Five stars for the dark chocolate milkshake at Love's Ice Cream & Chocolate. Period. This is the…read morething to get, if you're not sure what to get at Love's. The dark chocolate shake is super chocolate-forward, thick and delicious. It's really, really chocolately. Also: Why have I lived forty-plus years and never tasted a dark chocolate milkshake? I've had many chocolate milkshakes, and they have been fine. The dark chocolate milkshake at Love's tastes like actual chocolate, though, and it is supremely satisfying. It almost makes me forget that I don't like ice cream! Love's has lots of other ice cream and gelato offerings, including vegan ice cream, plus chocolates and peanut brittle and things like that. This is the place to visit if you're looking for an ice cream treat in Grand Rapids.

I went with the Heath Sundae and it was great. The Heath was mixed in throughout the sundae, rather than just sprinkled on top. The prices are a little higher than the other option downtown Ada but I think the quality is better, so it's worth it!

The green beans and macaroni & cheese were my favorites! We came in for lunch. We were about the second table seated around 11:30am. The place quickly filled up! However, there was only one server. It's not her fault. But it kinda sucked after a while. And it was our first time trying this place. Since it got so busy, our server got tied up taking orders and she seemed to be answering the phone too. I noticed that our food was ready and under the warmer. Unfortunately, our food was not that hot when it got to us, finally. The ribs were overdone. My pulled chicken was very good although it was a tad on the cool side. We were celebrating a special occasion and I hate that our special lunch was kind of ruined. I think I would probably try this place again at dinner time.

Thanks again, Libby for your amazing service. I hope you're treated like you deserve to be treated. You're amazing!! :) Strawberry was excellent.

The course itself was not the most interesting or challenging, and some holes were repeats of others, but it was well maintained and easy for children to pick up. Plus, for $3.50 per ball you can't beat it! I had a butterscotch milkshake and drank it so fast I can't really remember how it tasted. Must have been delicious though. My friends ordered actual food like mozzarella sticks and hot dogs, and they looked very frozen but that's expected. Double Dip is a great spot to do a double take!

It all started on a smoky, 87 degree Saturday in July when our camping plans got a rain check and we were open for a good time. Big Mini Putt Club was initially discussed but nixed because we weren't feeling the downtown vibe or $12 a person/9 holes. Then, we looked up AJ's mini golf but they had a private event scheduled. Yelp suggested Double Dip and after one ring, the employee on the telephone sold us with $3.50/person for 18 holes and recommended we come before 7p (thanks for the tip!). We parked, watched the first half of England vs. France at Walker Roadhouse and walked right over to the Depot. The course was perfect (no waiting around and lots of shade) for our 4 year old who got her first hole in one on the 15th! The ice cream/cone of ice came out quick (no line either) at 6:30p and we had our choice of picnic tables with umbrellas to enjoy. Overall, great family date night! We rarely frequent the west side, besides for the zoo, but will have to plan another trip before the summer ends. Sorry Frosty Boy - we'll see you soon (probably tomorrow) and congrats on winning Best of the West!
