    Soft Serve with Rainbow Sprinkles
    John G.

    These ladies are so kind and serve the best soft serve in the area!! Today my 3 year old daughter decided she wanted sprinkles after our order had been prepared and the young lady serving us was more than happy to oblige. I offered to pay but she refused. It's the little things in life Asheville!! I'll be sure to leave her a juicy tip our next time through!

    Mini banana split cup

    Drive thru line moved really fast. The young lady at the window was super nice and friendly. I got the mini banana split cup and it was amazing. Highly recommend!!!

    I think even the smallest of towns have had something similar to this Tastee Freeze over the years, it's building may have been abandoned or repurposed by now as the mom and pop operations entered it second or third generation or the branded ice cream stores have opened with their new fandango twist on something as old as ice cream, ice creams probably began around 500 BC in the Achaemenid Empire (Persia) I'm sure it was a much different take on the product we ate as a kid and even more different than today's novelties with the advancement in refrigeration that allows creativity that is only limited by one's imagination. This little shop looked closed from the street as I drove by, but at the last minute I did see a car appear down the side of the building where apparently the drive-up window is, so I flipped a U-ey like any good Floridian would do and whipped the Fiat into a space right out front. Like most of the old fashioned ice cream shops the entire front window was plastered with placards of the treats offered here and there were piles of bananas ripening in the glass below the advertisements. I tend to stick to the basics when it comes to ice cream so a cup of the vanilla soft serve suited me fine. Like most shops of this nature the young employees didn't seem to be overly motivated but they were polite and got the product to me and I left a generous tip to their astonishment. This place didn't bring a tear to my eye and it didn't have me reminiscing about years gone by but it sure did bring some relief from the Carolina sun...

    My review

    This place is SOo good, my 5 year old son got a milkshake from here and he really lik it,, he loves the taste and the smell and he likes the smell and he doesn't even like the taste but I don't think it's the best taste for me to eat at all but it was a great treat to get him a drink with his family at his place in town for the first day in the new place I live and I was there a couple years back when I went there for the last year!

    You can order ahead of time and then Drive thru to pick up!

    Ugh. The ice cream is delicious. But buckle up cause you're gonna wait at least half an hour no matter when you go.

    Yep, just like the one in the John Cougar song. Don't expect home made ice cream here. Soft serve with lots of gooey toppings.

    It's frozen custard at it's down-and-out drive-in ice cream stand at its best on a hot and muggy evening.

    After stopping by the arboretum to see the trolls, it was time to grab a small lunch on our way…read moreback to downtown Asheville. We passed Celebrity's Hotdogs on the way to the trolls, and agreed to give it a try on the way home. We arrived around 2:30, so definitely off peak dining time, which was nice. We walked in and right up to the counter, and after a quick review of the menu went with a #1, a hot dog all the way, chips and a canned drink for $6! I explored the space a little while I waited for them to call my order number. The walls are covered floor to ceiling with nascar memorabilia...well, even parts of the ceiling. Not my thing, but I know others will appreciate it The food didn't take long, and it hit the spot. Tasty dog, generous toppings, friendly staff and a great price. Honestly, this probably best deal you'll get in Asheville. I'd definitely recommend this spot to others traveling in the area, especially on a budget.

    10 outa 10 this place is pure America. Staff that sassy and fun to order from. Great with kids to…read moremake them feel special. Hot dogs are amazing as you might imagine. Best way to beat the 5 o'clock traffic on I-26 bypassing the Ashville area. Has tons of racing history and memorabilia all over the walls. Makes you feel like your home back in time but in a classy way not a run down old place. It's well kept with plenty of parking and easy access on and off the road. We found it as a detour to go to to get out of the traffic jam 3 years ago and I've never missed an opportunity to stop on our way. Going to Waynesville in Lake Junaluska.
