“It may not look like much, but don't let that deter you. This is a great bar with great service. It has everything you need for an evening out with your friends to blow off steam. The staff even let us order pizza to eat at our table since they don't have food options available. Would highly recommend.”

“My favorite DQ in the area!!!! 🥰 The Service is where this Dairy Queen shines. I LOVE that when I walk in with a smile, I am greeted with one from each of the 3 regular staff in return. I can tell they recognize me and welcome me as a return customer and that makes a difference. It just makes my day better. Atmosphere: The building is wonky - food on one side, ice cream on the other. This is no complaint against the current owners. The building was built looong before they owned it and would be excessively expensive to revamp - so they make it work. 😁👍 Side note to be aware: Some people may be a bit frustrated with the language barrier, but this is no problem if you speak clearly, have patience, and basic human kindness. If you have hearing issues or trouble with speech, I would suggest ordering inside, as it is easier to communicate in person. Speaking from experience working fast food in the past - the headsets aren't always clear so it can be difficult to get orders correct without a language barrier - especially if your vehicle is loud or there is a lot of outside noise. I prefer to order inside or on the app. If you can't be patient, go elsewhere - the workers here don't deserve any disrespect. Food: Of course, the food is great! I have never had a bad order. Your typical DQ comfort food. Having a bad day? - ice cream makes it better. Having a good day? - celebrate with ice cream. Can't keep your eyes open at work? - I recommend a mocha moolatte for that punch of caffeine to get you through the work day. Didn't pack your lunch & you're nearly broke? - the 2 for $5 deal is a win! Cheeseburger & Pretzel Sticks are my favorite! Conclusion: Thank you for keeping me from being hangry at work. You all are so dedicated to providing your regular customers with excellent service. I appreciate that you took over this DQ and kept it going in Gillespie. Keep smiling! 😁 Happy tastes good!”

“Tracy and Callie do an incredible job of fostering community at this bar. Not only are the brewed beers incredible, but all cocktails and mocktails are top notch and the rotating guest beers means there's always something to enjoy. We love going for trivia, open mic night, or anytime there's music. We always know there will be a friendly face and good conversations because there's no TVs to turn the crowd into zombies. The patio is welcoming, and the inside is cozy and extremely clean. If I could give more than a 100% rating I would. I feel so fortunate to have such a good small-town bar in this community.”

“We called last min this morning for a large group. They happily said yes and had our tables waiting. (Our plans got cancelled last min for another restaurant due to unforeseen circumstances). The service was wonderful and the food was so good! I had the house omelet! I highly recommend visiting or making a trip! Duckin Jeepers approved #duckinjeepers”

“Best calzones around. The 10” is only 6.99 and you get 4 toppings plus a dipping sauce. We get two and it feeds our family of 4 for under 20 bucks. (The 12” is under 2 dollars more but it’s too much food for us.) they deliver and you can pick up in store. Employees are so nice and food is always hot. Always a 10/10 experience”

“Tried the burgers for the first time..... excellent! If it's your first visit, just know they only take cash. However, there's an ATM that you can use with a 3.00 service fee.... but the prices are so reasonable, it's still much less expensive than other places!”
