We pulled up to what looked like an old Italian restaurant. When we entered there was a board with specials and a hostess/waitress seated us. I was a little trepidatious since we were the only people there but very rarely do you yelpers steer me wrong! Our British company ordered hot tea, while the rest of the party ordered water, juice or soda. I say this only because each Brit got a teapot of their own. It was lovely and appreciated! Most of our table got omelets due to the recommendation of the waitress and they were definitely delicious. But the potatoes that accompanied them were the best thing we had there! I had the biscuits and gravy (a special on the board). While they were tasty, the biscuit was more crumbly than I like and the presentation was visually unappealing. The interior was clean and had a definite "Mom and Pop" vibe. It is Veteran owned, which was a plus for us! The price was just right for the very good breakfast that we were served. I would recommend you stop here at any point on your vacation, you won't be disappointed.

Very disappointed with our experience. The customer service was absolutely terrible -- the staff were rude and dismissive, especially toward my family. We tried to discuss a food allergy concern, and the person in charge acted like it was an inconvenience rather than a legitimate health issue. No effort was made to accommodate or even have a respectful conversation about it. To make things worse, there were several customers standing at the front waiting to order, and the staff just ignored them. No greeting, no acknowledgment, nothing. It was uncomfortable and unprofessional. read more

The wife and I each got a single scoop in a cup and with tax and a small tip it was $12.23! Really?? $12.23 for two scoops of ice cream? It was good but not that good for what they charged! I would hate have seen what two scoops, a banana split or one of their specialty bowls would have cost! Service was friendly, but I would only go back if our daughter and granddaughter wanted us to go with them as the wife and I thought $12.23 for two scoops of ice cream was way overpriced and would not return here again on our own.

It's super bright, colorful, and fun. The llama pictures on the walls were really cool and made the whole place feel playful and unique. The staff greeted us as soon as we walked in, which was nice. They also had printed menus you could grab and read easily instead of just staring up at a board, which made it simple to look through all the options. I also thought it was really fun that they had board games on each table, which made it a great place to sit, hang out, and enjoy your dessert. I ordered the Bubble Waffle "Dolly Dream", but swapped the Nutella for peanut butter, yummm! The bubble waffle itself was soooo good. Warm, soft, and just the right texture with the ice cream. It definitely felt like more of a dessert experience than just grabbing a regular ice cream cone. We would 100% come back. It's definitely not your basic ice cream shop, and it was such a fun place to try!

I knew it was life changing, not kidding! ;) when we had to go back the next night before we left town. Each evening the staff was helpful, patient (for newbies), and informative. And while the ice cream was great (pro tip: Dark Cherry!) the star of the show was the Italian Cream cake. My wife saw it and immediately had to have a slice with our ice cream (OK, we actually took it back to the hotel) and was really the reason we had to go back the next night (another piece of cake). I don't need to tell you how taking a bite of this cake causes the heavens to open, the angels to sing, and my heart to be happy! OK, as a diabetic the rest of my body may not have been very happy, but whatever. ;) A truly great experience from beginning to end. Staff, products, ambiance was all great and not only worthy of a 2nd night trip, but honestly my reason for heading back from Atlanta. No, not the beautiful area, not the food, not all the fun things to do, but Drippy's and another scoop of ice cream with a glorious piece of Italian Cream cake! See you again soon . . .
