For downtown or seawall walking a $7 Blizzard is a must!…read more Less mess and more value than some of the neighboring ice cream and gelato shops. $7 gets you a DQ medium Blizzard versus one small cup of Nitrogen ice cream or 2 small, melty scoops of award-winning Bella gelato. There's a time and place for all of these establishments. For the Blizzards, I like the Royal New York Cheesecake filled with Strawberry, when I'm craving something fun and light. My favorite is the Ultimate Royal Choco Brownie filled with Fudge. The first couple bites up top are underwhelming but once you hit the Fudge in the middle it rocks! Perhaps I may have to try other flavours with the added Fudge for $0.95. DQ will also email you specials on your birthday if you sign up for their email list.

I've been to this DQ a few times over the past 8 years, usually in the summer to get a small…read moreBlizzard, but not being a huge ice cream fan, it's not one of my go-to places for a sweet treat. But it's always been consistent, and my kids and I occasionally have stopped in here, and it's always been good. And a few years ago, I surprised my kid with a heart-shaped ice cream cake on Valentine's Day and she LOVED it, so I thought I'd do that again this year. (Yeah, I know, I could be "Mom of the Year"!). For the past few weeks I've been inundated with tv commercials for the Cupid Cakes available at DQ, which are the perfect size for 2 people, so I went online today to the DQ website and I ordered one. (V-Day is tomorrow). They only come in 2 flavors: cookie dough or red velvet. My kid loves cookie dough and isn't keen on red velvet, so it was easy to decide what to order. I plugged in the time I'd pick up the cake at the store and I paid in full ($35. Not cheap!) and I immediately got an e-mailed confirmation. I walked in the rain to the store and arrived at 5:30 pm. (My designated pick up time was 6pm, so I was prepared to wait a bit if it wasn't yet ready). The lady who was working there was super nice but immediately said to me she's so sorry, but they didn't have my cake. I said no problem, I'll wait, but she said no, they "ran out of the cookie dough cakes" earlier today. Um, what? I told her I had a confirmation, and I had paid for it in full. She apologized repeatedly, saying this sometimes happens, that they don't get sent the right amount of cakes. I was flabbergasted. Why on earth would a company - a HUGE international company with a gazillion franchises, - advertise specific products on tv, have customers pay for them, send those customers order confirmations, have those customers physically go to the stores, and then not guarantee that the products ordered and paid for would actually be there? Like, how does a company even stay in business with a practice like this? The woman was nice and tried to make things right. She asked me if I'd like a red velvet cake heart cake (not really. My kid isn't fond of this flavor). She asked if I would like a generic round cookie dough cake that was much larger (not really, as it isn't special without being heart shaped, and I don't care to have a cake that large, that feeds 6+ people. Plus I don't really have the storage room in my freezer for that size cake, anyhow). She wasn't sure if I could get my money refunded, too, saying she'd have to ask her manager. I was really taken aback by this whole experience. I ended up taking a heart shaped red velvet cake, knowing full well that it's not my kid's favorite, and it's not what I paid for. Seriously, what kind of business is this????? I'm giving this place one star and that's ONLY for the lady who was very apologetic and tried to make things right (when there was no real way to do so). I will never again go here, or probably to any DQ anywhere. This really left a bad taste in my mouth. SO unethical.

Wow!! I am very impressed with the DQ. This is rare. First…read moreoff when they same flame grilled burger, they really mean flame grilled burger. Looks like the grill burgers got a new name and they added two new burgers to the line. The grill burgers are now called Stacked Burger. The loaded steakhouse burger and mushroom cheeseburger are new. I ordered the loaded steakhouse burger and B got his usual flamethrower burger. When we first got the burgers, wow were they hot.

My friends also got their chocolate brownie blizzard and the strawberry cheesecake blizzard.. can't go wrong with either. Next time I have midnight munchies, know where to go!

It has nice creamy sauce. The fries are perfectly cooked, crisp and golden, just right, not burnt nor undercooked. I like this place. Its small but it's clean. And one of the few places that still lets you refill ur drinks, get ur own napkins and ketchup. They don't ration these things yet. There's plenty of parking on the side streets. Recommended!

Rooster's Ice Cream is not your typical ice cream spot. It almost seems like it's the complete…read moreopposite to the ice cream giants in town (Earnest and Rain or Shine) on purpose; I dig it. Located in a random spot? Check. Only one staff member working? Check. We've been a couple times and I have yet to see it busy. A few people pop in but no one ever lingers. Most likely because there's no seating. There's also a sign on the counter stating you can only sample 2 flavours during peak hours. There's usually 10 to 12 flavours to choose from; always something unique and interesting. They also have sundaes, ice cream sandwiches and doughnuts on the menu. - Mango raspberry swirl and London fog ($7.00 double) - waffle cone is included and it was better than expected. The ice cream itself tastes a bit denser but still has a creamy satisfying texture. The London fog was fantastic! The mango raspberry was more mango than raspberry but also quite good. - London fog ($5.00 single) - came back on a Monday and they only had four flavours that day. We went with the London fog; just as good as the last time. - Dark chocolate and black sesame with honey ($7.00 double) - the dark chocolate tasted like a fudgesicle but better. Not too sweet and hefty; it was so heavy it almost fell off the cone! The black sesame was delicious. Not quite like the ones we had in Japan but tasty and flavourful. I'll be back again and again! Love the laid back, no frills vibe at Rooster's. One of our favourite ice cream spots!

First, it is an interesting location on east Broadway in a mainly residential area...the good thing is this allows for plenty of free street parking. The room is functional but leaves something to be desired aesthetically. The staff were pleasant and attentive. The flavours were very much in line with Earnest. Sampled the Dark Chocolate and selected my usual, Caramel Sea Salt. Strong creamy caramel taste (which is great) but unfortunately lacking any sea salt flavour. Glad we went but not sure we will be returning anytime soon.

Yes, I do know that bubblegum is not a natural flavor. The brightness just puts me off. The other flavors were good. They are known for their mixing ice cream. Basically you order whatever ice cream you want, the size and the mixes you want in your ice cream. They will assemble the rest for you. Good thing here is that mixes are unlimited. B and I ended up getting a banana split to share. It was super tasty. We had them throw in nerds and skors on top of the ice cream. Love skors as toppings. Decor is ok here. This Marble Slab Creamery has been around for a long time. It is always busy. The reason is because of the reasonable price and the good ice cream. It was interesting how the ice cream flavor label is on one side and not the other. The staff had some trouble finding the flavor. That was ok with me. I wasn't in rush of time. Seating is somewhat limited. In the summertime, most people just buy and go across to English Bay. Great ice cream.
