I'm not very adventurous when it comes to ice cream so I ordered a small cup of vanilla w whipped cream on top. It was refreshing, didn't melt down too quickly and had great taste. There were alot of people stopping in for their treat. Whit's has a big menu at their entrance to get foot traffic. Since the shop is small it was smart to have the sign outside so people could have in mind what they wanted before they stepped inside. It cuts down on the overcrowding inside and allows the line inside to move quickly. I got my ice cream after a small wait and took it outside and sat on their bench to enjoy the weather. So good. I highly recommend this parlor after a trip to Snappy's Diner.

On a whim, we stopped in at Whit's and I'm glad we did. Very nice lady was manning the store by herself and was as pleasant as could be. We opted for banana splits, a bargain at 7.50 each. See the pix and you'll see why we loved the place.

We pulled in a parking place right in front of the Dairy Center mid afternoon, As you walk in they have a small counter to the left and a couple booths and tables to the right. All the walls are decorated with things from before the 60's! Also, they will also serve you in your car! We were quickly greeted by a very friendly smile. I started off with a Pepsi, even thought I'm a Coke guy. I didn't mind because this place is special. After a few sips of Pepsi, we ordered. I got a cheese burger with onion rings, ok one of the best I have ever had and the Onion rings were the best!!, My oldest Grand Daughter also got a Cheeseburger with fries and polished it off and loved the crinkle fries! The youngest Grand Daughter got a Grilled Cheese! Our waitress was amazing, Hannah went above and beyond to make my Grand Daughters feel very special that day!! She made the oldest smile sooo Big after a VIP experience it was very heart warming! What Hannah didn't know at the time was that the oldest was diagnosed with Leukemia just after Easter, and smiles do not come that often. As I took a picture of those two, they made me tear up.... There is so much good in the world and I wish everyone would have seen Hannah's beautiful heart that she shared with these girls! Also, the gentleman flipping the burgers was amazing as well, he could be the owner! He was soft spoken with a giving heart! If you live in the area, please stop in and say thanks to them, and enjoy the food and service! If you are passing by, don't pass up this hidden Gem! As my friend and neighbor Lee sings...God Bless the USA!

I had a footlong all the way with fries and finished it off with Krazy Kolor Ice Cream. It was all yummy, but nothing any more special than another burger and fries joint. The establishment itself is rather messy. I wouldn't say dirty, but tons of tables empty and un-wiped. Bits and pieces of trash here and there. The drink counter had stuff spilled all over it and trash on it as well. The workers here have no personality. We've been here twice in the last six months and everyone we've interacted with has been dull and unlively, which is a bummer. They have a drive-through which is great if you want a hot dog or burger and fries to go in a rather quick time and there is patio seating available.

They have delicious ice cream, service is usually really good and the restaurant and bathrooms stay pretty clean. My issue tonight is only one thing, but it's a significant thing and nothing that is in the employees control. The menu items are NOT correct. There was a price on the menu that said the soup combo was 6.99 and the cashier stated they couldn't do the chicken stew as the soup combo and that was fine. The hand written sign on the register said the chicken stew was $6.99. Our total came up to $43 for 3 people and I thought that was kind of high, but we then I remembered we ordered the soup and a wrap extra to try so we figured it was right. After paying I got to looking and everything was rang up at at least $0.50 extra per item than the menu said. One of the items on the menu was $5.29 but rang up as $5.92 and so it seems like it's an intentional overcharge on items but making it appear to be the same price by just flipping numbers. We aren't really thrilled with that. $0.50 extra per item isn't a ton, but it adds up and I'd rather you just list the correct prices for sure. We didn't bother the kids working with it because in the past we have been told that they have mo way of changing what the register says. So food is good but watch what the prices are ringing up as !

All the yogurt machines worked and they had a good selection (at least 10 flavors). I've been to other Sweet Frog locations and a common problem is the sugar-free/vegan options don't get the same amount of upkeep, but I was happy to note that the Mt. Airy location didn't have this problem! The toppings bar seemed fairly clean and the fruit actually tasted decently fresh. Gloves were also provided to touch the equipment and serving spoons so the overall environment made us feel good about our visit. The real pros of this location are that they provide a pretty consistent experience, I've never had a problem with quality, and they stay open until 9 pm which is late for Mt. Airy. They are also worth following online because they constantly have seasonal and holiday promos as well as offers where they work with other local businesses. And who could forget no weigh Wednesday? The cons are that the shop is pretty small and seating is super limited and if you accidentally stop in when they're busy parking won't be fun, the self serve experience will be annoying and don't expect to be able to get a seat and enjoy your treat. The biggest aggravation from my last visit that was I wanted to see the nutritional chart which is at the beginning of the yogurt line and a family came in and didn't distance and instead stood right beside me huffing and tapping their feet waiting for me to grab my yogurt and get out of their way. They could have gone around me, but for whatever reason, they didn't. That isn't so much the store's fault but the atmosphere here is usually someone letting their kids run around and scream, people impatiently trying to push you through the line, or a large group of people taking up all the seating. I've had experiences here on slow days that were super enjoyable, but it's hard to always know when their slow hours will be. Overall, the store is definitely clean and friendly and the yogurt is definitely worth the price, but the other patrons usually don't ever make us want to stay and eat our yogurt. This isn't really the business's fault that they're popular, but it can get pretty annoying.
