Bruster's Real Ice Cream — Restaurant in South Carolina

I went to busters for a hunger a hunger that could only be sedated by a strawberry banana milkshake. Apon arrival my dreams seemed miles away with the sign only stating "milkshakes small, regular, or large" thinking the worst for my taste buds but I carried on with the notion to be strong and trust my gut as the man behind the speaker asked what my sweet tooth longed for i proclaimed "do you have strawberry banana milkshakes" to which the young man said confidently "yeah we can hook you up" I have never heard such a retort in my life but the confidence and the serenity from his voice and it reassured me that this man in fact shall "hook me up" as I approached the window with child like wonder and my taste buds all a tizzy the young man told me my price and I willingly gave him my currency to which he gave me my receipt and began working such sorcery and so steadfast that I knew deep in my soul this was going to be the best milkshake of my life I watch the young man pluck the beautiful rip red strawberries from the bowl and began slicing them to perfection as his hands moved with such poise and precision that my eyes could not comprehend but this was not all from a basket he produced a banana but not just any old banana a bananas whos peel shined like that of the sun its beautiful yellow peel glistening in the light like that of a super nova but what gave my heart a flutter was when he produced the ivory sweet and silky vanilla ice cream to which will tie in all the ingredients as the blender raced so did my heart my hands began to quiver and perspire in waiting for my STRAWBERRY BANANA MILKSHAKE for whence he produce my cup and I took it gleefully and thanked the young man for my treat but before I could leave the establishment my temptation got the better of me I took my first sip....... it was like ecstasy my mouth was enveloped with the sweet decadent taste of the ruby red strawberries but wait the was more a swirl of creamy ice cream soon joined into the harmony but as i thought this is it it was as if an explosion of unimaginable flavor hit my tounge he was the peice de la resistance the man charactor of the show of flavor the banana was so sweet and fragrant that tears began to flow like the ancient rivers of Babylon as i sat there in a trance a horn was blown knocking me out of my euphoria and I was once again in reality at which I proclaimed "this man has most certainly...

This is usually my go to place to go but after tonight I don’t know if I’ll be back. I got a cake batter milkshake which is what I always get and it was awful. It tasted very burnt or old ice cream. I’m not the type to complain but $6 and some change for a milkshake that I couldn’t even drink, I wanted either a new shake or a refund. I went up to just say that my shake didn’t taste right and the kid gave me an attitude and was pretty much like I can’t do anything for you. So I said it tastes burnt or rotten, maybe the machine isn’t working right? And he just turned round threw it in the garbage and told the guy to make a new one. I asked if I could change my flavor to chocolate incase the cake batter ice cream was just bad but after some more time I got the shake and it tasted the exact same, very burnt. My brother got his shortly after and it was so the same issue. They didn’t seem to care much that there might be an issue with their machine and they were not wearing gloves when making peoples ice cream cones after ringing people up. They used a rag to wipe the table down and then used same rag to clean up the milkshake blade. Didn’t seem very sanitary, not sure if it’s always this way. Hoping I can come back and things will be different next time, it was Mother’s Day so they were busy but we got there right...

We don’t normally go to Brusters, but the convenience of the drive thru caused us to give it a try. Definitely not worth it.

We ordered three kids sized cones and one milkshake. First, the employees let the ice cream sit in the drive thru window and melt all over the place while processing our payment. Second, the chocolate milkshake is not chocolate ice cream - it’s vanilla with chocolate syrup and was not mixed well. We were also expecting scooped ice cream, but the texture was like a whipped soft serve sort of texture (even though it wasn’t soft serve). While my husband was carefully trying to clean up my 3-year-old’s ice cream for him (because it was a melted mess from sitting out) the cone broke and fell apart because all the ice cream was on top, none inside the cone, and was a complete loss. Luckily, my 5 year old was willing to give his to his younger brother since they had the same flavor, and I gave him mine.

I never imagined I’d be getting picky about ice cream - even bad ice cream is still ice cream, right? Eh, I guess. But for $5 per person, it needs to be...
