Custard Cup is one of the staples of things to try in Champaign, IL. As a native Champurbanian, I awaited Custard Cup's re-opening with glee along with everyone else in the town and packed into their over-crowded lobby along with everyone else to get me a taste of their creamy goodness. Everyone in Champaign knows Custard Cup.
They have about a billion different ways to get ice cream, their menu is gigantic.
I usually just stick with the Snowstorms and I have never been disappointed. You can definitely taste the difference of custard from regular ice cream and it is simply delicious.
What I remember is that the prices were always pretty reasonable, but I don't know what they're like now. I heard that the sizes of the cups went down too, which is always sad to hear. :o(
The service here is great too. All the people who work there are awesome, fast and efficient. It's all teenagers, but they all seem to care about their job and really like ice cream. haha
They also have a crapload of parking, which is awesome. And outdoor seating with umbrellas!
This place gets amazing business for being SO OLD and also not having a website.
I only wish I could go here more often, but I only come back to visit at Christmas and it's always closed then. :o( Stupid Illinois and their winters that actually get really, really cold.
