Bruster's Real Ice Cream — Restaurant in Bethel Park

The young lady who helped me here was so very sweet. She was very patient with me while I decided what flavor I wanted. She has a very nice personality and is very friendly and courteous. I hope that she gets a lot of tips and plenty of shifts. And I hope her co-workers see and learn from her beautiful character. And most of all, I hope people are kind to this kind young lady; because I'm sure it's hard to be so kind and courteous with entitled customers, especially in the midst of this pandemic!! If you're looking for a gem in the South Hills that has delicious, creamy, and flavorful ice cream, yogurt and even non-dairly options made from coconut; which is also coupled with courteous, quick service, head on down to Bruesters!

I asked the cashier, why it is so salty, and he said the pecans are salted. My question is why do they have to be salted? My husband had the white turtle today, and he said it was very salty. So, please, if you must use salted pecans, mix them with unsalted, so it's not so salty. The ice cream should have enough...
