Sure why not, love the ingenuity. Ordered pretzels as an appetizer and the came out hot and fast and the beer cheese was really delicious as well. The table and bench weren't stable and locked in place as we accidentally found out but we managed not to spill our drinks. The burger was well cooked and the fries really impressed us and went well with the extra beer cheese we had left over from the pretzels.

This isn't a bad Dairy Queen, but it isn't a fantastic one. The newer building and location really…read morehelps make a difference, and you can enjoy a nice interior dinner or take advantage of the outdoor seating. However, longer wait times and possibly-incorrect orders mean that I don't tend to go here unless I have a little bit of time to spare. It does hit the delicious craving for ice cream, though. THINGS TO KNOW: -Looking at the past prior reviews, this Dairy Queen used to be an older-built establishment in need of an update. This Dairy Queen has been recently updated (within the past 2 years, I'd estimate), and now it's one of the newest-looking buildings in this part of Monmouth. -Has a drive-thru and order-in interior. -Has a decently-spacious parking lot. -Is one of the new "Grill & Chill" locations that offers both warm foods and desserts. Offers a full Dairy Queen menu including Orange Julius. Pros: -Has an indoor bathroom. (I've never had to list this as a "pro" before, but it seems like a good chunk of the reviews list this as a problematic point. It's been since fixed) -Tables and seating are usually open. Looks like a lot of Monmouth residents probably take their treats to go. On a couple cases, I've seen uncleaned tables from people who'd made a mess and the tables hadn't been cleaned yet, but for the most part, it's easy to find a spot to sit. -The restaurant mostly uses tables and chairs. This means they have quite a bit of seating indoors, again, reducing the amount of problem getting a seat. -It also has an outdoor sitting area. In this heat, I wouldn't want to right now, but it's an option. It overlooks one of the busier roads in Monmouth, though, so it's not the most scenic of views. But it's not so loud that you can't carry on a conversation. Cons: -Seems to be staffed by a LOT of high school kids. They aren't bad at their jobs, per say, but I don't see anyone really old enough keeping them in a good line. For example, if there's a line growing, you'll occasionally see a staff member looking confused as to whether they should be helping or making food or what to do. -Again, staff is relatively unknowledgeable. I've watched a couple people come in with questions about cakes or other treats, and it requires a couple people conversing or attempting to look up some information to figure out the answer to the question. -Wait here is pretty long. It's not the worst, but depending on how busy they are, you can expect to spend a good amount of time waiting. -Have had some issues with incorrect orders. Staff seems confused but willing to remake the item when this happens.

Looking for an icy cool treat on a hot day? Head up the road to Mcdonalds because the customer…read moreservice and quality there runs circles around this establishment! I'm not sure if there is a management issue here or an overall employee issue, but this DQ is the WORST! My last visit I ended up the wrong item the first time, and when they 'fixed' it, they put chocolate chips in my lemon lime freeze. I'm still not sure if it was pure carelessness or done out of malice after having to correct the order. Our most recent visit we ordered two blizzards. The second one was so soupy there was no 'turning it upside down' it was dripping all over before it ever hit the car. Not only were they both a soupy mess, neither one was mixed as you can clearly see in the picture. I have tried calling and even left messages to speak to management about the poor service but my calls are never returned. I would not recommend this Dairy Queen location to anyone, next time you are passing through Monmouth for ice cream, keep going and don't look back!
