    If you like soft serve ice cream, this is the place. Perhaps some of the best soft serve I've ever had in fact. This long time family owned place on Rt. 3 makes it all right there and they often have special run flavors in addition to soft serve sherbet (which BTW is also terrific), you might think its like Dairy Queen and perhaps the business model was but its not plastic like and you can taste the love cooked into everything they make. Felix is the Ted Drews of Granite City!

    Been a customer for over 25yr. The customer service is not good when the owner is not there. Proportion size is off, it's not the same.

    The owner is super friendly. It is a Granite City tradition to go and get Ice Cream from Mr.Twist! Their blizzards are to die for!

    I have been going here for over 20 years. They have the best raspberry sherbet. Their prices are great and the service is excellent.

    A classic STL staple. Come for the authentic sodas and stay for the dill pickle soup…read more This classic restaurant has sandwiches, soup, burgers, ice cream, and salads. A great place to enjoy a lunch or just a bit of ice cream to satisfy a sweet tooth. The inside is small so it may be hard to enjoy with large groups. The table spacing is compact so it can be a little tricky moving with a walker or wheelchair. Street parking only

    Extremely unsafe for anyone with food allergies or celiac disease…read more We told the staff multiple times that we are gluten-free and vegan, and specifically asked whether the pita and hummus were safe for us. We were repeatedly told that they were. When the food came out, I asked twice more if the pita was gluten-free and was again told yes. We ate some of it based on those assurances. I finally went and asked another employee, who then told us that the pita DOES contain gluten. This is not a minor mistake for someone with celiac disease. We specifically disclosed the dietary restriction, repeatedly verified the food, and were given incorrect information multiple times before eating it. What makes this especially concerning is that The Fountain on Locust promotes itself as being allergy-friendly. If a restaurant is going to make that claim, staff need to understand food allergies and celiac disease and be able to accurately identify what is and is not safe. We would never have eaten the pita if we had been given correct information. After this experience, I would not trust this restaurant with a serious food allergy or celiac disease. Management needs to address its allergen procedures and staff training before someone gets seriously hurt.

    Satan, be gone. Shivers Frozen Custard is sinful. Having lived in STL for 40 years and the last 20…read morefairly close to Ted Drew's. 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.
