Shout out to Sam and his family's business for having this establishment!…read more I tried 4 of their flavors - biscoff, coffee, strawberry cheese cake and Oreo. All were great but my favorite one was coffee because it was so creamy, flavorful, and reminds me of how my favorite ice cream should taste! As a foodie from LA, I can certify that this local establishment in Rochester is still around for a very good reason. Give them a visit next time you're over there!

They also open late, so we were able to enjoy it after dinner. Really love the simplicity of the interior design and has a lot of indoor seating and some outdoor.

There are picnic tables and a grassy area where you and your friends can sit and enjoy a Blizzard or some other ice cream delight. It's also the first DQ in Minnesota??!! How cool that the same family still manages the place. Got a blizzard for my first time and loved it! The twix and butterfinger combination was really yummy. The butterfingers do get stuck to your teeth a bit since it's colder but that part of that option, right? The only aspect that I would change is to make it melt slower lol. I like to enjoy my desserts slowly but it melted so fast that I ended up putting it in the freezer when I got home so that it could harden up again. Note to self: Still really good post-freezer. Service is really friendly here even when you bring in the deals from the DQ application. Yesterday happened to be National Ice Cream Day and there were free small blizzard vouchers. Needless to say, I was there at DQ. The gentleman helping me kindly redeemed the coupon and pressed used after helping us pick some of the flavor/toppings. Will definitely be back.

This Dairy Queen is really unique -- it's been in the same location for 65 years, and is really kitschy/cute. It's just a summertime ice cream shack, and they serve you soft serve through the window. The place is filled with young, earnest high schoolers who happily make your dip cone. This DQ is quintessentially Rochester, and if you're here in the summer, I recommend stopping by for a feel of what life in town is really all about.

At first I was confused because it seemed to be a plant store, but they are located inside the store to the far left when you walk in! The staff here was really wonderful! I had questions and they were happy to answer! I decided to try their spring fling latte which had rhubarb and a thyme cold foam. Yes you read that right. It was an almost savory cold foam. While I give them props for stepping out of the box with this coffee, this just wasn't my favorite. My friend got a chai drink and that was very tasty!! This place has SO many cute items inside and around as well! I would definitely come back and just try something different! The vibes here are bright and so cute! This is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area!
