One of my coworkers always raves about Moo Thru, so when I got a chance to visit with a group of…read moreveterans on a motorcycle ride, I decided to join in. Although it was crowded when we arrived, they had plenty of parking in the back of their lot. We grabbed a table under a tree to provide some shade and went to order. Despite the long line, it moved very quickly. When we got up to the front, the cashier asked if we were veterans, seeing everyone wearing their combat service affiliations for the rider's group. For ease of ordering, we put everything on one tab, and were absolutely amazed by the incredibly generous military discount! (The group was truly touched, so thank you very much to Moo Thru for honoring their service.) The ice cream was delivered to us from the back window. It was delicious!! The ice cream was so creamy, and I could eat a whole gallon of the cookies & cream. While it's a bit of a hike for me to get to Moo Thru, it's definitely worth the distance, and I look forward to my next visit!

It's hard to miss this spot driving through central Virginia. The roadside environment makes it…read moreconvenient, but you'll certainly never forget you're by a highway. There is a drive-through but also some picnic tables and a parking area to eat. In addition to ice cream, they offer beverages and basic American food. Their ice cream yielded rich flavor, albeit an alcoholic aftertaste with the mint. The chips were of high quality. The spoon was a bit dicey for eating ice cream like this. While it is a dairy-focused institution, they do offer sorbet.

Out of three ice cream spots our family tried in the Warrenton area this one was the overall…read morewinner. Why? Variety of menu: while their soft serve selections are slim and honestly a little boring, they make up for it with their flavor of the week, options for shakes, great toppings and cones, funnel cakes, sundaes. Toppings: great topping assortment and I looooooved my funnel cake sundae which came with a topping as well. Shakes: they have many different styles of doing shakes and everyone loves a good mix in of some sort. Price point is fair for the portions and quality of food. Lines get long but move quickly and there are several areas to sit down. I didn't see anyone cleaning the tables which was my only recommendation to keep guests comfortable as they have a good turn over of customers at this great spot!

The problem is... it had a GREAT concept going for awhile and it stopped!

The room is closed, no cool music, kids are in there, my Bartender is GONE! And they don't even help you if you sit at the bar!!! We walked out!!! We were so disappointed!

They were playing Barry white and all kinds of good songs too, super relaxing. Love it!

Great ice cream great vibe, except for one thing. There is a girl calling out peoples names (it's…read more8:30 on a Friday night) and it is totally killing the vibe. I can tell people are annoyed by her yelling and it even startled my 5 month old niece. I literally downloaded the yelp app just to make sure that she does not get put on that job again. She seems like a hard worker but there are certain people for certain jobs and she should not be on the yelling peoples name's job. Again, great place and great vibe except for the yelling. Maybe a speaker/ microphone system could solve this or have someone with a softer voice calling out names.

There are places you go because you need something, and there are places you go because life is…read morejust better when you do. Messick's falls into that second category. You start out thinking it's just a farm market but inside, the place has all the usual farm market suspects--fresh produce, baked goods, meats--but then you notice the food counter. That's where things go sideways in the best possible way. The sandwiches are flat-out good, not "good for a farm store," but actually good. And the breakfast burritos are not normal human-sized food. They're the kind of burritos that make you reconsider your life choices halfway through eating one, in a positive way. Outside is where Messick's really shows off. Kids running everywhere, farm people doing what farm people do, and enough seasonal activities to keep families occupied until everyone forgets what time it is. It's the kind of place where parents sit down "for just a minute" and then suddenly it's an hour later and nobody is in a hurry to leave. If you're rolling in with a camper, it also works as a Harvest Hosts stop, which is a polite way of saying you can legally fall asleep there without anyone bothering you. Parking is easy in a grass-and-gravel area that's simple to level into, and once the day crowd clears out it gets quiet in that good country way. Verizon signal holds up well too, which is either a blessing or a curse depending on how hard you were trying to escape emails. What makes Messick's dangerous is that it's not trying to be anything other than what it is--but it ends up being more anyway. You go for a quick stop and leave feeling like you accidentally spent the afternoon at somebody's family reunion, except nobody made you help clean up afterward. In a world full of overcomplicated stops and underwhelming food, Messick's is refreshingly simple: good food, good people, and just enough chaos to make it interesting.

We've made the trip to Messick's on a few special occasions but never again will we return. My…read moredisabled mother made it about 3' into the store with her service dog when the "market dog" appeared and wouldn't leave us alone. An older man in a t-shirt talking on the phone waved us on saying it was ok. The second time the dog approached us, I asked the man if he would leash the dog. He said, "No I will not". So, we left. It is unfortunate he chose to disregard our safety and comfort, and ruin this special outing. We are clearly "dog people" but were intimidated by this dog and especially the man. It was a stunning experience.

Finally got to try the local favorite for ice cream! We got…read morethe ice cream flight--you can choose 4 flavors. We went with the daily specials: Cookie Monster, Funfetti, FlufferNutter, and Cow Tripping. With tax, it was $8.25. Pricing is quite good compared to other ice cream establishments. Line was pretty long but we got our ice cream after 25 minutes of standing in line--it took 5 minutes once our order was placed to get our order. Nice staff and there is a bathroom onsite but you have to ask so they can let you in. Cookie Monster: Definitely get if you love a good amount of cookie in your ice cream. Such a fun blue color! Funfetti: The birthday cake flavor isn't too strong but it came with a reasonable amount of sprinkles. FlufferNutter: The peanut butter was more apparent in their chunks than the ice cream itself. It was quite nutty overall, but not too in your face. Cow Tripping: I was hoping it would be my favorite since it is chocolate with Reese's pieces, but it didn't have much Reese's. Good chocolate ice cream though.
