“Stopped in tonight and the ice cream was amazing as always. The employee who helped us was incredible - she gave me a sample of the bittersweet chocolate ice cream which is now my new favorite flavor, she was so sweet! In my case, it’s not everyday a teenager is friendly to customers but the employee who helped us was absolutely phenomenal and I will be back to this location specifically for her! Thanks for making incredible ice cream and hiring wonderful employees!“

“Lovely ice cream store in excellent location.

I pulled off the interstate while traveling to eat lunch at the Brownstone House of Guilford.

As I was leaving, what do I see directly in front of me? You guessed it, ice cream!

And no self-respecting foodie is going to ignore that gastronomical sign of the heavens, right?

Wonderful flavors, I had mint chip in a waffle cone, and an assortment of many other sweet concoctions.

They also make ice cream cakes that are holiday and season themed. I hear that Halloween time is especially enchanting.

Super friendly staff and just what I needed for dessert.“

“Best DQ in CT the ice cream is just different here the texture and taste is way better, the toppings are always generous and they actually fill the cup over the top so you definitely get what you pay for here. The employees are always polite and always get the orders correct.

Parking: There’s like 15 parking spots there is 1 handicap spot but no matter where you park you’ll be close to the building.

Kid-friendliness: Great for kids

“Stopped by here on a whim as I was driving through. I got the black bean burger, which was incredible (built my own with a bun, cheddar, and some avocado). It was well made and crispy on the edges. Very flavorful. The French fries were awesome too - seasoned well. They tasted almost like curly fries, but better.
Staff was welcoming. Food came out within 5 minutes.

Vegetarian options: Veggies burger option. Avocado and standard burger toppings. Choice for ice burger lettuce instead of bun.

Dietary restrictions: Choice for ice burger lettuce instead of bun, if you're gluten free.“

“Updating review to let you know being under staff is still a problem. People are leaving as I write this review. 10 people just left. We're being ignored and there are only 2 waiters so I can't blame them. You need to pay better or something. Poor waiters are running around like crazy.

Food is great. Always seems short staffed and servers are doing multiple jobs which delays even bringing you the check when you need to leave.“

I remember when it first came here and there was the liquid nitrogen which made it really cool to get ice cream. The staff was nice and it was clean which was good but kinda disappointing they changed the brand.“

“My server was Johna and she was amazing! Courteous, professional, friendly, and attentive are just a few terms I would use to describe her. The food was absolutely delicious. The portions were huge. Hubby had the fried seafood combo plate. He has never taken a doggy bag and he brought home half his plate. I ordered the hot crab dip with garlic bread as an appetizer and a cup of lobster bisque. We shared the appetizer and it was so delicious. You could tell it was made with lump crab and there was actual lobster claw meat that was in the bisque. I’ve never had it before where you could actually see large pieces of meat. From atmosphere, to service, to taste and quality this was definitely a 10 out of 10. Will definitely be going back! And special thanks to the manager who gave my hubby a piece of carrot cake on the house for our 35th anniversary.“
