    Sundae and tea
    James G.

    I just finished playing golf at white plains and was heading home to rock hill and saw the daily special. Bacon cheeseburger, side, tea, and desert for 8.99 I thought it was a prank. It was great and cute and old school. No complaints will stop by every time I play golf here from now on.

    Cute little place with some amazing ice cream! We have been meaning to pop in for a while now, and…read moreit is definitely our loss for waiting for so long! There is plenty of parking in the plaza and tables both inside and out where you can enjoy your treat! We tried the cinnamon toast crunch and butterfinger, and both were exactly what you would expect! They have quite a few flavors to pick from, so I will definitely need to go check out some of the others. Prices are very reasonable with a small at $4, medium at $6 or a pint at $10. They also have a loyalty card and punch a hole for every order. Once you fill the card, you get to spin the wheel and win a prize, anything from free ice cream, t-shirt, hat, or even a stuffed puppy (Hank). Unfortunately, Hank was not there today, but just another reason to go back! The employees behind the counter were friendly and were cleaning and picking up between customers,keeping the place tidy. It's definitely a place to go and check out!

    We went to Hanks Carolina Creamery (address is: 103 G Wilkes Dr. Monroe, North Carolina) today and…read morei have got to give him props! My sons wanted to go to SweetFrog but i told them lets go try some real ice cream. I got the coffee caramel, my daughter got cookie dough (she said its REAL cookie dough and was delicious), my oldest son got cookies & cream (fun fact, it takes 44 Oreos to make a batch), my youngest son got vanilla (he took a bite and told him wow you did a good job, it's delicious!). Before we left my youngest told him "you do a really good job with your ice creams, thank you"! There is also a freezer of pints (cash only) if you want to bring some home to enjoy! If you love ice cream and like to support local like my family does, please stop in to Hanks Carolina Creamery! Check out his merch too while youre there!

    Very excellent and amazing array of homemade flavors. Also very cleaver names for many of these…read moreunique treats. Only outdoor seating at metal tables, most without umbrellas. Wear hats if super hot and sunny and consider eating in your car if windy. You line up at the order window and you will need to read their menus before you can really order. There are cones and dishes, pints and quarts, sundaes, hurricanes, shakes, and pops (ice cream on a stick). Waffle cones and bowls. Will blow your decision-making brain. The have over 100 flavors but only have out at any given time about 48 of them. Wife and I love the 4 scoop sampler. Order four different flavors each of them are in a slightly smaller size of dipper/scooper. A great way to dive into those many flavors. I could not find prices, but my recent receipt for a small dish was $4.50. Their ice creams are wonderful. You need to check this place out. Good, old-fashioned delicious ice creams.

    We used to love this place. Service has become so inconsistent and we won't be back anymore:…read more - more times than not a large is the same as a small - clearly lazy workers - flavors with candy or brownie are either overloaded or too sparse - online ordering is not updated with current flavors nor hours - workers avoid making eye contact when you arrive at window for a pickup order and you have to practically flag them down and knock on the window - refused to help my husband when he called to place a pickup order while he was at work and had no access to the online ordering app

    How we know The Local Scoop was from the Matthews downtown area one, first time we tried right the…read moreway We become addicted to their ice cream what ever flavor never disappoint us. I love coffee, omg please try out their coffee flavor. We already tried almost all their flavor ice cream including the special flavor for holidays. We came cross country from West coast to East coast for The Local Scoop, yep because we never find The Best homemade ice cream at the West Cost like The Local Scoop!!! Like, even we took our family and friends from around the world to come try their ice cream. I have sister from China she doesn't like sweet, when I told her that we will take her to try out an ice cream. She kind of doubt to go. But after she tried she was super happy and said: wow I want another one We took her back right the way the next day and she tried two flavor right the way at that time (look not a big fans of sweet person able to enjoy ) If you never try, please give it a try and we guarantee will not disappoint you at all. You can come enjoy the cute downtown Matthews and get The Local Scoop ice cream or you can go to enjoy the Ballantyne with The Local Scoop ice cream too since they have it in both locations. All the workers or servers are very friendly, young and nice. The owner has integrity and easy going. Note: love it "we proud to support local businesses."

    Fooled by the ratings. I nearby and chose this spot for a quick ice cream drop it. It was busy…read more I didn't really see a flavor like cookies n cream but was suggested Cookie Monster. At first taste, I was turnt off. Barely any taste and felt chalky. I went jn a store right after tasting it. Pricey. I could care less if it melted or not. Meh...
