Dairy Depot Reviews
Ice cream was very good, but I got my order almost 15 mins before my boyfriend's. He went up to ask and their reply was , "oh that's normal." None of the orders were given out in order, instead they are put out on the counter and it was a free for all since there was no #'s or names for the order. People were taking the wrong items.
Tremendously long wait time
Have always loved coming here!!!

Dairy Depot offers a delightful experience with its incredibly delicious shakes and ice creams, featuring a wide variety of flavors. Known as the summertime hot spot for ice cream, it has been a favorite since 2022. The warm and welcoming atmosphere makes it perfect for families and friends to gather. The friendly and accommodating staff ensures a wonderful time, making special occasions like birthdays memorable with treats such as the green grasshopper fudge, a mint ice cream with chocolate chunks and fudge.
Guests can enjoy classic shakes or unique creations like pineapple Dole Whip, which is smooth and not icy, served in a cone with chocolate dip and sprinkles, adding a lovely crunch. Seasonal flavors like butter pecan and large portions are highlights. There is outdoor seating with a tent to escape the sun, and parking is available in the back and on the side street. Despite potential lines and slow service at times, the impressive prices and large sizes make it a must-visit location. The staff provides amazing service, with one employee giving the biggest cone ever seen from a soft serve place. The cherry cheesecake sundae is recommended, and the place has a delicious selection with short wait times.
