My favorite thing here are the Twirls, their take on a Blizzard. Soft serve vanilla ice cream blended with your choice of ingredients. I usually get the child size (12 oz), which is just enough for a sweet treat for one, blended with cookie dough! Hubby loves the Butterfinger one. We usually go through the drive-thru, and it's always fairly fast and efficient. Although this location is sometimes staffed with indifferent teenagers, they provide good service (if not the most attentive). There are a few outdoor tables, but we usually just park and sit in the car. There's a huge, free parking lot at the adjacent Winn Dixie grocery store, which makes for good people watching at night. This location is open late, which makes it a great stop after leaving Disney for the day. Everybody can use a little sweet treat after a long day, and Twistee Treat is one of my favorites in Orlando.

After a long road trip, sometimes all you need is a little ice cream to satisfy your sweet tooth…read more While in Orlando, I was seriously craving some delightful ice cream--and so was my dog, Bissy Elliott. I stumbled upon Bruster's Real Ice Cream, a dog-friendly spot with an impressive selection of flavors and toppings. They even have pup cups for furry friends like Bissy. After a few deliciously grueling minutes of deciding, I settled on a scoop of southern banana pudding and a scoop of cherry vanilla, topped with pineapples. Each bite was a blissful reminder of summer. As for Bissy, she happily devoured her cup of vanilla ice cream, complete with wafers and a milk bone. It was a treat fit for a queen. The place isn't fancy; it's tucked away in a corner of a strip mall, but there's plenty of parking available. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the prices were just right. Any place that caters to both dogs and humans earns a gold star in my book.

It's in what used to be "Sprinkles".

Patient is an understatement…read more We were a group of five visiting Salt & Straw for the first time, and the gentleman helping us was incredibly warm and welcoming from the moment we stepped up. He encouraged us to sample whichever flavors we wanted before making a decision, and considering there was a pretty lengthy line, that level of patience was especially appreciated. At no point did we feel rushed to just pick something and move along. He also recommended a few of his personal favorites, and I ended up choosing one of his suggestions, it was amazing. What really made the experience, though, was his personality. He kept a smile on his face, had playful banter with our family, and made something as simple as choosing ice cream genuinely enjoyable. Unfortunately, I didn't catch his name, but I hope Salt & Straw knows they have someone at their Disney Springs location who creates exactly the kind of first impression that makes people want to come back. Great ice cream, but even better hospitality.

Their…read moreunique flavor combinations are always fun, and I love that they let you sample before making your final choice. The first thing you'll notice when walking in is the amazing smell of the fresh waffle cones they bake in house. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and their rewards program is a nice bonus since every purchase earns you points toward free treats. Even though I sample the seasonal flavors, I almost always order a split single scoop of Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons and Double Fold Vanilla in a chocolate or seasonal waffle cone. It's my perfect combo. Since it's at Disney Springs, it can get pretty busy, especially at night, and since it's a small shop the queue line is usually wrapped outside, but it's absolutely worth the wait. Great ice cream, friendly service, and creative flavors keep me coming back.

Let's begin with the seating situation…read more Apparently, this is a "food court" area at Disney Springs, which I assume means the food is provided by several establishments while the cleaning of the tables is apparently a community service project. No one seems to actually be responsible for cleaning the tables, so naturally, you can expect them to be covered in the usual sticky mystery substance. And because none of the restaurants sharing this little dining arena seem to believe in something as radical as a napkin or plasticware station, congratulations! You are now the busboy. Grab some supplies and clean your own table. Of course, first you have to get past the bouncer at the door, whose apparent job is to regulate access to the frozen yogurt line. Because apparently the fate of national security rests on who gets into the Froyo queue. Once you finally make it through that checkpoint, you have to ask the cashier for napkins. And this is where the experience really shines. The high-school-aged girl working there proceeds to give me attitude and asks, "Did you take enough?" Ma'am. First of all, your napkin dispenser doesn't work. Second, I am literally asking for napkins because your restaurant did not provide a functioning place for customers to get them. And third, perhaps save the interrogation for after my husband and I have recovered from being financially ass-taped for approximately $50 worth of three frozen yogurts. Nothing says Disney magic quite like paying amusement-park prices to clean your own sticky table while being reprimanded for taking too many napkins. The happiest place on Earth. Apparently just not the happiest place to get a napkin.

We ordered the Hot Fudge Nachos ($12)with housemade cinnamon sugar chips, bluebell vanilla ice cream, brownies, whipped cream and a cherry ($, Butter My Waffle Shake ($18.83 served in souvenir mason jar) which is vanilla ice cream caramel sauce, crushed butter finger, chocolate sauce, chocolate icing, sugar pearl waffle and whipped cream, and a Build Me Up Buttercup shake ($18.83 served in souvenir mason jar) which has both vanilla and peanut butter ice cream, chocolate syrup, whipped cream, Reese's peanut butter cups, peanut butter sauce and Reese's pieces. The ice cream is quality Blue Bell brand which already told me the ice cream is great. I will say that the shakes and a decent size and could be shared with a friend or family member as they are exploding with sweetness. I really enjoyed the Hot Fudge Nachos as it was a fun spin on a hot fudge sundae. This is definitely an experience I recommend! There is plenty of indoor seating, two large sinks in the back of the dining room to wash out your souvenir mason jars, colorful murals on the walls, friendly and welcoming staff. Menu board, handheld menus and a photo menu book to look at to help you make your decision. You do t have to get the souvenir mason jars with your shakes but they are cute if you want them.

Holy moly what a fun place! Came here twice on a recent trip (once with part of the group and then…read moreagain because we wanted everyone to try it!). This place is very Instagrammable, which I'm sure was part of their plan (and I think it worked)! They have all sorts of crazy concoctions with fun names, many in mason jars (hence their business name). These concoctions aren't cheap, and I think anyone would be hard pressed to finish one themselves, so if you're not big on sweet treats maybe share one. They do have some options for basic ice cream, etc. in dishes, but that is not their wheelhouse. The staff was very helpful in answering questions, especially because the menu is a bit overwhelming. They make each concoction to order, so you can make some substitutions but that also means it will take some time to get your order (especially in a large group).

It was about 5 dollars for a regular scoop. It tasted both sweet and savory, with a hint of sesame flavor. It was also creamy, just like the last time I went. It was a good ice cream, but I still think I was pretty expensive as it was just one scoop. I could have gone to the supermarket and gotten a pint of Haagen Daz for almost the same price. At least the service was still prompt and friendly, and the shop was cozy. If it wasn't raining, I could have ate outside while hearing the roar of the bubbly fountain. Instead, I was lucky enough to grab a seat from the small booth, and enjoy my ice cream indoors. While the ice cream is pretty good and the service was nice, I wish the portions were a bit bigger for five dollars. Other ice cream shops I been elsewhere gives at least another half scoop or more for the same price. I guess it's the price you're paying for being in the Dr. Phillips area. Still an enjoyable place if you want just ice cream instead of a dessert from the other restaurants. Overall: B-
