Dairy Queen in Winnipeg

“I give 5 stars for all my previous visits — the ice cream was always exactly what I wanted. But this time, the girl at the counter made a mistake, and I had to pay again to get the right one. She should know the menu better and ask questions if unsure. Disappointing, especially since I came here just for this ice cream.“

“Every time we are helped by Vimal we are delighted by how thorough he is with our orders and how friendly he is. An example of this was when we placed an order for my daughter's birthday cake, and Vimal went through our information with us and the spelling to ensure that her birthday cake was a success. A fixture in our community and someone who I'm thankful to get help by“

“I’ve been coming to this DQ for almost a year now Probably visiting around a total of 12 times, the owner Jagminder is often there. Service is always excellent and all of the staff are friendly plus the treats are delicious 🤤 and often they have a coupon to save a couple bucks on hand or on the App. All you have to do is ask. Five Stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ highly recommend. This is the place to come grab a treat. Hurry up before I eat them all.“

“I get really bad anxiety just leaving my house. Like, I rehearse my drive-thru order in the car, out loud, alone. So when I tell you this DQ is my safe place, I mean it.

Yes, sometimes the wait is a little long, but honestly? That’s fine. I panic when people rush, so I actually like the extra time to practice my “Hi, how are you?” so it sounds normal. And so far they’ve always gotten my order right (I’m looking at you Tim Horton’s).

The staff is ridiculously friendly. Like, the kind of friendly where I immediately wondered if they were talking to me by mistake. One time an employee smiled at me so sincerely that I almost cried into my Blizzard. It made me so happy to have such friendly service at the drive-thru (again, I’m looking at you Tim Horton’s).

And THE CAKES. OH. MY. GOSH. Their cake decorator is basically Michelangelo but with frosting. I’ve ordered custom cakes from them multiple times and every single one made me gasp like I had just discovered fire (picture Tom Hank’s character in Cast Away…that’s me with their cakes). They’re my go-to now. I don’t trust anyone else with an icing bag.

Also, they have this little patio outside that feels like a tiny vacation. On hot summer days, it’s basically the Maldives but with fries. Okay, maybe not the Maldives. More like Birds Hill park. But it’s still a nice little spot. I bring my treat out there, sit in the sun, and pretend I’m a relaxed, carefree person instead of someone who stress-sweats in the parking lot.

Anyway, please go support them. They’re a hidden gem!

And if you see me there, please don’t say hi. I’m a really anxious person. Thank you.“

“Ive visited this establishment numerous times in the past few months, with little notice, And they have been more than friendly and more than accommodating to ensure that I got a cake to my liking. I'm very pleased with the staff at this location!!“

“I have to give DOUG a five star review here always love the ice cream at this location he’s been here 19 years working and making smiles on peoples face my son had the blizzard and I of course had the buster bar and what a great way to start a week five star review for delicious dairy queen“

“Stopped in here right after my sister and I got matching Hot Fudge Sundae tattoos just down the street.
They only serve ice cream, none of the hot food here and are only open seasonally.
Great place to stop in with family and friends“

“The ladies there never judge or get mad at me with my tremendous amount of modifications I want with a blizzard. I am very grateful and I tell them I am very grateful for allowing me my modifications. One of the ladies even told me that they are getting back soft chocolate ice cream, which she knows I really really used to like until they got rid of it so thank you ladies for giving me the most best treat ever“

“I never thought I'd review a DQ, but the girl behind the counter was so cheerfully giddy in explaining a new Blizzard flavour, that I thought, I really like the mood in this place. And the new flavour she recommended was delicious! But then, before we paid, another staff member stepped up and asked us if we knew about an online Blizzard coupon, which we'd forgotten to check for. So we got a deal plus a new flavour recommended. This staff is on the ball.“

“Dairy Queen is known for its tasty treats and diverse menu, but consistency in portion sizes can be a hit or miss. One common issue is the varying volume of their basket of fries. Despite this inconsistency, the fries are always a go-to item for their flavor and quality. If you don't mind a bit of unpredictability, Dairy Queen's fries are worth the order every time.“

“Whether you're craving a Blizzard, a crispy chicken basket, or just a classic cone to beat the summer heat, Dairy Queen in Winnipeg has you covered. With multiple locations across the city, it’s a go-to for families, late-night snackers, and anyone with a sweet tooth.

What makes it great:

Blizzards & Treats: From the classic Oreo Blizzard to seasonal specialties, there's always something to satisfy your cravings.

Classic Fast Food: Burgers, fries, chicken strips, and more—DQ offers a solid menu of comfort food staples.

Family-Friendly: Many locations feature play areas and are equipped with high chairs and booster seats, making it easy to dine with little ones.

Late-Night Hours: Some locations stay open until 2:00 AM on weekends, perfect for those late-night cravings.

Heads-up for fellow Winnipeggers:

Busy Times: Expect crowds during weekends and holidays, especially at popular spots like the one on Grant Avenue.

Consistency: While most locations maintain high standards, experiences can vary. Some customers have reported issues with order accuracy or food quality at certain times.“

“Wow, what a fantastic experience! The food was delicious and served with incredible speed and enthusiasm. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming, making the atmosphere great. A special shoutout to the supervisor, Muskan, who went above and beyond to make my visit memorable. I highly recommend this place and give it a definite thumbs-up!“

“Overall, there’s nothing majorly wrong here. It’s just sometimes their food can be overcooked or the staff a bit cold but that could also be because they have a lot of young people which is not surprising since they need places like this for an early job experience.
So overall good. I’m just not gonna give them a full five stars as there’s a bit of room for improvement.“

“I purchase ice cream cakes at this location w regularity (lots of b-days, lots of ice cream fans)! And the service is always fantastic. In a world where customer service seems to be going the way of the dodo bird, it really fills my heart to see these folks go above and beyond. Just witnessed staff carrying a cake and box of dilly bars out to the car of a mom with a small child on a blustery day. The mom didn’t even ask, she was told “I’ll carry this out, you already have your hands full.” Such a carrying act! I“

“Visited DQ Chill & Grill recently. We ordered the Flamethrower Combo ( menu no: 7) and the Double Deluxe Burger (menu no: 2). The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. The washrooms were also very clean. I love their atmosphere too. Great experience🙂“

“We order our kids’ birthday cakes from DQ Northgate every year. This year, the kids asked for Kirby characters! The cake decorators are so amazing—they always come through with our special requests and exceed our expectations! Very pleased ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I often go to Dairy Queen in St Vital Center. The products are good, friendly staff, and the service is fast.
I still find that the prices are a little expensive compared to the quantities supplied.
The location, there is no better, very friendly.
I recommend from time to time.“
