    ⭐ 1 out of 5 Stars Unprofessional Staff, Poor Service, and Mediocre Food I recently visited this Dairy Queen location, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from start to finish. The biggest issue was the lack of professionalism from the staff. More than half of the employees visibly had an attitude — not just disinterested, but annoyed to be working at all. The energy at the counter was tense, and it carried over to the customers waiting to order. I genuinely felt bad for the cashier assisting me. She seemed overwhelmed, not because she didn’t care, but because she was trying to do her job without proper training or support. Instead of one experienced employee calmly guiding her, multiple coworkers began giving directions at the same time, which only made things more confusing and uncomfortable for everyone in line. It was frustrating to watch, and it clearly stressed her out further. The food itself did little to make up for the unpleasant service. Everything we ordered tasted mediocre at best — nowhere near what Dairy Queen is normally known for. Quality was lacking, and nothing seemed made with care. Overall, the combination of disorganized management, negative staff attitudes, and below-average food makes this location not worth the time or money. I hope the management team takes steps to improve staff training, teamwork, and customer service, because right now, I will not be returning to this location. A simple improvement in attitude and support could make a big difference, but until then, I cannot recommend this Dairy Queen.

    Great Food and decently nice service, but my father told me that there was an advertisement if that they didn't flip ice cream when they gave it to you, will get a free ice cream. They never flipped the ice cream, tasted great don't get me wrong, but I mean the advertisement literally says that.
