Customer Reviews

Can?t say enough great things about this cute new spot in town. Great selection of ice cream flavors, delicious donuts, clean, cool hand painted mural on the wall, an owner as sweet as the treats he sells? Great addition to Dell Rapids!

Donut holes are super good but the donuts are okay. They didn?t know what the long jon filling was. The coffee isn?t good at all, got a mocha and it was very water down. Was also charged for a 2 blended coffees when I just got ice coffee and a blended. Was very disappointed in the coffee. Ice cream is really good tho!

Dell Rapids needed a gem like this, I felt like a kid again, with all of the different pastries! And the donut holes are so amazingly good!

Awesome staff. Good selection of ice cream and pastries. It makes me think of the old school ice cream shops. I will definitely be back.
