After being poked and prodded, I brought my daughter to this Dairy Queen Grill & Chill in Roswell, NM twice within a span of about a week. The first time we went inside. Place was clean. Employees were friendly. One held the door for us after she cleaned a window. The second time I took the drive-thru as I was in hurry to finish some work later than evening. The service was great, patient, and funny. I like it when they hold the blizzard upside down before handing it to you even at the drive-thru window and the wind is blowing like crazy. My patient was happy first with her medium chocolate-dipped cone ($3.77) from 4.8.2026, then even more so with her Royal New York Cheesecake (cheesecake pieces with a strawberry center) blizzard ($4.74) on 4.16.2026. read more

I was in the mood for cheese curds and this was the only place that had them in town before 11 am. They're parmesan garlic chicken tenders were fantastic but I was overcharged from the price on the menu. Added a small sundae, I was happy. It really hit the spot. Service was fast and everyone was very friendly. Did the survey, got a free dilly bar too- was great on a really hot day a couple days later. I went back again today, got their $7 burger combo, it came out very fast, and was solid although the fries were not hot. I really like that you can have them not make your sundae when you get your food, so you can have it after taking your time without it being soup. The place has gotten a lot better than it was the first time I was here, I'm glad I came back. read more

Dairy Queen Grill & Chill - Fast Food Near Me - Roswell, New Mexico

Ordered a box of cherry dilly bars and a red velvet blizzard. In the drive thru the young lady confirmed the they had cherry dilly bars. At the drive-through window, I handed her a $20 bill, she handed me back the change and no dilly bars. I dropped the coin change not knowing it was on top of the bills, then proceeded to ask her where the change was and she says oh it dropped on the ground. I asked her where the dilly bars were and she said they didn't have any, even though they confirmed they had a box when I put an order in at the drive-through her attitude was ridiculously rude and when she gave me the money back for the Dilly bars, that did didn't exist she made sure the change had like 20 pennies in it to irritate me. I kindly handed it back to her and said you can have your pennies back this young lady needs to be fired. This happened today at about 3:30 PM the date is 2/3/2026. I wish I would've gotten your name. My first job was at Dairy Queen and if I would've acted like this, I know I would've been fired immediately. Good luck manager. read more

My wife and I ordered two simple things from their dessert menu. I got a large vanilla ice cream while she got the Reese's blizzard. My ice cream was more ice than cream and wasn't how Dairy Queen normally makes their vanilla cones. My wife's Reese's Mini Blizzard had two pieces of wrapper of some sort in the ice cream. This was very gross and she couldn't finish it. If you are looking for normal ice cream you should stay clear of this Dairy Queen. read more

The food was hot and fresh. The staff were nice and accommodating. Price was very reasonable. Bathroom very clean.

This Dairy Queen Grill & Chill is located on a corner, across from J & P Community Bank with outdoor seating and its own parking lot. My husband, our little girl dog and I decided to stop by here yesterday afternoon around 4:45 pm. We decided to go through the drive thru instead of going inside. There were 2 cars ahead of us in the drive thru and seemed to take longer than expected. The car in front of us was waiting 5-6 minutes to make an order since no one had asked the car what they wanted to order. Then after we had made our order, we had to wait another 10-12 minutes for us to reach the window to pay and pick up our order. The 2 cars ahead of us must have ordered a lot of items because of the wait. Anyways, we ended up ordering: Small Strawberry Sundae, $3.19 prior to tax- I decided to get a sundae since I wanted an ice cream in a cup to avoid any messes. I liked the vanilla ice cream and did like that there were slices of strawberries with the strawberry syrup. The portion really is perfect for 2 to share. Plain medium cone, $2.49 prior to tax- My husband is such a fan of ice cream cones (even though there has been many times where the ice cream has melted all over his hands, lol. But luckily this one did not). He enjoyed this and so did our little girl dog (as she just loves ice cream). ------------------------------ (Total= $6.12 after tax) Even though the hotel we are staying at is just down the street from here, we decided to park and eat our ice cream (it was funny to see a few cars after us had done the same). My sundae came with a long red spoon, but I wished the girl at the register had given us some napkins with our items since my husband needed one to wipe his mouth and so did our little girl (lol, isn't it funny that dogs always have a little something on their bottom lip and can't seem to reach it?). With the other reviews on this Yelp page, it seems that service is a common thing that other members are complaining about (that it is slow). I agree that service could be a bit better and a little faster. Overall, we enjoyed our ice cream and would probably come back, despite the slow service. read more

Yeah the restaurant in Roswell New Mexico on main Street claims to have the best burger in town or the best burrito in town and it was the driest burrito in town may want to speak to somebody about that You're going to advertise something you better make sure your facts are right read more

I brought 4 grandkids and their mom here for Blizzards. The service was outstanding. Five of the Blizzards were great, but one of the Oreo mint Blizzards was lacking mint. read more

waited 20 minutes and 3 people behind the counter never even acknowledged us. Trash place and trash service

Stopped in for something cold on a hot day. Took them over a half hour to get two "Blizzards" out to us. One other person in line. A young person sitting at the counter doing paperwork who never even acknowledged either of us in line. Someone finally came out after ten minutes of waiting (with no heads up from the individual at the counter) and then took the order. Took them about 35-40 minutes to call the number for us to walk to the counter (from the soda machine). Total disappointment read more

I have been going to Dairy Queen my entire life. The chicken finger basket is my weakness. The chicken strips and fries I got today are the freshest, hottest, and best tasting I've had there. ever. i'm almost never review fast food. Because it just is what it is. not this time. wow. Nice work y'all. read more

This is the SLOWEST "fast food" restaurant I've ever been to. I have driven through several times and they consistently take a very very long time with their service. Today, I paid for my food at 12:56 pm. It is now 1:11 pm and I'm still sitting at the drive thru window. I got my blizzard already, but it's rapidly melting. I only ordered a regular cheeseburger and fries. The WORST and SLOWEST location ever. I just thought it was a one off.... Then a two-off. But no. I constantly hope that "maybe this time will be different." NOPE read more

ohh how should I start.... the service here is horrible. They are sooo slow and took like a thousand hours to take our orders. Overall a bad experience don't come!!! but I'll probably be here next week cause it's Roswell and there is no other choices read more

Horrible customer service. The workers are lazy and don't take cash because they don't know how to count change.

I've had bad experiences at this one before, and probably wouldn't have come back if I hadn't been given a gift card. Also, I wanted a burger and dessert; and it just made sense to get it all here. The drive-through line was long. When I finally got to the window and placed my order, I was asked to move out of the line and somebody would deliver my food. I did, and waited some more. A kid came out and handed me the burger. I opened the wrapper and it had all kinds of crap I asked them NOT to put on it. By this time the kid was gone so I had to go inside. I showed my receipt at the counter and told the rep what happened. I repeated what I wanted on my burger. After a long wait, someone delivered a new burger. This time, they had given me the completely wrong sandwich. I took it back. Waited for another long period. The burger finally came back right, so I returned to my car. By this time, the ice cream in my sundae was completely melted. It was like a bowl of sweet milk. The last straw was when I realized they had only given me maybe half an ounce of chocolate syrup. I kept digging around through the white liquid trying to scrape some syrup off the side of the container, and the most I could find was a little smear on the bottom. I've had it with the Queen of Incompetence. What a waste of 15$+. read more

This store won't answer their phone. I have a problem and have tried for hours to call. They don't pick up and this is a problem that can only really be handled by phone with arrangements made on a problem. Very disappointing. read more

$21 for this?? wow! plus a small ice cream...this franchise is really giving DQ a bad name...and they never heard of the App or honor the Rewards program. I had to explain it to the gal at window and she called her GM said that she was not aware of the App and Rewards. ps the fries were limpy just like this location. read more

Dairy Queen Grill & Chill - Fast Food Near Me - Roswell, New Mexico

Don't bother with a walk-in order with this location, go to the one on 2nd. Took TWENTY minutes from the time they rang me up to get a medium Orange Julius, with only one customer in line ahead of me. They help drive-thru customers first. Ridiculous. read more

Dairy Queen is a wonderful treat every time. The food is great and the people are friendly. :) read more

We have been in line for over 30 minutes waiting for a blizzard and only two cars ahead of us. Seriously what do they do? This seems to be a consistent complaint get it figured it out people it's FAST food. read more

Kinda slow service for a Friday night. One poor girl working the window. She was polite but overworked. Had 4-5 people working for the inside service by one on the drive through doesn't really make sense. Food was good. read more

30 minutes for only 4 cars in front of us. Got to the window and observed two workers overfill a drink and one employee slurped the edge of the cup, put a lid on it, and sent it down the line to be served. During a pandemic. Obviously left without paying or getting served, and will never be back. read more

I'm giving 2 stars because I can't bear to give them 1. Probably should though. Went through the drive througforever to order. Finally got up to the window to pay. $11.48. I gave her $11.50. Never got the change. When I asked her (felt a little silly about $0.02) she looked so confused I gave up. She brought me my drink, which was correct. She gave me the food - chicken strips when I had ordered a bacon cheeseburger combo. Told her there was a mistake, she again looked super confused. Finally got the "correct" meal. Got home, discovered there was no cheese on my bacon cheeseburger. If I didn't live on the other side of town, and hadn't already spent 30 minutes there I probably would have gone back... Next time, I'll go somewhere else. Shame really, I do love the blizzards.... read more

A real good ice cream stop nationwide, for most. Not a fancy ice cream, but always adequate. We had a malt and a blizzard. Just right. Busy here today but they got us back out the door as best they could. Thanks folks. Well done. read more

We came to this location today for a late lunch. We ordered 2 chicken baskets a 4 piece and a 6 piece. The employee didn't give us a receipt. When I got home I saw that we only had a 4 piece chicken basket no 6. So I called and the employee on the phone told me it was no problem and to just come back. I told them on the phone that I wasn't given a receipt they said it wasn't a problem. When I get back and get to the window and tell them I called about the chicken basket the employee gets the manager who comes up to the window and asked me about 3 times if I was sure I was at the right Dairy Queen. (There's only 2 in town) I said yes and she then asked where my receipt was and when I told her I wasn't given one she replied with "Well we haven't made any chicken tenders in the last 30 minutes to an hour so I think you're at the wrong Dairy Queen" I said "No I'm sure I was at this one. She then says she'll get me the chicken tenders this time but next time I need a receipt. When she hands me the chicken tenders she says "Next time I'm gonna need the receipt cause you're not at the right Dairy Queen " so I said back "Thank you and maybe make sure your employees follow protocol and hand out receipts have a good day" as I start to drive off she yells at me"I got your license plate " I don't know what she meant by that or anything but I wasn't scared. I didn't do anything wrong. We get home and it's not even the 6 piece it's a 4. Don't go here go to the one on 2nd. read more

Slow service. Incompetent workers. Worst of all, both times we have come to this particular Dairy Queen, my family has gotten food poisoning. I will not ever subject my family to this place ever again. read more

Cashier was a complete moron I ordered a chicken basket medium french fry and a number four to go, I waited 20 minutes she brought my chicken basket out which was greasy I had to wait an additional 10 minutes and she brought my hamburger out which was supposed to be number four ended up being a number six and she never made the french fries I had to pull the receipt out to prove what I ordered even though I was only one in the restaurant, I also ordered a cake blizzard, and the girl drop the ice cream on the counter and was going to give it to me anyways, I seen her and made her make me a new one, I would give them negative stars if I could read more

We visited about 2 days ago at 9:20pm. Even though the drive through was stacked a tad, we went to dine in for ice cream only. We took about 5 min to decide our selections, but then we waited at the cash register AT LEAST 15 min. An employee looked at us staring at her, but continued to refill sprinkles, etc. Another employee ventured by as we stared her down and told us we'd be helped shortly as she went into the back. She came back toward us within 5 min, but answered and stayed on the phone. Another employee was sweeping. Therefore, as we were ready to leave, the poor, hardworking manager(?) was told we were still standing at the counter, so she switched off of the window to take our order. SHE was amazing and apologetic. This was a ridiculous waste of time though. I hope it gets better with the customer service. read more

If the restaurant bathroom is any indication of this places cleanliness then I would run NOT WALK to the exit. It smelled like 10 day old pee and the bathroom walls were the most disgusting thing ever, no soap and no paper towels? Really??? Nasty Dairy Queen! There is a whataburger and a Denny's in sights distance, I'm not scared to go! I don't like blizzards that much. Peace out foooooo! read more

This has been one of the worst we have ever been to. All of the staff is always rude, always. We, family of 5, ordered hot fudge Sunday, small dipped cone, 2 blizzard cones, and a mini blizzard. Waited almost 20 minutes to start seeing ice cream, the last mini blizzard finally was made after they made at least 3 other customers ice creams after our order. We had to ask for it and the manager had a terrible attitude about it. By the time my daughter received her blizzard the entire family was already done eating. Next morning, everyone that had a blizzard has food poisoning, they are nauseated and have diarrhea, terrible stomach cramps. We went to Dairy Queen around 830 that evening and I think they might have been trying to close early. They said what took so long was they had to wait for the ice cream to freeze. We will never return, the remodel looks great, same shitty people inside. Don't waste your time, it's worth the few extra bucks to go down the road to classics frozen custard. read more

How can a Dairy Queen get so bad? Who manages the businesses in this town...everywhere I go the worst atmosphere, service sucks, wrong or missing orders...the list goes on. Tell me how a squirt of squishy soft serve ice cream with a dab of hot fudge can earn the name "Hot fudge Sundae"? Seriously...I thought whipped cream, nuts and a cherry had to be involved in some way? You are no longer offering waffle cones? What...can the manager take a second and run over to Walmart and pick some up??? The staff has no clue how to prioritize customers...waiting for 15 or 20 minutes for an ice cream order is ridiculous when a car in front of you is ordering 10 burgers with fries and drinks...can't staff run the ice cream to your car or can't Mr. Burger pull off to the side to wait for his order? If you can't juggle this...then don't offer ice cream treats on the drive up menu! We are 100% done with your poor drive up...and we will try one more walk in trip and if it is just as bad...we are done with Dairy Queen. read more

I wonder if the owner Ever visits this restaurant?? Horrible service! I get it....having to deal with people all day...it's your job...it pays your bills! Get over it! I think this is a place that high schoolers should work, if your older than 25, get an education and get a better job. I ordered a cheeseburger, ketchup only; the employee asked me if I wanted cheese on it...first clue should've been I ordered a "Cheeseburger". Next I ordered a Reese's blizzard with Heath...then was asked if I want them mixed together...ummm "with" usually means together! After that, I think the manager finally could hear the dumb questions and finally completed my order. Then, I get to the window to pay and the girl has the nerve to give me dirty looks and stare me down. . . . I asked her if she was having a problem hearing me, and she said yes, our headphones aren't working good. I said, Ok, then I will call and make a complaint for you guys. And I told her she didn't need to give me a dirty look and be rude to me because it's not my fault you can't hear me. She closed the window and told another employee to get the manager before she kicks my ass. Well, I will be sure to let everyone know how wonderful the customer service is! I do see I'm not the only one that feels this way about this establishment. I can only imagine the people that didn't take the time to post about their experience here. I hope the owner reads this and does something about their employees. read more
