My son had the Michigan Pot Hole milkshake topped with marshmallow cream. Yum!!!!~~ The lady that waited on us and prepared our tasty treats was super nice and wished me a happy birthday with conversation of celebrations.

Did you know you can get a vanilla malted milk shake made two different ways? They did that for us…read moreat The Ice Cream Stop. I like soft serve, my wife wanted hand scooped, so the nice girl at the drive-through made both for us! You crazy kids probably don't even know what a malted is, but I digress... Not surprisingly, I preferred the thick creaminess of the one made with soft serve. And my wife preferred the one made from hand scooped ice cream, which was a bit milkier in texture, but oh so refreshing. They added just the right amount of malted milk and both shakes were delicious. This is a classic ice cream shop. Excellent outdoor seating, very cute inside. And many local young folk working hard. Afterwards, I went home and took a contented nap.

Will definitely be back if/when we drive through the area again.

The Hershey's ice cream is great, the employees are friendly, and the prices are very reasonable compared to most ice cream shops we visit. My wife and I have gotten a cone there several times and never had a bad experience.

Fries (pronounced 'freeze') is a cool little town, too. Enjoy!

One of the best ice creams I've ever had. I ordered a two scoop cup and should have gone with my…read morefirst thought of only one scoop because it was a LOT of ice cream. My wife, being more sensible ordered a one scoop waffle cone and still it was a lot of ice cream. The ice cream was extremely creamy and for some reason it was slow to melt. It appears to have little over run (air) which in my opinion, contributes to it's texture and creamy consistency. My butter pecan had pieces of pecan along with the buttery flavor that you would expect. My wife had deer tracks with big chunks of excellent chocolate. Many more items on the menu so I recommend you check it out!

It wasn't super busy when we came in but the two young ladies behind the counter were definitely eager to get us in and out. Not the warmest or most welcoming of customer service. They do have a nice selection of flavors to choose from though and they have a coffee menu as well. Love that's it's family owned. Be prepared for no seating available indoor or outdoor but it's a nice area that's walkable with other stuff to do.

So maybe it was just an off day but customer service wasn't very warm or friendly. My mom and I…read morecame here today to grab some coffees and they were good. I got a cinnamon bun latte and my mom ordered a lavender coffee. Both were good. Wasn't super pricey, we got two cups that were medium sized for $12.00, not bad for a touristy area. The place was clean and decorated cute, the coffee was good and pretty affordable, but 3 stars because both staff members were not very friendly and almost seemed like we were bothering them by coming in. Again, hopefully it was just an off day, but customer service definitely goes a long way, especially for people visiting out of town. I do recommend stopping by here to try coffee, lots of variety in their menu with flavors, and all the different milk options you can think of. :)
