“I highly recommend Black Cat Ice Cream! They have a lot of unique homemade ice cream flavors that are creative and seasonably appropriate. It’s a fun experience with the ice cream options and the atmosphere in the shop and outdoor seating options. I’ve tried their scoops of ice cream, and the ice cream nuggets dipped in fudge. It doesn’t matter what I get, so far I’ve been happy with my selections each time. If you love ice cream and are looking for something fun and unique, this is the place for you!“
“We just catered Cinnaholic for our wedding in August and LOVED them. We had the mini cinnamon rolls & cookie dough for our desserts. Shane sat down with us to go over our options and have a taste testing as well. The options were endless and the set up crew did amazing as well. Would highly recommend Cinnaholic for desserts for any event you may have in the future.“
“I'm a hop snob, growing my own hops on trellises in southwest Iowa. Been a huge fan of Sierra Nevada, Stone, and Laughing Dog. When I encountered Confluence's Des Moines IPA - Double Dry Hopped, it instantly became my number one. What a perfect balance of subtle but not overwhelming sweetness with a crisp wet hoppiness that doesn't overwhelm. Getting this balance right is insanely tough.Got to tour Confluence and was even more of a fan. What a fantastic operation, with a passion for innovation. They may be Iowa's best microbrewery but I'm telling my boys at Sierra Nevada, you've got one hell of a competitor nipping at your heels!Confluence is a beer you can be proud of drinking, for its taste, its innovation, and its commitment to its communities.“
“I hosted my husband's 50th birthday party at the Station, and their back room was having the Nightmare on Ingersol, so they had some tables reserved for us. We ended up with more than the tables would hold, and they did an amazing job of getting to people quickly, and made the night great, from the 8 year old, to the birthday boy with some people getting food, and getting drinks to everyone. Many thanks to you!“
“I came here expecting to only be served malts, but contrary to the name, they offer much more than just that! Various ice cream novelties, bottled water, and napkins are served for prices that adjust with inflation. They even serve puppy cones, that's just another reason why I wish I was a dog! There was no indoor seating, but I guess that's how they keep their ice cream recipe secret from the public. My go-to order is a turtle sundae without the nuts and caramel, it's a state of ice cream rapture!“
“The food! The food! We have been here multiple times and tried several dishes. They have all been delicious beyond words and filling! I don’t drink beer so I wish they had more cocktails, which are premixed. But the food makes up for it!“
“I have been a customer here for years. I love Peace Tree and their East Village location is amazing. Friendly, welcoming staff who are dedicated to making sure your experience is a good one. Lots of fun activities and events! Top quality beers.“
“My lulu and I really enjoyed paws and pints. It was a bit overwhelming at first but he always takes a little bit to adjust and get comfortable. Make sure to download the app and vaccine records before you get there. Had a couple cold ones and a few hours in the sun“
“Last week was my 1st time here, but the staff treated me like an old friend. & the pizza was amaaazing. While waiting for my food, there was a little girl who was dancing & fell (she was alright). The staff were very kind to her & even gave her a big cookie to have for dessert!“
“The food was excellent! I had the short-rib tacos and would definitely get those again. It's a fun environment, family friendly. We waited a long time for a server to arrive but otherwise the service was fine. The drinks are okay. I would recommend this place for the great food.“
“This is such a great meeting spot right in the heart of Beaverdale. I love that they also have locally made gifts and cards. Definitely a place to check out for your caffeine fix (they have a drive thru if you are in transit) or need a meeting spot for work or social..... today I saw a small knitting group!“
“~*Sprockets is a cool vibe. It’s a sports bar type atmosphere. The breakfast was pretty good. I tried the dish and grits. I’ve enjoyed beverages as well. I love the owners and a couple of the girls who bartend. They have made my experience there super fun. They make some fun cocktails as well. Jamie is the vibe for it!*~Parking: It’s always been plenty of parking and easy.“
“Was meeting a couple friends from work & decided this place looked fun & had decent reviews. Nice looking place with a lot of seating. I thought the prices seemed very fair for the amount of food you get, and the food was good. Waiter wasn't unfriendly, but not super friendly on the same note. Just had that mood like he didn't want to be there, but got the job done.The arcade was nice, but more for kids than adults, in my opinion. It was fun to play some retro arcade games & pinball though. The play cards were nice, instead of putting cash in the game every time. Seems you build points on the card, instead of receiving tickets. It is handy, but kind of confusing at times when you check balances on the card. Yep, I'm old & not up on todays tech, and I'm okay with that. Still a nice place and would visit again for the food.Parking: Doubt it was the businesses fault, but parking lot was a pain, due to all the snow. It was hard to get around the aisles due to snow banks at the south end of the aisles. Mall service who cleans the lot, could've pushed the snow further back. Wound up parking a ways away instead of messing around with that tight spaced area. Good news is, when the snow melts, won't be an issue.“
“We had a wonderful experience! The food was delicious! The staff was very accommodating and attentive. I don’t eat sausage but really wanted the biscuits and chicken that had a sausage gravy on it. Our waitress noticed the cooks had a batch they had started to make of the gravy and asked if they could put some aside before they add the sausage! This is the kind of service we are lacking and need more of! Thank you for such a great experience and out of this world great tasting food!“
“I had been eyeing this place for a while & was so excited to try it out. We were met with a nice atmosphere, quick service & delicious food + beer! The food was delivered ridiculously fast & we enjoyed the 5oz beer option as we were able to try more of what Lua has to offer.“
