The chocolate chip dough malt is to die for. Served in a mason jar. It is the BEST!

Ice cream was good, shake was creative and very tasty. Snowcones were not very flavorful. We may try the fancy snowcones next time to see if they are better. Plain ones didn't have much flavor, not enough syrup.

Every time we come to this place, we always get great snow cones and ice cream. The snow cones are never lacking on their syrup (In fact the opposite, there was a little too much syrup), and the ice cream is definitely of good quality.
