“I've occasionally driven past this place and thought "I need to stop there sometime". Today was the day. I got a Butterfinger Flurry. Their soft serve has a very nice creamy taste and texture. I was happy with what I got.

They have a very nice covered outdoor seating area that has a real small-town feel about it.“

“We really like coming here and will continue however I have noticed that the tables are not wipe down from employees regularly just watch everyone’s reaction when it’s sticky on there tables i seriously got a large amount of a sticky arm I did not see it there and asked if they could wet a napkin for me the water fountain is turned off the manager had a short get together with the girls shaking his head no , they offered a cup of water, thank you I love my wife she wiped the other tables also I’m sure this was a health risk to ask for a wet towel and I apologized“

“Ice cream is so good! And an amazing selection of items“

“Firat of all, I do NOT recommend, I don't why it says I do! I've visited Dairy Del many times in the past and have noticed that the quality has greatly diminished the past couple years. I believe the hype is because they're only 1 of 2 places in the neighborhood that serves soft serve and everybody looks forward to them opening for the year. But after tonight, I will never go back. I will drive further and go to Dairy Kastle (on Eastern Pkwy) instead. It seems the staff at Dairy Del doesn't care about putting out a even DECENT product. I know,.it's ice cream. How bad can it be, right? Well, it CAN be so bad that I will never go back. This is after giving them chance after chance to get it right. For instance, the banana split I got included mini scoops of ice cream (not exaggerating when I say "mini") & I couldn't even see the 3 different syrups. The heath flurry...the ratio of heath to ice cream was def not acceptable & it wasn't mixed well at all. I should have refused it or had them remake it, but honestly I was kinda in disbelief at what I was seeing & my bf was driving off as I was checking it out (while saying how much of a total rip off this was). I can get a better product at someplace like DQ, & for less money. I believe the staff has gotten worse each year & they simply don't care about putting out even a decent product. It's def not worth the hype! Do better guys, if you care about giving your customers what we deserve!!“

“Superman ice cream & chocolate covered cherry cyclones“

“The maple square was amazing, and the service was fast but no one acknowledged me until they were handing me the food. Not a big deal but a simple wave would've made me feel more comfortable as it was my very first time in a Crumbl store.
That and how busy they were didn't help the atmosphere. I mean yay. You're busy. But it was a small area with 2 other people waiting and workers working their butt's off. Not a great atmosphere.“

“This is response to the lady, I believe Jackie is the name, that had the horrible experience at the Widow's Walk Ice Creamery. You mentioned the owner is responsible for the, let's be honest...very few one star reviews for the business. Have you noticed the number of 5 star reviews that she is also responsible for? This business has endured several staff shortages over the years because it is just a mom and pop set up. They serve hundreds of people and she is always there to help. That is not just a business, but it is also her home. Nobody is coming to your place to tell you not to feed cats or anything else. What she does on the privacy of her own porch is none of your business. 692 reviews with an average of 4.5 is about as solid as you will find for an ice cream shop. You obviously took a misunderstanding and decided to attack on social media. This was not the best way to handle your poor experience. I truly think you should go back and talk to Jill and see about having a new experience that will mirror what the majority of patrons say about this small business in Indiana. This is a business that is not a chain or large scale business. It is family run and continues to please most people. Give them another shot and think about what you are saying within your posts. I understand focusing on the specific experience, but then you got personal with the cats and appears you exaggerated much of what you observed on that day. Great ice cream shop and super service, even on days when somebody calls in. Give them another try please!“

“They were amazing! They came and served ice cream to the disabled adults we support. They were kind and wonderful. Thank you for coming to our event!“

“Dirt Drive thru service only. When i arrived there wasn't much activity. I was pleasantly surprised with the swirl cone i ordered, with the size, texture, taste of the ice cream, and the freshness of the cone. I would've giving it a 4.5 star because i went back during the week past 2 pm, and they were closed, although Google indicates different operating hours. But the cone was delish. I highly recommend stopping by. Service was professional, and courteous. I was in the area on a business trip. I miss it!!“

“I drove almost an hour to try this and it didn't disappoint.“

“This place has just about everything! Sandwiches, coffees, teas, boba, Ramen bowls, Pho, burgers, subs, even specialty corn dogs, and amazing bakery items! Super nice people and everything was great tasting and good serving amounts, all for a decent price in my opinion. Also was playing nice music and had nice decor. Can't wait to go back!“

“Chocolate mocha almond fudge donut ice cream sandwich“

“My family and I wanted to try somewhere new for brunch. After looking at the pictures we decided to come here.
To start, parking is a bit tight. If you are handicapped it might be easier to park in the spots facing the street. (Obviously not the restaurants fault. Just wanted to mention that.)
Upon entering this place, it is very cozy & clean. You can order to go or take a seat at one of the several tables. It's refreshing to sit at a table, and the placemats actually stay in place. Silly detail, but it was noticed.
They have a lot of drink options and a good handful of food options. Unfortunately, they didn't have a couple of shake options or waffles available during our visit. Plan to go try these at a later date though. My husband had already eaten, so he just got some mozzarella sticks. My parents and I opted for some burgers and fries. Everyone liked their meals. Their fries had just the right amount of crunch, and the burgers were fresh / juicy.
Overall, this place is a hidden gem I'd suggest trying.
Shakes: 10/10 BTW

Parking: Parking spots are tight. There is a speed bump in between the restaurants. Some parking spots are marked for specific business.“

“Small batch, extra creamy ice cream. Great flavors 🍨“

“very cute place, will catch your eye passing down the streets. the parking is kind of tough, tough to go in & out. but, the customer service is impeccable, the prices are fairly cheap, the flavors are unique/expansive, and the sweet treats are delectable“

“Nice little hidden gem. Drove past this place plenty of times and then my wife suggested that we stop and try their ice cream. Now I try to get by there once a week or so. Good food and the price is reasonable. Give it a try I'm sure you'll like it!“

“Nice atmosphere! Great steak burgers, chocolate milkshake, & fries ! Friendly staff !“

“Brittany at Fern Creek store was amazing. She was very helpful and professional and got us together for last minute treats for our son’s birthday!“

“We Eat Culver's All the time but today was the first time we went inside. And Oh My Gosh. It was Amazing! So Hot and Perfect! Juicy Burger, Fries Crispy! But I have NEVER had a better Root Beer in my life!! I love this Jeffersonville Location!“

“Delicious cookies, great service.“

“Cute little Creperie stand in the Logan St Market. Crepes were made well, however they ran out of onions and peppers?? Unsure how you can run out of something so basic. The person in the stand had plenty of time to do some mise en place between orders.

The dessert crepe we had—Nutella Deluxe—was very tasty and properly stuffed, whereas the savory one had hardly any toppings. Otherwise, I would’ve rated this place 5 stars.“

“Have not been here for a long time dt poor experience. Decided to give it another try w my cousin while she was in town from Canada. Really simple today- guy took oder at counter, we sat down, guy brought our food. We both had the lettuce wrap burgers. They were good, please know to be prepared for a super mess. In my opinion they should wrap w way more lettuce than they actually do to help w this messiness. We enjoyed our meal. It's not a super comfy place but it's not meant for you to stay long I don't think.“

“I’m putting out 4 GA tickets for Tonight concert @ Fourth Street Live available for $30 each. Willing to sell separately and transfer via AXS. DM if interested“

“The lady who helped me at the front counter is amazing. I was there to pick up a last meal for my dog before I put him down. I asked her what she recommended because I was just picking random things. She told me to try just regular hamburger patties, no bread ( I didn't know you could do this), and a plain vanilla pup cup. The only thing he wanted to eat was the hamburger patties. She was amazing helping me out, even when I started to cry, which I kept apologizing for. I wish I would have thought to get her name. She got my food quickly for me, which I appreciated. And as I left, she said she would keep me in her prayers. She is a wonderful human being.“

“ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CHEESEBURGER IVE EATEN! I got the double bacon cheeseburger, onion rings, and cheese curds. Everything was SCRUMPTIOUS!!! I recently moved to Indiana, and I've never heard of Culver's, decided to try them out, and was PLEASANTLY surprised.“

“First time here. Late afternoon, so it wasn't very busy. TONS of options. The variety of options is almost endless when you start combining toppings. We decided on a flight of two cobblers and two banana puddings. They were all tasty. The flight of 4 comes with two cups of ice cream as well. The register person was pleasant and helpful. We had peach cobbler (of ccourse), caramel apple cobbler, pecan bourbon pudding and cheesecake pudding. The location is tucked in a corner in front of Walmart, kind of behind Cheddar's. Not the easiest place to navigate with the gauntlet of Veteran's Parkway and Walmart, but not too bad. For the combination of treats, we thought it was reasonably priced.“

“They are great!I called to order a "Snickers Blizzard cake,not knowing I should call 24 hrs ahead.Crystal. was to be off in 1/2 hr.,Today(New Yearsr Day picked it up a beautiful(& Delicious!)Birthday cake!The staff is very friendly.“
