    This is where you have to line up. Everywhere else is considered their "porch".

    Super rude!!!!!! We were trying to read the menu, standing on the sidewalk while still social distancing as ALL the picnic tables on the side were over crowded and we were rudely shouted at to form the line around the corner (see pic) where there is ZERO information what they have for sale. We are regular visitors to GTB and will never return here. I should mention the ice cream was sloppily put together and was all over our hands when handed to us in their cups. No napkins were offered. None around to be seen. We had to ask for some.

    Nice little place with lots of options. My wife picked chocolate waffle cone. I decided on an old classic the chocolate dipped cone. Both were smalls but they were Huge!!!

    Classic walk up and order!

    Maybe I just hit this local spot on a good day, but I had a great experience! Me and my best friend had been out adventuring in LBL when on our way home she said we HAD to stop at this little ice cream place if they were open. They were! So we stopped. I ordered a cheeseburger and fried pickles. I was given a tab with my number on it, so when my food came up they could holler my number. Simple. It was around 10 minutes after ordering, my food was up. The girl asked if I wanted any sauce for my fried pickles, she gave me a chipotle sauce and ranch for me to try. They were both delicious. The chipotle seemed more like a spicy horseradish sauce than chipotle, but good nonetheless. Y'all, the food was good. I had to wait a minute to try my pickles because they were made FRESH- but were some of the best I've had. A lot of fried pickles have that gross mushy layer because they haven't been fried long enough, but these were crispy all the way to the pickle. My burger was fresh and very good! Exactly what I was expecting. Definitely your classic local walk-up burger and ice cream joint. I also ordered a small twisted cone and it was definitely not small but worth it. The girls were nice to me, they thanked me, told me to have a good day. They thanked me when I tipped them. They weren't overly friendly, but not rude at all. It was overall a good experience and I'll be back throughout the summer.

    Typical summer night!

    I can't really give this ice cream place a great review. It doesn't have great ice cream. However, when it's hot, and you're not having dessert at Patti's, this is what you need. It's basic soft serve with some fixings. The staff is pretty quick (considering the traffic they get), and the cones are fresh. Nothing spectacular, but completely fits the bill.

    Weather was perfect and we ventured out while staying at Green Turtle Bay. We arrived at Craig's Dairy Cream before the rush began. Cute place to order at the window, I must admit the service was fast- so fast I hardly had time to look at the menu. The customer service could use some help, although we did enjoy our ice cream while sitting at the side at a picnic table.

    Small and burned burgers

    We ordered 8 burgers. Of those 8, 4 were correct. They were all small and burned. This is our 3rd and last time being disappointed. We used to love Craig's. It has slowly gone downhill. Tried to call and speak to someone in charge and was hung up on. Waited 45 minutes for food.

    Ice Cream was melted and garbage. It tasted like raw cookie dough. Without a doubt, the worst Ice cream I have ever had.

    Excellent burgers and fries. Pretty good ice cream. The rest is your standard frozen chicken etc. Takes a bit but it's worth the wait.

    I love kitschy , roadside attraction type places and this absolutely fit that. We made reservations…read moreto be on the safe side. We got there a bit early so that we could wander around the shops. They do have moonshine tasting, which was fun. I liked hearing about Calvin and Mr. Bill. I could easily see how people could spend a whole day here: For dinner, we were in a room with butterflies and flowers. When you looked around, it's almost as if you didn't know where to focus your attention. I ordered a drink and the burger ($2 upcharge after 4pm). The burger was ok but the fries were delicious. Our server, Jordan, kept our table laughing every time he came by. Worth checking out if in the area but definitely check out the menu before so you don't get sticker shock on some of the prices.

    Like Cracker Barrel on crack…read more Very expensive, especially with all of the extras added...if I want a sandwich after 4 pm I pay an extra $2 for the privilege. 5% alcohol upcharge. Food was good, but not enough for the cost. My bill for one was $68 for one alcoholic beverage, a soda, the app for the table, a sandwich and chips, and a piece of pie. Kitschy as hell, which I enjoy. Lots of shops to wander while you wait. Looks like Alice in Wonderland threw up. The staff is the best part. Our server, Jordan, was personable and funny and didn't let any extra costs go by without notifying us. I appreciate that. Everyone was great, and willingly wearing uniforms that seemed uncomfortable at best. But it's part of the theme. Standouts: flower pot bread and strawberry butter, moonshine tastings, and sawdust pie. Go once just to experience it if you're nearby.

    This is the cutest little bakery! We bought bake goods here twice during our vacation down in…read moreGrand Rivers. The first visit we bought a dozen fresh rolls that were still hot! We also bought two muffins. I had the key lime muffin and it was so moist, the filling was not overly sweet or tart, and it was just flat out amazing. The rolls made great little sandwiches and then used with our dinner of pull apart beef. The next day we bought cinnamon rolls, muffins and a loaf of bread. The loaf of bread was probably one of the best breads I have ever had! The muffins and cinnamon rolls were also enjoyed by everyone in our group. If you warm up the cinnamon roll or muffins for like 15 seconds, it tastes like they have just come out of the oven. I am a bit sad that we had to leave and this bakery is not right by my house. I wish this review could include taste and smell. My advice is get there right when they open if you want the bread. We went on Saturday at 8:30 and it was one of the last loafs. This bakery also serves meals such as a bison burger, but we did not try any of these items.

    Ok, don't judge us for ordering salads at a BBQ place. Trying to be healthy and eat BBQ is delicate…read moredance, haha. We felt so welcome here. I wish I had gotten our servers name. She recommended the brisket tacos, which my hubby and i both loved. She also recommended the BBQ ranch dressing that we thought was pretty darn great. My kiddos catfish was a little under cooked. Being that I dont cook catfish, we weren't sure if it was ok to eat. A gentleman came out and looked at it and offered to cook another piece (she'd already eaten one piece). I feel like they handled that very well. All told, we enjoyed our food, loved our server, and we will be back next time we are in the area. Highly recommend!

    A very nice BBQ "Joint!"…read more Lots of parking, lots of options on the menu, tables inside and out, a nice selection of sauces, and very friendly staff. The restaurant is very clean and has several televisions. Katie did a great job helping me navigate the menu and keeping my Diet Coke filled. I ordered the Brisket Plate with Baked Beans, Cole Slaw, Cheese Grits, and Cornbread. The Brisket was very moist and tender. It had a mild flavor, but the Hot BBQ Sauce helped. All 3 sides were tasty and I'm glad I ordered them. The Corn Bread had a nice texture and flavor, but the piece was a bit small and I would have liked some honey or butter with it. Prices here are fair and the food is good. I'm glad I stopped for lunch.
