And that is where The Scoop really has me hooked as a dad. The service, especially how respectfully the workers treat the kids, is so welcoming. The pricing is quite fair. The dining area is consistently clean and neat. And the flavor selection is both broad and creative--they're willing to whip out some odd flavors where many places just stick to "the standards." You can tell the folks involved in The Scoop care, and the caring is the difference. Also, the location is pretty cool because after eating some pho next door and loading it up with the GOOD chili oil, I really need that ice cream cooldown.

Recently checked out this ice cream store with my wife after we checked out the Vietnamese place…read morenext door. This place featured a general selection of ice cream flavors. Stay out here was very friendly though they were pretty young too. The store was pretty quiet too but the selection of ice cream wasn't too bad at all. If you are curious about the flavor they let you sample the ice cream. They even have only one non-dairy flavor for those that are particular. There are a couple of gluten-free flavors too. I do enjoy that it's open until 9pm. Overall, I thought it was a pretty average place for an ice cream store.

Ordered a birthday cake 2 days ahead, called for many times and noone picked up the phone. I had to drive there to place the cake order. A young guy who worked there took my order and asked if I want writing on it. After I gave him what writing I want, he asked what color would I like the writing to be. I said red, please. Then he asked if I like some strawberries or caramel for decoration on top, I said that sounds good. We came to pick up my son's cake and this is what we got.. plain white cake with pale green writing and my son's name even written in lower case. He seems very sad that his cake looks so plain and his name wasn't even starts with uppercase D We all are very disappointed with marble slab this time. They need to do a better job for a made to order cake.

I visited this sandwich shop / ice cream shop during lunch on my 2nd day in town while on a…read morebusiness trip. Inside its pretty eclectic with many items posted on the walls. To me it looks more like a tea shop than a sandwich shop. During our visit, they played fairly loud religious music for a sandwich shop. Next door was an ice cream shop but I didn't feel like any ice cream after eating and I'm not a big Blue Bell fan anyway. They have 2 menus and a lot of items to choose from but most are breakfast or lunch items. I went with a specialty sandwich, the Victoria (a chicken sandwich on ciabatta bread) and a sweet tea. I added their homemade potato salad for $1 more. The sandwich - this was a tasty sandwich on soft ciabatta bread but only 1 problem, the kitchen put American cheese on it. The menu indicated it had cheddar. Luckily they were able to bring me some cheddar from the kitchen while I was scraping off the processed cheese. Overall, it was pretty good because of a sauce they put on it which is slathered all over the shredded chicken. Potato salad - this is mayo based, quite different than the mustard based potato salad in the south. They added plenty of dill on the sandwich which made my colleague cringe since he also substituted for potato salad, but I thought it was pretty good. The service was a little strange as I heard our waitress keep making mistakes with another nearby table too as she kept saying "sorry" to that table as well.

One is for breakfast and lunch and one serves sandwiches, coffee, and ice cream. We chose the latter one. Small dining area but it was not busy so we seated ourselves.

But our favorite is The Rose. Their homemade pimento cheese with bacon and pepper jelly on ciabatta was amazing!

We grabbed a booth (you can seat yourself when you go in). Make sure you go in through the ENTER door. We started with waters while we looked over the menu. The waters were 32 oz to go cups! It's been 10 days since our visit and I think I'm still sipping on that water. It was a LOT of water. Our order consisted of a two hot dogs, onion rings, milkshakes, and a hot caramel cake. The hot dogs were good. Not great, but good. The onion rings were very nearly burnt. Probably just a touch too crispy. The milkshakes were ok. But one thing moved this review from a 3 to 4 star: the hot caramel cake. Holy cow. I know it was relatively simple but the yellow cake cupcake, in a bowl filled to the brim with hot caramel sauce, and a tower of vanilla soft serve....YUM! I'd come back here just for that. The service was hit or miss depending on who stopped by the table. All in all, I'd return but I'd try a burger and get a hot caramel cake AND a hot fudge cake.
