Best ice cream by far! I love the old style uniforms and always friendly service. I was there on October 22nd and had the pumpkin ice cream. No other words than amazingly delicious!!!!

Tried the whirly berley, and no doubt the best chocolate ice cream I've ever had.

Pretty disappointed. Been here a bunch of times. Waited in line tonight for over a half hour. I get a messed up order and there was no attempt to correct it or remedy the situation. You've lost my business. Stop hiring children.

Very good ice cream--a little bit expensive though....and I didn't like the Chinese take out container.

After doing the Segway tour we headed back here for a 4:30 pm treat. First was .... no line! Second..... Whirly Birly chocolate ice cream + a couple more flavors in a " huge" cup( ore like a Chinese food to go box). Smooth, creamy and so filling, some of the best ever!

My wife and I shared a Franklin Mint it was excellent. $11 might seem pricey but for the area not too bad. We also liked the old fashioned style and decorations.
