When you switched containers that you put banana splits in into the cheap Styrofoam containers that a hotdog would normally go in, that was a horrible mistake for the customer... It's one thing if they are eating but they're terrible if you're doing a drive-through and trying to take it home to a family... The Styrofoam containers leak everywhere! If you're going to use that style of container, get some plastic bags for carry out out orders so it doesn't leak all over the customer's car and the bottom doesn't fall out of the paper bag while you're trying to carry it into the house.... I'm not trying to be picky. I just don't like having big messes in my car....

We do most of our grocery shopping in 3 places, Fareway (we want to support local) in Colfax, Fareway and Walmart in Newton and occasionally Fareway in Altoona. All of the 2%, 1%, cottage cheese and half/half go bad before the "use before date ", by as much as a week prior! We make sure to properly store in the car and in our frig. What is happening?? I knew that the old fashioned cottage cheese had changed quite awhile ago (bc of no more hand packing?) but these milk issues are becoming intolerable. We are in our 70's and on a fixed income. This is a problem that I NEVER would have expected from AE Dairy. Just wanted you to know the situation from one of your 60+ years customer. Hoping for better results ahead. Thanks for your attention to this. Mitzi Gillam, 4088 Hwy 117 S Colfax, IA.

The staff were friendly and helped explain some of their menu items. I wish the ice cream was a little thicker. They say their artic swirls are "what a blizzard wishes they were".

It wasn't too bad though.

There are a few tables inside, so I sat and ate my ice in the ac on a hot night.

They have a decent-sized dining area here for patrons to sit and eat. They also have burritos, elote, frescas, torta, epandas, popsicles, hand-scooped ice cream, maganadas, smoothies, banana splits, and fries. The staff was friendly enough, but my interaction with them was very brief. I ordered the strawberries and cream. It was ready in less than 5 minutes. The strawberries were so fresh. It was really good. I wish the cream were a bit thicker, though. It was very runny. Anyway, this is a nice spot to get some Mexican food and a sweet treat to go along with it. I would recommend checking this place out, and I look forward to coming back and trying some more of their traditional Mexican frozen treats.

Usually I go…read moreall the way to Ankeny to the Outside Scoop, so having an ice cream place alot closer is a win for me. Unfortunately, the service was awful. I walked in and I was not greeted. The two people behind the counter just continued to talk, and I get it high school/college kids just don't take anything serious now a days. Well, after waiting to be greeted and nothing happening I got the gentleman's attention by asking to try two flavors out. After that I decided to get a milkshake using their peach ice cream. I was charged a specialty shake... which was way more than the shakes listed on the board. I didn't know why it was labeled a specialty shake. So, that was interesting. After I paid the two workers just continued to talk. Eventually, I saw my shake sitting at the counter and I grabbed and left. The shake was good! I'll probably not go back just because of the service and the prices.

Classic frozen custard A classic old school custard stand…read morewith old school ambiance. it's a hidden gem in the South Side of Des Moines and doesn't have a fancy outside facade it's been open for fifty two years (1974) and is one of the oldest custard type places around the greater Des Moines area , including Culver's. This place is about its ice cream custard. I've been there so many times and usually I have no problem going there and getting it out. It's right off of Southeast 14th street and well worth a trip from anywhere in the Des Moines area, it has enough parking, so if you have kids and want to go in a little nostalgia thing or you just love good custard, check it out. Many times I order the lemon, but I've had strawberry cookies and cream, chocolate and even vanilla and never been disappointed. I'm a person of a certain age, so, quite frankly, I usually get the junior cup and it's well worth it for me and you usually put enough in there that you couldn't ask for more. It's just so rich and ultra creamy custard with great portions Locally owned and seasonal, typically opening in February and closing for the winter in late December. Daily summer hours run from 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM (or 2:00 PM opening depending on the specific seasonal schedule)
