    This is a fun little spot right in the heart of Vicksburg, Michigan. They carry two brands of ice cream. Plainwell ice cream which is pretty much the undisputed champ in these parts and Ashby's ice cream which offers a few variations such as superman and fat free. The hot dogs are by Nathan's and there are also a variety of other choices such as burgers or a chicken salad wrap. What I truly like about this place is not just that they serve "happy food" but how they put it all together. The inside seating reflects someone's little dream. Rather than throw a couple of tables and chairs into a room this place reflects someone's passion. You'll see and feel what I mean when you check it out. This business is owned and run by family members who always have a smile and something nice to say. They close for a few months starting around November like most other ice cream shops. Word is they'll soon have ice cream cakes. Makes it almost worth having another birthday and definitely worth celebrating someone else's! I couldn't give less than 5 stars to a place this cool.

    They have changed locations, just down the street! Lots of upgrades, more seating both inside and outside. Beautiful view overlooking a pond. They have so many choices for ice cream, different ones each time we come in. They also serve speciality cheesecakes, a personal favorite! They do have a menu of food too, we usually just come for dessert though.

    Good ice cream, food, and friendly staff. Try the pasty. These trolls make them the best south of da bridge.

    Take out only? Cheese Ravioli! Very good!…read moreThe pizza looks excellent? Service really stood out?

    I have long wanted to try this location, and especially the Reuben grinder (OMG). So, we meandered…read moredown Shaver on a gorgeous fall day. The parking lot (watch for the big pothole!) faces a beautifully gladed small woods. I was looking forward to eating outside in this little slice of nature. There are a few tables and chairs outside the building, located under the roof, which is helpful. The menu is either taped to the counter or as a sheet you can look at (see photo). There are a TON of choices! The staff was so kind and funny. We enjoyed talking with her. I got the Reuben and my husband got the House Specialty: Italian. These are hot subs, so you go sit and wait for them to come hot! I didn't love the music inside - seemed loud and there was also a tv going. I went to sit outside and there is also music PIPED OUTSIDE. I have one question: WHY?!!! When our sandwiches were ready, we went and sat in the car, windows rolled up to avoid the noise. We wanted them hot, or else we'd have driven a bit away to eat in peace. The grinders were hot, excellent bread, nice toppings. The meat was pretty stingy, imho. My Rueben had three thin slices of corned beef, a sprinkling of sauerkraut, a bit of melted swiss (yum), and plenty (thank you!) of thousand island dressing. I expected more meat and definitely more sauerkraut. The taste was delicious. I love that they come in a cardboard box - keeps the bread crispy and hot. If you must eat in your car, the box also unfolds into a sort of impromptu tray for your lap. We won't be returning to this location, because of what you actually get on your grinders, and the noise in the dining room and outside. Other locations are preferred for us for these reasons.
