I was ordering individual items when the server said, "You can get a better deal with the combo of a sandwich (there are 5 choices!), large pop, and fries." She was right. That's great customer service. I added a Razzle (their iteration of a DQ Blizzard) flavor of the month--caramel turtle. Yummy and chock full of chocolate covered caramel candies. Good deal. Good meal. Recommended.

Cute place that sells more than just ice cream. But, the ice cream is the best reason to come here!…read more They have a good variety of flavors of their smooth, delicious ice cream. If you like your ice cream (enjoyed in a cone or cup), you can also find more in the freezer pack to-go. They also sell a lot of food items (made in Iowa) as well as a bit of fresh produce, milk, and meat. There are places to sit both inside and outside to enjoy the ice cream. This is a good place to stop with a family or maybe to take a break from a bike ride from the nearby trail.

She provided excellent guidance in making decisions on the choices. We provided a photo of what we were looking for and the results surpassed our expectations. Tiffany set up the cake and cupcakes in such a beautiful manner, with special touches. Three key points in working with Triple Tier: 1. Through our interactions, her questions, and how accommodating Tiffany was, the care and attention she provided made it clear she really wanted to do her part to make sure the event was wonderful. We live three hours away and were able to take care of all the details through phone/email/text. 2. As stated the end product was beautiful and exceeded expectations. We ordered vanilla, chocolate, and carrot cake cupcakes. There was a light dusting of cinnamon on the carrot cake frosting making it easy to tell them apart. The attention to detail was wonderful. 3. The actual taste of the cake and cupcakes was amazing. The flavor of each was distinct and delicious. The frosting was perfect, not too sweet. I have no idea how she did it, but the bride and groom wanted a marble cake and it was marbled. It looked like marble, not like traditional bakery marble cake. After tasting the cake, they both remarked "Ok that is a really good cake!" I highly recommend Triple Tier - We have a favorite bakery where we live and the Triple Tier cake and cupcakes surpassed the deliciousness of our local expert.

What a great find. Had apple and cherry turnovers and a cinnamon roll. All fresh and tasty! If you like quality, artisan baked goods (nothing against the glazed donut/cream filled donut crowd) this is the place to go in Marion. The folks behind the counter were super friendly and made us feel good about stopping by. Finding it threw me for a second, though. They are in a house in what looks like a normal housing neighborhood. The sign is under the eaves and it's set back front the sidewalk under a nice shade tree. If you don't see it at first, look again. You'll be glad you did.
