    Do not order burgers from this location they never get them right! They also look horribly unappealing!!

    Kassana is a great worker. She was very good and understood our very confusing order.

    Best vanilla shake of any fast food joint in my opinion. My husband ate and said the chicken sandwich was the star. When we pulled up and they saw we had our dog they offered to make her a complimentary doggie sundae. Fast service through the drive through.

    My first visit to a Sonic was, to say the least, interesting ... buckle up, kids, this is gonna be a fairly long review. For those of you who just want the executive summary, the food and service mostly exceeded my expectations, but the atmosphere was what I'd imagine visiting a carnival while tripping on acid would be like. For those of you who are wondering what I mean by that comparison, well, you'll just have to read on and let me 'splain. So, Sonic is fast food, but they give you three options for ordering: you can go inside and order at a counter; go through the drive-through; or park at an ordering kiosk, and a carhop on roller skates or Rollerblades will bring your food out. The parking lot is the epitome of chaos; seriously, they need ground traffic controllers, like the kind you see on aircraft carriers, wielding glow sticks. There are all kinds of lanes and arrows going on, and it's difficult to park in this cramped afterthought that they plopped onto an already-dizzying commercial strip that some people affectionately nickname "Bald Hell Road". I chose to go inside to order, and it was honestly the most awkward experience I have ever had ordering fast food. First off, the counter is very small. A couple with two small kids was ahead of me. They took up the whole counter, so that I couldn't tell that one of the two cashiers was waiting for me to step up. When I finally stepped up to order, I was in a very precarious position, having to dodge waiters and waitresses whizzing by on Rollerblades to my right, and squirmy kids to my left (their dad lassoed the boy by the hood of his coat). One of the waiters on skates tried to show off with a pirouette, but stumbled and nearly fell. Eventually, I got through the ordering process, and was handed a pedestal with my order number. I sat at the closest booth to wait and OWWWW! Big mistake!! I jarred my spine so much it hurt! I just assumed the booths were padded, so I plopped down, but they were hard, solid wood! Actually, the dining room was cold (literally and figuratively) and industrial looking. There were about a dozen booths and a few tables, but it was so sterile, it was uninviting (the bathroom was clean, though). As cold as the atmosphere was, though, the service was very friendly and attentive. They had a greeter to answer any questions, and a man who appeared to be a manager asked if I needed anything. The young man who brought my food out was polite and accommodating. I got the food to go, so I could bring it home to my wife (she was the one who started this whole thing - she got a craving for Sonic after watching an episode of the series, The Simple Life, in which Paris Hilton worked at a Sonic). She ordered a bacon cheeseburger on Texas toast, with a strawberry root beer. I got a double cheeseburger, with a frozen limeade. We also shared an Oreo Sonic Blast. The strawberry root beer was amazing, as was the Oreo Sonic Blast. Even my cheeseburger exceeded expectations. I was expecting something on par with a Wendy's double with cheese, but it tasted way better than Wendy's or McDonald's. It was even better than some Five Guys burgers I've had. My wife enjoyed her bacon cheeseburger also, although next time she'd probably order her burger on a bun instead of toast, because the toast was a bit soggy. The shoestring fries tasted fine, albeit, they were a bit soggy as well. My wife tried to get me to download the Sonic app on my phone, because you get some good deals, but I'm not as smartphone savvy as her. But even paying full price, the food was reasonably priced (about $23 total). Next time, though, I'll probably use the drive-through and skip the carnival inside. Perhaps the best part of this visit was that the drinks I put in the bed of my pickup truck as I drove home like an old lady (I wanted to keep the drinks cold, since I had the heater on full blast to keep the food warm) didn't tip over and spill. Try 'splainin' that to wifey. Hey, I like to live dangerously.

    Rating: 4.0 Came to…read moretry this ice cream place since we live nearby and had not tried yet. It's a small local ice-cream shop located in Warwick RI. Inside is kind of like a diner converted into an ice cream shop. There is a counter where they serve ice creams and bunch of tables, seats and diner counter as well. When we came there were bunch of kids likely from the neighborhood. They offer hard, soft, dole whip, sundaes, waffle nachos, shakes, float and parfait with bunch of topping options. I tried their waffle cone cup with 1 scoop of strawberry cheese cake and 1 scoop of peanut butter pie hard ice-cream. Hard ice cream was pretty good. Waffle cone cup was a bit stale. Probably will just get sugar cone or ice cream in the cup next time. Service was good and staffs were nice. Keep in mind that it's cash only but there are bunch of signs outside so they make that clear. Overall it's a solid ice cream place. It's conveniently located near where i'm located which makes an easy stop for ice cream if my partner or I wants some ice cream. Only thing is that it was not particularly much different from other typical ice cream place. If you are looking for your standard ice cream and don't mind paying cash this is the place.

    Always a great visit at Papa's. Friendly service and great ice cream, what else could you ask for?…read moreJust a reminder that this is a cash only business!

    We were looking for someplace we had never gone for ice cream before. This little shop was nestled…read moreon a side street in Apponaug. Never even knew it was there and they said it was open for at least a year or so I think. Lots of different flavored ice cream, (**sidenote, they have gluten-free cones! )my husband and I each got something yummy, although it was really good I was kind of disappointed to hear that the ice cream was Hershey's. Not a big fan of Hershey's company and I thought because it was a creamery that they made their own ice cream. So a little disappointed with that. BUT the two people serving the ice cream were very friendly, the place was clean and bright and there was outdoor seating as well with music playing. Wasn't too busy at the time which was great. Parking was a little tight because someone parked too close to our car and then someone parked in back of us which made it hard to back out but that didn't take away from the experience really, that was just people parking badly lol. Prices were reasonable, combinations that we had were good, and offering lots of different choices. I would definitely go back again even if they don't make their own ice cream it was still yummy.

I will say the portions are generous, but when you consider the quality, I personally wouldn't consider it worth it. I loveee ice cream and was so disappointed by it. The waffle cone is also wrapped in paper that is impossible to take off.
