Two young people working behind the counter, neither greeted us. Both looked miserable and not wanting to be there. Very uncomfortable atmosphere. Most people do not like to work but when you are dealing with customers at least fake that you are happy they are there. Ice cream was okay nothing spectacular. Definitely won't go back.

Don’t know if the guy behind the counter was the owner or not but he sure doesn’t promote his business well!
He reprimanded my 4 year old granddaughter 3 times for touching different things while we waited. He was very impatient when we were ordering and don’t think about special ordering!
There’s only about 4 tables in the place. Our table had very basic metal chairs. I guess he doesn’t want you to stay very long. Not a problem.
The sandwiches were average at best. Same for the ice cream.
Should have searched for a different ice cream shop. Just happened to be the closest to my son’s house.
Would not go back.

Place is cute, but owner acts like he doesn’t want to be there. I can believe the reviewers who said he was rude. The ice cream serving size was pathetic. Laughable. I can get three times the amount he put on my cone at Bruster’s for the same price, plus Bruster’s ice cream is always fresh and delicious. I won’t be going back.
Great selections, friendly service, fun atmosphere.
Dietary restrictions: I'd enjoy seeing a sherbet or sorbet option for my lactose-sensitive system.

The owner is the opposite of what you would expect from an ice cream shop. Crabby, unfriendly, and rude. The ice cream was below average, but even if it was the best in town I would not come here again. Service is that bad.

Service is terrible and the owner is a jerk. Store is dirty and the ice cream is stale. You are better off taking your business to Dairy Queen.

I'm shocked to see the bad reviews. I've been to this place maybe half a dozen times and I've always had a great experience. The owner, he's always been delightfully friendly & courteous, and I love the ice cream options. And the waffle bowl was delicious. I've never had their sandwiches, but I do really like coming here for the occasional ice cream treat.

Hands down the best ice cream in town! Shirley Rae's never disappoints. I appreciate that they use high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the difference in every bite.

The sandwiches were delicious we had 3 sandwiches and a small ice cream bowl and it came up to $50 quite pricey. The taste and flavor was very good, there is limit sitting inside five sitting tables inside and a clean bathroom. There are some benches outside of the shop. Very nice area.
