We ordered a small vanilla and a small chocolate cone, both dipped in chocolate. It came to over $5 which did surprise us (although I could have read the menu and I wouldn't have been too surprised ;)). The ice cream and chocolate were both delicious.

The quality was excellent, definitely a high-end product, rich and creamy. He gave us tastes of several flavors, and I was surprised at how delicious the natural flavor was - I usually skip that one at yogurt places. While the prices were considerably higher than what we pay in the United States, it was definitely a delicious experience.

Came across this establishment on Saturday as we were driving between Glace Bay and New Waterford. I saw the sign advertising Hires Root Beer and couldn't resist pulling in to see if they actually had any. They don't.

If you are looking for a place to grab a quick snack, this is definitely one to put on your list!

Best DQ there is. First of all, they have some of the tenderest chicken strips I've ever eaten…read more Secondly, they are not only willing to coat them (sauce and toss) in buffalo sauce which almost all DQ restaurants won't do (some do after a lengthly discussion which usually involves talking to the manager), BUT they actually offer it up front as an option before you even have to ask. Thirdly, they know how to properly make a blizzard. They don't overgrind the toppings so that you end up with a chocolatey ice cream mess. They mix it properly so you get vanilla ice cream with distinct toppings you can taste. Burgers are always cooked to perfection. They are the benchmark for which all other DQs should be measured against and eventually live up to. It's about passion, work ethic, and a desire to provide the customer with top notch products and service, and they nailed it on all fronts

She gave me time to read the menu, took my order, placed it correctly, and checked back with me. The atmosphere and love music was very nice and enjoyable. Those are the 2 pluses. The food is a different story. I ordered the 5 oz New York steak, which came with mashed potatoes and carrots. The cook on the steak was perfect and the taste was very good, but it had a lot of gristle. I'd say 1/4 of the steak was inedible. The potatoes were pretty tasteless, dry, and needed a lot of salt, but there were plenty of them. There were maybe 5-6 half carrots. They were also pretty flavorless. I'm not Canadian so maybe that is what Canadians prefer: grisly meal and tasteless vegetables.

By the time we left around 1, there were more customers, but it wasn't as busy as the prior year when I had come here for supper. Friendly, standard service. My side Caesar salad was quite good, standard, but flavorful, and a large size for a side. I thought by ordering two small dishes, I wouldn't be too full, but that plus the potato skins I got, I couldn't finish it all. The skins were not bad, with a fair bit of cheese, some bare skins at the side/bottom as often is the case, but no real complaints. My friend had the hot hamburger with fries & side of carrots, which he liked enough, but didn't find it memorable. For dessert he tried the mince meat pie and liked it a fair bit, as did I the coconut cream pie. (after being so full from my meal that I could barely breathe, i still had a sweet tooth.. lol). So this place is not on my top favorite list of Sydney restaurants, but I find it relaxing, homey and simple enough where I'd still come back anytime someone suggested.
