House of Flavors — Restaurant in Winchester

This is the local gem that you would likely not go to if you were just jusging it by the outside appearance. I was fortunate to have some Locals cue me in on this great little place. House of Flavors is a converted mechanic shop turned restaurant with some of its history still present. There is about a driveway’s worth of parking in the front and people just park however they can. When you go in, you find that the food is cooked with love and delicious. The people, staff and locals, are tops and make you feel at home. Everybody knows everybody. While I was clearly an outsider, they made me feel welcome too. My favorite part however is the Blessing Board. You can buy ice cream for someone and they put that persons name on a colored sticky note, which then goes on the Blessing Board. You have to walk by this board when you come in, so if you see your name there, you know someone was thinking of you and bought you some Ice cream. By the way, one scoop of ice cream is huge as you can see from my pictures. That, friends, is a reflection of all that is good in Small...

I visited "House of Flavors" on the Sunday before Mother's Day and again on Mother's Day to surprise my Mother--in--Law with an ice cream treat! The first Sunday, I ordered each of us a hot fudge sundae with a scoop of peanut butter topping! Since I already knew she dislikes whipped cream and wasn't sure if she'd like nuts, I just asked for a cherry on hers! My sundae had extra whipped cream and extra cherries without nuts! On Mother's Day, I surprised her with another Hot Fudge Sundae but, I added a brownie to each of our sundaes along with the scoop of peanut butter topping, pecans, and a cherry! Extra whipped cream and cherries on mine! Both times our sundaes were incredibly delicious with ample toppings and were huge for medium sized treats! So huge, we skipped supper both Sunday evenings! I've decided I'm going to return every Sunday and keep up our new tradition! FYI--Surprisingly, these sundaes haven't been fattening so drive, run, or walk to "House of Flavors" for your ice cream treat soon! You...

Always a fan of visiting small ice cream shops. This shop isn’t affiliated with the “House of Flavors” in Michigan. This shop also doesn’t make their own ice cream so that’s a let down.

The “sugar free” ice cream isn’t technically “sugar free” or “no sugar added” and when I asked about it the staff argued it didn’t have any artificial sweetener in it. However in my research the ice cream contains sucralose an artificial sugar the body can’t break down.

Eat the ice cream with sugar! You’re not doing any good for your health by eating the sugar free.

The place was clean, and has been around for many many years. Their kitchen is small along with their working space. The fish comes in frozen and isn’t fresh.

The tenderloins are probably okay… again not fresh.

The ice cream was okay, we got the turtle but it didn’t taste like it. That was a disappointment.

Pricing was a bit on the high side for 2 cones. About $9

Probably won’t visit again but only due to not being in...
