This store is very open, with a lot of room for each aisle and so being physically distant from other people is very easy, and I have never been in the store when there are more than 4 people, including the cashier. They have rice. And ramen, two things that have been in short supply. They also have some fresh produce that is good quality and a good value.

In my travels I haven't found many places where you can get a double bacon burger, brisket fries and a cold beer for around $20. The burger with brisket fries was awesome and the Pilsner was a great combination to wash it down. Service was awesome and the patio offers a great view. Overall this is a great spot!!!! I not only recommend this place but personally can't wait to come back!!!

None of the images look appetizing, none of the videos look remotely similar to the actual shop. Why are the children in the video 8 years old? Do you have 8 year olds working in there? Why are they pulling icecream out of thin air??? It's insulting and hilariously worthless to take the time to make something like this. Totally ruins the hometown charm and makes it feel like a private equity slophouse.

You couldn't pass through Iowa City and find this as it's now hidden behind a Casey's, section 8 housing and a ton of industrial warehouses that possibly launder for the Mexican cartel.

And I noticed this was next-door so while I was waiting to get my test done, I looked on their website and it said butter brickle ice cream. So naturally, I had to go in. The place was clean and cool, especially considering how hot it was today. The staff was friendly and helpful. And the butter brickle ice cream, was if you're old enough to remember, like the old blue bunny ice cream back in the day. To save myself, future headaches, I only bought two scoops and I did not take any home for my freezer, but I was very tempted to do so. I also bought a double scoop for the gentleman who did my tests next-door. I bought two scoops and I took a lid with me, but it did not last the 45 minute ride home. In short, it was great ice cream and it tasted just like the old recipe did back in the day. Five out of five, would recommend, will return
