Without a doubt, the best Dairy Queen in Louisville by a pretty wide margin. Thanks to Bill and all of his amazing employees.“

“First time visitors! Banana milkshake did not disappoint. We will definitely be going back because I want to try their Italian Water Ice! Everything looked great!!“

“So glad I found this spot! Great flavors, great deal! Bring the whole family! Lots of options not just froyo“

“Ice cream was good. I think there needs to be a better menu, and then one small thing would be if a customer comes in, try and be a little more welcoming. (THEY WERE NOT RUDE) just didn't feel like I was being given much of a service. I mentioned I had never been there before and I didn't know what was good and they kinda just stared at me. Again, not rude, I think just young and doesn't know customer service very well. Meant only to be as a room for improvement, not to hurt this business. I will try again for sure!!!“

“This is a great little shop. Homemade ice cream their ingredients are from a local farm. The selection of flavors is good.
This is a small area so seating is limited. They have 1 kids table that seats 4 & a bar type table with 4 stools for adults only. Overall, definitely give them a try.“

“Great ice cream for a good price!“

“Love Megan and Chris!! Great teas and shakes!!“

“I just want to shout out Olivia at the Saint Matthews location. I have never received better customer service in my entire life and I have worked in food service and customer service For 22 years. Last night at about 6 o’clock I ordered a six pack of the regular size Dubai chocolate cookies from the Saint Matthews location. I live in Fairdale and every other location you know relatively not all of them, but most of them were sold out and I was like well I’ll just go to Saint Matthews so I ordered them. I need the store didn’t close till 10 so I decided not to leave the house until eight thirtyish and I don’t drive. I took an Uber. So we get all the way there after paying you know nearly $60 for an Uber and almost 40 for cookies. We’re coming up to $100 just for these cookies at this point we get to Saint Matthews, my youngest daughter and I, and when we get there, the Baker tells us that they do not have any of the regular size Dubai chocolate cookies they only have four minis and I was like OK well can I get a refund and she said we can’t do it without my manager here and I was like some options are cookies I don’t want or no money back and I’ve already spent $100 like I was pretty bummed I wasn’t rude or anything and but I was just really bummed I felt super letdown so that I called my other children and had them pick out what they wanted and they weren’t too excited but you know she could hear their voice is like I guess I’ll take this now. I guess I’ll take that. Well. I alternate between all three of my kids Crumbl points so that they each can accumulate them and get little rewards and things so yesterday was my middle child’s Crumbl point day and my youngest daughter and I leave Crumbl with the cookies. We weren’t really excited about because we didn’t get the one so we wanted and go to target across the street and before we finish at target my middle child calls to tell me that the manager Olivia called and said that she understood where we were really disappointed by not getting the Dubai chocolate cookies and that she wanted to make it up to us especially because we pre-ordered them and came all the way from across town in an Uber to make it up to us and she was going to drop some off to us personally and I was like well that’s great thank you… And I was thinking she meant 10:30 in the morning because you know nobody wants to go across town after work you know after they’ve worked there their little buns off all day so we get home and 🦋💙👩‍👧My Daughter’s like oh well Miss Olivia’s gonna be here the manager and I was like when is she coming? She said oh she’s on her way. Olivia went above and beyond in every Single possible way. Not only did she come with cookies she got all of them to buy chocolate cookies and she made us a gorgeous little cute little box and she also brought a little goodie bag with two chocolate milks, and two white milks and then another little goodie bag she brought two Crumbl Tumblr cups two Crumbl pop socket sands two Crumbl sunglasses Crumbl tattoos and Crumbl stickers I mean she literally just went above and beyond oh and Crumbl keychains and not only that but she drove them all the way from Saint Matthews To Fairdale at 11 something at night she didn’t get to my house till 1130 so I know she didn’t get home until after midnight after working all day long and I I’ve just never had somebody go above and beyond that way in all of my entire life and she really just deserves a shout out. Not only should she get a shout out like she gave the kind of service that I will gladly pay an Uber to take me all the way across town to Saint Matthews. If it means going to Olivia‘s Crumbl.“

“We love Graeter’s and come here all the time! They have the best ice cream! I was served by a very nice girl named Charlotte and she was very fast so we didn’t have to wait long to get our ice cream. 10/10 for everything! I would recommend this place to everyone.“

“Great ice cream, awesome people! Stop by and get a scoop!“

“This place is the BEST!!! Forget those commercial ice cream shops; if you want real homemade, creamy ice cream, come here. The Popsicles are the best, and there are so many flavor choices. With so many choices, we will keep coming back. Also, the presentation was hands down impressive. We love to support small businesses!“

“First of all, we are not even sweets eaters. But, after our recent trip to Italy for the first time, we have been longing for authentic gelato. Stopped in tonight to get some to go, honestly was trying to keep my hopes reasonable. Bought mint choc chip, salted caramel and orange creamsicle. Tried two and oh my!!! The creamy texture and flavors took us right back! Love this place and will return!“

“Amazing! Simply amazing!!!“

“This is an edit to my previous review. I ordered mushroom and Swiss burger with two patties and a strawberry sundae. Both were phenomenal. I ate the Sunday first. I ordered it through the app and it was literally brought out as soon as I pulled to the waiting area. Hot, fresh and delicious.

For fast food, this place is pretty much my favorite. Everything I order is always tasty and fresh. Today I ordered the Reuben with a three piece side of butterfly shrimp. It was exactly what I was looking for and tasted wonderful. This Culver's is close to my house and they never do the wrong.“

“The zebra coffee, cheesecake, and pineapple upside down cake were phenomenal! Camille is so kind and down to earth. The environment makes you feel right at home.“

“Prepare to be amazed by the sheer magic that is The Comfy Cow ice cream haven! My heart is still fluttering from the extraordinary experience I had with the incredibly fabulous Carrie, the maestro behind my sons ice cream cake creation. Picture this: I was in a cake crisis, left high and dry by a completely different establishment that failed to deliver the pre-ordered masterpiece I had been eagerly anticipating for over a week. Desperation set in as I reached out to several places, only to be met with helpless shrugs and apologies. But then, as if guided by a force of fate itself, I was connected with the enchanting Chantel from The Comfy Cow. With their usual grace and charm, they turned the impossible into reality. Brace yourselves, because this ice cream haven usually crafts their delightful creations with a 3-day lead time. Yet, armed with a dash of determination and a sprinkle of fairy dust, Carrie Ramirez from The Comfy Cow's Middletown location emerged as the hero to create a breathtaking ice cream cake for my son in under 24 hours. Yes, you read that right - UNDER 24 hours! Let's talk dedication, folks. Carrie not only stayed late into the night but also emerged from her dreams to ensure that my son's ice cream cake would be an unforgettable masterpiece. My gratitude knows no bounds, and my joy is so immense it could power a thousand birthday parties. And now, dear readers, I must hang my head in shame as I admit that this review comes a tad fashionably late. You see, I was so wrapped up in the delight of this ice cream cake that the days simply slipped through my fingers like sand. The cake was triumphantly unveiled on July 8th, and here we are on the glorious August 9th, penning these words with heartfelt apologies for my tardiness. In conclusion, if you're looking to be transported to a world where ice cream cakes are created by fairy godmothers and dreams come true, look no further than The Comfy Cow. Every bite is a taste of the extraordinary, every moment spent with this wonder-worker, Carrie, is a memory to cherish.

“We had a great experience at Cold Stone on Hurstbourne! I’m not sure if he was the owner or the manager, but he definitely made friends with all three of our boys by giving them a toy car! We will definitely be back for a great and fun experience!“

- The chili cheese fries work as an entree

Kid-friendliness: Family friendly fastfood joint.“

“I’ve started come up here multiple times a week as of lately and they have been nothing, but amazing. They don’t just randomly start “yelling” at you for no reason. I’ve played around the courts with my daughters in between games and they didn’t get mad. They just said, “Hey we’re about to start a new game.” So we were respectful and walked off the courts. Great place to go in Jtown! Come down and see for yourself how awesome this place is!“
