    The strawberry cheesecake sundae was very delicious, and the strawberry blizz that my partner got was also yummy, but they were a bit pricier than we would like.

    Great soup and good ice cream. Good customer service. However. the bread should be warmed.

    The chocolate moose used to be the best place for ice cream but the service gets worse every time I go back. Earlier this week my husband and I tried to go and get some ice cream and there was a huge line forming and no staff to be seen anywhere, it aas a ghost town behind the counter. We ended up leaving and decided to not even try to go back. I get that its IU classes are out and maybe there is short staff, but someone should be at the register or there should at least be a bell to get staffs attention. Sad I didnt get to show my husband how tasty the ice cream is.
