Ice cream was awesome, and workers are polite and friendly. Thanks for the pup cups and dog treats.

Aw man. Best hand dipped ice cream I've had in a long time. So sad I'm just passing through town. It would become a favorite regular spot.

Delicious ice cream, outdoor seating primarily, and a fun cow out front! The workers were friendly as well.

The worker was very rude. They sell "giftcards" that expire within two months. We will go to Carmen's Cafe for ice cream from now on.

10/10 would highly recommend. If you need a snack at night this is a good place to go.

I've been here twice, and there's a lot to like. The strawberry and Nutella dessert crepe is on…read morepoint, and goes well with strawberry or vanilla ice cream. The roast beef savory crepe is also tasty -- though a little light on meat. In terms of the milk tea, it is passable. The tapioca pearls are cooked properly, but the tea itself is nothing special. That said, for the price, it's hard to go wrong. The interior could use some work. It's a bit run down, and the paper towel dispensers in the bathroom don't work great. Meanwhile, the service is solid. They were very patient and friendly with my kids.

Checked out this cafe in Carbondale. It has good options for lunch and later. Blend is known for…read morehaving lighter fare. Prices aren't that bad either even with it being one of the nicer restaurants around here. The crepes can be meaty or vegetarian among the many options. Basically this place is all staffed by SIU students with it being close to the campus. It's a scenario that seems like a recipe for disaster. That's not the case entirely. Can be a bit of a wait of course. The menu isn't that big, so it helps keep things running smoother. It's about $5 for a crepe. They have savory and sweet. Among the savory ones, we tried the mushroom. These were good and light enough that we didn't get filled up. For dessert you can get sweet ones. These include fruit fillings and whipped cream on top. Good place for tea and crepes. It's located on University Avenue at Mill Street. They frequently close for school events and vacations.
