“Best Reese Blizzard in town! Updated 02/12/2026 - Went through the drive-thru twice recently and so enjoy the kind staff at this restaurant. One visit was simply for the Royal New York Cheesecake with Strawberries Blizzard. The entire family LOVED this dessert. It is hands-down the best fast-food dessert out there. It tastes just like strawberry cheesecake with large chunks of strawberries, cheesecake, and graham cracker crumbles. The second visit was for meals and the aforementioned Blizzard. Our sandwiches were perfect - moist and fresh with a good amount of toppings, and their fries are always crunchy outside, soft inside, and hot!”

“We recently hosted my daughter’s birthday party at Neighbors. We cannot stop raving about our experience! It was hands down the easiest birthday party we have ever experienced. The staff at Neighbors took care of everything! The shop was decorated with balloons, party favors made, and the tables were set with paper and crayons. They played a slide show of my child and got to pick out the playlist. We walked into a fully set up party and a happy and accommodating staff! The kids and parents raved about the experience. They were SO accommodating when it came to unexpected siblings tagging along by letting us have the options of additional party favors and having a tab open for extra ice cream. After the party, the staff took care of all the clean up leaving us feeling like we just got the red carpet treatment. If you have a party coming up I strongly encourage you to check out their events page on their website. I will be recommending them to everyone. We have hosted so many kids parties. This was by far our favorite (and easiest) one!”

Not only do they have vegan and sugar-free flavors, but to my surprise they even offer a number of gluten free flavors as well. We enjoyed a pleasant atmosphere that offers endless possibilities.

“I absolutely love this place. I remember a couple years ago my siblings forgot what flavor snow cone I wanted so they got me frog in a blender now I get it every time who knew forgetfulness could be delicious. It's not just the snow cones it's also the food. Their pretzels, funnel cakes, and nachos are the only food I've had from there but I loved all of them. I always ask my mom if we can get sno daze after school. The only problem is it takes kinda long sometimes but personally I say it's worth the wait. Yummyyyyy”

4746 Co Rd 52, Helena · 10.09 miles

“Great Customer Service! They are often understaffed but they are always quick to say hello and make sure you know they are there to help. You might find a dirty table now and again when a rush comes through but this place is very clean!! I can't even imagine what prompted the bad customer service unless someone was eating their yogurt before it was weighed but even then they will remind that signs are posted and it's just not allowed. This is because there is no flat fee for the yogurt and toppings... its weighed. People who eat their yogurt before it's paid for are literally stealing. 🤔 I drive from Birmingham because of the Customer Service and they have the best Acia Bowls around! yummmm”

“Dairy Queen is the place to get a couple laughs, some good food and a friendly encounter. All the associates that were there are friendly, kind, caring, helpful, good attitude, patience and good spirited. The food is always good. They always get your order right and then some. They remember their regulars very well and even become friends with you like me. All they’re missing is a children’s play area. Totally recommend.”
