“We went in 01/06/25 I do not know who the employee was who was working but she had no basic customer service. We did not get greeted when we walked in, did not get asked if we needed any help or questions. Thankfully I have had years of experience with Hershey's Ice Cream so knew everything about it. But as a new customer I felt as if the employee had no care for her job. I would have just liked if she would have talked a little bit more and explained their procedures and steps.“

Simply pull up to the drive through or even step inside and have a seat. They are always quick and super friendly. My favorite is the King Cake daiquiri. My wife's go to drink is their mudslide.
