Lovely, local ice cream shop with excellent Gelato and ice cream and a unique, spirited interior…read moredesign The store employee Jace (sorry if I spelled it wrong!) was very kind and patient. She told us the top seller for ice cream was Texas Praline and for Gelato was salted caramel. Her favorites respectively were coffee almond fudge and cookie butter. Free samples! My wife and I were big fans of the cookie butter and ended up getting that. Our friends liked the espresso, peanut butter chocolate, strawberry sorbet. About $5 after tax for a single scoop. Biggest bang for your buck would be a waffle cone. Cannot overstate the decorations and the obvious passion of the owner. Even the bathroom was very spirited. Would definitely recommend if you're in town!

The very sweet owner is willing to let you sample flavors and then heaps your cone full of ice cream. Yum!

A lifelong Texan here so chicken fried steak and gravy can make or break a place. Without a doubt, best I have ever had. Not over seasoned,not greasy, just enough crunch and the meat was an actual tenderized cube steak. The salad bar was fresh and had good choices. The buffet had many meats, entrées and vegetables to choose from. The service was top notch, fast and on point. They serve breakfast all day with plenty to choose from there too. AND.... one of my big pet peeves is restaurants that buy pre grated cheese. At Johnny's, they grate their own cheese which was yummy. We will definitely stop there everytime we are driving through Clifton, TX.

I happened to be in Plano over the weekend for a conference so since I came this far, I hopped on a…read morebus and scheduled myself for less than 24 hours in Waco! I didn't realize that the #Magnolia properties are closed on Sunday, so I found other fun ways to get the Waco hospitality from the moment I arrived. I was actually glad that I got to see the town for what it is a few days before people traveled there from all over for #Silobration. I look forward to returning to Waco for a longer visit! I found this gem while on a Waco City Tour. They gave the tour participants the choice of coffee or ice cream and we unanimously chose ice cream. This place is so charming and their ice cream is so delicious, I will always return whenever I come back to Waco. I chose a small scoop and that was the perfect amount. While visiting Texas, I had to choose the Brown Butter TX pecan flavor. Having just said that the small was the perfect size, the next time I go back I will probably double up so that I can try more flavors since I don't get there that often. After we got our ice cream we did walk next door to the coffee shop which instantly made me wish I were in college at Baylor because what a cool yard to sit and gather with friends, study, or catch a show! Here's an idea, grab ice cream at Heritage and coffee next door for the best affogato! Can't wait to go back!

Even though I chose not to indulge myself, the boys made sure to remind me exactly how good this place is. Both ordered the same sno-cone: Ya-Badaba-Do! And honestly, watching them demolish it in record time tells you everything you need to know. Soft, fluffy shaved ice piled high, drenched in flavor, and topped generously--it barely stood a chance. The atmosphere is fun, colorful, and kid-friendly without feeling chaotic, and it's an easy win for families looking to make a simple after-school stop feel special. Judging by how fast those sno-cones disappeared, Vampire Penguin clearly knows what they're doing. A great local treat spot--and judging by my grandsons' reactions, one that never disappoints.

Everyone was RIGHT. We had a wonderful experience at this Soda Shop and our taste buds just cannot forget the delicious shakes we had here. On one side of the restaurant is a small, old school diner-style seating area, and on the other is miscellaneous merchandise for sale. It was colorful, lively and the aroma of ice cream and waffle cones was overwhelmingly good. The staff behind the counter were so nice to us and shared their recommendations. I decided to order the "Raspberry Nutella Shake." It was exactly what it sounds like--ice cream, raspberry, and Nutella all in one. SO. DELICIOUS. I highly recommend it. It was creamy, sweet, and just perfect. It came topped with whipped cream and a cherry. We cannot wait to come back the next time we're in town and also can't wait to tell our friends and family who would go to Glen Rose to make sure they make a stop here! Thank you Shoo-Fly!!
