“We had a wonderful time. Both my kids enjoyed looking at the factory floor and sampling some ice cream. But book early as tours fill fast. They will book 2 weeks ahead of the date you are looking for.“

“My first maple creemee- and probably the best I’ll ever have!! Way to set the bar high. Real maple syrup, not too sweet, excellent.

Highly, highly recommend Zach’s Shack. Friendly family, beautiful locale with a view of the mountain, and great food. Don’t miss it!“

“We had The Udder Guys ice cream bike at wedding and it was the best! Truly the cutest looking way to get ice cream - it fit right in with our woodsy barn wedding. The ice cream was delicious, and all our guests loved it. Eli was very sweet, and the team was communicative and professional leading up to the wedding!“

“PB S'more: New from Ben & Jerry’s (BJ’s) for 2024, this flavor is meant to evoke thoughts of the classic campfire dessert with a peanut butter twist. The base ice cream is a toasted marshmallow that has chunks of peanut butter cups, graham cracker pieces, and marshmallow swirls. By itself, the marshmallow ice cream is a bit boring and comes off as a somewhat bland sweet flavor, but thankfully the inclusion of the signature BJ's gooey marshmallow swirls and other mix-ins alleviates this potential problem. Short tangent, this is similar to BJ's other delicious s'mores ice cream (Gimme S'more). The big difference is the marshmallow flavor shines more in PB S'more as in Gimme S'more it gets somewhat masked by the chocolate cookie flavor and omitted marshmallow swirl. Of the three flavors in PB S'more, I detected mostly marshmallow and graham cracker as the peanut butter cups are not as numerous as the graham cracker pieces and omnipresent marshmallow flavor. Although the peanut butter cups are sparser (there's still plenty) than the graham cracker pieces, when encountered they do tend to be larger chunks (a fair trade-off in my opinion). In fact, I found one peanut butter cup that was entirely intact and not simply a chunk (see picture). My only complaint is that my pint could have used a more predominant marshmallow swirl. The swirl appears lugubrious if it can even be seen at all. Those of you looking for a peanut butter ice cream might be slightly disappointed, but for s'mores lovers, this is nearly perfect.

“Nice little shop. Plenty of items to choose from. With a little cafe place to sit down and eat. Enjoyed a few minutes there. Grab a couple of items while we were there. A little more money than I wanted to spend, but the best time to buy something is when it is in front of you. We'll worth the extra buck or two for specialty chocolates.
I would recommend this place to those looking for good chocolate and a quick a snack.“
