This is a must visit ice cream shop! You get your money's worth for great ice cream. The Halloween decorations are fantastic! It is cash only so dont worry, they have an ATM!

Ice cream was delicious, portion sizes were very big, only 'con' I can think of is only certain items on the menu have prices listed. So for being cash only its hard to determine how much cash you need.

Me and three other people went and purchased different sundaes and after an hour we all were spraying in the bathroom, we all payed $10 a piece to have upset stomachs and diarrhea, this is not a joke review, so if you go here don’t get a sundae!

Great ice cream for good prices. Fast service, though I've never been there when there was a crazy line. Has a drive thru which is very convenient

Got the pumpkin pie ice cream sundae with pumpkin ice cream not vanilla. It was ABSOLUTELY delicious 😋. So excited they added this to their menu. Really enjoyed all the animatronic statues too while visiting the scoop.
Staff is so friendly. ❤️this place
Keep up the good work!

Delicious creamy hard serve ice cream with generous portion sizes, although my ice cream had ice crystals in parts of it like it had been frozen for too long. The hard ice cream has a good amount of mix-ins and is very thick, a good quality ice cream. It was about $10 for two small bowls of hard serve ice cream, which is pretty comparable to other ice cream spots.

We parked and walked up to the storefront, but they also have a drive-thru option that was pretty busy.

They do not have any prices posted, which makes it challenging to decide what to get as they have a very extensive menu. They also don’t always have all of the hard ice cream flavors advertised in stock, though this trip they had marked with checks on the menu board which flavors were available. It would be nice to have the shopping experience be a bit more customer-friendly, especially for those of us who are new to the shop.

Great selection

Pros: Nice atmosphere for seating, wide menu selection
Cons: Expensive, No prices listed, cash only, Cashier was not friendly, Hard scoop ice cream and toppings tastes like freezer that needs defrosted and sanitized.

3 cones and 1 specialty ice cream cost $30 The Coffee and Oreo hard ice cream as well as the brownie “meatballs” tasted like dirty freezer. I returned the coffee ice cream and asked for something fresh. Cashier said the coffee ice cream was just opened. I opted for a soft serve vanilla as a replacement and wasn’t offered a refund for the difference in price.

Final thoughts: If I ever return, I would only get the soft serve ice cream as it seems to be the only safe choice from the menu.

Patrick Tunstall

Expensive as hell. But hey, what isn’t in 2025. $19 for 2 people to have a sweet treat. Won’t be back.

Ronald Renwick
