Excellent service! some of the custard flavors are gluten free (i got vanilla and chocolate twist) and I specified to the woman working there that the cones may have touched the soft serve dispenser so she washed her hands and then spent a few minutes cleaning the machine for me and I felt very safe. great job and understanding of celiac needs

Most if not all custards are gluten free based on ingredients. Team does a great job of not putting the regular cones all the way up on the ice cream dispensers, limiting cross contamination. Establishment is always clean and tidy

I had the vanilla and chocolate custard twist. If I’m being honest, it was just ok. I expected more. I think the frosty’s at Wendy’s are better. I would not come back based on this item. My daughter got pina colada Italian ice and it was very artificial tasting.

Chose to grab a cool snack while on vacation in Galveston. I have Celiac so I did a lot of research beforehand and let the employee know. I had a small Salted caramel sunday with chocolate sauce, chocolate chips , whipped cream and cherry.  They were careful with my order and adding toppings to ensure no cross contamination.

Custard was very sweet and delicious! I could only eat about 3/4s because it was a bit heavy and too sweet after a while. I'd probably choose a vanilla custard next time with toppings to avoid the overly sweetness, but that's just a personal preference. It was great service and very good!

Knowledgeable staff, lots of gluten free and sugar free, dairy free options. So far the only place I have been in the area that actually has not made me or my Kids sick. They even offer gluten free cones and waffle cones. Very delicious and yummy! This is the only ice cream place I will go in the area. Highly recommend
