“The ice cream and frozen yogurt menu overwhelmed us with its enormous selection of ice creams, hot toppings, cold toppings, and mix-ins.”
“go there for the food on occassion, and their grilled cheese, mac & cheese, and other basic fare is decent, the ice cream is the real reason to go.”
“This place is great, a HUGE ice cream menu, lot sof Fro Yo choices and friendly service.”
“had always thought that Cabot's was a nice family-friendly breakfast and icecream restaurant, but it seems that only certain types of people or families are served well.”
“The waitstaff is slow, and not entirely friendly.”
“Needless to say, our huge sundaes were phenomenal.”
“My party has waited 20 minutes to be served after being seated, been treated poorly by rude waitresses who don't seem to want to be there, and then has had to pay a very impersonal and unfriendly cashier.”View Less
Rude waitstaff. For at least the 3rd time and last time, I have been amazed by the rudeness of the waitstaff. I don't care how good the ice cream is, I won't go back.
Great Spot! Great Memories. I went as a kid and now my kids are hooked! Always a fun time with great food and awesome ice cream for dessert!
Best Family Restaurant Around!. What more could you ask for? this is a true throw back to the classic. I have never been disappointed with an experience at cabot's. it's a great place to bring the kids for a special treat!
Open year-round, this local institution has satisfied Newtonites' ice cream cravings for generations..

Family-owned for more than three decades, it's a Newton staple where practically every Little League team ends its season.…
Rude service. Cabot's has good food, but very bad service. My party has waited 20 minutes to be served after being seated, been treated poorly by rude waitresses who don't seem to want to be there, and then has had to pay a very impersonal and unfriendly cashier. I had always thought that Cabot's was a nice family-friendly breakfast and icecream restaurant, but it seems that only certain types of people or families are served well. This may not happen to everyone, but I wouldn't go there again unless I wanted to be treated in a discriminatory manner.…
