The small scoops are huge so be sure you are hungry enough to eat a medium or more. They also have soft serve ice cream as well as a plethora of milk shakes and sundaes. I had the Grasshopper Pie hand-dipped come. DELICIOUS! There is something for everyone here so c'mon down and check it out. It's what old time ice cream times is all about.

Cut to the chase: great ice cream, nasty service. We were there yesterday afternoon and my husband…read moreand I were so put off that we decided a review was in order so that the owners might know. When we got there, there were only 2 other people getting ice cream (not busy). The girl at the order window (tall with heavy black eyeliner in "wings") neither greeted us, nor thanked us, nor even could manage the slightest smile. She was one of the most unpleasant counter staff we've ever encountered. The other girl there who handed us our ice cream wasn't much better. We both looked at each other like "What the heck?" Then we laughed at the tip jar. I don't think this is the experience Straw Hat owners want for their customers.

Both hard and soft served ice cream are available. Orders are consistently delicious, especially the dole whip whose flavors are rotated. Try strawberry dole whip with chocolate crackle. Mango dole whip also good. Portions run on the large side. Employees are well-trained so orders are accurate and delivered quickly. Some outside seating is available; no inside seating.

They also have normal bucket icecream you can dig into and stack up the scoops.The sitting area is huge you can sit down and play on the swings and just the kids that a sugared up to the gills to burn it off and sack out in the car on the drive home. Next door is Miniature Golf that you can really play a really nice course which is owned by the ice cream people. Think about it, they load you up with ice cream and sugar and then you see the golf and get up and spend more money. Its an excellent business plan . Well done.

There are also plenty of picnic tables available. I'll be back soon!

When your food is ready, they call out your order number to pick it up. You find your own seating with most of the seating being outside. We ordered cheeseburgers and chicken tenders with fries. The food was decent, and our vanilla milkshake was very good. It's a fun atmosphere with lots of décor to look at and the staff is very friendly. This is a fun stop when arriving/leaving Presque Isle.

Awesome atmosphere, boring food…read more The food is quite boring. Edible, cooked well, but no oomph. Really neat place to see though and service was quick and friendly. I won't come back, but glad I tried it. The kids weren't super excited either. Side note, the turkey burger that I tried was not worth it.

Although the sign blends into the environment, the idea of baked goods always catches my attention. My husband purchased a red velvet brownie which must have been amazing because he wasn't willing to share, only commenting that it was soft,chewy and delicious. When he wasn't looking, I stole a pumpkin cookie out of the bag and packed the moist, cake-like cookie into my mouth like a squirrel. The frosting on top is what made it for me, not too sweet or gritty - I really like soft cookies and (if this place wasn't an hour away) would gladly come back for more. They also offered a variety of cake pop flavors, stunning special occasion cakes & cute little pies. The prices are a little higher than what I'm used to back home but not unreasonable either. After all, there is nothing else in the area! So if you're craving something sweet or a nice gift for someone- you wont be disappointed by Palma's.
