Upon leaving the Mall of New Hampshire to go to the hotel to check in, I decided to get something refreshing. My eye spotted this Dairy Queen in the food court.
It was a quick visit here and first time to the Mall of New Hampshire's food court. I decided to choose one of DQ's smoothies and it was pretty good. My experience here took about 5 minutes from start to finish. The service was typical and fast food counter type. I managed to look at the menu for 5 minutes before proceeding to order. The dude at the counter seemed to not want to be there since it was a Friday afternoon around 5pm. I get that. Once I paid for the smoothie, I waited about 5 minutes for my order is completed. Somehow their large seemed like a medium. Maybe shrink-flation has a role in a post covid world. Dairy Queen's menu is limited but it has a bunch of items to suit everyone's needs. Prices are varied to what size you want and it definitely can give you your fix for something sweet and rewarding. Not sure if paying close to $10 for a large smoothing was rewarding, but I was on vacation and kind of didn't care at the time of purchase. It was good that Dairy Queen was here at the food court of the Mall of New Hampshire, since I had a craving and Dairy Queen apparently is there to solve my inner cravings at the time. Thanks Dairy Queen, you are awesome!
The overall experience at this Dairy Queen at the Mall of New Hampshire was fairly good and satisfying. You can sit at the food court's seating after picking up your purchase, which is what I did before calling the Uber. I enjoyed the large smoothie, which was deliciously cold and very much hit the spot on a monotonous mid October afternoon here in Manchester, NH. Ended up using my phone while enjoying aforementioned large smoothie. The food court dining area was largely empty while I was there, which was nice and gave me ample options to where I could enjoy my large smoothie from Dairy Queen. For the most part though, it was an uneventful experience here at this Dairy Queen on a balmy afternoon in Manchester, NH. I think that the Dairy Queen was short staffed that day but I got the smoothie within a reasonable time. And so, if you want something really refreshing and delicious, and possibly in the area, come on by to this Dairy Queen location in the Mall of New Hampshire's only food court. Might just be the best part of your day. I know it was mine after an afternoon of killing time waiting for a friend who didn't show up at 5pm but later on in the evening for dinner elsewhere in Manchester.
This Dairy Queen oasis is located inside the Mall of New Hampshire's food court. It's physically located at 1500 S Willow Street in Manchester, NH. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. As far as parking goes, you'll have access to a generous amount of parking that the Mall of New Hampshire gets, which is pretty astounding. Best bet would be to find prime parking space before the lunch or dinner rush to secure the best place possible. Then, walk to the food court to find Dairy Queen to place an order. If you are like me, there is at least one Manchester City bus route that services the Mall of New Hampshire. I know, I saw one arrive and depart while waiting for my uber to arrive. You can do this cheaply or like me, arrive and depart in an Uber. Whatever you do, come here in style. Shop at the Mall of New Hampshire and take breaks while having Dairy Queen smoothies or whatever you like here at DQ Manchester, NH. They'll be glad to see you and I think my favorite smoothie would have to be the strawberry mixed with something else. Not sure if you can customize your smoothie for an added cost, but it's good to ask before you order to avoid any possible chance of confusion.
