“I and a handful of friends used to go there every Wednesday when they were serving their all-you-can-eat chicken - it was the best ever (not just saying that). One day they said that they stopped making it but indicated that they would start doing it again soon. That was 4 years ago. I would love to see it make a comeback (or share the recipe).”

“Double D’s Ice Cream – A Sweet Spot You Can’t Miss!

Double D’s Ice Cream is everything you want in a local ice cream shop — fun, friendly, and full of flavor! From the moment you walk up, you’re hit with that nostalgic ice cream shop vibe, and the smell of fresh waffle cones seals the deal.

The flavor selection is amazing. They’ve got everything from the classic favorites to creative combos you won’t find anywhere else. Whether you’re into rich chocolate, fruity sorbets, or loaded sundaes, they’ve got something for every craving. And the portions? Let’s just say they don’t hold back — totally worth every penny.

The staff is always upbeat and patient, even when there’s a line out the door. They’re happy to let you sample a few flavors before you decide (which you’ll definitely need to, because it’s hard to choose just one!).

Perfect for families, date nights, or just treating yourself, Double D’s is the kind of place that keeps you coming back. If you’re in the area and love ice cream — don’t skip it!”

“Had bad service on delivery and the driver lied to me. Pizza was wrong so I had to wait for my correct order and they made me give back the first pizza that wasn't correct and the driver said they will probably use it again. But I know they will just throw it away cause it was aty place for 40 minutes. Lies!!”

“Best tenderloin I’ve ever had. Great service too!”

“perfect small town diner!”

“Last night our family went to BC Bbq for a late dinner, we got there at 8pm and thought they closed at 9 ( my husband is the one who looked it up of course and didn’t read that the bar is open till 9 not the food🙄) we sat down and found out they closed at 8 and we felt HORRIBLE we tried to get up and go somewhere else but our waitress insisted we stay. She was absolutely amazing and so was the food! Besides us coming in at 8pm and closing time I hope we weren’t too much of a pain! Thank you so much for being so generous!”

“Always loved the big tenderloins, but the last few have been almost too salty to eat”

“As a Marine, I love this place. I got married here, have had/attended parties here and it's always a good time! On occasion though, I do still miss the ole "bunker". I had a lot of great times and memories there as well.”

“We made a road-trip and at the tail end of it we popped into this place and had a great time. It seems like the jewel of the town and would recommend anyone looking for a nice drive to a very enjoyable place to give Whitetails a try. It feels family friendly but also has drinks and gambling games. The staff were wonderful and over all, it was a wonderful experience. We will return. 🍻”

“Last Saturday we had a celebration of life for my son. Rail House was one of my son's favorite places to hang out. We had more people show up than we expected and our server Melissa was a total pro!! She was kind, thoughtful, and handled all our needs beautifully! Our guests had a great time. Thank you so much to everyone who helped make this event more than we could have hoped.”

“Took a friend of mine that I haven't seen in a couple years to MacDuffs, I used to frequent McCritters, and told him, same owners, people, I kinda knew that on Sundays no food is served. So I called, she said just Pizza's. Good enough. I knew I wouldn't see my regular waitress etc. Lo and behold I walk in and there's Dee, a bartender that worked at Mccritters!! My friend LOVED the pizza! What food that was at McCritters, is at MacDuffs. I knew that, but not my friend. So good seeing Dee again, atmosphere was excellent, food, clean bar, went out on the patio, so nice!!”

“We stopped here for dinner and my daughter wanted a grilled cheese (which they didn't have on the menu) and they made her one anyway! So kind!! Very affordable and great Icecream!”
