The menu is simple but well thought out with plenty of options for fresh sandwiches and salads. You can choose from the menu or build your own. The interior was inviting, restrooms were clean, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Did I say fresh? Oh yeah! All of the ingredients seem super fresh. I went for the Redbird Club on multigrain bread this time around. A simple yet delicious sandwich was presented and quickly devoured. The next time around, I'm going to have to try one of their salads. They have so many fresh ingredients to choose from, you can't go wrong.

Then it is capped with vanilla ice cream covered in hard shell chocolate and rolled in crushed peanuts. I can describe it in one word, "Yummy". Gogo-May's has a new owner and the service I received was warm and friendly. I was also impressed with the value of my Drumstick. It was worth every penny of the $5. Service is drive-up or walk-up window. This may be a go-to for me when in Grafton, I enjoyed my Drumstick that much.

I am sure we will be back over the years to try other things. The young lady working the window was a delight, bright, friendly and a good ambassador for the place. There are "oddities" all over the lot. I suspect it was quite the back in the hey dey of route 66. It all looks a bit weather-beaten and a little sad right now. Perhaps that is the charm.

I can say in my humble opinion that Shiver's is the better custard. Living nearby, I have finally learned that you don't have to be a kid to order the kiddie size. By ordering the kiddie, I can save calories and perhaps be able to stop by twice during the week instead of limiting myself to one treat. I think Kiddie Size can also be called a, Senior Size. As we age, our appetites are like they use to be. Last night I couldn't pass by when I saw the FOTD (Flavor of the Day) was, Gooey Pecan Pie. I'm really not a Gooey person, but Pecan Pie is my favorite pie, so I couldn't resist. I ordered a Kiddie Concrete. It was rich in flavor and had large pieces of Pecan. I even had full sized pecans in my cup covered in the Gooey sauce. It was the perfect sweet treat to end the day. As a reminder, Shivers is also a coffee shop in the early mornings. So you can also get your caffeine fix, too. I also gotta tell you that they're dog friendly and offer free Pup Cups. Dog must be present to receive the Pup Cup. No To-Go orders for the pups.

This fresh ice cream is made with love and creativity as there are flavors like salted caramel cookies & cream and champagne sorbet. My personal favorite this time visiting the shop was a Biscoff petite scoop with a midnight vanilla cone. The parlor assistants can help describe each flavor profile and can offer you at least three samples in case you can't make up your mind. The adult beverage a.k.a. over 21 infused flavors are delightful, but I find them to be quite strong in flavor. This month is vegan January so they offered a lot of coconut cream based options. They drinks to offer as well so I will need to see what those are next time. The parlor is fairly accessible from the entrance but the walk ways are a bit narrow for wheelchairs. The bathrooms are large which is great considering the small venue. This place is also locally and woman owned. They also offer fun merchandise that is not boring or feels cheap.
