Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"East end is definitely they best icecream stand in our area. The service is always great and the icecream is top tier. They also have the best pizza. I highly recommend choosing east end on a hot summers day."
"Not your average ice cream place ! Lots of variety, including unique pairings to boot .. fantastic food as well ! Clean facilities, pet friendly with shaded outside seating served by well trained friendly staff this is a must stop for anyone that wants fabulous treats !!"
"Update 4/24: First visit of the season. Hard dipped ice cream was not hard as it has been in the past. It was formed but definitely not hard and the taste seemed a bit different. Our family each has a favorite but be sure not to miss their banana split in the cup, turtle sundae, and strawberry shortcake! September brings a favorite flavor of pumpkin! New this year is the ability to pay with plastic for a 3% additional charge if cash if not in your pocket."
"Get ready for a flavor explosion at East End Double Dip! Dive into the local sensation that's serving up iconic American-style ice cream and pizza Stromboli. The moose track ice cream is a must-try, drawing crowds with its irresistible charm. Picture this: a lively neighborhood scene, especially in the summer heat, where you might just face a 20-minute wait—but hey, that's part of the thrill! The vibe is electric with a 9/10, and the food? Simply top-notch at 9/10. Service might drag a bit at 7/10 during peak hours, but hey, that's to be expected. Value hits the mark at 8/10, making it a solid choice. Tourists flock here, but locals know the score. If you're in town, East End Double Dip's calling your name. I will be back!"
"Have always loved coming here. Tonight me and the little ordered a 1 topping half pepperoni half sausage with extra sauce and a side of Cheese Bread. Friendly staff and great food. And now accepting Debit and Credit Cards! Will be a change for all. It has always been a cash only place. Tonight I scraped up the last $2.80 in change so we could add the bread. Went on and gave him the change. Saw the big ole antique cash register was gone and new tablets in place. It will be missed in the Pizza Parlor for sure. We moved to AL in 2017 and moved back to Peru in 2021. Each fall I would order up 10 take and bakes in October to take back to last the winter. This and our hot dog stand were the only two places we missed while we were away! 50 years in business this year! Keep up the awesome work and food! Always worth the drive from anywhere."
"This is a great place for ice cream. This is a place my wife and her family have adored for many years and they have me hooked also! The soft serve ice cream is excellent here! My wife love their Stromboli’s which I failed to get a picture off. Whenever we are close to Peru we try and stop in."
"East End Double Dip has always been an amazing place for ice cream and pizza. I’ve enjoyed great treats and did at reasonable prices since I was a child."
"We love this place! The ice cream is amazing, and we can't get enough of their pizza. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality you get. Every time we go, the customer service is top-notch, and the seating is very comfortable. A perfect spot for a delicious and affordable treat!"
