I have been a fan of Herrell's my entire life! Before and after renovation and all! They always…read morehave a great assortment of flavors and I always love to look for their most unique options! They cater to all types of dietary issues and have dairy free and sorbets. Even their cookie and cake selection usually has at least one GF item. Their board also displays if any flavor has wheat, nuts, or eggs in it, which is much appreciated! The staff is always knowledgeable and friendly. The line can be out the door at times, but the staff work diligently to keep it moving. The seating can be tight but it's a nice place to hang out if they have the space. Fun wall hangings and always their signature bears keeping us all company! The only downside to this place is that it is so well frequented, as it should be, that some flavors sell out quickly. It will be there one day and then not the next, so get it while you can. Or alternatively, you can email them and special order a flavor you love that you keep missing. I love that they do this! It takes time, so plan ahead, but it is so worth it! And although I want people to keep this business running, I.e. keep the money flowing so they keep in business... I have to also say, don't forget to come in and get your free birthday sundae!! Maybe just bring a friend who will purchase their own item.

I ordered a blueberry milkshake which was gone in a blink of an eye. Took a bit to get though, there were a couple large groups a head of me and by the time I got mine the line behind me turned into a bottleneck as registers kept taking orders but couldn't push the ice cream out. Early season rust maybe? Overall, lots of flavors to choose from, worth the stop and wait.

You really can't go wrong! Definitely expensive, but so worth it, especially on a summer day!

Good waffle, okay shakes, great owner…read more Came here on a whim, looking for a protein shake place to try. Saw they had protein waffles, and had to make the trek. Going in, it's very reminiscent of a Herbalife shop. They are not affiliated with Herbalife though, which is very much appreciated. Their menu is also very similar to Herbalife, with energy teas and protein shakes. But it looks like they cut ties with the brand and are doing stuff on their own. The menu was a little strange, they offered holiday shakes on their menu but you couldn't order them. We got a red velvet shake and the girlfriend got a custom smoothie. I got a waffle, and she got an avocado toast. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Took pics and dug in. The waffle was good. A little dense and heavy on the stomach, but you want a breakfast to be hearty to last throughout the day. The red velvet shake was watery, the red velvet extract was a little hard on the pallet, had a good chocolate flavor but a strong chemically aftertaste. The shake needed substance and stabilizer. A frozen fruit like açaí berry or banana would help homogenize the mixture, and instead of red velvet extract use a chocolate powder with red food coloring. Also a little bit of thickener like xanthan gum (used in tiny amounts) to help with mouthfeel. The waffle is good as-is. The avocado toast needs salt to help the fruity notes pop and combat the richness of the avocado. Everything bagel seasoning comes to mind. The owner was a delight, very kind and helpful. Which is why I post ways to tweak what she makes to bring them to that next level. It's not bad shakes, from a nice owner. Worth a shot if you need a shake

One change since my last visit is that you now order the ice cream outside instead of inside. The line was long but it moved surprisingly fast. I do wish they offered samples and this time they were missing some of the more unique flavors that I like to try. Kiddo and Wifey got the Orange Pineapple, and they both loved it. The best part was that it wasn't overly sweet. It was light, fruity, refreshing, and the pineapple pieces throughout gave it great texture. My mom got half raspberry and half pineapple from the non dairy sorbet options and really enjoyed both. I went with the Black Raspberry Chip and it was so good. This is that old-school ice cream I grew up with. If you've had it before, you know exactly what I mean. That said, after trying another place just three minutes away, I do think that other ice cream is creamier. I personally prefer a creamier texture, while my wife likes a firmer scoop, so it really comes down to preference. One thing to know before ordering: when they say "one scoop" they really mean one scoop. Don't expect an oversized serving. There are chickens and cows roaming around the farm, which adds to the experience. The animals looked happy, and while seating is limited, there are both indoor and outdoor places to sit and enjoy your ice cream. Overall, this is still a great stop and one I've enjoyed for years. This place is well worth visiting for the farm atmosphere, beautiful views, and classic homemade ice cream.

It's the best vanilla soft serve in the area and beyond. What's most impressive is the over 20 flavors of soft serve which is quite rare. Fear not though as they also serve hard ice cream as well as frozen yoghurt. There's lots of toppings too. So far the two times I've been there there was a line, but it moved fast. This place is a must if you're in the mood for ice cream and worth a reasonable drive as well.
