Wash it all down with a bottle of Spring Grove Pop, a local favorite that you can't find outside the area. It's the self-proclaimed "Cheese Curd Capital of Iowa" and I believe them, given that the Frankville cheese factory has been out business for many years. And, for good measure, there is a legit-looking coffee bar as well. And, if you've never seen curds being made, check out the viewing room out back. All in all, the experience is very much like visiting the Tilamook cheese factory in Oregon, but on a more personal, less industrial scale; gift shop, coffee, ice cream, cheese and curds - no whey!

He roasts his own coffee and the iced brew was really outstanding; fruity and complex. He also makes it into a milkshake ("affogato") which was also delicious. Molasses cookie is recommended and there are a zillion kinds of salt water taffy. Very easy to spend a lot of money. I would definitely return if I were here again!

It's only about a 10-15 min drive, so we decided to give it a go. The store is very charming and clean. There is an ice cream counter with classic flavor offerings like mint chip, chocolate, and blue moon. They also offer artisan sodas (I opted for peach), and there is even a little boutique area with handmade lotions, local honey, and jewelry. The prices are very reasonable, and the scoops are generous. I could easily see this being our regular ice cream spot if we were local, and we will most certainly be back the next time we're in that neck of the woods.

Open on selective days of the week so be sure to check their hours before heading over. We got lucky! They definitely accommodate to tourist days which worked great for us. We got two different flavors- a half scoop of each. One was cookies and cream and one was a house special they have/make. I can't remember but the pairing was delicious! Perfect in a cake cone. Nice treat for yourself or to share. Plenty for the two of us that night. Not too far of a drive from Galena and easy to find parking.

It is an outside sitting area where in the summer time is always teemed with people! They serve fair style food such as nachos, fries, burgers, and etc. They are locally owned and only open during the summer months. The prices are definitely cheap, but can change. The staff is always helpfully and willing to work with first time children learning to pay with money. I enjoy this place because it can bring you back to a simpler time when the taste of the food and service where all that mattered! Definitely stop in if you are in the area in the summers. It is right off HWY 80 and HWY 14. This place has a double in Madison, WI on Park St. called Carnivals!

The DairyO has a fairly decent lunch/dinner & dessert (ice cream, shakes, etc) menu with walk-up ordering and outdoor picnic seating area. Never any complaints - good food and nice people within a relaxed community setting. Only a few blocks from the community center, baseball fields and outdoor swimming pool so expect a handful of kids... it's been a local favorite for many, many years.
