“Took a whole group of students there today. One girl alone, but cheerful and helpful and served everyone with a smile. Clean, old-style ice cream parlor. Would definitely recommend!“

“Over the years everything I have had has been delicious, but the famous Banana Splits are fantastic (with extra chocolate and whipping cream it is ​😊😊😊😊😊)!“

“Such a great hole in the wall ice cream shop, they have the best ice cream and at such good prices!!“

“My 8 year old loves this place. It’s clean. People are nice. Seems like a tight ship. Yogurt & toppings always look fresh. I’d say $8 gets you a nice single experience. If you want your kid to read well at the RO library, tell them you’ll go to Yogurt City after“

“I’m honestly surprised this Dairy Queen on Rochester Road doesn’t have more love on Yelp, especially since it has tons of positive reviews on Google Maps. I also really don’t get the negative reviews. It’s Dairy Queen — you come here for ice cream, and that’s exactly what you get.
I’ve been coming to this location for years and have never really had an issue. The customer service has always been friendly and consistent, and the ice cream is always exactly what you expect it to be: fresh, cold, and delicious. Whether it’s a Blizzard, cone, or something simple, it never disappoints.
At the end of the day, it’s an ice cream spot doing what it’s supposed to do, and doing it well. I’ll keep coming back like I always have. If you’re craving ice cream and want a reliable Dairy Queen experience, this location gets the job done every time.
Highly recommend. 🍦“

“This cookie was not a dessert — it was a spiritual experience.

The Tres Leches Cake Crumbl Cookie needs to be illegal in at least 17 states. One bite and I ascended to an emotional plane where I briefly forgave my enemies, remembered childhood birthdays, and questioned if I had ever truly tasted moisture before this moment.

The cookie itself? Buttery, soft, just the right level of dense.
The tres leches topping? Creamy, rich, thick without being cloying — like the center of a good hug or the first time someone sees your worth without you asking.

And when that milk-soaked texture hit my tongue?
I audibly said “Mmmmf GOD.”
In public.

I don’t know what type of Latina abuela Crumbl summoned for this recipe, but she worked overtime. And she deserves royalties.

If you get the chance — don’t share. Don’t save. Don’t even tell your friends.
This is one of those “buy two, eat one in the car, cry a little” cookies.

Five stars. Zero regrets. More leche please.“
