“great ice cream! but service… idkthe manager or person in charge (who seemed to be a college student like me) the day i went in was a little grouchy.i have a friend with a nut allergy and we asked to just use clean scoops when making our ice cream sundae. the cashier said they could do that, but after we were ringed up the manager/person in charge as well as some other workers seemed upset at our order and said that they normally don’t do that. we were like “uhh ok should we change the order?” but they sort of begrudgingly huffed and said they would do it.she also got upset at the cashier who ringed us bc he was new to the job and apparently should have said no to us being able to purchase a sundae given the nut allergy :( hope he’s doing okDietary restrictions: didn’t have a great experience with them in regards to a nut allergy. we said we could change our order but they ended up being kinda passive aggressive and agreeing to do our order. i also overheard the workers gossiping about our order and also scolding the cashier that allowed us to order the sundae we got.“

“Their ice cream is the BEST! This is a small family run ice cream shop and their flavors are outstanding. They don't skimp on sizes. When you ask for one scoop it's a Huge scoop. They have cute picnic tables outside and bean bag toss and things for kids. It's a great place on a summer night!“

The Chocolate cream pie is the very very best I’ve ever had. ‘My grandson Ethan and I so enjoy it! Thank you Renee! Hugs…. ♥️“

“I have eaten at this DQ since I can remember. It is just down from the college (Eastern Connecticut University) and quite popular with the college crowd as well as all the team sportsters who stop by to get a bite after a game. I do love the Blizzrds- but they seem to stick to me and I've been a cone small -onl y for a while here. The staff is well trained, friendly and quick at their jobs. A friend of mine was visiting from mid NewHampshire and as we approached he said this will be hours -- I usually give r up---- but he was amazed at the quick and accurate service. Kudos to a well run operation“

“This place is greatThe people are great The milk is the freshest you'll ever getAs is the meat - no ink dyes or fillersThe ice cream is top notch ( if you like smoother ice creams without huge chunks ) Wish they had butter more oftenBut I think it just sells out quickly Ill buy my dairy from them over a store forever more“

“Ive never in my life experienced service like this. Man unfolded box in less than a second. (shocked me) I stumbled over my words (was lowkey flustered). Before I could look down from the menu the box was already constructed before my eyes. Shellshocked, I mistakenly ordered a peanut butter cookie (was garbage) it was very dry but I looked past it because of the workers love for the game. Other cookies were good I guess idk my date left me with cold scraps (Basically outer corners of every cookie) I did eat them up bad would suggest them to be dined upon warm. This place was gas gas gas! XOXO cheers mate!“

“For a fast food place, food would be as expected. Staff was very friendly, and their attitudes made being in there enjoyable, even with you being inside only a few minutes. Service, as of the two days I stopped in, was fast, faster than service I typically get from the other location.“

“The food is great! the mushroom swiss burger is excellent, good flavor on the burgers and the crispy onions add some nice depth. The fries were also good they had more of a classic potatoey fry.The wait during the night was longer around 15-25 minutes but it was reasonable with the amount of orders and it went by fairly quickly.“

“The Farmer's Cow Cafe & Creamery is a Windham staple. Situated just outside the Willimantic board, leading into Mansfield. The all-natural beauty offers great ice cream made from local real ingredients. Stop by for some tasty treats or a small bite. The creamery offers sandwiches, soft-served, shakes, eggs, milk, and much more. The inside is small and the line can get packed quickly. But there is an outdoor option where one can sit and enjoy the day. The service was decent and the wait was minimal. Overall 8/10!“
