    Jim's Great American is now in the ice cream business too. Congrats to Jim who continues to anchor the Prattsville revival. Can't have a sleepy Catskills town without soft serve ice cream. It's a tradition, especially in dairy country like this (though much less so these days). Back in the 1960's there were lots of working dairy farms along the route 23a corridor and several soft serve/hamburger joints in the Dairy Queen style around. I now count one -- this one -- in a roughly 20 mile radius. The closest other is in Tannersvillle -- almost 25 miles away (Mommas Boy). Jim's hard ice cream is sourced, but the soft serve is mixed on site and can be flavored with various additives -- kinda like they do in many places on the Jersey Shore. I just realized that this is like the 4th review of an ice cream parlor I have written today -- which suggests my dairy free lifestyle has taken a hit lately. :( Oh well. It's what folks do on a hot summers day/eve and I guess I'm folks -- and what Jim's serves us folks is soft and cold and sweet and smooth, and you get plenty of it for not a lot of cash. Sounds like a good deal to me.

    Huge portions, great value for the price you pay. I got a vanilla soft serve in a cone and was pretty stuffed after finishing it. The menu has a good range of ice cream flavors, and for the soft serve you can infuse it with a flavor like.mint or pineapple for an extra fee. The soft-serve itself was more creamy than icy, which is always nice. There's one picnic table in the parking lot to eat in. Make sure you bring cash, this was cash only at the window when I came.

    Omg boy did I enjoy G jimmies this past weekend, while in the Catskills living the supermarket G jimmies caught me and my friends attention. They had me at dairy free and yummy lol. Stopped by and it was such a cute set up. The first girl who helped us can't remember her name was cool but Sydney knocked the ball out of the court lol her service was so great I naturally wanted to drop the money I was paying for the ice cream with in her tip jar lol. She suggested the dairy free options which were a few the chocolate chip cookie dough and the Apple streusel...tried a sample of both and was like I'll do one scoop of each on a waffle cone with caramel drizzle. Did I enjoy it ! Mos definitely tasted so good and happy I didn't have to pay for it with my stomach growling because it was yummy and dairy free! Was on a budget but still tipped, just not huge this time lol I'll be back tho with more friends when in the Catskills. Will be back in a few weeks and will definitely stop by. I would suggest more dairy free options for the dairy free peeps like me so we can get hooked lol Last but not least I loved the employee of the month wall, If this helps at all I vote Sydney for EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH 2021 she's truly a gem and made me and my friends experience great!

    Genuinely surprised by the amount of complaints and poor reviews people have made about Mamas Boy…read more We finally were able to check out this food spot after skiing all day and I was very impressed there is on street parking or there is their own private parking lot. First off you can order both outside at the single serve window or inside if people just read the signs instead of complaining. We ordered inside as I had a few menu questions never being there before. We ordered a Mamas Boy Burger, Jersey boy burger, grilled cheese, and tots. We also order two mills shakes the German chocolate cake and black cherry. I made the mistake of ordering two Patti's on my Mamas Boy and oh man it was huge! A single patty is more than filling as the burger patty is easily twice the size of the bun! The jersey boy burger was just as huge and delicious to the point my boyfriend said oh you won't like it simply because he didn't want to give me a single bite lol. The tots were so crisp and well seasoned a must try if you still have room after eating a giant burger! Yes the burgers are a little greasy but that is normal and still edible. We also ordered a grilled cheese which was the only disappoint of the meal for $7 as it was not melted at all on the Inside only crisp bread on the outside. I would've had said something to the staff however my boyfriend just wanted to go home and said he would remelt it there. When ordering our milkshakes the staff were extremely helpful and patient. Highly recommend the German chocolate cake as it was amazing. The black cherry with their hard ice cream was delicious as well. Our whole meal was a little over $40 for a late lunch and well worth the price.

    Unfortunately I feel like this place has gone downhill. I used to eat here several times during the…read moresummer, mostly because the majority of the space is outside dining. Last time I went the staff was extremely rude and when they made a mistake they seemed annoyed that I wanted my burger made correctly. It was just overall a very bad experience. Note to the business owner - your staff should not be arguing with a customer when they complain about an error in the order. They should happily remake or apologize for their mistake.

    I have three major issues with this hotel: not friendly, doesn't honor billing methods advertised,…read moreand not clean. 1: The staff in the main office have no idea that they are working in the hospitality industry. They are rude, unfriendly, skip phrases like welcome and thank you. I was not asked if I liked my stay, and it was clear that charging my credit card was the highest priority... I have no problems paying my bills and they just seemed to make this a confrontational issue for no reason!!! 2: I made my reservation though Priceline.com using my American Express card. The hotel staff called my "work number" instead of my cell number to inform me that they were going to refuse to charge my American Express card after my reservation was confirmed on Priceline.com. Luckily I called the hotel to verify my reservation and the hotel staff then demanded another card from me with no apology stating they they "do not accept American Express". Obviously this hotel is not in compliance with Priceline policy and is violating their agreement. I will take this up with Priceline as well! 3: if you like killing flies in your room in the middle of winter you will love your room! Because I killed three flies in my room and was amazed to see them with snow on the ground outside! This hotel will advertise old charm but I would say its better said that this hotel is old and falling apart. In summary If you don't expect hotel staff to smile or respect you, honor your reservation made through 3rd parties, or the billing methods that they are elected to accept then is is the hotel for you! E bugs in your room are just a bonus!!!

    Very clean, beautiful view. Friendly and helpful staff. Second time staying during COVID and we'll…read morebe back again!
