American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.

Lemon strawberry twist was the best. They only accept cash, but the softies were very good.

The soft serve ice cream is delicious! I usually want ice cream mixed with more chocolate items, but the soft serve is enough for me here. Cash only. Parking can be challenging and no indoor seating. Ordering at the window or drive thru only.

Geneβs is one of my all time favorites for soft serve. I usually keep it simple with a cone because the ice cream is such good quality, but today I had an avalanche with nilla wafers and bananas. It was fantastic!

I donβt leave reviews often, but this is hands down the best ice cream in Bloomington/Normal. My girlfriend and I this summer went to every ice cream place in town, including the fast food places like Dairy Queen. Nothing compared to Geneβs. Itβs affordable with that βat homeβ feel. Highly recommended!

Geneβs is a local favorite for a reason. Their ice cream is rich, flavorful, and always hits the spot. Itβs one of the few places that still offers crunch coat, a nostalgic treat that takes me right back to childhood. The staff are super friendly, and thereβs always a great crowd hanging out, enjoying their treats and soaking up the summer vibes. Donβt miss it!
