“Food was hot and service was great. Ask for J.J. he is Dynamite!!!“

“Nice outdoir area and only place at Holden Beach with homemade ice cream AND homemade waffle cones!“

“Love going to Moo Town for a special treat! The staff is friendly and there's a great selection of flavors. Even my grandson with a dairy allergy is able to get something.“

“Fantasy Isle is fabulous! I have been coming to Holden Beach for many years and always visit here for ice cream at least a couple of times during our stay. I love their ice cream and have enjoyed several rounds of putt putt golf here. I love that they are trying to encourage you to visit their neighboring business even though that business doesn't seem to have the same communal attitude. Thanks for trying to be the "bigger person" Fantasy Isle!“

“The homemade Italian Ice!!“

“The BEST banana splits!! We make it a point to stop in at least once if not twice each year we are visiting the beach.“

“Great homemade ice cream and good service. We love coming here on our summer vacation every year“

“Went to The Scoop Sunday morning and ordered a bacon, egg & cheese sandwich just as I have numerous times through the years. I was told that they no longer served it on toast, so I would have to choose a bagel. I asked why I couldn't get it on toast and I was told... "They were selling to many of them on toast, and not enough on bagels, so they quit offering it on toast. That way they would have enough bread to make a kids' grilled cheese". I am still shaking my head!!“

“Went to DQ on way to the beach last week, Had great customer service from the lady who we found out was the manager who not only whipped up some amazing Sundaes and peanut buster parfaits for a big group of us but did it with out missing a step and always kept smiling, We enjoyed our stop and will definitely be back. Thank you again“

“Place has a good selection of hard ice cream flavors. A lot of seats inside and outside overlooking the ocean. Also arcades with some games.“

“Sunset Slush is hands down the best! It’s the first thing our family does when we get to OIB and the last thing we do on our way out. Nothing beats the excitement of seeing the yellow and black umbrella miles down the beach, headed your way! We’ve never had a bad experience, even when it takes our kids forever to choose their flavor combos! Love the new locations on OIB & in Calabash! ☀️☀️“

“We love Sunset Slush so much our daughter (we live in Iowa) wanted some of her Senior pictures there! Thanks to Kristen @ Reflections of Moments Photography for making that a reality! And thanks to you and your staff for our nightly slush run that happens for the best two weeks every summer!“

“I went to this ice cream shop in the morning and, although there weren’t many people, the service was excellent. The girl and the boy who attended me were very kind and always had a smile, which made the experience even more pleasant. The ice cream was delicious, with a creamy texture and well-balanced flavors. My favorite was definitely the strawberry one: fresh and with a natural taste. Definitely a place I would return to for more flavors.“

“My husband and I have been buying donuts here for about two years. By far the best in the area. I had to write today to tell you the crew this morning was by far the absolute best in our two years. The young lady running the crew was amazing. She was in constant contact with the two young men working with her and acknowledged just about every customer as they came in the door. To be honest it was the busiest we have seen it and we were in and out in the same amount of time we have been in the past with only one or two people in front of us, Today there were about twelve in front of us. She was friendly and it ran like a well oiled machine.“

“Got a macchiato and a cappuccino. 2 small coffees cost as much as coffee from Starbucks (and yeah those are a con). It pains me to say that I would probably rather the Starbucks coffee as these were a tad too sour to ignore ESPECIALLY at that price. Regardless, it’s a local joint and I wish them the best. Cheers ☕️“
