Get off the exit (64) and resist the urge to stop at the Shoney's or the McD's or the BK. I know…read moreyou're tired and hungry and have to pee. You've been driving so long you're not even sure what state you are in, or what day it is, bless your heart. But hang in there, drive about a mile from the exit, hang a left and a right (let Waze guide you) and find your way to 1118 State. You'll swear you've stepped back in time, and that you're on old rt 66. Park yourself and walk up to the window. The locals will be lined up, and they don't mind if you furriners ain't from around these parts. The friendly ladies will greet you, call you sugar and baby, whip you up a milkshake and a cheeseburger dee-luxe in no time flat. No one's asking how you want it cooked - they cook it the way they have been cooking it forever - and it'll be pretty darn near the most perfect cheeseburger you can remember having. The milkshakes are, well, they should be mandatory. Point being, get one. They are rich and thick and made with real ice cream (of course). Don't come here looking for a salad, but they do have grilled cheese, fries, fried mushrooms and a few other non-meat options for you fat vegetarians. Everything here is so relaxin and tasty that you might have almost forgotten that you have to pee. There _is_ a bathroom here but this furriner recommends you hold it just a lick longer unless you're super into roughing it. Maybe stop at the McD's or BK on the way back to I-10 to take care of that bidness, bless your heart.

1) this place is NOT a drive-in. It used to be a long time ago…read more 2) outside seating only...and the picnic tables are filthy and decaying. The staff clearly NEVER bother to wipe them off. Birds and stray cats are assigned that duty. 3) the food is NOT fresh. This is a fast food burger joint and everything is clearly kept in the freezer. 4) not a stop for anyone who cares about what they put in their body. Aside from the poor food options, the ice cream and drinks are all filled with fake ingredients. 5) The staff is friendly, but the service is gawd-awful S-L-O-W.... Gas stations on the interstate have MUCH better offerings....

Let's start with the health concern. I watched the girl behind the counter roll our ice cream with…read moreungloved hands. Partway through rolling, she pulled out her phone (rude by itself). Her phone was stuffed in the front of her shorts. Not in a pocket. In the front waistband. Disgusting. After pulling her gross phone out of her shorts, she started scratching her shoulder by reaching inside her shirt. I could hear her nails scraping her skin. Gross. This place needs some serious training. The menu system (or lack there of) is frustrating. I didn't know what was on the menu, how to order, costs, nothing. And the girl behind the counter was not a helpful personality. And lastly, clean your bathroom. Why is this so hard? Hire people that take pride in their environment. I absolutely do not recommend this place. Gross.

Located in downtown Deridder, it's in a quaint shopping district all decked out for the holidays. We were warmly greeted when we arrived. Roomy and clean, with lots of spaces to get comfy. All three of us ordered the "Sweet Bourbon Buzz" (vanilla, maple spice, bourbon caramel, and espresso). The lovely barista had them ready in a flash. Oh my goodness, that was a fabulous drink. Just the right temp, and you could taste every flavor in that drink, not overpowering but all complimentary. So delicious.

They had one no sugar added choice frozen yogurt but were unable to show us a nutritional card or listing for the item so we could see how much sugar and carbs was in it. *please note* to avoid confusion-- sugar free and no sugar added are not the same thing. I am not diabetic- but this is an import distinction for diabetics as well as those pursuing a ketogenic or low carb diet. Thank you to the owner, Nicole, for explanation of no sugar added options and availability at their yogurt shop.

Sometimes though I think her eyes are bigger than her stomach because we fill up our cups and then they are melted and we are full before we can finish, heh.

Even with my Yelp check ins the prices are still substantially higher than other Yogurt and ice cream shops I frequent.

First time at this new restaurant. It used to be the best ice cream place!…read more The remodeling was done beautifully. When I walked in it smelled of home cooked meals and fresh ice-cream! This place did not disappoint and the menu items were all cajun dishes and smash burgers. The shrimp was exactly how my grandparents would make it, floury and crispy! I haven't had such a wonderful shrimp in a very very long time!! The crawfish etouffee coupled have used lots more flavor and seasoning. But that catfish was fried to perfection and you could tell they used the Louisiana style batter! This place was a order ahead type of service, kind of like dairy barn. I will definitely be visiting again.

We've been customers of Curled Creme since they opened the fall of 2023. It has been a treat to…read morewatch their business grow as they get more and more savvy with creating taste sensations with the curled creme product! What is "curled creme" you might ask? It is a type of ice cream made by hand-rolling the ice cream base on a cold surface, creating a unique, rolled ice cream experience. These ice cream rolls are then topped with a variety of mix-ins and toppings, offering a personalized dessert. They regularly post photos of these tasty creations on their Facebook Page. The basic product is Cream Base, a Mix-In, and a Drizzle. You can add more toppings as you like. The shop is housed in a masterfully restored building downtown, decorated tastefully and comfortably. They get a lot of foot traffic from tourists downtown and its always fun to watch a group of children come in and watch them make the curled creme through the glass barrier around the frozen slabs they build it on. The owners are normally on-site and it's obvious they enjoy seeing customers satisfied with the product. From time to time they sell fried fruit pies and cake pops. DeRidder is very fortunate to have a business of this caliber in the heart of the downtown district.
