Looks like the prep area is much spacious for the employees to work. We normally get the custards, so the quality is still equally good! The people still have the same warmth and friendliness.

The guy who took our order was very nice and pleasant. My husband and I decided we're gonna split a cheeseburger and maybe get dessert afterwards if we're still hungry. They have amazing desserts. We used to get them all the time at their old location. Highly recommend you come here and give this place a try. If you're a fan of The Original Nana's restaurant in Streamwood, you will love Van's. Huge portions and great flavor! The burger was hot and juicy and the fries were hot, crispy, and salty. So yummy!

When I walked in it was clean and lit nicely. Plenty of variety with the items. The mint lemonade I ordered was really good. I had never had something like that before and thoroughly enjoyed! For drinks, a choice between regular and large. Pictured is the large, and to be honest it's not exactly that big but I think my expectations are hindered by fast food places like Wendy's that sell a cup the size of a barrel labeling it a large. Plus, no ice added in so it's all drink. The drink total was $8.72, that is with a tip though. Of course tipping is always optional but I always feel nervous not to tip. Im not sure why I did because all he did was fill a cup with the drink that was in the mixer. But yknow lol not his fault. Solid place and friendly guy.

Found this ice cream place in Elgin. It may look kind of haphazard but it has some good products…read more Stop N Dip is kind of set up weird. Has quite a few things to choose from. There's some quite unusual flavors so you can come back a few times. Coming here the first time it was kind of confusing. It's located on one side of the entrance. There's a bit of a passage to get through. Has mostly gelatos. There's also a few sorbets at times. It's about $5 a scoop, but there's much more than just bowls and cones. They make milkshakes and even have hot and iced coffee including Turkish. Crepes are one of the main items. These are filled with chocolate, Nutella, or basically whatever. Also they have dip sticks, which is fruit on skewers dipped in chocolate. They also make lava cake and other big items. Got a lot of sweet stuff to both drink and eat. It's located on Douglas close to Highland. There's a lot of more unusual flavors, along with more common ones, so it has a pretty big variety.

Basically you fill your cup up with your creation and it is weighted for purchase. I price is $0.71 per ounce. There are 14 different flavors of froyo to choose from and a generous variety of toppings to pick from. The machines are self serve and the middle handle will swirl the two flavors of that machine if you wish. It's sugar everywhere! Diabetics please don't hurt yourself in here. The kids love it here as I saw many rotate in and out during my short visit. I had pineapple and peach sorbet. It was so sweet, tangy, and flavorful. This is definitely the spot to satisfy any sweet cravings. I am going to come back especially when the weather is warmer. This location has a lot of support for the community especially the children, so please come by and show support.

Fanny's has an Elgin & St Charles location. I visited the Elgin location with my husband for an…read moreevening treat. The inside was smaller but very clean. Parking was a bit difficult in this part of town. They had an ordering kiosk but one could ring a bell for someone to come over if you'd prefer to pay cash. They offer a variety of topping styles on top of their classic rolled ice cream. The ice cream itself is condensed milk placed on a frozen plate that gets neatly spread out to freeze into its ice cream state. The workers then roll it up and place into a bowl before adding your toppings. It was fun to see and delicious to eat. The ice cream flavors tend to be straight forward chocolate or vanilla since it comes from the condensed milk. Either way, the experience is fun and this is a cute shop.

This place is a great experience. This Is only the second store I've seen with this ice cream. Its…read moremango tango was very yummy. The banana with Nutella was also very good too. Neither were too sweet. They also had mango smoothie or other milk teas if you want a different kind of variety. And they had free water and different flavored milk teas. The free watermelon tea was tasty. The staff were friendly. The ambiance of this place is kind of out of this world. Give this place a try, especially if you've never had roll ice cream! It's worth the buzz/craze. Solid A

It is sad, my family and I wanted to support our community. We found this local store and decided…read moreto try it out. Would not reccomned here is why: Customer service: One specific employee was rude to my older parents and I. My parents andI went in and an employee, and older ladyolder lady asked me what I wanted. I said I was still deciding. My parents were standing next to me and instead of asking them for their order she just walked away. Another employee told her we were trying to order. She waved her arms in the air to that employee and said "they don't want anything." Right in front of us and loud enough that we heard her. She looked annoyed and walked away. We then had to wait a few minutes while the other employees helped other costumer. Then when the lady saw another customer come in, she came out, ignored us and went to help them. I told her, "but we were here first (still need help with order)," and she said "somebody else will take your order." That's just disrespectful, unprofessional. The paletas are very good! However, it's a shame that the customer service, from this one employee, was so bad. A product being good is not enough to keep people coming back. Customer service is the greatest factor in the success of a business.

I go there a couple of days later and was told they could not take it and that I would have to go thru the app to return. Had my receipt but was still told they would not return them. I think you may want to retrain your staff on how to handle customers in the future. Well, almost 1 week later customer service was good enough to get back to me and I gave him the information they needed never heard back from them. Granite, I ordered the wrong item, but I guess they still won't take it back all it was with some coffee filters. Future online buyers beware if you order something wrong, their customer service claims to be concerned to handle good customers but for us never got back to us.
