“I freaking love whitey's! We come almost every other day and i personally get a 1.5 qt and eat it all right there! Their ice-cream is the best in the widwest! Shout out whitey's! The workers are great and they are all happy to see us when we walk in! They ask what flavor today! Ella and Tyler deserve a raise! In fact all of the workers do! (sorry I forgot most of the names) but this is our go to location the people are great and the ice cream is great! All around a great place!“

“Whitey’s is the place to be—hands down, no debate. If you’re visiting the Quad Cities, it’s basically a rite of passage to stop here. From classic scoops to creative shakes, they truly do it all.

If you’re just going for a scoop, the White Chocolate Raspberry is a can’t-miss—it’s smooth, sweet, and perfectly balanced. But if you’re feeling adventurous, go for one of their shakes. My top picks? The Lemon Bar Shake, Pineapple Upside Down Cake Shake, or the Turtle Shake. You really can’t go wrong.

This isn’t just the best ice cream in the QC—it’s easily some of the best ice cream anywhere. Whitey’s knows what they’re doing, and they do it with flavor, heart, and Midwest charm.“

“Have enough people not ranted and raved about this place. I'm already dreaming about the next time I have their banana graham ice cream. Top tier stuff, can't imagine why you would go anywhere else for ice cream if you live anywhere near the quad cities. I'm thankful I'm 2 hours away, otherwise I'd find myself here way too often.“

“Catering 🍦Ice Cream Sundae Bar The ice cream sundae bar was an absolute hit at our wedding reception! From the rustic setup to the delicious flavors, everything added a nostalgic, feel-good touch. Guests of all ages loved the ice cream, thoughtful presentation, and service. The team was friendly and professional. Their service was smooth and cheerful- our guests share many compliments including engaging conversations. Cristina was easy to work with and I highly recommend to anyone planning a special event!“

“Froyo bars can really be hit or miss. Peachwave is definitely a hit!

We 100% prefer Peachwave to other, closer froyo bars. Why? It's cleaner. Like, way cleaner. You get to put your own toppings on, including syrups. The toppings are better (e.g., hot fudge vs chocolate syrup). The flavors are great. The staff is friendly. And the prices are still super reasonable.

Whenever the timing lines up and Peachwave is open while we're nearby, we stop in for at least 4oz of deliciousness.“

“I called late Thursday afternoon for a blizzard cake. The size and flavor I wanted was not available but they said they could have it ready the next day by 11am. The website says to allow 48 hours for orders. The blizzard cake was ready and had the birthday writing I asked for. When I picked it up the service was fast and friendly.“

“Great butter burgers, fries, and hot sandwiches. The frozen custard is delicious and freshly made with your choice of mixins to make yummy concretes. Order at the counter & your food is delivered to your table, or use drive-in or pickup.“

“I love Culver's! Cheese curds, butterburgers, the cheese fries! Never had an issue with anything but the cheese sauce. How much do you pay for cheese sauce and I got half a containers full? Second time. I want the cup full, not half for that price. Otherwise, good food....You buy cheese sauce, check it before you take off....“

“Brought our dogs for their 10th Bday to get Pup Cups. They're always very nice.“
