I bought the seashells on Amazon and had the bakery add it to the cake. This is where it gets interesting....my daughter wanted strawberry cake with pineapple filling and for the sand to be biscoff crumbs (we love biscoff)! Let me tell you!!! The cake was so delicious! Not only did every guest actually wanted a piece but for once the entire cake was gone with no leftovers . 2nd cake I ordered it in October for my son's 21st birthday. She loves Biscoff as much as we do so she asked for a biscoff cake and that cake was also so good!!! My son who wasn't a biscoff fan became a fan. 3rd cake is in order for Jan. 14th so I'll update it with more pictures

The location is very cute with excellent signage and they have the cart out front that they still use for leftover/end of day discount items. There was a large variety of baked goods on the day I stopped in. It was hard to choose just one so I had to try a few. Gooey butter cake was very good, definitely stl style. The apple turnover was PERFECTION with a light crust and the perfect amount of filling. I purchased a sugar -free cheesecake for hubby and he loved it. The texture was excellent. We were so excited that they had a sugar free offering! Prices were very reasonable. Especially for the sugar free. I will be back!

The first thing I noticed when I walked through the door was the pie case. It was "seat yourself," so I decided to sit at the counter. I was acknowledged and waited on right away. They have menus, but I didn't really need one because of the lighted display boards on the wall above the counter. Originally, I was going to order ice cream but decided on a slice of coconut cream pie and a cup of coffee. Not many people were ordering coffee, so I got a fresh pot. The pie crust was flaky while the filling was rich and creamy. My only regret is that I didn't have enough room to order a slice of peach crumb pie, too. Young's features the piecrete which is a slice of pie blended with soft-serve ice cream. Some of the pie is reserved for the topping. (I will definitely have to try one of those!) Also, on my "to-try" list is the chicken basket. The chicken is given a saltwater rinse (brining), before being breaded and cooked in a pressure fryer. While chicken is what they are famous for, I would say it's their friendly, top-notch service that accounts for their repeat business and longevity. Not many restaurants have been in business for over 70 years! If your travels take you to Valley Park, this place is a must stop. Be sure to check out the photos and memorabilia. Special thanks to the owner, Grant, for giving me additional history and information about Young's. I look forward to going there again.

I've been here many times over the years and the food is always delicious. For the age of the building, the restaurant stays super clean. You first walk in to a pie case, full dining room to seat yourself and a diner bar to order and sit at. Since the last time I've been here they've updated their menu boards to digital, cool! I ordered a smash burger with cheese and hush puppies. I love their basic hush puppies! He ordered a double smash cheeseburger and the new jalapeño mac n cheese bites with ranch. They asked if we wanted to keep a tab open, yes! We'll be back for ice cream. The burger was savory and simple. The hush puppies were crisp, flavorful, but a consistent breading inside. Jalapeño mac n cheese bites were served with ranch had a stronger jalapeño flavor but was rich, creaming, crunchy, and delicious. All food was brought to your table with smiles. For dessert he got the coconut cream pie. I didn't see him stop to breathe. My favorite ice cream topping is their cherry chip dip put in the concretes. Unfortunately, they were out! I went simple and got a small cup of soft serve classic vanilla. So. Good. This family owned business is a great lunch or dinner stop for treats or to pass time with friends.

Were back baby!…read more Happy to be updating my review with a solid 5 stars! I live close to Wally's so I do come here pretty often. Since my last review in 2023 I've been here no less than 50 times since then (figuring on at least 2 per month) and at least get some sort of hot food snack each time. For starters, there have been some changes with the pizza. My favorite now is simply the cheese. I know it seems plain, but its flavor is really really good, and it considerably less greasy then the pepperoni. This is especially important when trying to eat a slice in the car. My second fav is the 3 meat which offers a better balance of flavors than the overloaded pepperoni. As much as I love pepperoni, Wally's just puts too many on IMO. However, NONE of these can beat the Garlic cheese bread pizza which they only do once a month. Its truly phenomenal. There have been some updates to the other food offerings as well. Since my last review they have added hot Pretzels, Chicken tenders, smash burgers, and "soft" tacos to the menu. I can confidently state that the Tacos are my fav of the new items. The burger has potential but like most other things you have to get them when they are fresh. A burger that has been sitting in foil in a warmer for the last 2 hours just isn't going to be as good as a "fresh" one. The Tacos on the other hand seem to hold up better, and I actually could argue that they get BETTER if they have been on the warmer for a bit. They are more uniformly heated and the raw onions are softer because of it. I've had them both freshly prepared, and from the hot case and the hot case was actually better. The pretzels are good, but nothing to get too excited about and the tenders are pretty plain (pre-frozen and deep fried) as well. I actually have the habit of dipping them in the nacho cheese and it makes a world of difference. The breakfast tacos are still my absolute favorite go-to quick breakfast and the Smores and chocolate chunk cookies always tickle the sweet tooth perfectly.
