And...drum roll please....right now they deliver!
Jarod Fisher
If you want ice cream and you live on Earth, this the best place to satisfy your craving. I've heard other ice cream shops exist, but I've also heard that humans put a man on the Moon. Who would believe such outlandish lies?! There's only one place to get ice cream and it ain't on the Moon.
Ryan Whiteley
Excellent ice cream. Very cool atmosphere. Reasonably priced. A lot of odd flavors of ice cream, but that is what they are known for. I wish they had a few flavors every time that you could count on being there.
Meagan Threlkeld
Absolutely amazing ice cream! It is unlike anything else. We also came during national breastfeeding month and they were donating a portion of profits to the Omaha Le Leche League!
Aaron Wiese
One of the high points of Omaha. The ice cream's texture must be experienced to be believed - rich, decadent, and smooth. On top of that, the flavor mix is inventive and ever-changing. This place rocks.
Sarah Calderón
My family absolutely loves this place. They always have some sort of traditional flavor and then a selection of flavors for the more adventurous eater. Even in winter there are people in and out. Don't be intimidated if you see a line in the summer because it is quick moving and absolutely worth the wait.
Steph
Delish! Had the baklava and caramel latte flavors; creamy and fully of flavor.
Andrew Walters
Excellent ice cream! I had a chocolate shake and it was very creamy, and smooth. Absolutely delicious. I just wish I hadn’t eaten so much food before getting the ice cream!
Wendy Dunning
The Willy Wonka of ice cream! We stop here every time we are in Omaha or anytime we are driving through Omaha. We cannot get enough of all the different flavors that are offered. You cannot go wrong with 2 scoops and a waffle cone. 100% worth the wait.
Matt Yearian
Best Ice Cream in town! The ice cream here is homemade a different selection of flavors daily. Prices are pretty standard for ice cream and the service is always very good with happy and energetic people behind the counter. Highly recommend!
Andrew Coffman
How delicious is Ted and Wally's ice cream? I may have flown to Omaha one time for the sole purpose of satisfying a craving of their sweet treats. The rich, creamy, thick ice cream is the best I have tasted and worth a stop whenever I am in the area. Cheers!
Tim Krayer
Always busy but worth the wait. Unique, constantly rotating flavors that you won't find anywhere else. Dare yourself to go beyond chocolate or vanilla and try something you can't get anywhere else. It might be hard to snag a table, but there's plenty of space to hang out outside as well.
Rebekah Reighard
Very impressed with the selection they had. Definitely worth the 20 min wait in line!!!
Erin Elseroad
The line moved faster than I expected. Great ice cream with unique flavors!
Ann Meyer
Always great ice cream. Fun flavors and traditional ones too!
Alexander Dahlquist
You won't find a creamier ice cream in Omaha. They're not afraid to experiment. While not every flavor is a hit, I certainly have ones I look out for.
Michael s
This place was awesome, the ice cream was excellent! You get to watch them make it the old school way and taste it the old school way. High fructose corn syrup need not apply. Thanks for a taste from the past that shouldn't be so. They are also dog friendly. Thanks,
Derek Young
Rich and delicious. Jam packed with flavor without being overly sweet. Quality ingredients. We will definitely return next time we’re in Omaha.
Amina Mir
Some of the flavors of the day and disappointing but the Nutella Oreo is my fav! Cant go wrong with it.
Alex Gac
Exceptionally creative flavors. I was curious how they made a strawberry cheesecake flavor once, and they answered "we take a strawberry cheesecake and put it into the ice cream while it's being mixed." Makes sense.
Big windows make it easy to see if there's much of a line or not. When the line is long, it can take a while (5-10 mins) to get through.
Corey Tumpkin
Different flavors every day is awesome, but occasionally there might not be anything you're interested in. Wish they had a website to check before coming in, but the quality of the ice cream and service is awesome so don't hesitate to try it out!
Taylor Clinch
Totally rockin old fashion ice cream shop. They have creative flavors that include a spicy blend and avocado from time to time. Worth the stop in if you're in town. They are a long time tradition in Omaha right down town.
Rebecca Hamel
The ice cream was good, but I only saw maybe 2 flavors on the menu that were different than most ice cream shops. I thought the ice cream was decent but it would be nice to have a few more selections of unique flavors.
Kristina
Their ice cream is amazing! Real authentic homemade taste. I recommend everyone go here when they have a taste for a cool sweet treat.
T
First time here and it was packed, I see why tho. The ice cream was delicious!
David Rubis
Absolutely the best ice cream I have every eaten. My only complaint is that the seating area is never kept particularly clean and there is often a sewer-like smell.
Frankie C
Meh...ordered 3 sundaes, 3 scoops each, received different cup sizes. Ice cream is expensive, if supporting local businesses is important then recommend this place. If out just for ice cream, head to cold stone or try something new.
Cass Dunham
The Butterum Coffee ice cream was amazing! It was a nice cool treat on a very hot day. I would highly recommend giving it a try! I think the flavors change daily.
Dave Parrish
I love Ted And Wally's! They always have very original flavors available.
Best time to go is around Christmas. They have two amazing, amazing, amazing flavors: Eggnog, and Christmas Cookie (which is literally ice cream with iced sugar cookies smashed into it).
Cassy Otto
Always super yummy ice cream! They also always have a vegan ice cream available. I like trying their fun unique flavors but their chocolate is always a good choice!
Steve Gallucci
Ice cream was great. Vegan ice cream some of the best I had ever. I will return for that and I even wait on the long summer line for it. I recommend but be prepared for the line, not because service is poor but rather because everyone wants this ice cream.
Don Moody
I don't have to tell you this do I? Best ice cream in Omaha. Worth the stop when you are nearby.
Crystal Leslie
The staff here is very quick, friendly and efficient. The ice cream is really yummy, and they have some fun unique flavors. My baby loved it!!
Vikram K
Best Home made local Ice Cream. My favorite place. I have never seen these so many varieties of ice creams with Innovative flavors. you must go if not tried yet.
Kevin McGree
ice cream institution in Omaha, my daughter can't get within a mile of this place without asking to go over and watch them make ice cream and have a cone. fanastic array of flavors, and late night bar scene the staff does a fantastic job with drunk people looking for ice cream.
Zachary Frieben
Back in 2015, went on an awesome family vacation in the west. This Omaha was a halfway stop on our way to Colorado. While here, we stopped by Ted and Wally's. I got the artichoke and cream cheese ice cream, mostly just to say I had it. Call me insane but that is some killer ice cream!
Kathy Konopik
Ted and Wally's was a delightful experience except for the very long line on Sat. The ice cream quality is the best. I went to another very small ice cream parlor hailed as the best in Omaha. There is no parking there
Ted and Wally's has lots of downtown parking so it's easy to find a place even on a busy Saturday
kerry Lyste
The licorice ice cream was fantastic!
Austin T
One of the best vanilla malts I have ever had!
Amir Dekel
Amazing old-style churned ice cream.
Jacob Bandy
Usually a line once you get in this extremely popular ice cream shop. But their house made ice cream can not be beat. Employees are super friendly. This is a must stop place in the old market!!
BK 526
Ice cream was great. Tried a vanilla bean mix-in with Reese's Peanut Butter cup. They were more than willing to give as many samples as we were wanting to try.
Anthony Trinh
Great shop with amazing malts. They had durian flavored ice cream for the day which I wish I had but I don't trust Nebraska to have durian so I declined. Nice spot to visit after dinner.
Jordan Marsh
The ice cream is good, but if you’re going for a different flavor I’d try it first to make sure you’ll like it.
Hannah Winchell
Their flavors are changing every day and they make the ice cream right in front of you. Plus it's got a sweet vintage, only-in-omaha vibe. Love it
Flight attendant @hannahonthefly on Instagram!📸🌻 …
Hunter Pokorney
TED AND WALLYS IS AWESOME! I can't believe there are people who don't like it. I go there every time we go to Omaha and there is always a flavor to try. My favorite is the salty seahorse because its AWESOME! You should get that flavor if you're there. You won't be disappointed.
Renee Tucker
never disappointed. the kids love the Dutch chocolate and my husband and I love trying the daily flavors. his favorite is the old resputin and I love the sleepy sheep! always a long line though but worth the wait
Jeff Steinmiller
Iconic ice cream in the popular Old Market area of downtown Omaha. Excellent ice cream with a good selection of flavors including Paleo, keto, vegan, and no sugar added options. Always busy but the line moves quickly. Cozy outdoor area with a few bences and chairs. Centrally located to every corner of Old Market.
LaHala Cunningham
Great place to go for your ice cream fix. The variety of flavors will leave everyone with a smile. Quick service. Waffle cones were amazing. Go and enjoy.
Jessica Medlin
Nice staff! Long line but it moved quickly. Glad I tried it but nothing spectacular. The ice cream has a different sticky texture that was interesting. Good flavor but again nothing spectacular.
Francis Angelo Hauptman
I don't know how I have lived in Omaha for 27 years and I've never heard of this place until recently but it was amazing homemade ice cream I really loved their peanut butter ice cream it is my new favorite just too bad my daughter didn't like the actual vanilla bean flavored ice cream she prefers French vanilla from the store which is garbage if you haven't tried their ice cream make sure you do. It's a staple of Omaha
Amanda Kuehmichel
The vanilla espresso was amazing!
Melissa Ready
Long line, but it moved quickly. Staff was very friendly and ice cream was delicious :)
Jamie Johnson
Always love going here. At 1st we were so disappointed they had only 6 flavors left and they seemed like weird ones so we decided to leave our comfort zone tried something different and they were amazing!! Staff is always sweet too.
ryan fields
If you love ice cream then you'll love Ted & Wally's. If I wasn't lactose intolerant then I would probably be there every other day. Unfortunately, I can only eat ice cream a couple times a year, but I always go to Ted & Wally's when I do!
Dan D
The best ice cream. True homemade, rich flavor and tasty. When I am in Omaha, this is a must have...sometimes twice a day. The staff is also generally quite friendly.
Mr41297
Ted & Wally's Old Market gets a lot of walk-in traffic. I mean LOTS. Expect a wait. The ice cream is okay, but I think what really makes the place work is the friendly staff and the atmosphere. Family friendly but a little pricy because the ice cream is made in house.
Lainey M
The ice cream was delicious. Just two tables were occupied inside the store, but all of them were grimy and sticky, as was the floor.
Sandra Vargas
Second time here. Does not disappoint. Creamy delicious ice cream.
mindy kearns
What a great ice cream shop! Outstanding ice cream. Worth the wait in the long line each night. Love the atmosphere at the Old Market in Omaha.
Robert Randall
Strawberry shortcake sundae & Mixin with oreo and cashews were great, of course. Parking seemed rather easy as the meters don't bite on the weekend. I'll probably just get a banana split next time, and eat half the ice cream, and call it a smart diet decision because of the fruit.
Michael Gasman
Great flavors and wonderful taste. Very interesting to see the old churners still being used. It is difficult to see the ice cream the wat the counter and freezers are set up...but they encourage tastes!

Ted and Wally's management and staff went above and beyond for my daughter's 6th birthday gathering this Memorial Day weekend.
They were patient and empathetic to my son's food allergies, for starters.
Also, they kindly wrote a birthday message to my birthday to my daughter on the flavor board, which she loved.
Some time us we Moms are down to the wire with birthday party prep and can be a little excessive with our requests, but they made me feel like I wasn't a bother at all! I so appreciated this!
Lynn R
Great ice cream, however, expensive and not pleasant watching staff sample ice cream continuously during the 15 min we were there.
Derek Moody
A great experience. Went with my Father as I visited from Ashland Oregon. So yummy!! Got to watch them make ice cream. A good time. Three thumbs up!
Tena Storgaard
Good ice cream place, but long lines to get icecream. The customers are very friendly, so that made the wait times a little more bearable. The ice cream was just okay. The first time I was there was better because it wasn't so busy
Cat Morley
This is the best ice cream parlour in the world. Open nice and late, the staff are super friendly and the flavours are always inventive and delicious! They do great vegan options too.
Cory Bennett
Ok ice cream but super friendly staff. Some of the flavors we had were ok and others were lacking. With that said, they are located in a prime area and are worth the stop if you are looking for a cool sweet treat.
Denae Love
Visiting from Arizona and my friend said to check this place out.
This place makes amazing ice cream. My favorite is mint chip and I really enjoyed trying it.
Everyone was friendly and And helpful.
Jesse Kapp
I had strawberry nerds and Roy Rogers sorbet, both unique flavors that were incredible. Locally sourced ingredients made for great ice cream.
Jon Jang
Quality of ice cream here is amazing. They have crazy flavor choices too if your feeling like trying something different.
Byron Swalm
Solid old school ice cream, very cool to see the ancient churns making old fashioned ice cream. The ice cream itself is OK but not great, more of an experience than a place for great ice cream. Very cool for kids.
James Dorsey
Greatest ice cream and always interesting flavor combinations
Nupur Dhoot
A good ice cream place in downtown. The staff helps decide which flavor of ice cream when confused. The ice cream is creamy and perfect
Emily Miron
20% butter fat - REAL ICE CREAM 🍦 🍨
I had the almond butter oreo and would definitely recommend it to anyone. They also had a blueberry keto option and a vegan option. …
Janette Porter
Best little ice cream shop. We had such a wonderful time. The flavors were delicious. Serving sizes are generous.
Miranda Major
Tried a new flavour, Mango Lassi, and our eas excellent! Took my kid, and he enjoyed the Dutch chocolate and a chocolate biscotti. Very pleased.
Crystal Ridder
Real ice cream made on site. It was rich & creamy. Only limited flavors available. A little pricey but worth it. Very small. Some outside seating. Busy on weekends
Kiel Ruiz
Really good ice cream but definately premium pricing. We didn't stay as we had somewhere else to be, but the atmosphere was excellent and everyone that was working was very helpful and attentive. I will deffinately be back!
Mark Mitchell
Best ice cream in Omaha, hands down!
** Update **
Still best..
Ronald Thomson
When I was visiting Omaha we stopped in and it was amazing! Not just the ice cream but the attitude of the staff was great. They actually look like they enjoy themselves the!
Luhiehu Pedro
Best ice cream ever!
Micky Kim
I like their ice cream as they give good portions and their flavors taste great! Only drawback is that they recently increased their prices so it's a bit more expensive to come here
Christina Strong
Busy place because the ice cream is amazing! Featured flavors change frequently. Head in and try them all!
Marissa Cornish
If you go downtown make sure you have time to stop here! Delicious ice cream and a good variety of flavors! We always stop here when we come to Omaha!
Rachel Swartz
This is a must when you are in Omaha. Be prepared to stand in line for a few minutes as they are very busy. Even with the non-stop flow of customers, the staff is extremely friendly and quick. Also a lot of their ingredients are local and they donate profits to charity.
Misha N
My husband and I frequent this place often. Sometimes they have weird flavors like artichoke cream cheese or jalapeno cream cheese but if you have Ted & Wally's on a Salty Seahorse (a salty icecream with oreos) night prepare to have your mind blown!!! Salty Seahorse is my ultimate favorite ice cream ever! Another notable flavor is Chocolate in My Beard for the chocolate coconut lovers!!! The only reason I am giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is because they tend to post their flavors on their Facebook page at the beginning of the day and by the end of the day they are all out of the delicious-sounding flavors!
E Cheng
Friendly staff.
Coffee ice cream was good, flavorful and creamy, not too sweet.
Aranviaberry - was good, couldn't quite taste the flavor.
Overall good. Would go again.
Ryan Garnett
Their "keto" ice cream seemed more like low fat ice cream which is not keto at all. They didnt give me the pecan mix-in that I asked for, they just threw it in the cone. Other than that it was good.
Mark Fredrickson
My initial thought was they are pricey but excellent. But you are getting a premium product made the old fashioned way. We like to try their new flavors. Give them a try for a real treat.
sue geer
Amazing as always! Loved, loved the Blueberry/Almond keto 😋 🤤😍 Thank you for what you do! …
Agelessorca
The ice cream is delicious. It's taste is different from what I usually know but it's a good different.
Joshua Monroe
The ice cream here is excellent. I always get whatever the weird daily thing is because I love to be surprised. I've never been disappointed.
Brenda Dolinski
Always are go to while we are in downtown Omaha. LOVE the crazy flavors. It may look like a super long line but the wait isn't bad and the staff keeps it moving!
P Limbach
I love this place, it is so worth the wait in line. They have many different choices of homemade icecream, different types of cones, and also shakes, malts, and sundaes.
Daniel Everson
Great customer service and great food. They made a chocolate brownie malt concoction that was amazing. I would definitely come back here
శివ Ch
Very good ice cream 🍦! …
Brian Fox
Long line... duh cause the ice cream is awesome. So worth the wait but plan for it so your not disappointed and in a rush. A must do when visiting Omaha.
Brent Wolfe
Best real ice cream experience in the city. Unique flavor options available along with a few traditional as well. Must have ice cream!
Janaka Abeywardhana
Awesome ice cream. For the last week I've been in a room overlooking this place, from the afternoon way into the evening, quite often there is a queue out of the door. It's that popular.
anthony bennett
Great, fun atmosphere. Omaha staple, definitely stop by if you're in the area, phosphate sodas are good if you're not a fan of ice cream too
Alexander Taylor
First time here w my oldest, it’s pretty good.
Brad Conklin
I absolutely love the old fashion ice cream! They have two machines right out in the open that makes the ice cream for you to see while you enjoy your favorite flavor!
Deb Reno
Quirky & delicious! Ted & wally's is ALWAYS crowded because the ice cream is SO delicious, but the service is fast & friendly. Do not make the mistake of visiting Omaha without visiting one of Ted & Wally's two locations!
Corinne Meier
Great specialty flavors and fantastic service. Love watching the machines make the ice cream while you wait. Fun space for an ice cream shop.
Hanna Ingraham
Best ice cream in town. They have new and creative flavors all the time. I've never tried a flavor I didn't love.
Jamie Gallea
Great ice cream choices. I've been going here for over 20 years. Always new flavors

Fantastic home made ice cream and gelato. Wide variety, very popular. Also love the malts here. Often have to wait in line in the summer evenings.
jovanie N
Cinnamon ice cream is the absolute best!
Barbara Favara
Delicious, homemade ice cream but the to-go boxes leak and the last time we were there they had really small uncomfortable chairs to sit in but overall a great place. Friendly staff, too.
Dana Miler
Always has great flavor of home made ice cream. If you get there at the right time you can watch them make the ice cream!
Corey Jones
Best icecream in town. Flavors change every day so it can be a miss because of that but that also makes the experience different every time.
Savario Wohlgemuth
Truly a unique experience. In-house made icecream in original White Mountain ice cream makers. Delicious!
Luke Kastrup
Had Ted & Wally's for the first time today and it was Amazing! The Carrot Cake shake was the best shake I've ever had ever. Nicely done T &W.
Connie Nichols
The coconut mousse ice cream was delicious and creamy. My friend tried the ice cream with grape nuts mixed in and wasn't as impressed
Jiame Salazar
Wonderful lil' ice cream shop. Great service. Clean environment. Friendly customer service. Needs outside seating..
big red allen
lots of flavors to choose from clean establishment and very helpful staff we will be coming here for years to come!!

Good ice cream, but make sure they understand what you want. I ordered vanilla bean and got Dutch chocolate instead. It was still good though.
Jason Vandergriff
Wow! This place is absolutely amazing! Old school style ice cream churned in thier original churns, with a twist on new amazing flavors! This place needs to be a National icon!
Daniel James
The flavor here is mind bending. How you make ice cream taste like grape soda is beyond me. We have to stop here every night we are in Omaha.
J.D. Miller (Omaha)
Always popular place. Can't remember the last time we were in there and it wasn't crowded.
Great ice cream. Probably a little spendy, but who cares! It's worth it.
Jessica Engel
Always a local favorite with very original ice cream ideas. They post their menu every day via social media so you can see the flavors every day.
Daniel Morrow
Ted & Wally's was awesome. An old fashioned ice cream parlor feel and great tasting ice cream led to an excellent stop for the family on our trip.
Naval Shah
Excellent ice cream. They have floats, sundaes, and shakes too. Classic vibe indoors.
Lei mz
The menu wasn't clear. I ordered a banana split (from the sundae side of the menu) so naturally, I thought it was gonna be a sundae but I got a regular banana split
.. it was ok.
Enzo Chiapet
Simply amazing home-made ice-cream. Had the "Roasted Sweet Corn"; who would've thought it would be awesome as ice-cream?! Can't wait to go back.
Cody Moninger
This is some super rich ice cream. Huge line when we went (Saturday evening), but well worth the wait. Try it, you'll like it.
Zach Devine
Best ice cream in Omaha. The flavors are unique. Mr. Cigar was still one of my favorites.
Desiree Miklus
I've been here twice now and have had amazing ice cream and service both times. Super delicious.
Michele Tufty
1sr time here. Had the keto Irish coffee scoop as well as vanilla bean......so good. The team behind the counter are friendly and very patient.

Riley Fade
Always have crazy new flavors. Ice creams pretty good. Service is good
Jeff B.
Been here a few times and each visit I have always enjoyed myself and all the wonderful flavors they offer. Truly delicious.
Randal Miller
Best ice cream in Omaha hands down.always something strange to try and always good.my last visit I tried one called Chinese 5 spice if you are familiar with what that is you would be surprised to find it in ice cream.but it was amazing.my advice if it sounds weird try it they have never done me wrong.all the ice cream is made right out front in these large old times machines in big vats of ice the ice cream you are eaten was probably made that morning
Mark Boyce
Attentive workers, amazing and unique flavors. Worth the stop.
Isaac Ortega
I love this place! However, near they end of the day they sometimes run out of the popular flavors. It's fun to grab a cone and walk around the Old Market!
Shona Hargens
Cost more than it's worth. Neat downtown experience, but the ice cream was not the best. they do have vegan ice cream so that is a plus.
Danielle Forbes
Delicious, everything was homemade! Though my four year old dropped his ice cream on the ground.... Talk about a double melt down 🤪 …
Keith Brown
A unique place in a unique place ( Old Market ). The ice cream -- ooh la laa -- nice variety, wonderful taste, little pricey but so is a Mercedes.
Chris McQueen
Nice big place right downtown. Easy to grab a treat before heading to a show or great place for a snack after dinner out. Service was fast, plenty of people to help and good attitudes.
Ryuuie Ryuu
I love this ice cream shop much more than the other generic chains around town. It always has flavorful, inexpensive ice cream and it's local as well!
Mike Kumm
Awesome atmosphere. Quite a bit of different flavors that I haven't heard of before. Great ice cream!
J Y
Nothing is better than homemade from scratch ice cream. The sweetness is just perfect and you can’t beat the creamy taste of it.
Matt Croy (Wolfie)
Always superior service and cleanliness. Definitely a cant miss stop for some of the best ice cream in omaha.
Carolina Alas
They have dairy-free flavors! This place has a great, friendly environment and the ice cream tastes delicious.
Dale Eesley
We took 24 students there and of course the ice cream was delicious! One of the owners spoke to the students about what it is like to run an ice cream shop.
K.M. Gilreath
Because of all the great ice cream choices and even though they have a lot of costumers they still go fast and easy. Plus their ice cream is delicious.
Matt Fiedler (Matt F)
I had the Butter Brickle in a waffle cone. Some of the best ice cream you will have. It's made fresh daily.
Jose J Flores
Food and Service was FANTASTICO!!! Waitress Abigail was very friendly and professional!!! Libations were fun and exciting!!!

Always awesome! Inventive flavors, but have to get Dutch chocolate at least half the time, it is so good!

Not only is the ice cream superb, but they offer keto, dairy-free and vegan options also that are just as tasty!
Tashena Gipson
The Dutch chocolate was so creamy and delicious! Oreo Mint is delicious!

Best ice cream around!! We did have to wait in line but they work quickly and keep people moving. It is worth the wait!
Jaylen Tutt
Service was great ice cream was ok but I don't think it's worth the price. Probably will come back though because it wasn't terrible.
Manny Martinez Bustamante
Amazing ice cream, don't be afraid to try odd flavors because you might like them :)
Bob Xziang
Good homemade ice cream and hasn't change much minus locations since it has been downtown. Expect long lines on popular days/evenings.
