Ordered a "deluxe" 1000 Grand which ended up being a chocolate shake with rice crispies in it for $8. Went back in and asked if it was made right? Rude girl was so extremely annoyed with me for this question. Nice boy told me they could make me a different one but went back to working and cleaning so had to ask rude girl any questions. Ended up with something I didn't really want to order but just wanted out of there. We won't be back.

The tart berries cut through the sweetness of the cheesecake flavors. The staff were warm and cheerful and as sweet as the candy next door. I felt like a long lost friend upon arrival. I enjoy the cozy & old fashioned atmosphere of the Soda Fountain Shoppe. The building is an impressive 150 years old and was a traditional mercantile/general store. It feels both old and yet familiar to me. Even the restroom was clean & tidy. With a price as yummy as their treats I feel I'm likely to return often.

I recommend using vanilla as the base, but butter pecan as the base is good too. I've also enjoyed the cookie dough, the cookies n cream, and the lemon custard.

If you like your ice cream (enjoyed in a cone or cup), you can also find more in the freezer pack to-go. They also sell a lot of food items (made in Iowa) as well as a bit of fresh produce, milk, and meat. There are places to sit both inside and outside to enjoy the ice cream. This is a good place to stop with a family or maybe to take a break from a bike ride from the nearby trail.

Don't be put off by the "popcorn" in the title. We went for the ice cream. There's a great variety and everything we tried was delicious. Our crew tried the buttered pecan, the raspberry-lemon Italian ice, and Hailey's comet. Be aware that one scoop is a huge serving here. Service was really friendly and helpful. There's a few tables inside, a row of chairs outside along the front, and a couple of tables and chairs in a side courtyard. We did not try the popcorn but a lot of people were buying it.

And I noticed this was next-door so while I was waiting to get my test done, I looked on their website and it said butter brickle ice cream. So naturally, I had to go in. The place was clean and cool, especially considering how hot it was today. The staff was friendly and helpful. And the butter brickle ice cream, was if you're old enough to remember, like the old blue bunny ice cream back in the day. To save myself, future headaches, I only bought two scoops and I did not take any home for my freezer, but I was very tempted to do so. I also bought a double scoop for the gentleman who did my tests next-door. I bought two scoops and I took a lid with me, but it did not last the 45 minute ride home. In short, it was great ice cream and it tasted just like the old recipe did back in the day. Five out of five, would recommend, will return
