There was a nice gal scooping, but Allie at the register was clearly bored and rude. I tipped anyway, and turned to leave when my waffle cone broke in my hand, and my scoop fell onto the floor, right in front of the register. Allie said nothing and went to help the next customer.

The boba is terrific (they always make it just the way I ask for it), and there are a ton of ice cream flavors. I can also always find a souvenir here that's a hit with nieces and nephews. I'm so grateful for these little places that help to support the community and bring...
