“Besides outstanding ice cream, it was open on a Sunday for family outing in early March - we just HAD TO HAVE some awesome ice cream! So worth the journey.“

“Trombetta’s is both a fan favorite yet somehow still feels like a hidden gem! Best place to bring your toddlers at off hours for mini golf - they let you linger and take your time. My boys can’t get enough of mini golfing with Halloween decorations (and delicious ice cream doesn’t hurt! 🤪). The staff is always incredibly kind and helpful. I’m grateful that places like this still exist ☺️“

“love their selection of ice creams and toppings and not to forget their coffees are good too!!“

“MOTW has the best chai in the city. I love the soft, creamy, silky texture of their Yemeni chai. I love the way they decorated the 38th st location, very inclusive and powerful pictures. Great spot to get some work or reading done. Also love their prayer or meditation area. It’s such a wonderful coffee shop. Usually Raadia is there when we go and she’s such a kind and friendly soul, always so helpful and customer focused.“

“That tres leches is so yummy!!!! Who ever put that together deserves a standing ovation because let me say WOW!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I am definitely going back and I’m bringing all my friends & family to share this deliciousness with. The service is great too. Super kind & patient.“

“Fried scallops and onion rings are to die for. I can’t believe this place gets bad reviews. I live in Sterling and have eaten here for years. I’ve had fried saclllops in a lot of places throughout New England and these are the best!! Food comes out super fast too!“

“The best frozen yogurt and the staff is always super nice and friendly!“

“Tony from Juniper Farms Ice Cream came to our house yesterday. We had a first communion party for my grandson. We surprised him with the Ice Cream truck. Tony was punctual and amazing with the kids and adults alike. Juniper was easy to work with and a great surprise for any gathering. Can’t say enough good things. Kathy Bonnici Shrewsbury“

“Very friendly staff. Great location right off of 495.“

“February 6, 2025. What’s seemed like any other day in the life of an average-joe such as myself. What I did not expect, however, was my mind to be busted all over…

I visited the creamery expecting it to taste like any other, yet that is not how it turned out. The cream produced here, specifically by a fellow named Sid, in my case, was particularly excellent.

Regardless of your cream preferences, I simply cannot recommend this location’s enough. The cream here will just absolutely blow your mind.

My life is forever changed after visiting this location, and I’ll be chasing another cream experience of this magnitude for the rest of my life.

Wow. Just wow…“

“We went for Easter with a 2yo and a 6yo and had a good time. The kids were happy and so the adults. As other people commented is not really an egg hunt, because the eggs and colorful ball are all around the garden. But I knew it before going and explained the kids in advance so they weren’t disappointed. You fill the basket with eggs and need to return to exchange for a goodie bag with some candy, Easter chocolates and coloring sheet, stickers, a ring, balloon and a few more things. Not much but really enough. Plus can have an ice cream sandwich! The place is really nice, and there were a few activities to do outdoors plus an indoor room with plenty of toys and bouncy castle. It was overall a fun and lovely experience.“

“the best burger I've had in Massachusetts 😎 sweet potato fries and milkshake is awesome!“

“Love the place. But I got a chocolate crisp bar, but there was only like 10 crisps in the whole bar. And that is not an exaggeration. It is new on the menu, so hoping Hebert corrects this.“

“I had never been to Cold Stone Creamery before, but I had the most delightful experience. Miguel was working behind the counter and he was super friendly & made me a DELICIOUS chocolate shake. I will definitely be back to try more flavors! :)“

“They have excellent cheeseburgers.“

“I just want to say if you pick up your food hot off the grill and fryer this place has excellent burgers and fries. If you aren’t lucky enough to get it just cooked, especially the fries it’s only mediocre. I wish somehow they could always serve just cooked fries because it makes you want to go back again asap. But I realize that’s a tough decision for the fry chef. I think hot fries is the one thing they should try to deliver if at all possible because you can’t beat them. I will be back. Nice friendly staff and clean restaurant. I enjoyed my dinner driving back on the MassPike! Ty Dairy Queen!“
