The place said that they opened at 12 o'clock and we saw two members of the staff walking in and out repeatedly without acknowledging us or letting us know that they would not be opening at 12. We sat outside for 30 minutes or so, without being acknowledged once; and the lady was very awkwardly just looking at us. The door was unlocked, but the place was completely closed with the lights off and nobody seemed welcoming or friendly. I will say the ice cream here is solid, but the customer service is horrible.

A family owned, old school ice cream parlor that brings you back in time about 50 years. I can…read moreappreciate a good homage to what once was. I am all for new trendy vibey establishments but there's something so special about that old school classic vibe. There is so much attention to detail when the branding was designed that mustn't be over looked. The owners are also outstanding humans and constantly giving back to the community and supporting Local fundraisers. The staffing is usually on the younger side but I can appreciate a young teenager that wants to get out there and work in the community. Social interaction is super important in one's growth and you get to experience that first hand the more often you visit. I have always had great experiences, and I believe the owners are doing things right when they are interviewing and finding goo staffing. You can tell Mel has a passion for baking/culinary/sweets and provides an absolute top notch experience. From sundaes to ice cream flights and even big kahuna challenges, there is literally something for everybody. The menu is forever changing with seasons and customer input :) I tend to bring my young boys in for a small treat on the summer weekends when we're in downtown Westerly. We purposely plan on getting there at opening which is noontime. At that time of day they are much slower than later on into the evening. This allows my picky/indecisive boys to try a few flavors before committing to something. They can also perouse all the candy/ sweet treats, which they will inevitably convince me to get something to take home with them. I highly recommend stopping in for an after dinner sundae after a nice dinner at one of the other local dining establishments Cheers *****Spoiler alert. I cannot wait to see the finished product of the step side ice cream/sweet treat truck, coming to a town near you***

The person that was behind the counter was completely immersed in the latin song that was on the radio. The decor has 1950's decorations but no 1950's music. She was unkept herself. The shake, not good at all, bland and did not ask if I wanted whipped cream, the service crappy. Need to update the facility and get help that wants to be there.

I didn't order anything, nothing on the menu looked like what I wanted... but overall the place looks like a nice shack so it's appropriate for where it's position.

A rainy day calls for going out for breakfast, and in this case, it was Nana's. We were staying at…read morean Airbnb nearby and our host recommended this place, so we decided to try it out. The GPS led us to a parking lot, with a good number of spots and Nana's was 20 steps away. They do have a patio with a few tables but because it was raining, we went straight inside. When we arrived, there were only a couple parties seated, but by the time we were mid-way through our meal / leaving, the place was packed. Our server helped us with understanding some of the items on the menu and also warned us about some of the iteme they didn't have, like pepperoni, mushrooms, and donuts. With that in mind, we ordered risotto balls to start and the pesto egg and cheese sandwich (baked fresh eggs, pesto, cheddar cheese, lemon aioli, brioche roll) and Dijon and lemon chicken salad sandwich (slow roasted chicken thighs, lemon aioli, herbs, local greens, pickles, and side of fries) for the main meals. The Yaupon iced tea caught our attention since it has indigenous tea with rotating fruit fusion so we ordered one just to try it. The risotto balls came out a little sooner than the other items. We loved the crispy outside, but not a huge fan of the inside since it was mostly risotto with not enough cheese or something to glue it all together. The sauce tasted like a fancy marinara - it was tart, lightly sweet, but a tad acidic and herby too. In our minds, we imagined our main plates looking differently, but I think it was mostly because we didn't do a good job of reading the menu. The pesto sandwich was good. The eggs reminded us a lot of a quiche-spongey and light. It did not have a strong pesto flavor. The roll seemed homemade; it was good and airy. The Dijon lemon chicken salad sandwich was okay. The chicken thighs chunks were tender, and I could definitely taste the pickles, lemon, and Dijon. I think it needed more salt or even something sweet to balance out the acidic flavors. The bread was well toasted. The fries were delicious with the right amount of salt, crispiness, and variety. The iced tea was not our favorite as it tasted overly sweet which might've removed any fruit flavor. The staff was very attentive, they have lots of tables and high chairs to choose from, and lots of natural sun coming through the large windows.

The lobster grilled cheese was crispy, warm, and flavorful, and the fries were perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I did carryout on both of my orders, but there seemed to be lots of available outdoor seating behind the building.

Very milky almost yogurt feeling. Though there were chunks of cookie dough in mine, you could of fooled me. I hardly could tell when I bit into or was chewing on any pieces of them they didn't have that cookie dough flavor in my opinion. It was good, not bad. But just decent. Maybe I am more for the sweet and flavorful haha. If you like it lighter maybe you will love them. The three kids that were in there only one was taking it serious. The other two were messing around playing with each other (boy and girl) while there was a line. Also, pricier than most.
