Thought it would be nice to get some ice cream with my wife and kids after school. Little did I know that the young man in the R2D2 beaning that was working had other plans. From the second we got to the counter he had an attitude and was extremely impolite to my wife and kids. The gal behind the counter was outstanding. She gets 5 stars. He was getting upset that our 3 year old was having difficulty picking just one flavor. We were also the only people in the shop. So there wasn’t a line of people behind us. After sitting down and eating my littles were interested in the ice cream making process that they have on display. So I stood over there me talking to my boys about it. See the photo below. This guy comes running behind the counter and into my kids faces telling them to back off and get away. All while I was right there making sure nobody touched anything. This kid needs a to learn customer service ASAP.
If I see him working the next time I take my family we will happily turn around and leave. He made for a nice treat seem like we were the biggest inconvenience to his day. And to be upset about a 3 year old picking between S’mores, Chocolate Peanut Butter Oreo and just plain Chocolate is insane. All kids would have a hard time picking just one flavor for a small cone.
And the cherry on top of that is the price was $7 a scoop and the ice cream melted faster than you...
Read moreThis was my first visit to this location and I went to conduct an Interview with Owners, Joe & Jeanne, for What's Up Omaha. The first thing I noticed was the old fashioned ice cream makers at the front of the store. They still use these to create their batches.
My youngest daughter had the Snickerdoodle, my oldest daughter had Dutch Chocolate, and I mixed scoops of Green Monster(Spinach, Kiwi,Mango) and BlackBerry Pie. All were superb! The BlackBerry Pie had chunks of pie crust that were so good.
They have different daily specials to keep things exciting. With over 3,000 flavors they have quite the variety for you to experience. On a Keto diet? Don't worry, they have something for you! Vegan? Yes, they have something for you as well! They also collaborate with other local bakeries to explore new menu creations that reinvent traditional concepts like the ice cream sandwich. Their version utilizes donuts instead of the cookies that we're so used to seeing
I love supporting small business and especially ones that I can eat at. Looking forward to stopping back out with my wife so that...
Read moreNice little shop open atmosphere in the heart of Benson. We didn't realize they share the space with Big Green a food vendor and wanted to order food but that vendor was closed. Both menu boards were very large and a bit overwhelming. However that does mean they have a large variety. I came for the low carb no sugar ice cream. Problem with that was they only had one flavor it was vanilla cocunut macadamia nut.. It was good but I would have preferred something without cocunut. But with no other options that was my only choice. We also ordered a waffle cone and sundae of their regular ice cream. Nothing to really rave about. One scoop cost $4.99 and 2 scoops $5.49 they do go up to 4 scoops. It was a bit pricey in my opinion but a nice treat. I gave 3 stars because I asked for a second scoop and instead of just charging a .50 difference they charged me $4.99 again but I guess what do I expect ...they have teenagers working there. I won't be back anytime soon $24 and change for 3 ice cream treats not that...
