    Great location to stop by after picking fruit at Larriland farm down the road. They have ice cream and snowballs here and lots of flavors to chose from. I had egg custard with marshmallow and my daughter had watermelon with marshmallow. There could have been more marshmallow topping and but it tastes good. There's plenty of tables with space to eat.

    This is a good spot to hit up after some berry picking at larriland. I suggest the snow cones or soft serve - both delish. You might want to avoid the hand dipped - it's just Turkey hill (nothing too special). Good times.

    Alex's always takes care of me reasonable prices for a summer treat! Pictured is cotton candy iceberg- cotton candy ice cream and cotton candy snowball!

    Here is some quality soft serve and ice cream that everyone can enjoy. I love a good soft serve twist and supporting a spot right down the road from where I grew up. They have a great variety of scoop flavors, one of my favorites being the Red Devil's Cake! The staff here are super friendly and have well priced ice cream for the whole family. They have a nice outdoor seating area, and the line is never crazy long. This little gem is tucked away in a Shed Lot, so keep your eyes out! Also, cash only!

    LEFT- Razzle (ice cream flavor w/ 1 topping). I got chocolate cookie dough with Oreo. UTTERLY AMAZING  RIGHT- Single scoop, cup.

    Fun place to stop with the kids and they have a playground too. They just take cash though so make sure you're prepared.

    It's been a bit so this is an update. Came here for dinner about a week ago. I love this place,…read moreit's cozy and like a little hidden gem. Food is always great, as is the service. There were 5 of us, we had the cheese curds (always delicious), tried the crab nachos (surprisingly good) as apps. Ordered the crab soup. I was expecting more of a cream crab soup but that was my fault as it wasn't listed as such and it's a reddish sauce kind of a minestrone with the veggies in it. We ordered shrimp and grits, I was told it was good with a little spice. Two of us ordered the salmon with crab/corn risotto (delicious). Mac and cheese ordered from apps menu, but as meal and the last meal was a pasta chicken dish. Great experience again!

    Surprisingly pleased with my Walker's experience!…read more I met with a former student. Since I got there a little early, I ordered a small pizza as an appetizer. The waiter didn't quite know what I meant, but did get the request to slice it in smaller rectangles rather than triangle slices. It was light and tasty. However, I'm pretty sure I'd be very hungry if I had ordered it as my meal. That was followed by the beer can chicken cobb salad. It was just the right size! We sat outside. Since Walker's is at the end of the strip, they have outdoor seating on the sidewalk. No fault of the establishment, when the sun went down, it got cold quickly! Now, I'm inclined to try the other Table and Tap restaurant a couple miles west.

There are over a dozen interesting hotdog combinations, all named for notable gangster figures. My dining companion ordered the G- Man, which included Chorizo (cowboy) dip, cheddar cheese, diced jalapenos, and Fritos. Even a week later, my dining companion would like another one!!! I wanted to try the chili on a dog but can you believe it even at 11:45 they were already sold out of chili! I kept it plain and ordered the OG with red onion and ordered a side of macaroni and cheese. Normally, I don't like macaroni and cheese with liquid cheese sauce, but this was the first time I've had a cheese sauce that was thick enough that it didn't fall off the individual macaroni pieces. It was totally delicious and I will absolutely or the macaroni and cheese again! There are a few small tables outside Dirty Gangster Dogs. But the owner invited us to sit at one of the dining tables in the Main Street Bistro adjacent to Dirty Gangster Dogs. They recently opened a second location in Historic Ellicott City. We will visit Dirty Gangster Dogs again!

Veggie and turkey dogs are available. We got the kingpin. The flavors were fantastic. Husband and I both rated it a 4 star because we want the hotdog grilled or something a little extra. However, we pushed it to a 5 star because our 2 year old took no prisoners with the kids dog. He still can't stop saying hot dog with ketchup 3 hours later.
