    Cookie Monster combo (added edible cookie dough in ice cream)
    L.J. B.

    Staff was young and customer service was absent. No one greeted me or the people who came after. Fend for yourself when trying to find a menu or read a description. The proportions were off in the mixture and I was not as impressed as I was before at a previous location.

    We went on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy. But the staff were very helpful. My daughter has food allergies so when I mentioned it, they made sure to switch gloves and use a different scoop for her ice cream. Then my three year old son dropped his ice cream and was crying and one of the staff was so kind and got him another one and gave him an extra scoop too!

    My husband and I took the grandkids to the milkshake bar as a special treat. The server was so sweet and was very patient while we were trying to make selections for them. They even have non dairy options. The cookies and cream ice cream is delicious. My husband got the Donut touch my coffee and cream bowl. There was a donut on top, so he had to share with the family. The kids gave it two thumbs up!

    For the novelty of it all...4 stars but sadly in reality I can only give 3 stars because the product does not justify the price and it's not as advertised. We came in and ordered 3 milkshakes. I ordered an original banana split milkshake with a cheesecake. I was disappointed that they just replaced the banana in its entirety. I thought it would have had bananas in the actual shake but there was just half melted ice cream in the container and a piece of cheesecake that was so frozen I actually couldn't eat through it with my "shake". We all found our "shakes" to be just melted ice cream...no actually blended shake. Overall, I'm glad I got to try it but I doubt I would be back and I definitely wouldn't recommend to anyone who isn't just on vacation.

    Wife got a chocolate, brownie milkshake. Nothing crazy. The milkshake was delicious but nothing special. Lots of flavors to choose from. Priced high, I assume because of location and experience. Several kids working and half of them goofing off. I didn't like that. Wait until customers are serviced and gone. Lots to choose from. Plenty of seating if you include outside which makes for good atmosphere. We'll come again if we want ice cream in this area. We'll expect to pay. Can find cheaper milkshakes, just as good, in town

    I was disappointed in our first experience at The Yard. There were 3 young adults working behind the counter, and not one greeted us. They just looked at us until we were the ones to say hello and tell them what we wanted. If I'm spending $18 for a milkshake, I expect an experience and good customer service. The counters were messy, shelves were disorganized, bathroom dirty. Napkins were not stocked, tables and counters were dirty as well. This was at roughly 5:30pm. There needs to be employees here that make the most of their jobs; these made the experience almost miserable. The milkshake itself was the consistency of, well, milk. Really no texture other than the added ingredients. I received it on a paper plate and milk running down every side. Flavor was good and the milkshake was fun, but the mess and service really dampend the experience...

    So I will say that the bowls, milkshakes and Sundays are each a little bit pricey, however, they taste great, and I are unique novel experience that includes being a little work of art. Great little outing

    The prices are absolutely ridiculous. I paid almost $20 for a milkshake that wasn't even that good. Will never return here. It did have a pretty presentation or I would have given it a single star.

    We went because we heard about it from a friend, we really enjoyed this place. The inside was very nice and the employees were friendly. I got the cookies and milk milkshake, i really liked it. The stuff on top like the whip cream and chocolate chips and the cookie sandwich were good, the Cookie Crisp pieces were ok. The shake itself had a nice milky flavor. I don't think I would get this again, but I'm glad I tried it. If you're thinking about going to this place, I say check it out.

    Coming soon! April is the projected date!

    Love it! This was my first visit to the Huntsville location at last!!! My husband decided to split a milkshake because we've made the mistake of getting our own in the past. We got the mint chocolate chip one. It came with a huge brownie and of course the souvenir glass. We ate every crumb and drank every drop. Only downside is this location doesn't have a lace to wash out the glasses like other locations do. They also don't seem to clean the outside tables.

    Mediocre ice cream and the bowl was WAY too small. Not worth the price, you're better off buying ice cream and baked goods at the grocery store.

    Very pricy for some normal ice cream. They drown it in whipped cream. Very cool for looks and pictures but the taste isn't all that.

    Stopped in early to grab some breakfast and a few goodies before leaving town. Loved the hometown…read morefeel of the bakery. Staff members were very friendly and helpful. French Toast was excellent! Huge portion size. Cinnamon rolls that I brought were a hit as well. Only negative feedback was with the 12 count assorted homestyle cookies. Cookies were very crunchy, in my opinion a little over baked. Great experience, great area, with a very welcoming environment.

In the near 20 years since I was first introduced to…read moreEdgar's, the bakery has expanded across the Birmingham area and added multiple locations in Huntsville. I have not had a strawberry cake or cupcake in all my travels that can rival Edgar's strawberry cake. I challenge you to. The employees were nice and exhibited the Southern charm you'd expect. The dining tables are lined up against the windows and extend into the middle of the space. The rest of the interior space is occupied by various tables and stands of baked goods and treats. This visit was my first time ever having food. I ordered the bacon omelet with grits and toast. It was fine, nothing spectacular. It was good enough for me to eat there again but nothing that I'd say you have to go out and get. If you haven't tried the strawberry cake or strawberry cupcake, you HAVE TO- MUST- stop in and try one or both of them.

    I still like this place and have even gotten "real food" there…read more Pros: Staff are friendly! They nicely ground the bag of (overpriced) coffee I bought with zero complaints. The breakfast sandwiches and BLT are decently executed, but I'm REALLY not a fan of their bagels. Their bread (particularly the baguette) is fantastic, though. Note: it sells out quickly. You can still pick up your to-go order without having to deal with people. They now have a cute bookshop inside. They make their own cream cheese! Cons: If I'm paying $1.50 for an avocado add on, PLEASE don't let it be oxidized and brown and gross. This makes me sad. Parking is still a nightmare. See above about the bagels. I'm prepared for the hate I'm about to get, but I prefer Bruegger's...which is sad, as I'm sure they're produced and come in frozen. Prices have gone up, but that's to be expected. I would love, however, the option to not add on a side for less moolah. I don't want their straight from the bag chips, random baby carrots, or (somewhat icky) fruit. Depending on the timing, you may be able to get a seat. Or you may be fighting a soccer mom with 4 screaming toddlers just to pick up a to go order. Still a fan, but know what you're getting.

    This is just for the bagels. The good Parking is plentiful and easy in and out. The bagels were…read morepretty good you can tell they were prepared in the traditional boiled manner that results in the chewy outside texture. And they offer just enough Schmear as an extra and will toast it for you. It is a quaint place that offers a place to hang out for a while. The staff was cordial not overly friendly and seemed really focused on the tasks at hand. I would have liked to have had a better breakfast bagel sandwich selection as that is what I was looking for but most of the offerings were on toasted bread.
