Unfortunately, we found that the latest review was accurate, the others are not. It appears they renamed this place "Caroline's", possibly. There were not 30+ flavors of ice cream, and the few they did have sadly appeared freezer burned. The coffee set up looked nothing like earlier photos with tons of flavor options. Half the place is a small boutique? The employee was kind.

Owner super friendly (yes pun intended) and has all kinds of history about the place. There is tons of memorabilia in a cozy shop. There are a few seats inside and a picnic table outside. It looks like they are working on converting an old train car into more seating as well. The ice cream is so rich and creamy. We tried This $&@! Just got serious, Superman, zanzibar chocolate, and Blackberry lemon bar. We loved every one of them, and the waffle come is definitely worth the extra dollar! They are made fresh and in-house! Then, to top it off, they have a cease and desist letter from DC hanging above the toilet! To make it big enough to get noticed by DC is awesome, even if it's not a congrats letter! We will not be strangers to this place!

The "console" tv with nostalgic drive in commercials was great. We will definitely be back.

Pineapple Bliss is very unique to the midwest. I never been to a soft serve place that was so…read moreaccommodating to every kind of dietary needs and still taste so good! Personally, I am not a pineapple whip kind of girl but I love their more dairy-based flavors like thai tea, black sesame, or salted caramel! Their fruity flavors are truly a hit or miss for me but that's just because I prefer dairy over a sorbet soft serve. The reason why I love Pineapple Bliss despite not liking all their flavors is they give you samples. They don't judge if you ask for more than 2 samples. And their serving size is huge! The small is only $2ish and it fills me up. It's more of a meal than a post-meal dessert but I am absolutely okay with it (more for the next day, ya feel!). Recently, I had their mango with chamoy and tajin and it was perfection! I will definitely go back when they bring mango back!

So ignore the only other review on here that's a 1 Star. General rule when rating a place is…read moreusually one star for service, one for prices, one for food quality, one for the how clean and nice the place is, and a 5th Star if you feel like the place is just overall great. One stars are for if the place fails at almost everything, or if the service is so rude and bad that you can't enjoy the place at all. Giving a place 1 star because they don't have your kind of ice cream is ridiculous. Ok rant over. As for this place. It's got a good selection of ice cream. I think it was about 12 flavors or so. I don't really expect every flavor on the planet in a small town or it wouldn't last. Unless you're super picky, It's got something for everyone. The service is super friendly, and prices are very fair. Multiple cone options / cup sizes. They sell banana splits, shakes, Italian sodas, root beer floats, all sorts of candies, taffy and more. The place is super clean and very very nicely decorated. Maybe more on the girly side, but I'm sure if you brought young boys to eat ice cream, they are not complaining the place had more of a girls room feel. Seems like a great place for a group of kids to go with parents at any time. Lots of little things to touch and get their hands on, so maybe not so great if you have a grabby kid under the age of 3 unless you want candy all over the store. . They do have crayons at each table though to help keep kids occupied. Overall nothing I could really complain about. When my kids good at school all week, it's a great place to reward her with.
