It's that time of year! Great quality custard!…read more Julie Ann's has been our favorite custards since moving here since 2022. It's local and a great place to hang out. Anytime we recommend a place for dessert this is the first in mind. Service is quick and honestly the greatest concept you can wait in your car and they come to you?! Haha seems like most places are doing this but because the influx of folks and people loving this place as well I think it's a great in and out concept.

I had the strawberry one and my sister got apple which shockingly was really good because I don't like apple desserts. The inside is really nice too, they have some cool painting, decor, and games to play while you wait or enjoy your sweets. I can't wait to visit again!

It's been quite some time since our last visit. The dining room wasn't open yet back then…read more The good news is that the experience only got better! More dessert options, more coffee options, and a great place to sit and enjoy. I love the decor here. The soft Latin music was just the right speed to relax to and enjoy dessert and conversation. The staff is also as friendly as ever, patient and warm as we took some time to decide. This time, we shared a Fruity Churro, which was just the right portion for an after meal treat. And at $6 it's good on the wallet too. We will definitely continue to support this local business and you should too!

As we were driving by it looked as though they were open and advertising you to come inside and purchase their chocolates. Nope. They can't sell if they are not open.

No one was at the store before we left to go elsewhere at 12:15. No one answered the phone when I tried calling twice. Changes in hours are acceptable, but there should have been a sign posted on the front door.

I really found it cool that they had lots of different Sundaes available and some were in a layered form in a cup and others were a more traditional sundae. Next time I definitely want to try out one of their unique sundaes some of the ones that stuck out to me was a coconut one and strawberry shortcake one. They all also had individual drawings along with what was in them to describe the sundaes, which I thought was really, really cute. I really liked that this place is not cookie cutter. It is just what I would've imagined an ice cream shop would've been like in the 80s and 90s, tons of personality. There was a good amount of seating around the ice cream shop that you could enjoy your treat at. I ended up going with a dipped cone and I chose the cake batter dip and it was really good. They had about 10 different things. You could dip the soft serve ice cream cones in. I will definitely be back!

A few months ago I left a review about a blonde hair coming out from one of the Dubai chocolate…read morecookies. Corporate responded to me. Just giving me a free cookie. I would've thought this could've escalated and actually did something about it. Not just give me a free cookie. Apparently they did nothing about it to this crystal lake store and their hygiene. I got some mini cookies last week, and once again a long blonde hair tangled inside the lemon poppy seed cookie. This is getting ridiculous. I can't even eat a crumbl cookie in peace without having the need to stare at the cookie and be on the look out for a hair.

We were reminiscing about a date we went on early in our relationship where we had Thai Rolled Ice…read moreCream. Out of curiously I searched to see if there was one in the area and found Coco Rolls. Since we were on the town, we decided to stop in and check it out before they closed. First I will say that they are located in a strip mall, but in a part of it that makes it hard to find. We drove past it a couple of times before we realized they were in a nook on a courtyard area. You do have to look to find it as you will not see it from the road easily. Upon entering we found a fun little shop. There's not a lot of seating, but I feel like most of their customers are an order and go crowd. When we entered there were no other customers, we ordered our rolled ice cream and sat at the table they had to eat. While eating others came in, but ordered and left. I had the Oreo and Nutella rolls my lady had the caramel. Both were delicious. Overall, we were pleased. I wish they were closer to where we lived, but it will be a nice occasional visit. I can't comment on the Boba as we didn't order any, but maybe next time.

It is a cute little place Small business…read more Ordered cold coffee latte with boba- which was really good. Not much substituting options. No sugar free syrups available. Hot Taro tea with boba was ordered- not hot at all, it was just warmed to room temperature. Taro powder mix is not mixed well and i could feel texture all the time I was trying to drink. Flavor was decent. But I think they need to use mixer to have more uniform mix than just stirring it with spoon. They have plenty of cake and icecream options and have mini squishy vending machines.

I accidentally stumbled upon the bakery on an internet search. Oh, oh my!…read more I purchased a chicken pot pie, quiche Lorraine, a daily special Beef Stroganoff and a box of tarts. Every single thing was delicious. I cannot recommend it enough and will be going back soon for more. Not to be missed.

I have been wanted to try this place for awhile but the timing was never right . So the other day I…read morehad a craving for some pie. So i went. I ended up getting a raspberry torte which was very good, a blackberry pie which was so so . I say that because the blackberries were a bit too tart and Im not a lover of the dough crust that was used. I also picked up two chicken pot pies which were good but the filling was a bit runny or too thin in my opinion. The flavor was good but I would think that the chicken should be shredded instead of it being cubed. As cubed give me a feeling of eating a Swansons frozen pot pie. Dont get me wrong this is so much better than that but it just reminded me of it.

The restaurant was packed, everyone seemed to have the same idea as us to dine here…read more My husband ordered the Angel hair pasta with chicken and tomato sauce on the side. It came with a soup. He picked the French onion soup and for 99 cents more you can get it baked... so he did. He loved the soup and would definitely order that again. He didn't really care for the taste of the sauce and the texture of the chicken. He would order something else next time. It was supposed to come with bread but we had to ask for it. I ordered the 2 pancakes with 2 eggs over easy. It was delicious and I would order it again. All the desserts look so delicious. We ordered a square of chocolate peanut butter fudge but it was not very good. Definitely don't recommend it. It was sweet and rich and could have used a little sea salt sprinkled on the top. Definitely did not taste like peanut butter... maybe more of a maple syrupy taste. We will be back again. They have special senior daily dinners too for people over 65 so if you're a senior you may want to dine here. Our waitress was kind and kept asking us if we needed anything. Definitely love the service here! The ambiance is very relaxing. We dined here around 8pm and the lights were dim and it was very comfortable. A perfect place to have dinner and talk.

A bit too far from the crib for casual visits, but worth my recommendation. Eat here.
