Cold Stone Creamery

Very sweet and "real" (what does "not real" mean?) ice cream ordered at the counter. Because the…read moreportions are large, the price was easier to accept. We came on a Saturday early evening and enjoyed a few flavors (banana puddin, graham street, and cookies and cream). Overall the flavors aren't super unique and the excessive sweetness was a bit much considering the portion size. Three scoops in a waffle cone is enough for two or maybe three people. It also wasn't very hot that day and the ice cream kept melting out of the cup and cone. The texture of the ice cream was much softer than at some spots. Not a bad thing necessarily but messy nonetheless. Service was friendly. There are a couple tables and a bench to enjoy your treat. Or walk into town and walk off those calories. Parking is available behind the location but there's also street parking that's paid around 8 am-6 pm every day except Sunday.

I ordered an ice cream sundae for $17 and was honestly shocked when it arrived. The portion size…read morewas incredibly small there was barely enough ice cream for a few bites, literally about three spoonfuls. For a dessert at that price point, I expected something that at least resembled a full sundae. I understand that restaurants have different pricing structures and presentations, and I don't mind paying premium prices when the quality and portion justify the cost. However, what I received felt completely out of proportion to the price charged. It was disappointing to spend $17 on a dessert and leave feeling like I had barely been served anything at all. The ice cream itself may have been fine, but the value simply wasn't there. A sundae should feel like a treat, not a sample. I left feeling frustrated and disappointed, and I hope management takes a closer look at the portion sizes being served because this experience did not meet expectations.

Some people were waiting an hour. That is why you prepare to not be short-staffed, I explained. Instead of saying "yes, thanks, apologies," I was sarcastically insulted by the manager likely responsible for cutting corners. To be clear, I gave respectful and constructive feedback to someone who seemed above it (but not above taking everyone's money). The insult to injury is your insinuation that I wasn't patient despite my clear explanation of what transpired, and no acknowledgment of your manager's shortfall. Just a backhanded assessment that proves, just like in the store, you're not listening to your customers. People, go elsewhere. Crave Creamery is in New Milford, locally-owned, well run, and just about 7 mins away from this disaster. Coldstone Creamery in Westwood is 5 mins the other direction and tasty, plus knows how to respect their customers time and money.

But all three pastas that we ordered were definitely not worth the price. I was really excited for the spicy rigatoni that I got and I asked the guy how spicy it was. And he said, 2 out of 10, but when I got it, it was definitely 0 out of 10 spicy. He said too many people complained about the spice level. So they dumbed it down, but it just tasted like tomato sauce with no spice at all. Unfortunate. There were a couple of other appetizers or things on the menu I would be willing to try, but I won't be running back to this spot anytime soon. Especially since it was a good distance away from me.

Van Dyk's is one of those classic summer traditions for my family. We usually make a few trips here…read moreevery summer, and it's easy to see why people keep coming back. Their homemade ice cream is delicious, and they offer a huge variety of flavors. We stopped by on a Friday afternoon and lucked out--it wasn't crowded yet. If you've ever been here during peak summer hours, you know that's a rarity. This place is a local favorite, and long lines are pretty common later in the day. I was really hoping to get my favorite, Bailey's Cream, but they were sold out. That's one thing to keep in mind: while they have a ton of flavors, they aren't always all available. I ended up ordering the Black Raspberry Chip with free rainbow sprinkles (my go-to), and it definitely hit the spot. Someone in our group got a milkshake and absolutely loved it, while another ordered the Cappuccino Oreo and enjoyed it as well. Portion sizes: A single scoop (their small) is surprisingly large. With prices having increased over the years, I'd love to see a smaller, more affordable option for those times when I just want a little ice cream. I also wish they'd let you choose two flavors in a small cup instead of requiring a double scoop (medium) if you want to mix flavors. A few things to know before you go: Van Dyk's is cash only, although they do have an ATM inside if you need it. The shop itself is very small, with no indoor seating or restrooms. There are only a few places to sit outside, so most people end up standing around or grabbing a spot on the small wall. Parking can also be a bit of a headache. The lot gets hectic, especially when they're busy, and better signage would definitely help. We've found it's often easier to park on a nearby side street and walk over. Even when the line is long, the staff does a great job keeping things moving. One employee usually takes care of an entire group from start to finish, which helps keep the ordering process efficient. Everyone we've interacted with has always been friendly and helpful. Even with the cash-only policy, limited seating, and hectic parking, Van Dyk's is still one of our family's favorite summer traditions. The homemade ice cream keeps us coming back year after year, and hopefully next time they'll have my favorite ice cream, Bailey's Cream, in stock.

Whatever flavor the cake part was, the frosting remained the same. I don't remember if the chocolate had a chocolate cream cheese frosting? My honest opinion of the overall quality: like a gourmet version of boxed cake mix. It was okay, for $6 each it didn't break the bank but I was underwhelmed. I was so excited that I had the chance to finally try it. I think there are local bakeries around that can offer better homemade cakes.
