They have probably 30 flavours of ice cream from different suppliers. I counted two kinds of cheesecake ice creams, several chocolate ice creams such as gold medal ribbon, chocolate, chocolate brownie, Rolo, espresso flake, two kinds of moose tracks ice creams, and fruity flavours such as strawberry, raspberry, and peach. We chose a single scoop of peach ice cream on a wafer cone. The peach ice cream had bits of peaches in it. The serving was generous, enough for hubby and I to share. Cash or debit payment only. They have seating outside where you can enjoy your frozen treats.

My choice was raspberry bugaboo; raspberry ice cream with flecks of moose tracks and raspberry filled mini chocolate cups. Must stop by again when I'm in the area!

The ambiance is cute, but it's a small shop so dine-in isn't an option. There are cute benches nearby so this wasn't a problem at all.

If you follow the route, it leads to another bigger parking lot. Parking is free! Reservations are highly recommended. My guest and I made a reservation for two for 1:30pm. It was very busy when we walked in. We got a table right by the door. There were artwork and paintings hung all around the cafe - it was cute. I ordered an afternoon tea set, as well as an extra breakfast burrito for my guest and I to share. There is a tea menu to look at all the various options they have. It was nice to see that they had many options to choose. Our set came with mini sandwiches, scones and dessert and fruits. I would definitely come back to visit - it would be nice to come in the summer and book a table out on their patio.

Apparently they're open year-round. The beer was cold and refreshing. However, the nachos were very salty when you add chicken on top it's a whole breaded fillet chicken, which is sliced into little pieces. It was really good and crunchy. I would definitely go back here again and try other items. Also when you're looking out at the lake, they have a little lit up boat that goes around the perimeter of the patio. The patio itself sits right on top of the lake.

I am so happy that we did because the pistachio gelato I ordered and the cookies and creme my boyfriend had were amazing! The consistency was perfect; smooth and creamy! The flavor was spot on, tasted great and came with a complimentary waffle slice! There were two women working while I went in and they were very pleasant, helped us out and let us try as many flavors of gelato that we wanted. The shop itself is small and quaint, with lots of sweet options. What caught my eye were the salt water taffy in many odd flavors such as maple bacon. Unfortunately I didn't grab any, I am still regretting that but there is always next time because I will be back!

Almost missed this place as when we checked on map, we assumed it was a drive in theatre. But so…read moreglad we made it here rather than a US fast food chain nearby. Any day support local owned businesses. Kids had cheesy fries - good fries and fairly good cheese sauce, didn't taste CheezWiz. Mac and Cheese wedges. Again fairly good and freshly fried to order. The Spicy Fries (were vegan/plant based) - were coated and not spicy to us. Even a spice averse person with us could easily handle it. The quantity good and again fried to order so they came out piping hot. The Non Dairy / Vegan Sea Salt Caramel Coffee regular hard ice cream was very good. So glad SRDI keeps and the local dairy makes a vegan version. Made this vegan very happy. Kids took quite a few pictures of the playground, large muskoka chair, the small plane, mini golf ($). Picnic benches were perfect for a warm spring day. Definitely visiting again if in Goderich area.

It's a blink and you'll miss it type of place but it's easy to find right off the highway and has plenty of parking out front. Open only during the summer months and worth the wait in line (there usually is one), it's pure nostalgia at its finest. The retro sign, the walk-up order window, the giant play area for the kids. It's easy to see why this place has been a beloved part of the community for 50+ years. The food is delicious and consists of mostly fast food style burgers, hot dogs and deep fried favorites. They have a large selection of ice cream, both hard (Shaw's) and soft, and the biggest decision you'll be making is which flavour to get as they have a ton to choose from. My recos: - Ranchburger (comes w/ ham) - Mac and cheese wedges w/ ranch (my mom's fav) - Fries w/ ketchup & mayo - Banana milkshake - Soft serve: coconut or banana - Sundaes: blueberry or strawberry All in all, it's a nice place to check out with lots of tables to eat outside and the big open sky is great for watching sunsets. Bonus if there are small planes taking off and landing beside you on the runway.

They serve cones, cups, waffle cones, sundaes, floats, milkshakes, floats. They offer an Eggo Waffle Sundae and Brownie Sundae here! A single scoop waffle cone is only $5 tax included. The cozy old fashioned ice cream shop is decorated with classic antiques including lots Coca-Cola memorabilia, Disney stuff, and miscellaneous trinkets. Justin Bieber who grew up in Stratford less than 10 minutes from this shop, has visited here and his framed picture is hanging up on the wall. There is limited seating inside and a few picnic tables outside in front of the building. I stopped in on a very hot summer day for a Coffee Milkshake. I ordered a Small Coffee Milkshake ($6) which is made with real coffee and blended with any flavour of ice cream (I chose Butterscotch Ripple). The coffee shake was very thick, rich, sweet and refreshing! This just what I needed, a cold dessert drink with caffeine too!
