I ordered online and when you order chicken strips, you have to get the basket. If you order at the drive up, you can choose, basket or just the strips. Anyway, turned out the best thing about the meal was the onion rings. I ordered Sauced & Tossed Honey BBQ chicken strips. They were too soggy and too much sauce on them for my taste. I didn't like the flavor of the sauce. Not my favorite.If you order online, DO NOT PICK UP AT DRIVE-THRU. Even though my order was ready, I had to wait for the order ahead of me to be ordered (she had to think about what she wanted), paid for, prepared, and delivered through the window before I could retrieve my order. I'm hoping it works out better for an inside pick-up.My Blizzard had really tiny pieces of Heath Bar in it. I could barely taste them. When I got to the bottom, it was better. The bottom tasted like normal. But I wish I could have tasted them all the way through. I'll give it a try another time and update the review. Maybe it sat there too long. I arrived exactly 3 minutes after my order was supposed to be ready, so I wouldn't have to wait. But then I had to wait in line for over 5 more minutes.I ordered online to get a special deal. It wasn't worth it. Next time I will order at the restaurant so I get everything fresh.Parking: Ample

They do a nice job here, I feel like I'm stepping back in time and I sure miss that homey feel of being treated like a kid with a sweet tooth, I hope dairy queen never goes away, they set the standard for excellence.Vegetarian options: The cows that give us the ice cream are vegetarians, hehe.

Had chicken fingers, lots of batter, not very much chicken.

It was going to be a regular weekly stop on the way to my kid's lessons. Will now go out of my way to avoid. I've noticed a precipitous decline in service from businesses that have to rely on young employees, this may have topped them all .

Stopped in at our hometown Dairy Queen tonight after work. Gotta say, the team here really is getting it done well and quick!A burger, 2 fries, cheese curds and 2 blizzards in a matter of minutes! Fresh and Hot! Why more quick eateries aren't as good of this DQ, I don't know.But just want to give props to everyone working tonight! Good job guys, keep it up!

We have recently fallen back in love with the chicken tenders - not a typical thing that people come to DQ for, but they are quite good. The butter spread on the bread is a bit interesting, but you get a lot of food. My son really likes the slushies and I saw they recently added individual cupcake cakes to purchase. I did the chicken salad and it was really delicious.Parking: Nice large parking lot on the north side of the building.

We have stopped at this DQ and it's sometimes good and sometimes not, so I shouldn't be surprised on what happened yesterday. We were heading that direction home and my wife had read online that the drive thru was open until 9:30, cool we would be there just past 9:00. Pulled into the parking lot, open sign is on, store is completely lit, pull up to the speaker past a number of running cars with teen or twenty year olds in them. Got the please wait message, but then someone comes out the door by the drive thru and says they're closed, closed at 9:00. Not happy, but we move on, but I will say the running cars with people in them makes me wonder, but I can't make accusations with proof, right! Here's the next odd part, we stopped somewhere else nearby and my wife ran in, that's when I checked Yelp which says the DQ closes at 8:00. I think this could be a great location if it was just consistent.

Oreo shakes are the best. I don’t care what my kid says (he likes vanilla).

Blizzards are too expensive, but the service was great and this location has the best seating (indoor and outdoor) and plenty of parking.

The Blizzards are pretty good. That is our main purchase. We use drive thru.
