We also ordered chocolate shakes, which didn't disappoint either! Seating area was pretty good sized and picnic tables were located outside to sit at too. A variety of items were available for purchase throughout the establishment. Fresh milk, fresh cage free eggs, fresh cheese, variety of meats, and other grocery items as well. The service was good and fast. Generally students are the people working in the facility. The prices are on the steep side especially being on a college campus. Highly recommend stopping here! The ice cream is a must try at least once!

Pandora features an extensive menu with flavor options and the ability to fully customize your boba. They even have black sesame, my favorite boba flavor! The rolled ice cream menu also features many flavors and combinations - my friend ordered a mint Oreo blend and said it was fantastic. Pandora is more of a takeout place, although there are a few tables inside where you can wait for your order. Services is very friendly and efficient, though everything is made fresh so expect to wait a few minutes, especially if it is crowded. The decor is very cute and casual, it's a fun place with casual vibes. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in Manhattan KS!!

There is a BR31 in JC and one combined with the Valero between MHK and Topeka, but I wasn't planning to drive that far for a scoop! The other day I saw this new location next to Qdoba under construction. Yesterday I saw the new location in the campus coupon books, and while driving by today, I saw people walking out with treats! I immediately swerved and parked, and found the same owner as the previous location! I got my DAQUIRI ICE pint and took it home to enjoy later. I am sooooo glad it is back.

My milkshake was extremely watery. The only reason this place gets business is because there is no other ice cream place in town. I'll just go to McDonalds next time. The icecream is better and probably better service too.

I go up to the register, because that's what I have been told to do, and they ignore me. I will ask politely, and before I can say what for I get cut off. "Wait a moment" "like I said we will be right with you" "you've been standing there a while get in line." Every. Single. Time. I'm not one to complain much, I used to work a few fast food places, I get it. But, that doesn't excuse them ignoring. Yesterday I waited 5 minutes at the register and 13 in line. I finally got to a worker and told them for uber eats. They had it ready. And I asked her what the best way to come in and get the food is because I waited so long. She said "go ask at the register when you come in" I told her I did and she ignored me after checking out someone next to me and after I called her attention and she walked away. All I got in response was "is that all?" Man wtf I'm just trying to make it and work too, next time ima just shout over them I'm here for uber eats. There's no way I should wait nearly 20 minutes for something that took her less than a minute to grab for me.

Luckily, on my most recent visit, my girlfriend and I were able to be seated immediately. If you've never had a Nancy (light beer with a splash of pineapple juice), go ahead and order that first while you look at the menu. It isn't well known outside of Aggieville unless you are a KSU alum. Then order the raspberry chipotle black bean dip. It sounds odd, but is super good. On this visit, I tried "The Bird", which is a southwest chicken sandwich on a hoagie roll. It was super filling, and between that and the dip, I wasn't able to finish everything. Must stop in Aggieville (at least during the daylight hours).
