Plus, every time we passed by, there was a line wrapped around the building. So we stopped.when I got in line and read the menu, I knew this was not the place for me. I personally don't like soft ice cream, but since it has gotten great reviews, I tried it. I was not impressed. It was not flavorful. Just a lot of ice cream . It does not have the flavor of real ice cream and limited choices in flavors. I am a butter pecan fan. I could have added nuts, but it's not the same. I won't be going back, only because it's just not my style.

The only downside is that they only accept cash; they don't take credit cards or Cashapp. I'm hopeful they'll upgrade their payment options since they have several new locations opening soon.

Until today, my benchmark for all of them was Dairy King in Plymouth, Michigan, which I considered to be the best. However, after trying a strawberry shake from Dreamette in Jacksonville, Florida, I've found a new standard by which all others will be judged. The sign outside claims to be "Florida's #1 Ice Cream Shop," and based on the ice cream I've had in Florida, I must say I agree with that assessment.
