Mrs Good Day Ice Cream — Restaurant in Griffin

So my wife is going to leave a different review and I felt I needed to get both sides. This is a wonderful place with a very caring owner. We arrived with 2 boys (10 and 9) and a girl (10). I was just going to order for the kids and bring the ice creams out as the boys decided to go shirtless (maybe a bit young but I did show them the restaurant scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High the other day - related - maybe). Anyway - the owner was very nice and the store was empty and invited the shirtless in. The 9 year old was forbidden to have ice cream because he did not eat dinner (my wife's idea) and I decided I would share my ice cream with him (and my wife was annoyed but it was I felt an ok compromise). The owner overheard my whisper to the 9 year old that I would share and passed me an empty cup with my waffle cone and whispered she had LOADED my ice cream to share with the 9 year old - HOW SWEET and CARING. It was hot outside and I was so thankful to sit with wife, shirt, and shirtless kids IN the store. There were toys around and the kids started playing. I thought - how cool. A few minutes later a different lady appeared from the back ( I think her name was Karen) and kind of yelled then kind of kindly basically told the kids these toys were really not for them. Hmmm - whatever. My wife was pissed and rounded the kids up and left (I decided I better leave too since she had the keys to the golf cart). I would say - if you don't let your kids play with the toys that are abundantly around this ice cream place - you will have a great time ! I think the owner is awesome - as well as the ice cream - maybe keep Karen in the back or hide the toys. Running an ice cream store must be tough - they have a 100 A grade inspection. I know the owner is super caring and could not run a better store...

I was looking for a good spot to stop for something sweet, just needed a little "me time mommy break" and something to uplift my spirits. Googled some cookie and ice cream spots open, and this was the ONLY business open after 5:30pm on a Sunday evening. I'm so glad I stopped in. It was exactly what I needed; some peace and quiet, some amazing ice cream, laughs, and good conversation. Will definitely be back A LOT MORE now that I know they also make desserts and lemonade/tea and so much more. I love that they have a tv and toys to keep the little ones occupied and even have several games to play while enjoying your sit-down visit. Can't wait for my next visit, I may even bring my babies.

Brought 1 of my babies and their friend for some treats during the Mardi Gras celebration. The kiddos had a blast playing, and we all enjoyed some delicious ice cream. I just love how comfy and homy...

THIS PLACE IS DANGEROUS!!!! I stepped in on a Sunday to try it out for the first time. Carrot cake ice cream was on the menu and I tried it since I love carrot cake. I didn't eat it until I got back to my workplace. I almost ate the plastic container it came in! Lol... I remembered she said the flavors change everyday, so I wanted to go back for more before she closed but I was 5 minutes too late. That ice cream was absolutely delicious and it's too bad I took so long to stop by. I'm happy I got a chance to try it, but sad since I don't know when she will have her carrot cake ice cream on the menu again. Nonetheless, it's still a Good Day. Two thumbs up for...
