HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! Staff knew nothing about products and if they have wheat or not. I asked them to clean the only working frozen slab. They looked annoyed. Won’t be coming back anytime soon!

The brothers that were working behind the counter were so lovely and accommodating. They made a point of telling my daughters their cookie dough was gluten free. They also checked if the cookie dough was dairy free. They cleaned the ice cream making surface and tools before making their choices. Lovely people and lovely experience.

We were so pleased with the safety here. They changed gloves and tools, used a clean and dedicated tile, and made sure everything was perfect.

The ice cream is good and they are very knowledgeable about celiac and careful about cross contamination. They used a separate cold table to roll the ice cream and have gluten free Oreos and gluten free cookie dough as mixin options.

Very poor experience. While they ultimately cleaned the surface, they initially forgot, and then acted very annoyed with us.
