We never even realized the name was Spad's Twisters actually. Everyone just calls it Twisters. Regardless of the name, it's a nice little place to get ice cream. The location is perfect. It's right off the main drag in town, across from the library and within a 5 minute walk from Kindleberger Park (and the little league fields there). The service has always been really good. It's mostly younger people, high school age, that run the place but I have seen the occasional adult. No matter who or what age has been there, the service has always been perfect. They do have quite a large number of ways you can get your ice cream, from simple soft serve in a cup or cone, to floats or flurries or smoothies or just about anything you can think of that can be made with ice cream.
Prices aren't bad. Nothing these days seems like it's all that great of a value, but the prices aren't high enough that you feel like you're getting ripped off either. The sizes are really a lot bigger than you think they are. I used to always go there and get a medium flurry then find out, no matter how hungry I was, it was just too big for me.
All in all, the friendly and capable staff, decent prices, great selection, and excellent location do make this the place to go if you're anywhere in the...
Read morefor two days in a row I had went to twisters for ice cream yesterday on September 3, 2024. I ordered a medium Reesie cup flurry with extra Reesie cups when I got it there wasn’t really any extra Reesie cups in it and it was soupy as hell. It was not thick like it normally used to be so I let it go after paying &6.55 for it. I went today, September 4, I was the only one in line. It was the same girl that waited on me yesterday this time. I just ordered a medium reesie cup flurry without extra Reesie cups I get more Reesie cups in it this time which I’m not mad about hardly any ice cream and for paying $5.98 for an ice cream you think that you would have quite a bit in there , I’ve always liked twisters but I think I’m gonna be finding a different ice cream shop if they can’t fix it!! it’s just very disappointing because it never used to be like this. mind you these were medium both days and the quantity that you get it’s...
Read moreMy family and I ordered a root beer float, a soft serve cone, and an apple caramel sundae on Saturday afternoon. It wasn't a busy day with only a family of four in front of us and a car or two waiting in the drive-through; however, for a simple order, it took a total of 45 minutes to get all three items (two of which were exceedingly simple items) and which all came out at different times. Furthermore, when we finally received our sundae, it was half melted and tilting on its side. We didn't receive a single apology for the delay, they simply put the sundae out without even announcing it. It was clear the employees did not care at all. Very disappointing overall, and would not recommend tipping ahead of time like we did when we paid if you choose...
