A great local place to grab the 'best cheese fries' (which live up to the name) as well as a quick comfort food like chicken strips, hot dogs, and corn dogs. Don't leave without trying some fresh squeese lemonade, a dipped cone (the birthday cake coating is so good), or a specialty sundae (I grabbed the salty dog and it was delicious!). They are a seasonal shop, so make sure to visit when they are open!

The Freeze is a local gem in Crystal Lake, known for its nostalgic old-school vibe and a diverse menu. From delicious cheese fries to kids' meals with treats, there is something for everyone. The standout soft serve ice cream creations, like the Beach Bum with hot fudge and cookie dough bites, are a must-try. Dipped cones, including the popular blue raspberry, are highly recommended, with many dip flavors available. The hardworking staff ensures a delightful experience with every visit, serving up neat-o soft serve ice cream with fun toppings. However, some customers have mentioned that the cheese sauce for the fries can be thin and watery, which may affect the overall experience. Despite this, many guests have enjoyed their orders, like the Oreo blizzard and custom sundaes, appreciating the quick and cheerful service.
