“Front line crew members here are very friendly and helpful. Although I had one individual that was being a little rude. But other staff was great especially Dustin. He was in the food window and he made sure food was being pushed out in a timely manner. From the looks of it and what front line staff said Dustin is a very great leader and they love him.“

“Today 4-20-2025 I went to this location two young girls were working around 1:30 pm and I order a small Oreo Blizzard but was charged for a Medium size instead. I come here for weeks now and I know how much for the small and it’s 4.69. and not 5.15. Any ways update: 4-22-2025 around 2pm went to this location and told them about this small incident and younger lady cashier she apologized and So I bought a medium sized Oreo blizzard and got a upgraded to large to balanced it off. Thx ladies! That’s what I called taking care of your customers! I will be back again and again! Now it’s 5 stars not 1 star lols“

“This place saved me! I had a event on Tuesday for National Night Out. I was planning on brining churros for the event so I ordered with another company that canceled on me at 10am that day. I could not find anyone to accomidate such a short notice and needing 6 dozen churros! I walked in talked with the Owner over the phone and her worker and thankfully they were able to help! I placed my order at 4:40pm and walked out by 5:05, and made it to my event early enough to help set up!

The churros were a hit and everyone loved them! The team I was helping is thinking of having them cater next time they have a community event.

Thank you again to the staff and owner!“

“I love this place! Cherry Pie sundae is the best! A menu of affogati!“

“Excellent ice cream and customer service!“

“My husband and I stopped in Saturday night, pretty close to closing, and I honestly wasn’t planning on writing a review, but I felt like I had to say something about our experience.

We got a little turned around trying to find the place, so I think the sign could definitely be bigger! Once we got there, though, we were so glad we found it.

It was clearly a busy evening, with children running around and parents letting them carry on, but the lady working handled everything with a smile and never seemed stressed or rushed. She even let me sample probably way too many flavors while I made up my mind, without making me feel like I was holding up the people behind us.

What really stood out was how she actually chatted with us about life and had a genuine conversation, instead of just the usual basic small talk. She gave us her full attention and made us feel really welcome.

Before we left, I made sure to ask her name because she really stood out to us. Her name is Taylor, and I just want to give her a special shoutout. She made our visit memorable, and we truly appreciated her kindness and genuine personality. Patti’s Ice Cream is lucky to have someone like her! We’ll definitely be back.“

“Finally took my son here and we live walking distance, of course on the hottest day, business was very slow and it was after 4pm, the ice cream was very delicious, but i don’t think I’d stay to eat there , inside was swarming with flies. I even got bit by one.“

“First time trying them and unfortunately forgot to get a receipt for the four pack to start gaining points. They certainly are delicious but the staff could Definitely be more helpful and friendly. The computers and boards were not working, and nobody seemed in a hurry to come to the front counter to assist us or the other two people standing there.“

“OMG!!!! This places is magnificent, delicious, perfection!!!! Best ice cream, desserts, and amazing customer service! I had a freshly made waffle in a cup with delicious ice cream and oreo toppings.
Please stop by and you won’t regret it.“

“Absolutely loved this place. The Thai boat noodles were rich, savory, and full of authentic flavor. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food here. Great service 10/10 overall“

“10% Remember that. . Because that's the % that makes the BEST ice cream. There is a chain down south Texas - Oklahoma that makes ice cream with 10% milkfat. . Ooohhhh best. The well known previous tenant only make their ice cream with 5%. . Might seem small but it's a huge difference.

So many flavors of toppings and ice cream.
My only suggestion would be to make something similar to the blue raspberry Mr misty freeze. Maybe they had it but I didn't see the similar on the menu. . They do have the slushie machine to do it though!“

Best ice cream in the neighborhood!“

“We couldn’t have been happier with the cake! It turned out absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations. The mermaid/under-the-sea theme, colors, pearls, seashells, stars, and personalized design for Aiza’s 6th birthday were all done beautifully.

The cake not only looked amazing but was also fresh and delicious. Everyone at the party loved it, and we received so many compliments.

A big thank you to Ankit and the entire team for putting so much care and effort into making Aiza’s birthday cake so special and memorable. We truly appreciate it and would definitely recommend you to others!“

Awesome service and awesome cookie cake.The cake is kinda punny, but then so is the sense of humor who it was for.Great job Baking Betty's“

“I always love going to this particular store. My favorite treat is a large strawberry shake with extra strawberries. They never skimp on the extra strawberries, and they're Johnny on the spot at taking care of the customers waiting for their orders. I definitely recommend this store in particular.“

“Love this place!!! The ice cream is amazing with so many flavors and the staff is incredible! So happy to have them in our neighborhood!“

“We go here waaaaaay more often than I care to admit and I have to say, every single time is a joy. Not just because the food is amazing (and consistent) but because the staff are truly kind and attentive! There is always someone walking around, wiping down tables. We are always greeted with a smile. One time, my youngest daughter told one of the workers that she wanted to work at Culver’s when she grows up and they brought her a flippin’ hat! How cool is that? I mean, it’s just par for the course with this place. Phenomenal staff, great food, and our family always leaves happy.“

“Great dessert! Italian ice with frozen custard (Gelato). Been missing it since leaving the east coast. So very very yummy!!!“

“Good service and food. We were there right before closing. Great job“

“I went to Cottage Grove Culver's with a friend yesterday and was inspired to write a review because the service was well above average. My friend got the flavor of the day frozen custard, which was a devil's food cake chocolate flavor. It looked delicious and I said that out loud. One of the employees there, Brayden, overheard me say that and brought me a free sample. That was so thoughtful and the kind of service one might expect from a sit-down restaurant with servers. It makes me so happy when someone takes pride in their job and exceeds expectations. Besides the excellent service, I have always been impressed with the quality of Culver's food from burgers to salads to custard.“

“I was Happy to try the Flamethrower Burger w/Fries,along with a Medium drink/Flurry(Awesome service worthy of 10,000/10,000 of awesomeness)“

“We had Big Bell at our event for 3 different times for school events and they have never disappointed us! The staff is extremely helpful and so nice to our families. They have very reasonable items for sale without breaking the bank. I cannot recommend Big Bell enough for your next event!!“
