If you haven't been to the square, don't worry, it's not San Francisco. You won't have to worry about dirty syringes or human waste. It is, however some flaming assortment of trendy weirdos, occasional homeless people, lawyer types, college kids and some vain THOTS. Try to avoid making eye contact them, they could be SJW's or Hillary supporters. You will know by the dull eyes and smug look of self satisfaction. Big warning signs is the brightly colored hair. If you are wearing Trump apparel, you know what to do. Give them the Nicholas Sandmann smirk as they attempt to shout at you then make sure you stop by Hattie Jane's Creamery for some of their fine ice cream.

The ice cream quality is top notch. The variety is not as big as you would expect but they do have a few flavors unique to them (as far as I know). They also have quite an assortment of flavored beverages and ice cream themed drinks, shakes, etc. So many choices, you will feel overwhelmed and spoiled.

Its not super hipster trendy so there is no worries about some bearded guy telling you the store was better before it got mainstream, as he tries to pass a flyer for his/her awful band but you might see some dingbats on the square posting pictures to Instagram, so keep the pepper spray close at hand if you want to nail of them.

Hattie Jane's has a rewards program and its worth it. 5 visits and you get a free scoop if ice cream. ...

The staff gave us difficulty and attitude because we asked for cups with lids as we were traveling back to the house with our order after dinner. Here's how it went: me: "can we get 7 single scoops to go and do you have lids? We are traveling back to the house with it." Associate: "We don't have lids for the single cups, only the next size up" me: "can we just get the next size cup that has a lid?" Crickets....., blank stares, and a suggestion from the associate to give us a drink holder for our open container single cups. I get it, there is a cost associated with a larger cup and I am willing to pay it but the willingness to offer us an alternate solution was lackluster and presented with very poor customer service. We couldn't believe how stumped they were over this.

Maybe add a $0.25 cup upcharge button to the POS system so this doesn't happen in the future?

Long story short...we ended up with the kids asking for the ice cream they had to look at on the way back to the car, melted ice cream all over the back of the car, the locals we were visiting will not be back, and it will not be on my list of to do items as it was this time for our next vacation here.

Update: the owner reached out with apologies and reasoning. Appreciate the...
