"We drove here from Lansing to try the ice cream. The ice cream treats are delicious. I had a large turtle sundae. My husband had a caramel apple sundae. They also serve some breakfast sandwiches and lunch choices. We might have to try them next time we come here."

"Came in after a long walk for some food, as I heard this place had good bagels. I ended up getting the breakfast burrito because a 1 pound burrito and tots is 10.60 (steal in my book). Staff was attentive and the food was good! I know this place is known for the ice cream, but don’t sleep on the breakfast!"

"Cute ice cream parlor with some food items. We didn't try any of the food, but the ice cream was really good, and they had a large flavor selection. Prices were average, and servings were large. The small town of Dimondale makes it a perfect stop. You can sit inside or enjoy covered seating outside. Get your ice cream and take a walk by the Grand River or go to a pretty park by the firehouse that's on the river."

"We came her with our girl scout troop after floating on the river. The kitchen crew did an amazing job getting all our orders put fast and everyone got what they ordered. The grilled cheese sandwich and the pickle fries were 9/10 The chicken fingers and fries were 10/10 The deluxe cheeseburger and fries were 10/10 The bratwurst and Mac n cheese bites were 12/10 The deluxe cheeseburger and onion rings were exactly what was needed. The coffee ice cream so so go The Michigan cherry and mini. P.b cups and fudge topped off the menu. Best place for the price. Highly recommended. Thanks for a great experience. Well done service with a smile."
