“Great to have 402 Creamery up in the Highlands!“

“Jonah was a one man show (only one working)with such a good attitude and smiled throughout all the incoming business. I counted over 50 people while we sat there enjoying our ice cream. I told this young man how much we appreciated him and he was very humble.“

“Very kind, fast and honest 💜 Variety of flavors to choose from 💜 last but not least they found my keys and kept them safe 💜 Thanks🫵🏾“

“Lived in Lincoln from 1970-1988. Zesto's hot fudge sundaes were consistently a highlight. We were back in town for a visit and I was tickled to find out they are STILL as great as ever! Service by Ella was fine, and still lots of lovely shade to relax in while enjoying our treats !“

“They came to my husbands 40th birthday party we hosted at our house and it was a hit with everyone there!! Pricing was reasonable, they were on time (early even!) and had a ton of great options to choose from! We are definitely hoping to use them in the future.“

“Definitely recommend taking the drive to Dairy Joe’s in Emerald! They have amazing ice cream, delicious pizza, and friendly service:). There’s some indoor seating and outdoor seating. A cute place to cool off in the summer!“

“The absolute best Dairy Queen around!“

“Hands down best Ice cream in Lincoln !!!“

“The ice cream is great. Nice selection of flavors. It has a nice silky texture, very creamy and smooth.“

“It's normally a good clean place, obviously the consensus with people I've talked to is, is that it's extremely pricey and it would be nice if they would change their flavors up more often. Other than that I am a repeat customer about 4 to 5 times a year and again I know they are trying to make money and run a business and I get that but everyone and I mean everyone I've talked to says it's way too expensive but the flavors are usually extremely tasty“

“Hands down, the best ice cream in town!! 🍦 The monthly speciality flavors are always sooo good!“

“This is such a fun place to visit after a trip to pioneers Park. It's convient and quick. The young girls working there are sweet and fun.. its nice to see young people taking the initiative to get out and work to become self sufficient. Lots of smiles and laughter out here even when they're busy.
The raspberry Sunday is delicious!“

“Excellent ice cream and great, friendly service.“

“The lady working there is an absolute gem!“

“2 scoop with mocha fudge pop tart and dutch chocolate in a waffle cone (sooo good)

The waffle cone is mint oreo (also very good)

One thing to note is that the ice cream melts extremely fast so the cones were a little messy“

“Yummy ice-cream and great service!!“

“Always come here and they never disappoint. The drinks are super good and so is the food. Customer service is always great and very nice people with a calm welcoming atmosphere. I recommend coming here to anybody weather it's alone, with a significant other, or family. the BEST Neveria in Nebraska hands down!!“

“Ordered online as a surprise for my son in college. Found out that the order never made it to him. I called the store and spoke with Natasha. She had the order remade and delivered to my son within minutes. Definitely went above and beyond. Fabulous customer service and follow through.“

“Each time I have gone in, it has been easy to place my order and when they give me my order and show me to make sure it all looks good is amazing

Kid-friendliness: There is room for children to run around outside and they have the cookies out on display which is amazing for children

Wheelchair accessibility: There are ramps“

“Absolutely delicious! Traveled to Nebraska to visit my best friend and wanted to try somewhere she hasn’t been as well. We stopped here and everyone was incredibly kind answering our questions and the food was as amazing! I hope to find a place in Ohio as good as this!“

“I was very impressed with my recent visit to yoguritni. I will say that I felt like some flavors were missing, there was rainbow sherbet advertised on the wall but wasn’t there. Overall, I really enjoyed the amazing toppings and frozen yogurt flavors. It was a nice and refreshing stop. The staff was so friendly, and they definitely engage the customers more than Cherry on Top. This is my new go-to froyo spot!“

“We treated ourselves to ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery tonight. Our server, Ellie cheerfully greeted us as we walked into the store. As we were deciding on our order, she offered suggestions as to what we may like.
After ordering, Ellie prepared our order promptly and kept a friendly smile on her face.
After we paid she thanked us politely and as we left the store, thanked us again. Thank you Ellie, for great service!“

“Delicious yogurt - perfect now that warm weather is here! 😋 I highly recommend this shop“

“Amazing food at a very reasonable price. You get served quickly and the food is always really tasty. I’ve never been disappointed when I go here. I’m happy it’s in the neighbourhood so when I don’t feel like cooking but don’t want to make my wallet cry I can walk here and get some good food“

“Clean, well-staffed Culvers location that provided us great and quick service. My wife and I had the Sourdough Melt ButterBurgers, fries, steamed broccoli, and a chocolate frozen custard. We walked 1.7 miles from our hotel to eat here a were very pleased with the delicious and fulfilling meal provided.“

“Love this place, wonderful employees and they give great pup cups!“

“Food is excellent and so is the service!“

“We live close to this location, and I must say the team and the food are always awesome. As a matter of fact, we love the team here so much we decided to use our coupons to get a basketball, have the entire team sign it, and add it to our sports memorabilia collection! What a team!“

“I love freddy’s. Always have and always will. This freddy’s is one of the best that I’ve been too. Cleanliness is great and the customer service is immaculate. Keegan took our order and was very friendly and started a conversation with us. He also went and looked for seasoning packets for us.“

“We love Freddy’s ❤️ great food and great service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I have serious food allergies. I went to this location on 7/8/24. The staff member that helped me (unfortunately I did not get his name) went above and beyond. I watched him wipe down the machine and he took the ime to recognize my needs. A wonderful experience.“

“Loved the food the slushies could use more syrup on the .79¢ Monday nights but since it’s that price I can’t complain to much. After asking workers they usually overflow with syrup which is nice for the kids they love the sugar, have been give unsellable food in return like mozzarella sticks or fries great place good staff.“

“Dairy Queen on West O is getting a bit old but still well kept up. The food is decent fir the price. I like Runza icecream better, but the deals on the 2 for $5 or $6 menu for the grill are very reasonable! My 6 year old loves the Chicken strip kids meal. We went there after church today and for 4 adults and three kiddos it was under $35.“

“The ocean is still Dairy Queen. But our order wasn’t correct. We didn’t go back through the drive through because the line was so long. We ordered a PB parfait with chocolate ice cream and got vanilla“

“We ordered online and it wasn't ready when we got there. There wasn't a worker at the cash register, had to wait to talk to someone. Wondered if not enough workers on duty. Our hamburgers were barely warm, but tasted good. The strawberry shakes were the best.“

“The lady at the front greeted me very rudely, screamed at the staff that I was there for a mobile order, and then slammed my food on the counter as I politely said, thank you very much! No response. I will say though, that the burger I had was one of the best I've had it years. Great quality and fresh!“

“We haven’t been to this location for over a year. Our ice cream was always icey and not creamy. Since they advertised new owners we decided to give this place a try and I am really pleased with the ice cream! It was thicker and more like the original DQ ice cream. I hope the quality stays! Thank you!“
