I had seen so many people parked at this ice cream shop that we had to try it out. So I took my today and when we entered, we were greeted by a very nice young lady. Very happy and pleasant. There was so many different flavors of ice cream and I had my heart set on a banana split, but they had an awesome flavor of chocolate ice cream. It was chocolate raspberry! It was so delicious. I had a scoop of that in the and fresh strawberry and vanilla on the side. The banana was very fresh and the girl loaded up on everything all the toppings and extra hot fudge. The thing was huge! And I can't believe I ate it but it was delicious. My had the chocolate peanut butter. There was more massive chunks of peanut butter than there was chocolate . She said it was very but she couldn't finish it because it was too much peanut butter and when I say big pieces of peanut butter, it was probably 3 inch wide by maybe 3 inch deep and maybe an inch thick and there was chunks of it in there. We had ordered some orange drink and it was good little bit different. we had a nice table by the water and everything was very clean. Lots of people came and there and as we were leaving, cars were beginning to to enjoy the delicious ice cream. They're a little pricey, but it is well worth it. I would give them a try.

Little ice cream parlor that could on Hudson Beach. They advertise 40 flavors and of course all sorts of frozen treats, including banana splits and sundaes. My go to is chocolate but my friend talked me into trying their salt caramel cheesecake. It was melt on your tongue smooth and creamy. The taste of the salted caramel was not too sweet with the velvety cheesecake richness. The place is very rustic despite being more local than touristy. They do a steady business and are a local favorite. I think it was one of the owners making sure the parking lot was clean. He was friendly and joking with us. The lady behind the counter was super friendly and patient while we took our time making our final selections.

A complete ice cream parlor experience Whimsical vibe inside with historical music decorations all over from vinyl to plaques and posters of entertainment icons like Marilyn Monroe and Elvis. They had a lot of flavors including some dairy free options, service was friendly but you can tell they get a lotttt of work. Ice cream was delicious we got a milkshake and a Sunday. They have wet toppings (sauces etc) and dry toppings you can really get creative here. It's right down the street from a chill little beach so you can go enjoy your ice cream by the water if the weather is nice. Great spot Highly recommend!

Great drink selection

We had a sweet Saturday at Hudson Beach Ice Cream Parlor at their Ice Cream 4 Breakfast event I opted for their Belgian Waffle Sundae with Vanilla Gator Tracks ice cream, hot fudge drizzle, whipped cream, and a sprinkle of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The ice cream was delicious enough to stand alone, and was chock full of tiny peanut butter cups. But pairing it with the Belgian waffle made it a gloriously decadent breakfast. The space itself is nostalgic and charming. I'm a Florida native, and some of my favorite tourist spots have been ice cream shops near the water. But this place feels like it's for the locals, too. The whole staff is friendly and quick to help, and the 50's retro theming adds to the lighthearted vibe here. You can take a picture with James Dean, or check out their selection of novelty candies for purchase. And if you've got some change in your pocket they have a selection of toy-vending bubblegum machines, too. This was not my first visit here, and I hope you'll make this a regular stop as well. After all, we all deserve a little treat from time to time. And you can't go wrong by supporting this beloved local spot.

Established July 7, 1960 -- same location, same World Famous Footlongs, still slinging them out of a kitchen that's clearly been doing this a long, long time. There's even a framed cease-and-desist letter from Subway's lawyers on the wall over the word "Footlong" -- they told 'em no. Fifteen years later, still hanging there, still called a Footlong. We had the Short Reuben Dog and the Long Chicago Dog, plus a side of fried corn and onion rings. April took great care of us -- sweet, and clearly not slowing down with baby #2 on the way. The Chicago Dog alone is worth the trip -- easily twice the size, cheaper, and better than a certain loud-on-social-media hot dog guy's version. Yes, that's a dig, and yes, it's deserved. Fried corn was a fun surprise, onion rings were solid, and honestly -- what's not to love here? One gripe: there's a credit card upcharge that isn't clearly disclosed up front. Worth knowing before you order. Otherwise, this is a bucket-list stop. Wish we lived closer. We'll be back -- someday, somehow.

It was about 7.50 after paying in cash. I waited for a couple minutes, and it my name was called to pick up my order. I ate outside in a small bench. The hotdog was loaded with the toppings like relish, pickles, and peppers. I added mustard and ketchup too. The hotdog was plump, and the toppings were alright. It isn't as good as Portillos, but still decent for the price. It was filling for lunch too. The atmosphere is the same, but the party room in the back is now available in you have an extra air conditioned space to eat. It wasn't that crowded outside, but there were quite a few inside. I guess more people wanted the cooler area as it was a bit hot and humid outside. Parking can sometimes be hard to get in the front, so there is a back area too. There is a small stage for concerts now, but I haven't seen any yet. The mechanical horse still works, but the dino one was out of order, and the dolphin one looks to be gone. Staff is pretty quick and friendly. I am glad I ate here again on Sunday as the food was good and filling. No complaints for 7.50 on a footlong Nathan Chicago dog. Will continue to visit occasionally when I am in Brooksville. Overall: B

Joe serves Sahlens natural casing hot dogs which I had never tried, but they are now on my favorites list. Sahlens are made in Buffalo NY, and Joe also introduced me to another Buffalo favorite, Loganberry drink, a blackberry-raspberry hybred, which I found very refreshing. When your in the Clearwater area stop by say hi to Joe purchase some dogs from him, you'll be glad you did, and tell him the 1999 Nation's hotdog world champion Steve "The Hotdogterminator" sent you.

As a first time customer, he treats you like you've been coming in for years. I ordered a Chicago Dog and a Polish Sausage, both served on perfectly steamed poppy seed buns with Vienna Beef franks and sausages loaded with super fresh toppings. I also had to try the Italian Beef, served on a fresh French roll piled with tender, juicy beef and hot giardiniera. I spent six years working in Chicago, and Paulie is turning out Chicago classics that rival some of the best I had there. He's ranked #6 on Yelp's Top 100 Sandwich Shops for a reason. Stop by, grab some incredible food, and take a few minutes to chat with Paulie. You'll be glad you did.

The first time I came was right after that article, and there were about 50 people in line, so I left. This Saturday I stopped by at around noon, and I was third in line. WARNING: do not be in a rush! Your food is not coming out quickly. Paulie is a sweetheart, but he is a one-man show, and he likes to chat and get to know all his customers. They currently do not carry the full menu they show online, so I went with a Chicago hot dog, and the Italian beef sandwich. Paulie educated me a bit on the sandwich; if I wanted it juicy (with the sauce already on it) or on the side to dip into (yes, please, I'm a dipper), and how spicy I wanted it (more peppers, less peppers). After a nice chat with Paulie about politics, I headed home and dug in. The Chicago hot dog was perfect, although I had to remove the hot peppers. The sandwich was outstanding; the beef so tender, the peppers and onions adding depth, and the roll was so soft-I could only eat half, but the other half heated up nicely for dinner. Can't wait to go back!

This place just started parking here a few weeks ago and I finally got to stop by and try them…read more Like all food trucks they have a limited menu but they hit all the highlights of a good Chicago hot dog and beef joint. He cooks his slices all his own beef rather than using a bagged product like many of the local places that serve Chicago style. You can taste the difference. The fries are all fresh cut on site, (sadly I can no longer eat root vegetables), but they look promising. He uses real Vienna beef dogs and Polish and has real pizza puffs and sausage or pepperoni. Basically it all sounds good. Being only 2 mi from home for me this is a great addition to the area. I hope he stays. From my first time I ordered an Italian beef dipped with hot giardinara and a Polish sausage Chicago style. It took what felt like less than 5 minutes for my order to be up. We talked a bit and I promise to give an honest review. The beef sandwich when first unwrapped did not appear dipped but it was deceiving. The roles he uses are softer and denser than most Chicago places use, to be fair we are in Florida. There was a lot of giardinara and it did not disappoint. I mean this stuff really brought the heat which was a bit unexpected compared to other local places. The sandwich was well prepared and had a ton of flavor. I will try it again. The Polish while good was nothing for me to write home about. On the plus side it was on a poppy seed bun and tasted good. And the minus side it was one of the smaller Polish and I prefer the bigger ones. Also there was no tomato available, which was no loss for me anymore as I can't have them, and I don't believe there was any celery salt. Next time I will ask just to verify. While not a five-star review, as I judge my actual Chicago quality, it was worth stopping and would be a good place to get a tasty meal for the entire family. Do yourself a favor if you are in the area and give them a try.
