Dairy Queen — Restaurant in Yellowhill Community

My husband and I tried going yesterday (Tuesday) at 9:22pm for a blizzard. They were closed, even though Google Maps says they were supposed to close at 10pm.

Then, on Wednesday I went by myself (still hunting for a Blizzard) and decided to go to the restroom first. I walk in and there’s a woman sitting on the toilet with the door wide open. She’s apologizing because she’s having to change her 1 yr old baby in her lap! This restaurant doesn’t have any child changing tables! That’s ridiculous!

It’s 2019 and this Dairy Queen couldn’t provide a changing table? This is an establishment where you want to take your kids! They should expect kids of all ages! Not providing a changing table for any parent (Mother/Father) is laziness and thoughtless on this restaurant’s part!

Oh! But I haven’t gotten to my part in this story. I tried to use one of the stalls. The door wouldn’t close. It was half open and I tried and tried to close it but it wouldn’t budge! I ended up just using the toilet with women coming in and out of the restroom as I sat there. Embarrassing!

Okay! Here’s what made me NOT stay and order the Blizzard I was craving...I went to the sink to wash my hands—There’s NO SOAP! Women were just using the faucet but not using soap! I had sanitizer in my purse and used that. But there was NO WAY I was going to go out to the register and order a Blizzard from a restaurant that didn’t have soap! How did the women workers wash there hands? There’s a sign saying “All employees must wash hands,” but there’s no way they were following proper sanitation without soap!

I left without giving it another thought! Please, go to the restroom before you attempt to eat here. Make sure they have soap! You don’t want to wonder what is swimming on your food if they don’t utilize proper...

Can I give this Dairy Queen a Zero review please! After reading the other 1star reviews I now understand why our visit was so disgusting! It was Saturday night so I would understand it being busy but we only saw two tables of customers and no line to order. A couple employees who weren't taking our order or fixing our shake were standing around talking. I understand taking a break if it had been busy prior but at some point they shiuld have been in the bathrooms cleaning. To start the bathrooms were seriously the most filthy I've ever seen, made me sick! On top of the filth there was no toilet paper, trash cans flowing onto the floor, a toilet leaking with mold and no soap to wash hands. In the eating area they had done some mopping and had just left the dirty mop water bucket ontop of a table where people eat. When I told them they needed to clean their bathrooms a girl giggled and whispered in a coworkers ear. In the end our shakes were not creamy but had unblended ice in them. There are bricks outside where the seating area is that are coming apart, someone could easily hurt themselves. The posted rating was A/94 done in Jan 2019. Don't know how that happened. It's obvious to me whoever own/manages this place doesn't care at all, it's just about the money they're making. We will never go again and I encourage anyone who cares about your health and cleanliness to never go. I will make attempts to contact corporate, of course we weren't given a...

Will be OPEN ALL WINTER!!!! If you're like that pretty little Dutch girl with her kids arriving in civilization after traversing through the Greatest State Park of Appalachi on HWY 441 and it's 10:25 pm, pleasant sky's and horizontal plains with the Okanaluftee(sp) River calmly guiding YOU WILL BE OVERWHELMED with tears of joy, bliss and redemption. God only knows how happy the kids were. Man, I was happy two! Or too. The (2) for $5.00 is easy to miss. I can assure you the kids had their EYES on the REST OF THE MENU!!! DQ. Dairy Queen. DQ! NO matter how you say it, but if you were born in South Carolina in 1965 - DQ meant ANOTHER STATE and Far From Home. Quite a few of us probably had no words for it when the Church Bus or Youth Services vehicle or van PERMITTED us to "order something you like?!?" What? Did you just say I could . . . . You're not in Kansas anymore Goldilocks, Gretyl or Hannah (Barbara.) And I didn't fly up here on a jet plane, Greyhound or InterTube. I'm in a Dodge, but I know a little something about walking. TWO ORIGINAL CHEESEBURGERS (and a complimentary fry from the staff of DAIRY QUEEN before closing) let me know I am right at home at the HISTORIC NEWFOUND LODGE among other PRECIOUS GEMS!!!!!! on this opening of North Carolina, USA, Cherokee. It is August 2023. The sixth. Thank...
