The ice cream was good . We actually went for their cheese fries and a bit disappointing the cheese sauce was very thin and watery. Wished it was thicker to at least to stick better to the fries cause the fries were great. Not sure if we just got an odd batch or that's how they normally are.
Best cheese fries anywhere!
It was our first time at the Freeze today. Kudos to the artist that made all the custom sundaes look delicious. It was so hard to choose! Plus, I've never seen so many dip flavors for a dipped cone. We ended up with the Minty Paradise and a chocolate dipped swirl cone. They were served quickly and cheerfully. And both were delicious!
Always delighted to visit this ice cream place
Not what it used to be. Rude staff and hot fudge brownie has no brownie.

Reeks of small local summer spot tradition.
It was fun seeing all of the families line up for ice cream.
Very cute, not too expensive.

Extremely overrated and not worth waiting in the line that wraps around the building, especially when the employees are working at a snail's pace and spending more time talking to one another rather than hustling on orders. Very disappointing.

The ice cream is great! The only bad part is there isn't much family seating for outside. Most people don't want to eat it in their cars.

It is the quintessential summer stop for soft serve and, of course, cheese fries. We had Mama’s cheesecake sundae, which was delicious. The strawberries were giant and tasted great. We also had a coney cheese dog, which was absolutely amazing—probably the best coney dog I’ve ever had from a random roadside joint. And as everyone else mentioned, the cheese fries. The cheese sauce was unlike any other liquid cheese I’ve had. If it’s actually plastic, I don’t want to know.
