Dairy Queen - Dripping Springs

Hadn't been to DQ since I was a kid. Didn't disappoint.

I used to work at DQ and i see a lot of bad reviews… the reason the wait is so long is because there is no staff! We came down to 4 people one time, (including the manger Dine in is obviously going to be closed due to no staff. I have no idea what y’all expect from a DQ in a small town, nobody wants to work. The manger (Angie works day and night, 9am-11pm she’s an awesome lady. Have some patience you guys ;

Very good service. They have nice staff, very friendly and the manger is fantastic!!! they are short staffed but seem to get the work done

I tried going through the drive-thru, but there was no answer, so I decided to go in. You have to break open a locked door to even get inside! The windows have been covered so there’s no natural light, and they don’t turn the lights on, I guess because they’re cheapskates? Oh, but that’s just the beginning. I waited for 15 minutes at the counter and still no one helped me. Given that I was the only customer in the place I figured word had gotten out that this place was awful. But, I was about to leave when two sheriff’s deputies walked in. I breathed a sigh of relief because law enforcement officers only go to the good restaurants on their beat, but they were there to arrest me…all those speeding tickets I guess.

Hate to see it closed. My husband Robby and I always had date nights there in the the late eighties/early nineties. Everyone was always so nice and food was great.
