A good burger combo, clean dining room, and friendly service. I've enjoyed many a "Dairy" product through the years, especially the Blizzards, but the food is good too.

Awesome and consistent customer service from a fast food place especially in the area!! They make your food as if it were their own. Been going since I was a kid back when I would get my free ice cream using my honor role coupon! Just want to update and say again that they have some of the most consistent customer service in the area. I thought my blizzard looked incorrect but with a good attitude he reassured me that it was, and if I tried it and still didn't think so he would remake it. He was right, it was correct. And I appreciate the good attitude!

This was a great experience, there was loud traffic, that musky odor, and cow patties lying around tar floor! i love how this restaurant truly enraptures the nature of my home country, Pakistan, props to the chef, made my banana split just how its meant to be made, i liked it when the chef split my banana with his toenail, the "armpit" sauce was impeccable! DO NOT REDEEM IT SAAR

Ordered a Blizzard cake for my birthday. Turning 23. I requested a cat face on the top. I said it didn't have to be good, they said they would do their best. They did the most! Shout out to Miss Dee!

I have been a dairy queen fan my enjoy life! Stopped by because I was hungry for a banana split and was very please that it tastes just like it always has in my memory. Used the drive thru and was greeted with smiles and courtesy.

Im actually shocked this place has a 4.1 because it’s actually really good! The tenders are fresh and the fries are popping and the shakes or BANGIN!!!!!!! This place should at least be a 4.5. Everybody is very nice there and work hard. Especially for having a low staff. I’m just saying this is the way to go! “(Disclaimer!”) I’ve never eaten inside, it’s always drive through!

We stopped by here after our son’s marine corps graduation this week and the staff could not have been more friendly. The food was served hot and fast and we had never seen a blizzard as loaded as the ones we had here. I honestly wish we had a reason to go back to this part of the country just to order another. Hands down the best fast food we had during the week we spent in Beaufort S.C.

New owners, fantastic service. Fresh food prepared quickly! Who can argue with cherry dilly bars? Very quick to inquire about services provided and made any issue right if there was an actual issue. Very kind and family friendly atmosphere. If you happen to be in the area, stop and support the local business owner and get a wonderful ice cream. This has become our favorite place to stop when in the area!
