Golick&#x27;s Dairy Bar

First, I have only been here once and it was on Thanksgiving. Our reservation was at 12:15. We got…read moreour meal at 12:45 (without the side salad - that came after our meals). My friends' son got a cheeseburger - without cheese. I think our server misunderstood when he said, "I would like a plain cheeseburger". He didn't want tomato, lettuce, or onion, but he wanted a cheeseburger. The kids menu didn't include the same veggie sides - the kids wanted corn but that wasn't allowed? I got the baked stuffed haddock, a baked potato, and squash. My friends all got the turkey dinner. You didn't get butter with your baked potato unless you asked for it. (Maybe this was a way to save money and supplies?) One friend ordered the baked potato with butter and sour cream. Perhaps they didn't have sour cream and just didn't want to tell us. I found it interesting there were no dinner rolls. We ordered dessert around 1:10 pm. We waited; and waited. Come to find out - our dessert slips had been lost. My friends' daughter ordered chocolate ice cream with whipped cream and she got chocolate ice cream with chocolate sauce and whipped cream. My bill was correct. My friends - not so much. This review is challenging because I always spend the holiday with my family but I just moved back to the area and was graciously invited to lunch with my dear friends. They were so busy and I know we are all grateful to have had this option of eating out on this holiday. I felt bad for all those people waiting to be seated because they were so behind schedule. We were seated at 12:10 and left at 14:00. Maybe this was a test run for the owners of the restaurant. Practice makes perfect! Thank you for your kindness and meal. The seafood stuffing was very good. I enjoyed the grape nut custard pie, as well. I wish you all a happy holiday season. The staff were kind - just overwhelmed. We had a great time, though. The atmosphere was fun and relaxing for us.

That's why I haven't been back for years until I recently went to a group event there. The meals I saw in the group still looked like something from the frozen foods section of the grocery store. But I had opted for a Reuben sandwich with an upgrade of onion rings. Surprise, surprise!!! The reuben was excellent! Plenty of fresh tasting corned beef and overall very tasty. The onion ring upgrade from fries was $1 and the rings were likewise excellent. The reuben alone was $19. I can recommend the reuben at Strafford Farms, but nothing else. There are far better options available in the area.

Honestly, I would come back here again because the food was good and I love Mexican food so I think that just makes it extra for me. Plus the inside was so pretty.

This one is subpar at best and I've never had a really standout experience here, even once. Historically I've been served the wrong order, had very slow service, the restaurant has seemed dingy and dusty. On my most recent visit, we were seated at a booth next to a window. It was a cold day, and we could feel a constant draft coming through the window, to the point that we had to sit there in our jackets to comfortably eat our meal. The people I was with both ordered coffee and stated that it was lukewarm at best upon arrival at the table, and their food wasn't much hotter. My fiesta lime chicken was hot and tasted fine, but one out of three isn't a great track record. Prices are also outrageous- almost $80 for three meals (two of which weren't hot), two cups of coffee and a soda. Overall, I won't be in a rush to come back to this location and I'll save my very occasional Applebee's cravings for the Sanford restaurant instead.

SO GOOD. Undeniably the best hometown ice cream shop. They have all the classics, as well as some signature hits. Every week dad would always go out to make ice cream runs for the whole family. It's always hard to decide what I want because there are so many good flavors, as well as deserts in general. I could go for a milkshake, a slushie, a sundae, or even just a classic ice cream. Anyway you get it, it's delcious read more

In the past it has been a bit of a unicorn flavor here, but this summer I've found it on my past 3 visits! My second choice is the Peanut Butter Fantasy. Prices seem to be on par for premium ice cream. They do accept credit cards as well. There are a few tables inside the shop if you care to sit and enjoy your ice cream inside.

Both were delicious! Inside was a bit old fashioned and dark though so I appreciate the few outdoor seats that they have - Especially since my ice cream started dripping. Location wise, it was a bit busy in Ceres street that day especially since it's close to Moran Towing, restaurants and shops, etc so sometimes it could get a bit crowded and well..not the cleanest looking. Not their fault of course.

I give them credit for putting the soft serve on a sugar cone because most places don't- they usually put it in a bowl with a sugar cone on top!! However when we asked if their chocolate sprinkles were the candy version or real shaved chocolate, she looked at us like we were crazy and said with an attitude, "I have no idea what you're talking about". Already not a fan after that. And also she barely put any sprinkles on it. My mom got a small blackberry and coffee twist which was superrr yummy, especially the coffee flavor. My dad got 3 scoops of the Maine black bear, that was also very good. We also got 3 pup cups which was $9- WAYYY too much in my opinion. You have to specify what you want too- she was going to give us frozen ones that they make but we just wanted the regular vanilla soft serve.
