The course itself was not the most interesting or challenging, and some holes were repeats of others, but it was well maintained and easy for children to pick up. Plus, for $3.50 per ball you can't beat it! I had a butterscotch milkshake and drank it so fast I can't really remember how it tasted. Must have been delicious though. My friends ordered actual food like mozzarella sticks and hot dogs, and they looked very frozen but that's expected. Double Dip is a great spot to do a double take!

I cheated. I cheated on the boy…read more I cheated on the Frosty Boy. I cheated on the Frosty Boy with Double Dip Depot! It all started on a smoky, 87 degree Saturday in July when our camping plans got a rain check and we were open for a good time. Big Mini Putt Club was initially discussed but nixed because we weren't feeling the downtown vibe or $12 a person/9 holes. Then, we looked up AJ's mini golf but they had a private event scheduled. Yelp suggested Double Dip and after one ring, the employee on the telephone sold us with $3.50/person for 18 holes and recommended we come before 7p (thanks for the tip!). We parked, watched the first half of England vs. France at Walker Roadhouse and walked right over to the Depot. The course was perfect (no waiting around and lots of shade) for our 4 year old who got her first hole in one on the 15th! The ice cream/cone of ice came out quick (no line either) at 6:30p and we had our choice of picnic tables with umbrellas to enjoy. Overall, great family date night! We rarely frequent the west side, besides for the zoo, but will have to plan another trip before the summer ends. Sorry Frosty Boy - we'll see you soon (probably tomorrow) and congrats on winning Best of the West!

They have a lot of unique sundae options, which made it surprisingly difficult to choose. I ended up getting the Peanut Butter Shipwreck with vanilla ice cream, and it was delicious. The ice cream-to-topping ratio was perfect, and the combination of hot fudge and cold ice cream brought everything together really well. It was also very reasonably priced for the portion size. My only critique is that I expected it to be made with hard ice cream rather than soft serve. That said, the soft serve was still very good. It does melt pretty quickly, though, so don't wait too long before digging in. There's plenty of outdoor seating, and they even have a mini golf course in the back. The whole place has a fun, laid-back atmosphere and is a great spot to hang out with family and friends. Their soft serve cones also looked incredibly good and picture-worthy, so I'll definitely be trying one of those the next time I visit.

They have a decent selection of all the things you're looking for at an ice cream shop. We got a chunky shake (like a blizzard), two kid's scoops, and a pup cup. You do have to ask for everything, as they dont keep anything outside on the counter - napkins, spoons, etc. You do have to walk through the parking lot, down a path to get to an area with a few picnic benches and a trash can. No frills, small area with gravel. Evryone enjoyed their ice cream, no complaints there! It does leave a little be desired, as far as an ice cream destinate goes.... nothing for kids to enterain themselves on, off a busy road and you sit next to the parking lot. Service was super friendly! We did notice that the building was for sale - including the business.

Should have weighed it just to see how much the cup costs lolol. Lots of flavor and toppings options. Facility was clean and smelled like an ice cream shop should so I felt very comfortable selecting toppings. I chose cotton candy yogurt with gummy bears as a kicker. Total cost $5.35 definitely a place you could spend some money at if you are not careful. I plan on going back for another flavor combo next time I am in the area. The staff was youth and kind. Didn't feel rushed or pressured to buy.

This stuff is expensive but there's really no way for you to know how much you're going to be paying until your cup is weighed. This business model is so wild to me, yet it works. Nate and I stopped in to this location of the Pump House recently for a sweet treat. The bowls are huge, which makes you buy more! They also have cardboard dividers so you can separate your bowl and try up to three flavors, which is what I did. The options are extensive - I think they had at least 20 flavors of frozen yogurt. They also have hard scooped ice cream but I'm not sure if you can use the toppings bar on those choices. I tried the vanilla caramel swirl, mint, and mango raspberry sorbet. They have dairy free options which is nice. The toppings bar is bonkers - I've never seen so many options, ranging from sweet to salty to weird (hot cheetos anyone?). I typically go for the gummy candy but I wish I knew which toppings were the lightest! At 69 cents per ounce, we paid over $20 for our two cups. That's bananas to me, honestly, but I knew it would be pricey going in. The vanilla caramel was my least favorite of the frozen yogurt flavors - it was definitely very caramel-y flavored but I thought it was overpowering. The mint was really good and the sorbet was sour and refreshing. Definitely not a place I'll go regularly, but it's a fun place to check out occasionally.
