    Brookie

    My family has gone to Bruster's for years, but after my last visit, I won't be returning. I ordered Cookie Craze and Brookie but was mistakenly served ice cream with peanut butter sauce -- I have a severe peanut allergy. After one bite, my throat began to close which led to a trip to the ER. What's most disappointing is how the situation was handled by the adults that run this business. I had to follow up repeatedly and finally got a response a month later when I reached out to corporate. I was told to file a claim that was later denied. Bruster's was not willing to help me out other than giving me a refund after I had to ask!! After seeing other reviews about incorrect orders and allergy mix-ups, I realize this wasn't an isolated case. Ownership does not care fix this issues when they arise. If you have allergies I highly recommend finding a different ice cream spot!!

    Bruster's ice cream shop is a longstanding favorite of mine. With homemade ice cream and a wide variety of flavors, it never disappoints. The staff is friendly, providing excellent service with quick turnaround times. Without a doubt, one of the best local ice cream shops I've ever been to.

    The ice cream is very good and my favorite flavor is black raspberry. When they make it they send me a text!

    I have been here sooo many times before. This place used to be my favorite ice cream spot but lately I feel like the ice cream quality has decreased. I had a strawberry cheesecake ice cream that tasted straight like sugar. Even tho it has strawberry pieces in it. My favorite is their strawberry shortcake dessert but other than that I feel pretty disappointed with their other options. Their staff is really nice and besides my latest bad experience I will still go back at some point to give them another chance. Hopefully I will change my mind.

    On Saturday morning I started calling Bruster's Real Ice Cream of Tega Cay from their website, 803-548-4070, and each time I received a recording that said, "the number you are calling is busy, please try again later". I continued to call throughout the day and got the same recording. As their website indicated they were open until 9pm, I attempted to reach them through email so that I could possibly order an #Ice #Cream #Cake within their 48 Hour Policy (Needed by Monday by 5, I was aware of the policy, but due to phone issues, thought they might want my business). I received ZERO response and opted to go to PW'S ICE CREAM at 9pm Saturday night! What a God send!! The owner was so kind, so gracious and totally happy to take my order, customize it to my specs, and THANKED ME FOR THE OPPORTUNITY!! We picked up our Cake for a family birthday celebration on Monday evening and it was a total hit!! This morning, I received a phone call from the Bruster's Manager in Tega Cay, regarding the email I sent on Saturday. She indicated "I must have been calling the wrong number because they had no phone issues". I told her I was calling "from" her website. She then told me that "they were very busy that day"..., or, "I must have been calling the wrong Bruster's". She then said "well, if you had reached us our 48 hour policy would have still applied", to which I responded, "had you answered your phone, I would have been within your policy window earlier in the day". Lastly, she said "well I don't know what to tell you, the problem wasn't on our end" to which I responded, "well I don't know what to tell you other than I called PW's in Rock Hill at 9pm, they took my order with great kindness, thanked me, and I will be using them for ALL MY FUTURE BUSINESS!! Bye now!! PSA: If you want my money, learn how to be a decent human being and how to run your business. Oh, and when did America put so many rules and regulations on buying a dang Ice Cream Cake... Thank you PW's Ice Cream and Happy Birthday Kari Newton and Paige Newton!! We love you!!

    Bottom flavor rocky road; top flavor cotton candy with pop rocks, in a small cup :)

    They always provide great service. It gets busy sometimes but they handle it well. We don't go to any other ice cream place.

    The food was great, very tasty. We had the chicken strips, fries and I ordered the potato salad…read morewith my chicken. I loved the potato salad... it was the Best... wish I lived closer. Definitely will go back. The others with me, loved their food... we thought this place was a great find. Service, Ambiance Great. It is right across from a beautiful park also.

    I've been wanting to check out this cute location since it opened and I finally was in the area…read morearound lunch time to give them a try. I was a bit early for lunch arriving around 11:30 am. There was only two people in this very cute restaurant. Lots of table and chairs inside and outside for seating. I was a bit overwhelmed trying to take everything in. They have a counter top where you can see them cutting actual chicken and potatoes for the fries and placing them into what appears to be high pressure deep fryers. This place has been set up to make you the best pieces of chicken you can get. I ordered The Beaut (minus the mayo) a large chicken breast covered in a crispy batter and perfectly deep fried! There was a good amount of pickles with the sandwich, like 4 or 5 which really covered the entire sandwich so you always got a bit of them. The bun was not my favorite. I'm not sure how to describe it. A little smushed is the best way I guess. I also ordered a 6 piece bites package. These things were full on huge chunks of chicken they seasoned and deep fried. I don't normally like to take pictures of food partially eaten but I had to show what one of the bites looked like after taking a bite. They were large, hot and cooked to perfection. I did try some of their BBQ sauce. Not a big fan but it wasn't bad. I also got an order of the skin on hand cut fries! OMG they were so good! They gave me a large bag of hot fries that just totally completed this meal! And I'm talking they should have come with a warning they were so hot! Loved it! As I was waiting for my order to be bagged I notice the large cookies and the glazed hand pies they had on the counter. This isn't like other major food chains so the price is a little higher but you are getting quality food. If you are looking for some good fried chicken and hot fries then I highly recommend this place!

There aren't many cold stones in the area and this may be one of the closest to me.

    This Cold Stone location in Fort Mill is much better than the Rivergate location in Steele Creek…read more I'm a little closer to the Rivergate location, but this one is worth it coming the little extra way. Each time I've ordered, whether online or in person has been a great experience. One time recently, I tried ordering online, and it would not let me use my coupon - kept saying I needed to add valid items to my cart. I would add different items, and still nothing would work. I went inside and explained the situation. They tried to do the order in the system first before making my order to see if it would work. They had no issues applying the coupon that was on my account to what I wanted to order. Allison J. was on the receipt that time, which appears to be a manager based on other reviews. She is excellent - friendly and helpful! I do hope they bring back the Don't lay a finger on my Butterfinger creation because it was very good - peanut butter ice cream with Butterfingers, caramel, and chocolate. Yum!
