It seems to be the people's choice in the Lakeland area. Look no further than the line, sometimes trailing to the parking lot on summer evenings. Bruster's seems to be as popular with the Little League crowd as no homework on Fridays. The flavors may veer a bit to the saccharine, at least for the adult palate. And some flavors in particular taste more chemical/artificial than natural and homemade (looking at you Raspberry Chocolate). But if you stick with the basics (chocolate, cookies and cream, etc) Bruster's will satisfy at any age.

But I do have to say, the workers at this Culver's are some of the sweetest and most pleasant I've experienced! As for the food, it's same old same old from any location. Once in a while a butter burger sounds good from here, and of course their cheese curds are well known. My favorite is probably their custards, it's a nice change up in a dessert that's still different enough from ice cream but just as delightful. This location is very new so it's pretty spic and span, super clean and tidy.

The malt I got was great. Definitely recommend for fast food.

We placed our order, as you can see all of them were beyond disappointing in portions. The orange creamsicle barely had vanilla soft serve.... My coconut and cherry combo barely had cherry and the vanilla with sprinkles was jazzed a little with sprinkles. The person making them didn't seem like he wanted to be there. It was very slow we were the only customers at this location.. maybe he was having an off day? Who knows. Either way I know other locations give you a nice amount of both flavors. Wont return to this location.

But those are all great things for a business on opening weekend! We were really happy to see a crowd supporting a new shop! We went again yesterday, and while the experience was a bit different than the first time (zero crowd, no wait, our choice of seating) , it was still just as awesome. These treats are super tasty and they are piled high! We have, however, learned that the small size works best for each of us because these things are FULL. Yesterday's choices were the PB&J the Orange Mango Tango, and a simple chocolate vanilla swirl soft serve. Altogether, it was somewhere between $15-20. It's a nice change of pace from regular ice cream, and they have a ton of different flavors. Definitely a fun little spot!

But a good heads up to know is they take about 20 minutes to make because they have to cook at a really low heat. So if you go there to have those make sure you're not needing to be somewhere right after- we didn't have time to wait so I will be back for those for sure. They had so many options that sounded good but ended up trying a jelly pudding that was in the shape of a capybara. They have other animal puddings too like a duck and cat. It was so cute and tasted as delicious as it looked adorable. The peach boba tea we had was great too. It was sweet and a little sour and packed with flavor. The tapioca pearls were cooked and soft like they should be. I also loved the vibe in here. It's crazy how different the inside looks from its last tenant that was Twisted Sugar, a cookie place. It's so color and so much more inviting inside now, and a good amount of seating even for being a small place.
