Short Stop Reviews
Usually we love Short Stop! But today there was a young lady working with a very foul mouth. I will not put her name on here but would be happy to speak to the owners personally.
very disappointed.
2 Saturdays in a row now we have been treated poorly by the older woman in charge of clean up.
We travelled in from Mt Pleasant at 8:30 tonight for ice cream only to find out you were closing at 8:30. You seem to always post online when you're closing early, and tonight we were rudely told they were closing at 8:30.
Last time, we arrived just before close on a whim, and we adjusted accordingly for tonight.

Short Stop is a family-friendly restaurant that offers a cozy dining experience and delicious food. The menu features a variety of options, including a great tenderloin sandwich, cheese curds, and a popular cheeseball dish that one of the grandchildren loves. The ice cream treats are also described as scrumptious, making it a hit with the whole family.
The restaurant is known for its kid-friendliness, with the grandchildren enjoying the swing, patio tables, and the now-broken hand pump that used to automatically fill a little bucket with water. The staff is praised for their friendliness and willingness to serve customers with a smile, though one reviewer had a negative experience with a rude cashier.
Overall, Short Stop is a local favorite, with clean facilities and a history of welcoming out-of-town visitors, as evidenced by the map on the wall. The owners are described as friendly and always busy, sometimes taking the time to sit and chat with customers.
