“Beth was delightful hostess. Darling little place with lots of food goodies to but. Would definitely go back❤️”

“Popped in for some fudge to bring home. We grabbed Cookies and Cream, Chocolate Caramel Pecan, and Heath Toffee (vanilla base.) So delicious, the toffee was my fave!! Staff was friendly. Would definitely stop by again when in town.”

“The food is delicious I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad meal from here. Plenty of options from pizza to subs to salads. The serivce is wonderful even with the slightly younger employees they are very polite and helpful last time I was there I was served by a very polite young lady Alissa I think was her name. Would definitely eat here again”

“Awesome!! From St.Louis, if you are From STL then you know of the Italian Hill. These guys have got them beat hands down! Awesome wings, Caesar salad and pizza!!!! Seriously, only my daughter makes a better Caesar.”

“Cool little spot on the left side as your driving into Pine. Wood fired pizza next door in the main restaurant, whisky, wine, and beer in the tap room. Small area, only seats about 15 people in the tap room. People have been great, service suffers because it gets so packed. Otherwise, great spot to grab a brew and a bite on your way into Pine or Strawberry.

Parking: Large parking area right off the 87, plenty of parking, even for large rigs with trailers.

Kid-friendliness: Great outdoor area for kids. Ample outdoor seating makes it pretty kid friendly.

Wheelchair accessibility: Parking lot is gravel, might be troublesome to wheel to pavement.”

“Best pizza I have ever had. We ordered the Pablo. They get very busy but worth the wait. Not only is the pizza fantastic but the whole staff is great. Everyone is friendly and they work very efficiently together. The lady tending bar had a great upbeat personality even though she was so busy and she was great at multitasking. Great job! Great food great drinks”

“Friendly staff, food served hot & fabulous breakfasts!”

“Was on a short trip for the snow and the kids wanted Pizza. Was not looking forward to driving to Payson for Pizza. Was able to pick up pizza, wings, and a salad in less than 30 minutes and it was less than a mile away.”

“A Sweet Stop That Sticks With You

Passing through Pine on a dusty summer afternoon, we stumbled into the Gingerbread House and found ourselves wrapped in nostalgia. This isn’t just an ice cream shop—it’s a memory-maker.

We tried the lemon creamcicle and pistachio, and both were perfection. The lemon was bright and creamy, like childhood summers bottled into a scoop. The pistachio had that earthy, mellow richness that makes you slow down and savor.

The place itself feels like a storybook cottage—quirky, welcoming, and full of character. You can tell the owners care deeply about what they do. Every flavor feels handcrafted, and the vibe is pure Arizona charm.

Whether you’re hauling gear up north or just meandering through Rim Country, this is the kind of place that turns a pit stop into a highlight. It’s the kind of spot you tell friends about, the kind you remember years later when the heat hits and you crave something sweet and grounding.

Don’t just pass through—pause here. Let the ice cream melt a little. Let the moment linger.”

“We just eat thanksgiving their and it was awesome thank you for the amazing food!!!!!”

“Absolutely enjoy Bandits when I have time away at the cabin! I look forwarding to seeing the locals, staff and owners. Everyone makes you feel right at home. Great food too!”

“Great food, service and entertainment!! And my dogs love it there!”

“Kaylee is an amazing individual! Made my husbands birthday the best ever via her graciousness and a delicious pecan pie!! A thousand thank you’s Kaylee. We’ll DEFINITELY be back soon. Xx”

“Oh my goodness I LOVE this place!!! The owner is so sweet and welcoming. We come here all the time, so she pretty much knows us by name and our usual orders. We always come in with around 7-10 people and they happily rearrange the whole restaurant to accommodate for us. They always get our food out on time. And the food is all so amazing. I usually get the coconut curry, but whenever I want to switch it up, I know I won't be disappointed. It's not super expensive, so you totally get your money's worth.”

“Great home style food... wonderful views to watch airplanes come and go.. oh, and the pies!!! oh my gosh!!”

“Was it worth the half hour drive? YES!!! What a treat from the white linen table cloths; quiet atmosphere; friendly service to the DELICIOUS food. The first Italian food that didn’t give me heart burn. We ordered an appetizer not on the menu and not only did they accommodate but Chef Ricki came out to personally discuss how we wanted it prepared. You know a confident chef when he comes out to check with his patrons on their satisfaction. Lovely servers with knowledge of the dishes. The pasta is light allowing a perfect blend of tastes whatever the topping and you don’t feel so full from too much pasta. I love that. I didn’t need to take unfinished food home though the portions are generous. Can’t wait to go back.”

“The service was great! They remembered my favorite drink and milk preferences and even gave recommendations based off of it! The place feels very relaxed, like they won't rush you to make your order. They treat you more than some number, you are a friend, family or neighbor. Today I had her new cookie Mallow Dreams and it was SOO GOOD! I had to happy dance as I gobbled it down, lol! I also got a hot chocolate with her housemade Sesame sauce. Omygoodness, delicious, chef's kiss!”

“Great coffee spot! Tried Windmill for the first time while staying at the Strawberry Inn and it was excellent. Highly recommend if you're passing through!

Love that their shop is an actual windmill. So cool!

The girls working did a great job of helping explain their drinks and options. Not a huge menu, but enough.
I tried their hazelnut chai and whoa, amazing! Would definitely get it again and again.

There is outdoor seating around if you want to enjoy your coffee there. It's in the same parking lot as the main building of the Strawberry Inn, can't miss it. We really enjoyed our drinks!”

“Amazing food and the owners are always friendly. The service is amazing and farm atmosphere is so cool and they have goats!”

“Wow! We went in and our waitress was amazing! Erika gave us the best service. So happy to see how clean this place is and the food is amazing. The Illinois roll is the best! You will want to keep returning. If I worked there I would be eating there all the time.”

“Our favorite pizza! We live in the valley and any time we go up north we stop at Pizza factory!”

“The place is excellent and very clean. Everything was very good except that they gave me a two-pack of coffee and they left the second one there and forgot. Then, seeing how they continue serving other customers, I ask the girl what happened to my coffee, which is there Oh excuse me and you already gave it to me until it was a holiday many customers passing throughThe place is excellent and very clean.
