My husband and I visited Hello Honey on Sunday, 6/1/2025, around 6 PM after enjoying dinner next door at Tequila Modern Mexican. We were excited to try this place for a sweet treat, but were met with cold indifference from the moment we walked in.
Despite both employees clearly seeing us enter — making direct eye contact multiple times — neither acknowledged us. One female employee continued making waffle cones, while the male employee with dark hair repeatedly walked back and forth, glancing at us but saying absolutely nothing.

I’d definitely visit a Hello Honey again so I can try a slice of the ice cream roll…just maybe a different location. There are a bunch of letters of the alphabet on the wall and then written in sharpie are flavor names (like a B and then an arrow with brown butter caramel written on the wall). This is like 5+ ft up on the wall and written in a fading sharpie I’d use for writing in a notebook. The only employee working at the time was a young (potentially high school) person so I had to wait longer than I was anticipating given there was just 1 person in...
