This is a cute vintage-style ice cream shop/restaurant. I got the pineapple/strawberry swirl Dole. It was nice but I wish the strawberry flavor was more assertive. My husband saw that they had cappuccino hard ice cream and asked if they could make it into a shake. Unfortunately they can only make shakes from soft serve ice cream. He got it in a dish instead. My daughter got a sundae, and her boyfriend got soft-serve ice cream mixed with Oreos and mint syrup (I can't remember the name they call it at this place but you know the thing I am talking about). Everyone was pleased with what we got, though there wasn't anything with a real "wow" factor. Staff members were nice and the treats came out quickly. The place itself seems a little worn, but that's ok. There have probably been a lot of dates, groups, and families here over the years. Lots of good times, no doubt!
What a perfect treat. Great for drive through, eating outside, and grabbing something sweet inside. They have all the great basics, amazingly priced. The service is quick and friendly. I ordered a chocolate malt and it brought me back to my childhood. That, and a side of fries hit the spot.
Look...this is an old school, been serving ice cream since the 50s, milk came from the cow across the street and grandma turned it into cream to serve everybody ice cream type of place. Just go get one. It's insanely good and easy. Apparently they serve food too but we only needed that twist. Maybe one of these days we will eat there AND get dessert. GBR!!
Food is decent nothing I would crave though. Split a pork tenderloin and a cheeseburger. Clear winner out of those two was the cheeseburger. Pork tenderloin was a bit bland whereas the cheeseburger tasted fresh and actually pretty good! Fries were crispy and hot but smelled a little sweet, obviously cooked in the same oil as their funnel cakes. My pineapple shake was delicious. May ask for a bit less pineapple next time, a little dated inside but very clean and super nice people!
great ice cream with an extensive menu. perfect to get ice cream with friends. staff answered all of our questions!
How have I gone this long without trying Dairy Twist?! This ice cream definitely reminds me of my small town ice cream shop growing up. The Reese's Twister is a must try! They do not skimp on Reeses and the ice cream definitely beats the chain restaurants in the area. I can't wait to return to try some entree items off of the menu. Service was quick and prices were fair. During both of our visits we used the drive-thru vs going inside.
This isn't a true review of the whole Dairy Twist experience because I used the drive thru and all I ordered was a vanilla shake. So if you're looking for a comprehensive review, this isn't it. The wait was a bit long, but I wasn't in a hurry. The man who served me apologized for the wait. The drive thru is one window on the side of the building with a circular drive approaching it. I believe it is under newer ownership and they had a few problems with the building but all is well now. I thought the shake was a little thin at first, but it got thicker as I drank it. It had good vanilla flavor and little bits that were probably ice cream not completely mixed in. It was a really hot day so that might be why it was thin at first. I like supporting small local businesses.
My #1 favorite soft serve spot EVERRRRR Sooooo delish. We went 3 days in a row to try all the toppings. And hands down the sprinkles is my fav. And twist.
I've wanted to try this place for years. I'll not make that mistake again. First, we were greeted with two door signs and a sign on the counter stating that they charge a 3% "convenience fee" for debit and credit card purchases. They can call it a convenience fee, but it's really just a surcharge and is highly frowned upon in the business world. The second thing to greet us was an overwhelming aroma of stale filth. It's the sort of odor that old, rundown motels have. (To explain, my parents bought old motels, fixed them up, and sold them for a profit. I KNOW the smell of stale filth.) We came for dessert, ice cream specifically. The only hard ice cream was bubble gum, birthday cake, and cherry. A dismal selection. When my husband pointed out that they have sundaes, we were told the only soft serve ice cream flavor they have is vanilla. When we opted for a banana split instead, we were told again that vanilla is all they have. Nothing on the signage stated this, and in fact, still listed strawberry and chocolate as additional flavors. The banana split did not include pineapple, and there was no cherry on top. The chocolate syrup was runny and odd tasting. The marshmallow syrup was fine, but the ice cream had no flavor at all, not even a hint of vanilla. The whipped cream, too, had no flavor, so I can't imagine what chemicals it was made of. The whole thing left a sourish, somewhat bitter after taste. We decided not to order anything else. Between the overall odor and the foul banana split, I can't help but wonder what the condition of the kitchen is, but I certainly was not willing to risk it. There is a reason, I see now, why during prime dinner hour the place was empty. We won't be back, of course, and I certainly can't tell anyone else to try it.
This was my first visit in a long time, as I had not been here since I was a teenager. There have been many mom & pop places we have visited, with some being good, while others were not. This is not one of the good ones. Upon reaching the door, we discovered that they apply a credit/debit surcharge disguised as a "convenience fee". I find this practice despicable and it is frowned upon in the industry. Now for the banana split. The sign said it came with three flavors of ice cream, but during the winter they only have vanilla. Once we started eating it, we quickly discovered how bad it was. It was disgustingly sour. The sour chocolate sauce was too thin, the whipped cream seemed off on the flavor, and the ice cream had no discernable taste to it. To top that, the cashier seemed more interested in flirting with the manager, because while she made the dessert, she continued to chat about who knows what. How about you can the idle chatter while customers are there, hmm? Finally, the overwhelming stale smell was very off-putting. We like to sit, chat, and enjoy the experience, but not with a smell like that. We will not be back, because they proved they do like like repeat business.

There's probably slim chance I'd stop in here on a whim but the dip cones were recommended by a coworker so I've had it on my bookmark list for a while. Unfortunately I don't think it lived up to my expectations. The food (burger, fries, corn dog) were all very average fare. And the dip come (cherry) left a somewhat strange tingling feeling in my mouth with each bite. (Not that that prevented me from eating it all.) Generally middle of the road all around. Not bad. Not exceptional. But also not somewhere I'd drive out of my way to get to. read more

NEW OWNERS...YAAH! Bacon cheeseburger is out of this world amazingly good. Twister was so creamy, full vanilla flavored and full of M&M's. You definitely have to give it a try. Whatever those new owners are doing they got it down! My new summer Go-to!!! read more

The food and ice cream never disappoints. A lot of the time I have to wait a few minutes because they're making the food fresh (it's so good). The ice cream is always good and they always put plenty of toppings in the ice cream twisters (much better than Dairy Queen). The cheese curds are good and you can never go wrong with the dip cones. read more

The dairy twist just feels like that place in high school where you just run into a bunch of people you know on a Friday night before/after the game, or in the middle of the day during the summer break. It seems like every small town has one, and even though high school is behind me this place just has that feel. The menu is limited to what you'd expect at Dairy Queen plus a few sandwiches I wasn't expecting to see (sloppy joe, prime rib sandwich, BLT, grilled pork sandwich, tacos, taco salad, and a few others). This place is what it is, a hang out and gathering a people with plenty of fried fare options and soft serve ice cream. So as long as your expectations aren't too high, and your more concerned about the company your with than the food quality, this is for you. read more
