“Went back for a 2nd time (2days in a row), customer service was still top tier, and the drinks were amazing. I brought my husband with me for a post workout drink. I ordered a protein lemonade pomegranate & wild berry flavor. It was absolutely delicious. I was so flavorful. It was a little too sweet so I brought it home and watered it down a little. My husband got an ice cream sandwich flavored shake. Tasted exactly like an ice cream sandwhich. Both were loaded with at least 22-23g of protein!“

“We get takeout for lunch once a week. Usually a chicken strip or cheeseburger basket. Have been going here for over a year now.

In the beginning, the fountain drinks were the same as we’ve had anywhere. However, in the last two months all of the drinks we have gotten tasted off. Didn’t matter what it was. I believe that something has changed with the water at this facility.

Other than they the food has always been tasty and hot.“

“On our condensed Route 66 trip and we did not want to miss this! There is so much to pick from! You order outside and they have benches right outside the parking area to sit. There is also a gift shop right across the parking lot. I got a concrete mixer of chocolate, vanilla, and raspberry, and I added hazelnuts. It was so good! Don't miss out on this historical gem!“

“They have puppy pops for dogs! Thank you!“

“Best ice cream around! Good amount of VEGAN choices...just wish more were available daily without chocolate. Delicious!!!“

“Sugarwitch is a queer-owned business with a few rotating vegan options for their ice cream sandwiches. They serve drinks (coffee, tea, & specials) and also make custom ice cream cakes. Sugarwitch is frequently selling their sandwiches at Tower Grove’s Farmer’s Market as well as hosting/sponsoring other community events. They also gave me some free vegan peach almond “hexes” with my order once when I suggested expanding their vegan options in an online order. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-15“

“This place is the best! Fantastic custard, wonderful service and even better location. My boys enjoying their custard while watching for trains.“

“My two favorites are the bramble berry crisp and the wild berry lavender. The darkest chocolate is really good and pairs well with the wild berry lavender. We recently went and they had a few galaxy themed ice cream flavors. My son got super moon and really liked it. I wasn’t a huge fan be he’s tore it up. I got nebula berry, which was tasty 😋. However, purple star born captured my heart. Sounds weird to say but it was absolutely delicious and I’m thinking about going back to see if they sell this in a pint. Which says something because I can’t stand grape flavored foods -other than grapes- and I loved it so much. Reminds me of like a sprinkling white grape juice. I also couldn’t leave out of there without grabbing a pint of the bramble berry crisp. They have options for dairy free so this is definitely a place I would recommend and have recommended to friends,family and coworkers. You just don’t find ice cream flavors like these anywhere else..“

“A great local ice cream shop and sweets store. They have lots of different flavors of ice cream, plenty of candy, and a dirty soda bar.
They have a really nice patio outside that you can sit on with the kids, or sit at the bar inside the store.

This is a local small owned business that has a few locations. Parking can be a little tricky on the street sometimes but if you park in the parking lot after the side, it’s really easy.

Rotating flavors - but my favorite is the Italian cookie flavor. Also had a brownie.

Employees are super helpful, lots of free samples, and a great price.“

“I absolutely love The Fountain on Locust! It is by far one of my favorite restaurants in St. Louis! The food is amazing and the dessert is always the perfect way to end the meal! Every time I have been to The Fountain on Locust, I have left happier than when I came in! The staff is very welcoming and they always do a great job, providing top-tier service!“

“The frozen custard was excellent. So far, it is the best concrete I have had: rich, creamy and full of flavour.

The only downsides were the location, which felt a little rough around the edges, and the service. The staff were not particularly warm/welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was not especially inviting.“

“Sometimes these cookies can be old, it depends on the week! I realkk Li t wish they would’ve had customized cookies that you can make and choose instead of waiting for a weekly lineup to get the cookie you want. Other than that, they safe amazing!!!“

“Scoops of Joy served ice cream to our neighbors in Frontenac at our recent Ice Cream Social and Open House. Not only was the ice cream delicious, it came in ten different flavors! Bridget, the employee who served at our occasion, was delightful, patient and excellent with small children. You will find owner Sandy Daniels to be a friendly and organized partner in helping you to plan your event. I highly recommend Scoops of Joy!“

“I made a pretty big birthday order and somehow door dash got things confused - I didn't get what I ordered. I called the Watson Store and Haley and the crew were on it. Fixed everything and had a new order to me within an hour. You guys are great!!! Cookies aren't bad either. :)“

“Great service, amazing gelato!“

“I love the ice cream but jeez go easy on the workers! I’d feel so feminine pullin up to work in a damn tuxedo to make some ice cream. Also DONT intentionally throw glass they get so mad?! Like what world are we living in? An ice cream cone? Anywhos they make a killer strawberry shake but total geek making it in the back (He left his bow tie at home). Lastly I’d lake to say no one is going to use your chess board, we’re here for ice cream not the science fair. #ImOVERweis“

“I was on lunch break was told food would be done in 10 minutes. waited 30. got back to work very late. To top it off the food was disgusting. I'm not sure if there was even a burger patty provided. what was om the sandwich was an over abundance of mayo and mustard like I guess I ordered a mustard and mayo sandwich. It was messy made the bun soggy and just all around gross. I was going to bring all my kidd back to eat and will NEVER EAR HERE AGAIN. A REFUND IS WANTED. 27 DOLLARS FOR 2 BURGERS 2 DRINKS AND 1 FRY AND THE PLAIN CHEESEBURGWR HAD ONIONS ON IT WASNT SUPPOSE TO. NEEDLESS TI SAY NO ONE ATE THEIR MEAL WE ORDERED ELSE WHERE AND I SUGGEST SKIPPING PAST THIS PLACE. NOT WORTH THE TIME IR MONEY WASTED.“

“Amazing owner! So sweet and personable. I forgot my phone in the bathroom and she came three hours after closing to help me get it. We live out of state and were panicking. Absolutely grateful. She also makes amazing looking cupcakes!“

“Love, kids love, friendly staff !“

“Amazing food and drink! Customer service was very nice!“

“Took another trip to Crumbl yesterday to celebrate my friend's birthday. The cookies are excellent, and we always try new recipes whenever we stop in. The Gingerbread cookie, OMG, it was delicious and the lineup for Christmas has been awesome. Thanks Crumbl, keep doing your thing!!!!!!“

“Super pricey but good quality ice cream. A good splurge every once in a while.“

“We got the large vanilla shaved ice, it was amazing! It was so creamy, the texture was perfect, not overly sweet and the strawberries added such a nice balance. The large size was huge, my husband and I shared it easily. 10/10, can’t wait to go back and try out some of the other flavors of the shaved ice and to try their teas“

“Even in the middle of winter, Silky’s Frozen Custard in Ellisville is absolutely worth the stop. Their turtle sundae is one of the best around, with rich, creamy custard topped with warm caramel, hot fudge, and perfectly toasted pecans. It’s the kind of treat that makes you forget the cold as soon as you take a bite. The staff is always so friendly, and every visit feels welcoming and quick no matter how chilly it is outside. If you haven’t been to Silky’s in a while, or you’re debating going because it’s winter, go anyway. It’s worth it every time.“

“We ordered a huge order and it was ready at requested time and the food was amazing!!! We had 48 chicken strips and 12 orders of fries with sauces. Everyone loved the food and it was so filling we had a ton of left overs!!!“

“Great, friendly staff. Kids really enjoyed watching their rainbow snow cone get made right in front of them on the counter. Ice cream was delicious too!“

“Jade did an excellent job. Very polite and friendly“

“We went yesterday after a hot but wonderful trip to the zoo. When I tell you the staff was probably the most amazing people I’ve ever come in contact with…I would not be lying! They were beyond friendly & sweet which is the best to encounter when you’re a tourist! The ice cream was top notch & I can’t stop raving about! Thank you for a great sweet treat ❤️“

““The Fro-Yo Kingdom Where My Spoon Became a Sword”

If you ever wander into Menchie’s in Fenton expecting an ordinary yogurt stop… prepare for a flavor adventure. The self-serve bar looks like Willy Wonka’s frozen dessert lab, with enough topping choices to make your inner five-year-old squeal. Reviewers say the variety is a major draw. 
• Vegan or avoiding dairy? They’ve got you covered. One fan mentioned at least two vegan options (“pomegranate” and “pineapple” sorbet flavors) that don’t make you feel like you’re being punished for your dietary choices. 
• Friendly and clean enough—they’re keeping the machines running and smiles on deck. 
• The self-serve model means you’re the master of your dessert destiny—go wild piling on fruits, sauces, sprinkles (or all three). Just remember: your cup’s weight is your bill’s weight. One wise vegan reviewer gave this tip:
“be careful with the toppings b/c it’s priced by weight so it can get pricey quickly!” 

My highlight reel:
• Walked in hungry, walked out triumphant (and sticky around the edges because I might have overloaded the peanut-butter sauce).
• Felt like royalty perched on a bench with a bowl full of colors and textures.
• Staff were nice, machines were cold, options were endless.
• Bonus: for kids (and kid-hearts): chaos is welcomed, laughing encouraged, topping globs accepted.

So here’s the verdict:
If you’re in Fenton and in the mood for fro-yo that doesn’t just fill a sweet craving but owns it, this is your spot. Go bold. Load up. Taste test everything. Bring a friend to argue over who gets the last gummy bear topping. I’ll be back (and yes, I’ll likely tilt the flavor meter toward “ridiculous”).“

“We can't wait to see baby Jet, the new elephant!“

“One of the best places to go for a great snowcone I've been known to family for years and they've really built it in to a very nice business. Try one girls &guys.“

“The snow monster is my favorite. Love it. But the s’mores jackhammer was delicious.“

“Awesome!!!!!!! Love this place very delicious and fun!!!!“

“Great staff and great service. We enjoy them, all year round.“

“Great service with a wide selection of froyo options. My husband and I both got froyo and a boozy beverage. Loved everything! We stayed a played cards for a bit, such a great idea to have games! Fun for all ages. (Discovered my husband doesn’t know how to play uno 🤣)“

“Ice cream was delicious! Variety of handscooped flavors. Perfect for any craving.
The food sounded amazing! But we arrived 25 mintues before closing. On a holiday weekend. Poor girl alone as a late crowd walked in. Felt terrible for her. Can tell she was overwhelmed as each new guest appeared, 8:40, 8:45, 8:56, still new groups walking in. And if you do ANYTHING but a scoop or 2 into a bowl or cone, game over. Shame on whomever scheduled 1 closer on memorial day weekend.
If you arrive late, be patient. But I can say. It's worth the wait. I had the latte themed one. With chocolate chunks. Perfect way to end a beautiful sunday. And my niece got a cute keepsake in the form of a baseball helmet for only $1.50 more.“

“this is a wonderful place to eat i love it very beautiful vibe and very clean and neat and relaxing I love it yes go check this place out yall it's my new go to forever“

“Awesome shaved ice at great prices. It’s hard for my family of 6 to go out for a treat, but Wally’s doesn’t break the bank.“

“The lobby was kept amazingly clean and the hostess (Anita) was vey pleasant and friendly. She offered me a free cup of coffee for dining inside.“

“they hook you up there with whatever you want“

“The staff were very personable, and inviting. I had such a great experience! The food was hot and delicious also. We were a party of 20+ and they took care of us very well. I’d definitely return! I think there were only two people running the kitchen but if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it based on the service.“
