We stopped here while taking a break from a bike ride on the High Trestle Trail. It was a warm day, so ice cream hit the spot! It felt like the shop was either understaffed or didn't have enough equipment, as the wait time was longer than at most other ice cream shops I've visited. The soft serve machine also stopped working while we waited, so one of the people in our group had to choose another flavor and reorder, since chocolate wasn't available. The staff members were friendly, and the one who had to announce that the chocolate wasn't available was very apologetic.

My friend & I stopped here for some ice cream while we were riding the High Trestle Trail, and it was very refreshing. The counter service was convenient and efficient, and the outdoor patio was serviceable. I had a simple chocolate malt and it tasted above average, so I was pleasantly satisfied. Prices are reasonable as well. It was just a couple of blocks off of the trail, so definitely worth the stop.

This is a small town gem. I work in Luther and am always telling people to stop here on their way back to Des Moines. They have some pretty unique flavors as well. The scotcharoo and banana split were a couple of pur favorites. I also really like the cake batter and oreo combo. They are dog friendly and have a water bowl out front for your furry friends too! Highly recommend!

Stopped after hiking at Ledges. Service was quick and polite. Was thrilled to see they had my favorite, a Kit Kat flurry. However, when I took my first bite, there was bits of caramel in it. To the best of my knowledge, there is no caramel in a Kit Kat. When I asked the person at the window, she insisted it was a Kit Kat and we were done. So, whatever I got was tasty, but it wasn't what I ordered and no attempt was made to solve my concern. Probably won't be back as either the equipment wasn't properly cleaned or the staff doesn't know what...

Such a fun experience to go for ice cream here! The atmosphere alone takes you back in time going to the ice cream parlor as a little girl! The young lady that took our order was so sweet and patient to let each of our little ones give their own order! The cafe lights, tables and umbrellas set the quaint scene! There was quite the crowd and yes we had a wait but not excessive and everyone was kind and patient. Enjoyed visiting with the crowd, everyone pleased with their...
