“I’ve been to this ice cream shop multiple times, and it never disappoints! The dark chocolate truffle and raspberry flavor is one of my favorites. I also tried the cappuccino flavor as something new which was a really nice as well. But what really made my visit stand out this time was the amazing customer service.

“Wow, this hit the spot! It's hot, and I am tired from all of the walking, lol. So right in front of us is the Sunshine Tree Terrace. A quick stop 'n go type of place that offers soft-serve ice cream. Their special is this citrusy flavor called Orange Cream Float! The price was $5.29. It reminds me of the creamsicles from years ago. I'm happy again!“

“Delicious ice cream and they sell Zweigle’s hots. We are originally from Rochester, NY, where Abbott’s was born. Zweigle’s is also a product of Rochester. My favorite hot dogs they are pop-opens which means they should be grilled or broiled NEVER boiled. Loved being here, it brought back a lot of wonderful memories, especially seeing all the Abbott’s posters from the 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and 60’s.“

“I haven't been to this location in a while, but have always enjoyed stopping by! The staff is very friendly, the place is always clean & bright, and the location is very convenient.
This time I tried one of their 'Candy Shoppe' flavors, the Blue Razz, a blue raspberry flavor with vanilla ice cream with colorful Nerds candy. It was delicious and a great addition to their menu!“

“Love, love, love Ritter’s! Went in today and Datlan was so kind and helpful. He had a smile on his face and was ready and willing to answer all of the questions that we had. Thank you for your kindness and friendliness! Ask for him next time you’re there. 😊“

“Delicious!!! Stop here in Dr Phillips!“

“Love the ice cream from brusters my only complaint is the fact when you order a pup cup they give you like a very mini drop of vanilla ice cream expect to give it to my dog I was like really that’s what you’re giving me … No I’ll pay you for a cup of ice cream then was told we don’t have whip cream seriously why would I give my dog whip cream over real ice cream so either fix this or I’ll take my business somewhere else plus my blast I got tonite wasn’t all that you’ve done better so Brusters get with the program and do better !!!!“

“Delicious, all natural paletas. My kids first choice is strawberry! 🍓“

“Excellent ice cream! I'm not used to a Mexican sweets store, but that doesn't mean it wasn't great!“

“I have been enjoying it since we lived in Winter Park FL and I think that it was the original location, I love it that you can make so many flavor combinations, and you can ALWAYS get a sample.“

“I got the chocolate peppermint cookie Sunday Loved it a little melted but delicious �. Cast member was very nice.“

“I accidentally stumble across this cafe while looking for lunch during our road trip. Not knowing much about mexican drinks the girl at the cash register offered me 2 different types of drink samples. I liked the Agua de limon. It was very affordable and a healthy drink! The hospitality received from this cafe was the best I've received in Florida. Highly recommend you visit and try their drinks.“

“We just opened our ice cream shop a few days ago (and we serve Hershey’s Ice Cream, of course!) and have received so many positive comments and reviews - both in-store and online - about the the taste, quality and variety. Very happy with this product! Only complaint is we’re going through it too fast 🤣“

“I've driven through Lake Wales from Vero Beach to various Tampa area places for 15 years. I'm not sure I ever noticed Topper's before. As it happens, I was en route to a Tampa Cybersecurity Conference the other day. We celebrated office birthdays for lunch (great brauts!) so I headed to my meeting. As I passed through Yeehaw Junction I was crac=ving a good icecream cone.\n\nI love a good frozen custard but they are getting harder to find than hen's teeth. I was spoiled in Virginia where we had had many small towns with a frozen custard with fresh and delicious treats all summer.\n\nThe swirl-topped purple accented building caught the corner of my eye as I traveled westbound. I missed the entry on State Route 60 so I made the next right and entered via the shopping plaza parking lot.\n\nIt was worth the detour. I'm a certified chocoholic (it's said in jest here) so I ordered, guess what?? They have several flavors including a "special" offered. As it happened, Wednesday is "Cone Day" with a nice discount on sugar and waffle cones; I got the waffle. It was ginormous! It took me to Bartow to finish. This a great stop or destination on a motorcycle cross-country or a family outing.“

“Every time I go into my Crumble the store is clean and the staff has been very kind.
All th cookies I have tried so far have been amazing.
The sugar cookie with the pink frosting with a hint of almond is one of my favorites.
I do hope they bring back the Beetlejuice one that was out of this world 2 of my favorite things dark chocolate and cream cheese frosting.
Keep it up Crumble I can't wait to see what flavors are next.“

“Oh my...they make fresh tortillas. I didn't care to buy any..then when we were on the road and I sampled my friends..I totally regretted my choice. I ate 3 of her 12. Flan was amazing. The fresh fruit drinks were refreshing on a hot Florida day.“

“Got their graham cracker ice cream. It was incredible!!!“

“I entered Cold Stone’s Sinter Garden expecting ice cream and left spiritually reborn. The moment I tasted that euphoric swirl of flavors—chocolate thunder battling rainbow sprinkles in a vanilla dimension—I heard a Gregorian chant erupt from the whipped cream. The waffle cone crunched like the bones of a candy-coated unicorn. A child screamed. Not out of fear, but respect. My spoon melted from sheer awe. Somewhere, a lactose-intolerant man wept softly in the corner, holding a pint like a forbidden scroll. Five stars. My pancreas may never forgive me, but my soul is wearing a cape and doing cartwheels“

“Staff was amazing and helpful! Great desserts as always! Place was clean and everything was efficient!“

“Literally the best! Did you know you got a free dole whip if you were the first in line?! They open at 10:00 by the magic carpets! If you are the first person they serve you get it 100% free! Whichever one you choose! It was such a lovely surprise! I got the chamoy and tajin! 100000% recommended for the simple kind gesture and the happiest friendliest people!“

“Clean, lots of options, and friendly staff. Definitely will be returning often with whole family!“

“Great place to get a snack or a treat, while I was there right outside was a parade which was fun to watch and eat. I recommend getting a table before the parade because it gets really busy during and right before the parade. I got the turkey leg, a lot of people love it but it was not for me. The other people I was with loved it though so I recommend trying it if you have not had it.

“Being from Louisiana, my family was super excited to see snowballs that we recognized. Not only were they delicious and the flavors were spot on but it was very quick service and super friendly staff! We can’t wait to go back!“

“The older lady that usually works the window is a SWEATHEART, she's super friendly and knowledgeable, and has never messed up our order! There's a couple of tables to sit, and there's even parking in the shade!! The prices are fair and every thing they have is yummy! I like the vibe here better than the Twistee Treat by Kingsridge, plus there's actually some trees around, not just wide open paved area.“

“Great food and drinks! Friendly staff, and great weekday specials. I got the steak street tacos and they were fantastic! Elvera gave me great service at the bar, will definitely come back!“

“I had the BEST customer service from Makena. I called the store about my order that I placed online. She was so pleasant and kind on the phone with me and then when I received my delivery she had a little note in there telling me she hopes I enjoy my treat. I frequent this store and she was by far the most pleasant person who works there. Thank you Makena for showing me that there really are kind people still in the world“

“I would have given 10 stars if was an option! I recommend giving this business a try they are really good at their craft, i ordered a custom made cake for my wife's birthday and prior to that my wife ordered a custom cake for our daughters birthday and they didn't disappoint, they came through beyond expectation! They are an hidden Jem!“
