The yogurt is reasonably priced and there is always a nice selection of flavors and toppings. Awesome establishment! ?“

“If you’re looking for the ultimate ice cream indulgence, this is the place. The ice cream is full-fat, ultra-creamy, and absolutely packed with flavor — no shortcuts or watered-down taste here. Every bite is rich and satisfying, just like real ice cream should be. The cookies are perfectly soft and chewy, making the ice cream sandwiches feel homemade but elevated. You can tell they care about quality — from the unique flavor pairings to the textures. And the servings? Huge. These sandwiches are no joke — they’re big enough to share (but you probably won’t want to). This shop is a must-visit for any dessert lover. Forget the low-fat stuff — this is how ice cream is meant to be enjoyed!“

“Excellent value and super friendly staff! Dutch Creek uses delicious Blue Bell ice cream and scoops generously. This is two dips for $5. It’s creekside, too, so you can sit at a picnic table in the shade and enjoy your treat. Highly recommend. I paid more for a cone one-fifth this size in Banner Elk one day before this one. This was especially wonderful to enjoy after that sad experience.“

“You'll know you're near when you start smelling the chocolate and fudge! Variety of options to choose from. The treats were very good, my only complaint is the prices. I got the smallest cup available for ice cream and it was almost $8. My husband purchased some fudge & 3 chocolate covered pretzels-That was $20.“
