They were efficient even with the large crowds. The inside is clean and perfect for families. We love having this little treat spot in our neighborhood!“

“Great customer service, and the ice cream is fantastic. I definitely would recommend!“

“The staff is always super nice!! The Gooey Butter cake is the best ice cream I've ever had!!“

“Wow wow wow! Ok. So, I'm not really a cookie person so it took me a long time to see what this place was about. And now . Well. I might be developing an addiction. Some of their options are desserts disguised as cookies. Like the Dubai cheesecake and heathbar tres leches. .both incredible btw. We got a bunch of different flavors and shared. And for that, I tried various cookies and the pink sugar cookie, the ultimate peanut butter cookie, and the brownies Sunday cookie. Cookie we're all enough to make me a cookie person. It's going to be hard to enjoy this place in moderation. Everything is really good“

“Best old fashioned banana split all three real ice cream flavors pineapple nuts chocolate delicious and plenty“

“We loved our shaved ice! The root beer flavor with cream was the biggest hit- so good!“

“I just have to take a moment to brag on K&J’s Elegant Pastries because they made my baby girl’s 4th birthday so incredibly special. When I say this cake brought tears to my eyes, I mean it. The soft pink Paw Patrol theme, sweet little Skye on top, the custom “4,” the beautiful bow, the tiny details — it was everything my daughter dreamed of and more. Seeing her face light up when she saw it is a moment I’ll never forget. 🩷 It wasn’t just a cake… it was the centerpiece of her day. It made her feel celebrated, loved, and so big turning FOUR. 🥹 Not only was it stunning, but it tasted just as amazing as it looked. The cake was moist, flavorful, and a huge hit with both kids and adults. We received so many compliments and everyone kept asking where we ordered it from. Thank you, K&J’s Elegant Pastries, for putting so much care and talent into making her day unforgettable. You didn’t just make a cake — you helped create a core memory for our family. Forever grateful 💕✨ #PawPatrolParty #4thBirthday #GratefulMama #SupportSmallBusiness“

“we just had so much fun getting ice cream cones! our scooper Chris was charming and handled our group with a smile! delish!“

“We were headed to our usual TCBY after my oral surgery, but they were closed. Edgewood Creamery was the only shop open at 11 am.
I am so glad! The chocolate soft serve was delicious. So many shops no longer have it, but I am so glad they did. Such a great flavor and not too sweet. My husband had Chocolate Raspberry and Kahlua Almond Fudge! Perfect! There are a variety of flavors as well. The staff was pleasant and welcoming. The shop and bathrooms are very clean. Plenty of seating! Located in a lovely area with shops and restaurants. Highly recommend.“

“The staff is always super nice!! The Gooey Butter cake is the best ice cream I've ever had!!“

“If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this is the place to be! The milkshakes, cotton candy, and cinnamon rolls are all absolutely delicious—you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything hits the spot! On top of that, the staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly, making every visit even better. Highly recommend!“

“A nice welcome addition to the ice cream scene around Birmingham! We went here on a Sunday night for a treat after dinner. The menu is great, ingredients are high quality. The soft serve comes in a cup, or two cone sizes (low top or high top). We opened for a high top cone and a sundae in a cup. Pricing is about what you would expect for a trendier ice cream place, ~$8-10 pp. They have a rotating flavor / feature sundae which I think is creative. There’s definitely something on the menu for everyone, from plain cones to BYO concoctions.

I am giving 4 stars only because of the building layout- it is deceptively small on the inside, so plan on taking your ice cream to go and eating it outside. The door also opens awkwardly from the inside, which created a jam with the people waiting inside and those standing in line outside.“

“Visited Cookie Fix for the first time today! Excellent experience and the cookies are superb!“

“Visited my favorite ice cream shop today. If you need a little pick-me-up or a dose of pure joy, I highly recommend visiting Unless U Scoops any weekday between 1:00 p.m. 5:00 p.m. And the ice cream is pretty awesome also!“

“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!“

“Family owned business. Also has an ice cream shop inside. Bbq plates, blt, sandwiches, and I believe country fried steak was on the menu.. I had a blt( good size ) and fried okra also had a 16 oz milkshake ( strawberry cheese cake) all for 16 dollars.“

“De vez en cuando, hace falta darse un gustito y por eso voy a la Nueva Michoacana. Me encantan las aguas que preparan ahí. Ven y compruébalo.“

“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“

“Great food. Aguas and ice cream!“

“Breakfast was great and prices nice .“

“Rude, and slow. Wait times are too long, and employees serve you based on how loud and frequently you complain instead of how long you've been there. Also helps if you're POC. They're the only ones who seemed to have gotten out in less than 20 minutes consistently.“

“Great food and a great atmosphere along with speedy service-what more does anyone need??“

“A hidden gem without a doubt!“

“Me and my daughter stopped at Pizitz Food Hall as last minute decision. I had the 2 pc catfish, hush puppies and a side of red beans and rice (RBR) with a bottle of water came to $24.20, not including tip. I asked for my catfish to be fried hard. Being Louisiana raised, this was the BEST seasoned, fried to perfection catfish. I refused to give my daughter a corner. 🤗 The hush puppies have kernels of corn which was an added bonus. I will admit I was underwhelmed with the RBR as they were quite bland and little hard than I like. But the other items made up and caused me to be satisfied enough to return.

The young men running it that day were all pleasant and personable.“

“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.“

“Amazing customer service!! Always has a smile on his face!“
