Tonight, Dairy King unfortunately went from being my favorite local ice cream shop to me not wanting to return.
I am 2 weeks postpartum and wanted nothing more than to have an artic swirl with butterfinger to satisfy my craving. Tonight, I was served an artic swirl with butterfinger, oreo, and pieces of STYROFOAM. For starters, they didn't get my order right initially. Then to make it worse, they served me a double cupped artic swirl. I didn't think much of the double cup at first. Little did I know the reason it was double cupped was because there was a giant hole in the bottom of the first cup. As I got down toward the bottom, I realized there was a big piece of styrofoam mixed into the ice cream. At the same moment, I realized I was chewing on a smaller piece of styrofoam. The two pieces together did not equal the giant hole that was left in the bottom. So I can only be left to assume that I had already consumed a sizable amount of styrofoam upon discovering the hole and the pieces at the bottom. Instead of making a new one when they pierced a hole in the first cup, they just put a second cup on it? Ridiculous. When we addressed this with the staff we were told "I don't know how that happened." Instead of anyone taking accountability, offering a different ice cream, or a refund. Styrofoam is the last thing I want to be ingesting. Their sign says something about having ice cream can help a tough day...well, today ice cream made my day tough. I find this to be unacceptable and disgusting. So needless to say, my family and I will not be back.

Caution you may be ripped off. We bought 2 regular ice cream soft serve cones, a large and medium (even though they were both on the small side) dipped (.75 cents for a dip) Cost was just under $18!
At the time we paid and took the cones but kept thinking can that be right? Looking online the guy definitely overcharged us.
Shame on him.
Ice cream is your average soft serve. The dip flavors were good

Enjoyed the Arctic Blast (same as a DQ Blizzard). Staff were friendly but parking lot was right up on top of seating so it wasn't great for small kids.
