So much care is apparent just peeking around the place! (See pictures!) I ordered just a kiddie cone of toasted coconut (I was still full but didn't want to left without something!). As I mentioned earlier she had a limited amount of things available. Only down side was my husband's malt was a bit lackluster (very milky and not much flavor) but that's just what happens sometimes.

They do offer soft serve, flavor burst, and Hudsonville ice cream! Also, they have a huge menu but not all the options on their menu are current.

They have a lot of unique sundae options, which made it surprisingly difficult to choose. I ended up getting the Peanut Butter Shipwreck with vanilla ice cream, and it was delicious. The ice cream-to-topping ratio was perfect, and the combination of hot fudge and cold ice cream brought everything together really well. It was also very reasonably priced for the portion size. My only critique is that I expected it to be made with hard ice cream rather than soft serve. That said, the soft serve was still very good. It does melt pretty quickly, though, so don't wait too long before digging in. There's plenty of outdoor seating, and they even have a mini golf course in the back. The whole place has a fun, laid-back atmosphere and is a great spot to hang out with family and friends. Their soft serve cones also looked incredibly good and picture-worthy, so I'll definitely be trying one of those the next time I visit.

I was very impressed with the selection of ice creams and they had a few dairy free options as well. They also had GREAT toppings which makes a huge difference at these places! The fruit they had was fresh and not soft/old looking, there was a wide variety of chocolate family toppings, and any sauce you could think of (is sauce the right word? Not sure lol). There was chocolate, caramel, marshmallow, Nutella, and more. My friend got a waffle cone bowl and I got a normal bowl and we each filled ours pretty much full, and the price was not bad! Very reasonable. Right now, they aren't doing the little sample cups due to COVID safety precautions, so you will not be able to try the ice cream/yogurt before you get it, which is a bummer!

Parking is nonexistent, so we decided to hit the drive through and eat at a local park. If you have a large vehicle (truck, full-size SUV, etc...) be very careful in the drive through. It is quite tight. Luckily we had my wife's Blazer, which was no issue. Service was pleasant, polite and fast. As for the food, it wasn't great. I ordered the Denver Bagel Omelette Sandwich. It had a cold Asiago bagel with a piece of ham, scrambled egg, green pepper slices and melted cheese. I think the cold bagel with the warm egg and melted cheese threw it off. It was just a weird warm/cold combo and I was expecting a bit of crunch from the bagel, but was left with a soft, blah texture. My wife ordered the Smoked Salmon Classic Bagel Sandwich. She had the same experience. While she expected a cold bagel with hers, she told me her salmon had zero flavor. She was expecting, salt, lemon, something. She ended up eating the bagel and cream cheese without the salmon. The coffee was okay and look, we are not spoiled high class restaurant critics. We just expect that food will have flavor and some thought put into what is being served. We paid $35 for two bagel sandwiches and two medium coffees. The food just wasn't worth a premium like that. Too many other places to try to come back.
