“amazing place its so yoummy“

“Fruity Pebbles Shake is my new favorite. Absolutely have to add the scoop of ice cream to any Smoothie. Happy Saturday. Love this place.“

“Sweet Jenny’s is a staple for our family. We never have a holiday table without chocolate from here. Teacher gifts are a must. Summer ice cream trips making memories! Everything here is amazing, including the owners. If your visiting the Buffalo area this place is a must see, we always bring out of towners here! Thanks for being such an awesome part of our community!“

“This is our new favorite place for ice cream. The ice cream is so delicious and there are a ton of flavors. It is really big inside and there's lots of seating outside.

They have different flavors all the time and it's always busy but in a good way! The line moves very fast.“

“I would love to give a very positive review but as of right now I cannot every time I go to the hertel location there always out of milk . the regular ice cream is great but I only do milkshakes cause I drive alot please fix y'all's problem of running out of milk.“

“Staff is super friendly and fast service“

“A Buffalo institution and one of my must visit place(s) if I'm in the area. Personally, I like the original Anderson's location on Sheridan (in Tonawanda) better than the other locations. But this one is not bad. Only got a twist of chocolate and vanilla custard this time but I've had majority of the items on the menu. The custard is always creamy and flavorful. Try one of the special flavors, like pistachios or strawberry, if they have it. You won't regret it and it's worth the calories.

Dietary restrictions: Dairy

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly - who doesn't like custard/ice cream?

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“This Dairy Queen is amazing! It’s right near me so it’s an easy walk, and usually the lines aren’t crowded and the staff are really nice! The atmosphere is nice and the food is great just a bit melty but you can grab a few napkins then you are fine.“

“Best Hot Fudge and chocolate around! Amazing Staff!“

“So the ice cream is expensive but somewhat worth it for the location. For homemade ice cream it's either here or sweet Jenny's ( which has more flavors) excellent home town place with a great vibe. Thier chicken tenders and curly fries are about the only food you will have know while eating here. Thier staff is always super friendly and great.“

“was great ice cream and great service and great company!!“

“Very good food. Lots to choose from and the frozen custard is so yummy!“

“No I don’t recommend French Road Dairy Queen. The workers are rude. Online says they’re open until 10 so my kids and I ride our bikes a couple miles to French road Dairy Queen looking for a tasty treat. On arrival the inside area is already closed at 9:45. Drive thru is open since they don’t have a walk up window like every other ice cream shop I figured I could get served at the drive thru window. NOPE. No ice cream for you they say like I’m in the Sienfeld episode The soup Nazi only it’s ice cream. My kids and I were so disappointed. The ride home was treacherous with no calories in our systems. We barely made it home Sincerely Disappointed customer“

“Wonderful, cute shop to stop for a sundae, milkshake or ice cream to go. Also, 1/2 gallons are reasonably priced & better than the brands from grocery stores. Chocolates are scrumptious and hard to resist. Indoor & outdoor seating. Highly recommend!“

“The ice cream was delicious and it is made on site. I got the creme brulee and the biscoff which were both very good. They are reasonably priced and the staff were friendly. There a few tables inside to sit and some benches outside. They also have toppings but the ice cream was good enough without them. They do ice cream, milkshakes, and espresso/coffee. They also have some prepacked tubs you can buy.

Vegetarian options: All vegetarian

Kid-friendliness: No specific kids cup but they have single scoop options which I think is good

Wheelchair accessibility: First floor and completely flat“

“Loganberry slushee yummmm“

“I love their Dilly bars and Buster bars!!♥️♥️♥️🤍🤍💙💙🎉🎊🎉🎊“

“Went to Rt 20 ice cream tonight for the first time this season and had the worst service I have ever had in my life. I ordered 2 small flurries and proceeded to wait 20 mins for them to be made while 2 people behind me in line got their same item ahead of me. I was asked what I and I told the employee and they said nothing. This was a terrible experience at a place I have been going for years that generally has good if not great service. The biggest thing is that it was not even busy. Terrible...“

“I loved your cookies! Tried your white chocolate chip macadamia nut and some of my friend’s triple chocolate chip cookie she got. I was in heaven! Definitely coming back soon! Keep up the good work! :)“

“Always a fun outing with the kiddos ! Super clean well organized. It is a pleasure to go there

Parking: Lot behind the building easy access

Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring the grandkiddos!
Lots of kid loved toppings and yogurt flavors to choose from !“

“Helpful staff, outdoor & indoor safe seating, lots of food & ice cream choices.“

“We stopped here last night after we noticed it across the street from the restaurant we were having dinner at for my granddaughter. It was a little pricey for 6 cookies but I guess you get what you pay for! Ordering was very easy and our order was ready very quickly. They even gave my granddaughter a free cookie for her birthday. The store is so clean and the workers were so friendly and helpful. The Maple Sandwich cookie was hands down the best ( the one I did not want to try!) my Granddaughter loved the Caramel Apple flavor. We will definitely be repeat customers.“

“A great variety of shakes, ice creams ?etc.Great to visit on a very hot summer evening.Ice cream is very tasty.Totally family oriented, you can get your ice cream and sit around and eat, enjoy some fun time talking with family & friends.“

“Emilee (I don’t think I spelled her name correctly) and Liam were 2 of the nicest employees I’ve dealt with! They were very helpful and soo nice! I was kinda miserable when I went in, but left with a smile on my face! Thank you to you 2! Thank you for making me smile! You don’t know how much I needed that! I will return! Plus your ice cream is amazing!“

“all the low reviews on this are wrong and i’ll tell you why! first of all: the yogurt is always busting! that’s what’s most important right? the remarks on the service are mostly based on rude customers and not the workers. i love seeing the pretty women work and make my yummy treats! yum!!!! the wide selection of toppings and the flavors of yogurt are pleasant - even if i get the same thing every time. i do suggest more fruit options on being added to the toppings. every time i get a bowl i scream “hooray!”.“

“I love their sponge candy. I live in St Louis but have family in Lancaster. I am so thrilled they are shipping again. Just received my first pound box today. Will be ordering again soon! Best sponge candy ever!!!!!“

“Learned about Golden Hour Treats on Grubhub when I typed in ice cream. Oh boy! I had a banana split which was the best I've ever had. The boys had the cotton candy ice cream and were very happy. I then went back in 2 days and had the banana pudding. I intended to eat a few bites and save the rest...well that didn't happen! Delicious!! Atmosphere is clean and the staff are nice if a little slow. It's definitely worth a trip.“

“Very cute Cafe, delightful staff, and some REALLY delicious treats. My wife and I tried the salted caramel and the biscotti gelato flavors, and they were superb! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I mean, it's DQ, amiright? Not artisan crafted ice cream, but sometimes it's the scratch the itch needs. One note: we stopped in for the Peanut Buster Parfait, and my wife asked for whipped cream, which, I don't know why, I didn't know was an option. The guy next to us was buying a big box of Buster Bars along with a PB Parfait (super fan!). He must have heard us and when the employee brought the parfait, he asked for whipped cream. Of course, the transaction was complete, and she said, "Oh, well, whipped cream is extra, uhhh...well, I can just ring it up and..." He politely just said nevermind , but I'm like, dude just gave you like $40, give him the 5c of whipped cream. Not the employee's fault, she was just following her rules. But managers have to train people to make simple judgement calls. Manager was standing there and I hope she was occupied and didn't hear the request, because that was a missed opportunity for awesome customer service.“

“Just an absolutely beautiful storefront on Delaware avenue and Victoria boulevard. Smackdab in the middle of this lovely little village. This place has the best local candy/sweets by far, maybe even in the whole country. That sponge candy though!“

“was so good definitely going back“

“This place is literally amazing. There's candy, ice cream, drinks, food, and everything has a nice set up. Overall everything is clean, looks nice, and the workers are really sweet. An awesome place.“

“Watson's has become a go-to part of my weekly self-care routine. Cashier James is the picture of customer service, warmth, and generosity. Large ice cream portions, delicious chocolates (available by the piece or pound), great hours, and affordable pre-Elmwood-surge pricing. I couldn't recommend Watsons more!“

“Have stopped in and buying different treats here for years and still get plenty of new, sweet, surprises all the time. Everyone in the family love to come and pick their own sweet rewards. Love their milk-chocolate, orange, sponge candy! You can join their rewards system to earn points and get future discounts.“

“Since I became extremely lactose intolerant, eating out is always a disappointment. Not here! I could trust everything on the menu. I took a vegetarian friend and one with no food restrictions and we loved everything we ordered. Super friendly staff, great service and the food was outstanding. Mac and cheese, yes please!“

“up until today i have just bought my furbabies Connie's awesome doggie sundaes and nothing really for myself. Well today i went and purchased her homemade cherry and red raspberry pie. Even if I wanted to i could never pass them off to friends or family as mine. I have never had a pie that amazing. . And that was the very first raspberry pie I ever tried and the only one I will ever eat. My daughter wants her pies inplace of a birthday cake!! You will never go elsewhere for pie again that I can guarantee..Connie is an amazing woman. kind,friendly and greets you with a big smile.“

“Such a sweet lady. Food is always fresh and amazing and great for feeding the family“

“the vanilla custard is the best very creamy delicious“

“Drove 30 min to wait over 1 hr for two tacos. Kitchen was fully staffed two people at counter. All orders were taking 40 plus min. Also maybe tell People that before they order n not after. 4 tables in dining room we all waited over an hr. The Uber eats guys waited an hr also once they got there. The $16 for pretzel bites n cheese to high. We also were a little disappointed to hear the one girl offer numerous customers free chips or ice cream for a 5 star review on fb. Food was good. Counter woman very friendly. Clean dinning room.“

“Thank you to the kind person/employee that turned in my purse to the office. It’s great to know there are still kind and honest people in this world! It made my error in judgement a bit more bearable. Much appreciated! 😊“

“I have missed it being open. can't wait. the best. nice staff as well.“

“Surprisingly spectacular little place. My family got split up, half going to Niagara and stopped at the border so about 5 of us stopped here while we waited. We had some sandwiches, pizza and pasta. Its a simple place, so don't expect much more than a tasty meal, on a paper plate, but we came away happy and full.“

“Awesome food get the mozzarella sticks!!“

“It was our first time and it was delicious“
