Having once worked for a cheap bastard who intentionally trained his employees to do the same thing, I could spot this a mile away.

I…read morewalked into the shop and all three of the staff were goofing off and did not greet me (I had to get their attention). I got a two scoop ice cream in a cup with 1 topping, and was charged 8$. A price that, given the location and the extra topping, altogether isn't too egregious and something maybe as a footnote to a usually curt review. Unfortunately, the "two scoop" ice cream portion was insultingly small. I even asked if it was two scoops to be sure, and all three of the staff burst out in laughter at either something one had said or the pathetic amount of ice cream I had been given (who knows). The two scoops didn't even breech the top of the lid of the cup. I could have gotten more ice cream, that tasted the same, for less at somewhere like Dairy Queen. The only reason it has 2 stars instead of 1 is because the small amount of ice cream I did receive was decent.

The attendant was ready to hand out nearly endless samples of the homemade flavors. The selection of ice creams and gelatos was diverse. They were even willing to let you split a single scoop across two flavors. We had the banana pudding, fudge brownie, salted caramel, chocolate, and cookie dough. All were tasty. My wife wishes they would have had a peanut butter chocolate flavor, which is our only critique.

The eyes popped off of one of them and the second one, the coke version was visibly messed up and damaged.

I had tried another highly rated coffee shop in Oak Island the day before and was honestly confused by the reviews. The coffee tasted watered down and the matcha was a hard no for me. Seaside Mermaid completely redeemed the Oak Island coffee situation. They also have a great selection of sugar-free syrups, which I really appreciated, and the donuts were delicious! (Mermaid donuts! How fun) Plus, there's taffy, fudge, ice cream, desserts, and an adorable boutique attached. Basically, you go in for coffee and suddenly you're browsing gifts with a donut in your hand. Highly recommend stopping here if you're in Oak Island! I gave a 5 for friendly service, cleanliness, and good selection. Ciao for now

Order at the window, get a buzzer, it goes off and you pick up your order. There are a few covered picnic tables where you can eat, or you can go somewhere else to enjoy. We got an order of loaded tots and the buffalo cauliflower. The tots were DEFINITELY loaded. So much potato cheesy goodness. There was a ton of ground beef on top as well, however, the meat had very little in the way of seasoning. It was almost like a chopped up hamburger. Something to make it more like taco meat or give it some spice would have been welcome. The buffalo cauliflower on the other hand was perfect. Just the right amount of breading and zing from the buffalo sauce, tender cauliflower inside. Could not have been better. Overall, very pleased with this group snack. We didn't get any tacos, next time we will to give a more thorough review but this definitely satisfied our snacky cravings!
