You immediately feel comfortable when you walk in. The staff was extremely friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. Most importantly, the ice cream was amazing -- very flavorful, creamy, and clearly made with quality ingredients. Every bite was delicious. If you're anywhere near Turlock, this place is definitely worth stopping by. We will definitely come back next time we're in the area. Highly recommended!

Came to Oak Barrel Ice & Creamery because I wanted to try all the ice cream places in Turlock. One…read moreof the creamiest scoops of ice cream ever! Located in Scandia Village - Oak Barrel is just a small little shop that packs huge flavor. The inside has one cramped table where two workers were chatting when we first arrived. They quickly moved to behind the counter to help us out. We ordered: Banana cream chunk - This tasted like ripe bananas with huge chocolate chunks. Super good. Blackberry balsamic - This was like a strawberry smoothie in ice cream form. Caramel crunch - The SO really enjoyed this one. It had big ol' pieces of praline. Service was great. I didn't feel rushed and I was able to try other flavors (red licorice tasted just like Red Vines!). They also had a black licorice that the SO would have enjoyed, but he didn't try it. I'm already planning another visit soon!

She said of course, then I asked her if it could be ready by the 10th and she said no problem. This was my 2nd time ordering a large order. I went to pick up my order on a rainy day. The 2 workers, I forgot their names, but they were so great to me. One of them asked if I needed help carrying to the car, I advised her that I was ok just to offer that made me smile. Customer service has changed tremendously, it's good to know that there is still GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. This service was provided on April 10, 2026. Thank you for making me smile on what was a hard day for me. Turlock See's you ROCK!!!!!

I ended up trying a chocolate chip cookie, lemon bar, mini confetti cookies, and a boysenberry pocket--which was my favorite. The cookies were decent, but the boysenberry pocket really stood out: flaky, held together perfectly, and full of flavor. The ambiance was inviting, and I was pleasantly surprised to see they also offer a variety of sandwiches and other menu items. I'd definitely come back to try more of those, along with additional desserts and pastries. I even picked up some dog treats while I was there--always love discovering places like this!

Today was my first time trying lunch at Center Street Grill in Turlock. It was a mixed bag for me…read more First, I was one of the first to arrive in the dining room for lunch, where it was nice and quiet (which I needed as I had a meeting with an officer from a local non-profit to discuss some fundraising things). Shortly after, a group of about 8 ladies arrived and began talking a bit loudly while enjoying their lunch. It occurred to me that the design of the place enhances the sound (a lot of hard, flat surfaces) so for a quiet lunch, this may not be your place. After my associate arrived, we asked to move over by the wall behind the cash register. This worked fine until one of the employees propped open a door a few feet away, supposedly so another worker could carry in some supplies. I got up and closed it. The first one came back, looked at me and propped it open again, the other employee walked in with four gallons of liquid, leaving the door open, and the draft blowing. I got up and closed it again. For the rest of the time we were there, neither worker came back to pass through would have been an open door. My message, the management doesn't care about their customers (which seems to have been commented on by other reviewers). Fortunately, throughout the meal, our server was attentive, did a fine job of seeing to our needs, the food (we both had salads) were plentiful and tasty. We both remarked on the quality of the chicken, not dry, not tough, spot on. Overall, I probably won't return soon because there are so many other places left to try in the city and county first.
