I went her for ice cream. Best handpacked I have ever had in years. And they have my favorite flavors❣️?Bubblegum and Yellow cake Batter. Tastes just like the good ole golden cake with the chocolate frosting that Momma used to make for us. ?

First, you’re greeted with a swarm full of bugs, Then with employees who can’t even tell you anything about the menu and when they get your order wrong since all the workers are twelve and they refuse to fix it. Called the owner and he told me “well everything is posted” if i ordered two specific flavors and all I got was plain vanilla ice cream that’s not on me that’s on the employee. I wouldn’t even have been upset if they had just fixed it would’ve costed the company all of 2$ to fix it. Sad. I don’t know why anyone goes here. Unsanitary and horrible service. I gave it to them to fix and they gave it back to me all smashed and unappetizing. Like I’m astounded at the horrible service like they smashed it out of spite and gave it back to me ? like whatttt

The old man was very rude giving me dirty looks after he messed up my order by giving me whipped cream after I asked for none and then vanilla ice cream when I ordered chocolate. Then the wizard I ordered was melting, as the young kid handed it to me, all over my hand. Turtle sundae I ordered had a ton of pecans a tiny swirl of ice cream and caramel at the bottom. The worst ice cream ever here. Definitely going to dairy cream from now on.
