The Pink Cow — Restaurant in Alton

Me and my husband took our boys here yesterday because we always drive by on our dates. When I got to the window the girl at the counter looked annoyed so I smile and spoke but she didn’t respond. We ordered and my little boys were being busy as boys do and you could just see the disgust on her face. I didn’t say anything because I just wanted us to enjoy our day. We got our ice cream and sat down when my husband noticed there was no banana in his bananas split. I went back and asked and while the girls didn’t say anything rude the look in there faces were of nothing but what I said “disgust”. I asked didn’t their splits come with banana and she said yes I informed her he had none. She turned and looked at the girl behind her and paused in silence for a second before telling me he could bring it back. But I was so turned off by the look on the cashiers face made me just say forget it. The ice cream was delicious that’s why I gave 3 stars and my boys had a blast. Not sure why we were treated the way and I hate to think on the only thing it could have been. Next time I will just send my husband to order because I don’t think I can take someone looking at me or my children...

I had to wait another 3-4 minutes before the concrete was ready. By that time the sundae had turned to soup. It wouldn’t have been difficult to give the two item order at the same time and keep them in the air conditioned building. I guess I’m complaining about a lack of common sense by the people...

I asked about bubble gum ice cream because I saw a picture on Google maps. Unfortunately, they do not have bubble gum, but I tried the cotton candy ice cream. I love it! It is so much better than dairy queen! I love the prices. A regular is 3.33 with tax! The scoop was huge! I am a huge fan of cheesecake and a cheesecake concrete is cheaper than a cheesecake blizzard from dairy queen. I can not wait to...
