Good ice cream
My favorite is blueberry pie šš
Very good service.
Such a good ice cream spot! Both the hard ice cream and soft serve is delicious. Highly recommend blueberry pie when in season. Also noting that they close at 9:30pm in the summer.
Milkshakes taste like milk. Milk and foam. Their banana āfrappeā taste like your drinking melted banana laffy taffy.
You have to pay a fee to pay for ice cream which is Insane but to each their own.
They were honestly rude.
Rude Service. Loved the Purple Cow growing up, went out with my husband for a date. I have a gluten allergy, I know reeseās ice cream is usually gluten free, there was a sign but I couldnāt see it from my stand point, pointing out what was gluten free, before starting to place my order. The girl taking my order, young, brown hair, rolled her eyes at me informing her of my allergy, ok, not a big deal. Husband puts his order in while I look over what is safe. I put my order in and pay, window closes and she starts to make the ice cream. She starts talking with a coworker while working, the coworker walked over to where she was, a they both made dirty looks at us. Irritating to see the body language of someone serving you to have hostility towards you. Not the end end of the world. She hands ice cream to my husband, no problem, but hands my cup of to scoop ice cream, and shoves the ice cream in my hand, not the bowl, I had to catch the bowl with my other hand, and she closed the window. Now I am pissed. I stood there and looked at my husband in shock, now I am not leaving till I have some napkins in clean up my ice cream covered fingers. She saw me still standing there, open the window and I said ācan I have some napkins, you shoved the ice cream in my handā, she said āokā and that was it. No sorry, or I did not mean to. Wish I could take my dollar out of the tip cup. On another note, they werenāt wearing gloves. The coworker even touched her face with a ice cream cone in her hand she was feeding to someone and with her hair hanging in her face, no doubt in my mind hair touched the cone. Wasnāt my ice cream, and I donāt have the patience to tech the people behind the counter about food safety. Like you guys are touching dirty money and then peoples food. As someone who worked in the food service industry, even at a ice cream place at one point, that is so disgusting. I wish i would have been able to make a nice memory at a place I made so many at as a kid, but whom ever that girl is ruined a good time.
long lines at times and prices are high but now these days prices are high everywhere
In the year of our lord 2025 they only accept cash. Lol. Lmao. Convenient ATM nearby if you want to pay a fee so you can pay for ice cream.
Overpriced for what it is. Not very good ice cream. Artificial flavor.
Before going, now that it is cash only, but there is an ATM on site. Good variety and large portion sizes for the price! Very kind people taking orders and serving.

Ordered blue razz frozen lemonade
Itās just blue sugar water thatās frozen this is buns
Very good! Soft serve swirl and a lot of good flavors. Ice cream sandwiches are cheap.
Great ice cream and an excellent variety.
So disappointed experience, Toppings so expensive, poor portions for the expensive price, save your money and go elsewhere for lower prices and larger portions
Not only do they have the BEST ice cream, I left my wallet there and the owner attempted to deliver it to me at my house!
Support this awesome business, best ice cream around!
