Best ice cream in town we don't even mind waiting in line.They are very fast and friendly.
This is my all-time favorite place! Every time I come home for a visit I have to stop here! I love the various fresh flavors, especially black raspberry, which is really hard to find anywhere near as good!
I've been enjoying ice cream here since the 1970s, and the soft serve is still fantastic. Unfortunately, they are currently closed for the season.
Ordered a butterscotch milkshake, a favorite from another ice cream establishment so I thought I'd try one here. The young girl serving me seemed new, because another girl asked her a few times if she needed help, so maybe she just messed it up. But I gothalfway down the road, only a few sips in, and had to pull over because I felt so nauseous. I'm not sure how it is they maketheir butterscotch milkshakes but what I was given was disgusting. This is honestly my first bad review of somewhere, but I amstill feeling sick. Was later told too late by a friend their butterscotch is gross here.
