Clear River is situated right in the heart of Fredericksburg's main shopping area. We decided to have lunch there because the menu offered a variety of options. I ordered a kolache filled with sausage, while my wife chose the soup. Both dishes were excellent. We also shared a pastry, which was another big hit. The ice cream looked tempting as well. My only issue was with the staff. There were plenty of them, and they all appeared to be occupied, but their roles were unclear. It felt like they were busy with everything and nothing at the same time.

Yummy ice cream!! Had the caramel turtle fudge! The waffle cone was store bought, prefer homemade. But the ice cream was great! Also, they have a fun selection of coffee that was good!

We all scream for ice cream, and this place definitely delivers! The ice cream here is fantastic, and the staff is really friendly as well.

I ordered the Flight of 3 and let the staff choose for me. The ice cream was fantastic, and the Pecan Pie Bar was exceptional, although I devoured it before snapping a picture. The restaurant has a wonderful 50s theme—definitely worth a visit!
