I do prefer the DQ up north a little more, its so loud at this location- they always get our order wrong but I think its because they have such a hard time hearing us order. the ice cream is just bland vanilla, or white I should say cuz I don't think there's actually any vanilla in it. my daughter buys into the toppings, But I do not.

Ahh, good old Dairy Queen! I have always thought that their soft serve is the richest and most pleasing. The Torrington stand never disappoints. Fast service at the walk-up window right off the sidewalk. Easy to park in their parking lot. There are no burgers, hot dogs, or other complications here. Just great cones, sundaes, blizzards, and other ice cream treats. Many happy faces are seen here. They close every year in the winter but return around St Patrick's Day.

Outdoor pickup and eat in your car mostly. Ice Cream is very good. Service was excellent ? For being in the city they do have some parking spaces. We go often.

Good place to cool off on a warm day with friendly staff.

Who doesn't love a peanut buster parfait ? Quick service and walk up window Not much for ambiance since it's a walk up Dairy Queen but I can't post this review unless I mention it...

Not a store, just a window. I love that you can get a mini size which is plenty for me. A bit pricey though.. $4.75 for a small smoothie. Would go back when in the area.

Typically come here atleast once a month when it's open, and almost never have a problem.Tonight, was different.We come here as a treat, and usually order 2 XL blizzards that I will separate out between my wife and I, and our 4 kids. We usually get 4 additional cups, and 4 additional spoons for the sake of it all looking the same (my son once complained that our cups look different than his when we just scooped some of the blizzard into a cup of ours).There was a new guy working there that I haven't seen before. I assume he is the owner.He told me that they would have to charge me 50 cents each, for the cups w/spoons. This is the first time I have been informed there was a charge, which fine, whatever.They tried giving me the clear plastic sundae cups, which doesn't look like a blizzard, so there is no point in me getting those ones. I asked to make sure I received the blizzard cups instead, and the guy who informed me that there was be a charge, then informed me "we normally don't give these ones out, but we will do it this time).1. This is clearly not true, as I always get the additional blizzard cups.2. They are charging me a total of $2, for 4 empty cups and spoons.3. I didn't get a spoon for one of the XL blizzards, so had to make due with a normal spoon (which aren't long enough).The total cost was $19.Next time the kids ask about getting blizzards from DQ, I'll instead go down to the local grocery store, and buy a few quarts things of ice cream for much cheaper, and call it a night. Very disappointed.
Great icecream, and the employees are great.Fair pricing!Update 8/24/2022:The icecream is still as good as ever. It's an easy stop and go, when you want to fill your ice cream hole. ;-)

Torrington DQ is the best of all Dairy Queen’s!!!! I travel to local DQs and order the cheesecake blizzard with extra cheesecake very frequently and this DQ gets it spot on everytime ?? Always a great amount, consistent and nice staff!

Ive been going here on and off since i was a child. Still the same love the small vibe, always friendly staff. Its unfortunate though that they cant make the previous years specials. Not knocking them just wish i could have had my smores blizzard this year lol.
