The Tin Roof Country Store and Creamery — Restaurant in Blairsville

I had been here two years ago and thought it was a great place, this time was a different situation. The website states that for summer hours on Saturday they close at 9pm. We walked into the store at 7:50 and were excited to get some ice cream. We were ready to order immediately and the three workers that were there just stared at us and walked around/cleaned some things until 8pm. Then they informed us they close at 8 and will not serve us even though we had been waiting ready to order for 10 minutes. I then showed the worker that their website said they closed at 9 and she stated “I don’t get paid past 8 so I will not serve you”. I have worked customer service for many years and if she had told us right when we walked in that we wouldn’t have been served that is one thing but they let us sit there while two of the workers did nothing until 8 so they could say we we here past close. We ended up going to the ice cream place down the street that was attached too mini golf and it was delicious! The customer service was good and I would recommend going to Blairsville ice cream and mini golf instead of tin...

We came in about 3:35ish on Saturday 02/06 to get some sweet treats. Two young girls, maybe 14 and 11-12 were there. The older of the two looked in our direction but neither greeted us. Maybe 5 words were spoken to us the entire time we were in there. No one asked if we needed help, were looking for anything, offered a hello, anything. We had to initiate our order and it was extremely awkward, met with blank stares or a head nod. Eventually, we made our way to the check out line and the younger of the two spoke to us, but only to ring us up and ask us if we wanted a bag. As far as the treats go, they left much to be desired. My snow cone has hardly any syrup in it and ice cream servings were tiny. But hey, the younger girl did tell us to have a good day.

And now, as we are sitting outside of the shop looking for our next adventure, my 8 year old is reading the Hershey’s ice cream banner that reads “Real Ingredients. Real Ice Cream. Real Smiles.” and she says to me, “mom, that signs lies. There were no smiles in...

I just discovered this ice cream shop. What a cute place. It’s filled with toys my daughter played with as a child. Toys that will last and keep their imagination going. There was candy that I remember as eating as a child there too. They even have kitchen items, jars of jellies, sauces and syrups etc for sale. Now on to the ice cream. Who knew that Hershey made ice cream? I was so pleased that they had a Carmel truffle ice cream. I choose the Carmel truffle and my daughter choose the dark chocolate ice cream the first time we went. Hershey’s makes great ice cream! Both visits, Kirstin, behind the counter, offered for us to try few different types. She is such a sweet young lady. Very helpful. Our second visit I chose birthday cake. I love when there are actual cake pieces in the ice cream. Why call it birthday cake if there’s no cake. My daughter choose the coffee. There’s a similar one to birthday cake called unicorn. I love finding these new gems ( awesome little shops and stores) around my area. I will be...
