    Absolutely, without a doubt... awesome lil ice cream parlor with an old fashioned country vibe! The staff were very friendly & welcoming! There is a nice variety of homemade unique tasty ice cream! We enjoyed banana pudding & butter pecan ice cream! It did not disappoint! When we visit again, this place is definitely on our list!

    Smithfield Country Ham Sandwich

    Stopped in after a play at the Smithfield Little Theater. The Country Ham Sandwich was very good! Salty, and simple. I don't know what to say about this place except comfortable, nostalgic, friendly and good simple eats!

    I love the ice cream here. The Hershey's ice cream is so nostalgic! I haven't been to an ice cream parlor like this since I was a child. The food could be a little better but the ice cream was amazing. I love the location in the middle of Main Street in Downtown Smithfield. This is one of my favorite places and I love walking down Main Street and looking at some of the shops on a leisurely stroll. It's very beautiful, especially with all the Victorian style homes!

    Close up Hot Reuben
    Amy M.

    I love visiting Smithfield for its small town charm and not being congested. The hubs and I had finished kayaking in the area before stopping in. Luckily we found parking on the streets right by the shop on a Sunday. Upon entering we saw candy striped awning with a fifties feeling of an old fashioned ice cream shop. Red stools and booths gave the place color. This one in particular had a sandwich station on one side near the entrance with ice-cream on the end. Sandwiches and ice-cream, my favorite combination all in one place. We walked up to the counter and looked up at the menu. I decided on a hot Reuben while my better half who wasn't as famished as I was chose the kids grilled cheese. Both came with a pickle, chips on a paper plate. One thing I heard a lot was the microwave. It was positioned not to far away from where they toasted the bread. I guess that's how they melt the cheese and quickly make "hot" sandwiches. My Reuben was tasty and warm. It was good thousand island dressing, sauerkraut, and pastrami. Both sandwiches were served on paper plates making it easier to dispose of it. Salty ruffle chips followed to accompany my sandwich. I found out they serve Hershey's Premium Ice-cream. I was a bit confused, because the shop said Smithfield's ice-cream parlor. I thought it was going to be home made or in-house made where their ice-cream creations was exclusive to their store. That was a bit disappointing, but we still ordered a strawberry milkshake to satisfy our sweet cravings. It was cold, thick and creamy. Hershey's is a good brand when it's available to have. It was a great stopover for lunch. Great place for families, friends, and little ones to grab a quick bite. We will be back when we are in town :)

    Came here for dinner on a sat evening. There's plenty of seating both in and outside, plus there…read morewere plenty of folks there so I figured it was going to be good. The wait staff were super nice and accommodating so that was nice. Ordered a 10pc chicken tenders with macaroni and cheese, a brisket sando with a side of baked beans and broccoli bacon salad. The tenders was ordered as a meal, but for some reason a drink is not included in the meal. The brisket sando was okay, a little dry so I had to hit it with the spicy sweet bbq sauce (which was just sweet, no spice at all). I ordered the brisket sando based on the dude in front of me who got the pulled pork sando, and when I watched the server put a huge scoop of pulled pork on the bread I just knew it was going to be the same for me...but it wasnt. I got 3 strips of brisket. The baked beans were good, almost a little too sweet. The broccoli bacon salad was a cold dish, and was tossed in a overly sweet white sauce. Think coleslaw but instead of shredded lettuce, broccoli. I wasn't a fan. The macaroni and cheese was more like a boxed product. However the chicken tenders were super good and I highly recommend those. All that for 48 bucks. I was pleasantly surprised the machine didn't ask for a tip, that was nice.

    The food--absolutely delicious! The portions are generous, and everything we've tried has been…read moreconsistently amazing. I especially appreciate that they accommodate my special request for their mouthwatering pulled pork without sauce whenever possible. The seasoning and flavors are always spot on. The chicken tenders are unlike any I've ever had--perfectly breaded with a texture and taste that really stand out. Pair them with the awesome sauce, and it's perfection. Every side dish is a hit, but the broccoli salad is my personal favorite. My kids can't get enough of the fries and mac and cheese! To top it all off, the ice cream and milkshakes are extra creamy--you can definitely tell they use high-quality ingredients. We've sampled just about everything on the menu, and every single dish has been outstanding. QDaddy's is a must-visit!
