    I have been to to imlay City dairy Queen numerous times since the new owners took over. The ice cream is nothing like it used to be. It's not chilled enough it's runny. It's like they pump air into it. The staff is very rude. Can't even understand what they're saying. If you live in America, you should be able to speak English. Just my thoughts

    This place is ok. Not the best DQ; one in Lapeer is definitely better. The food is okay, ice cream is pretty good, service is meh. The people are not rude or anything, they are mostly nice, but they get our orders wrong and are not very helpful. My husband and I both agree we will probably not be back to this location; we can go to Lapeer or a different restaurant/fast food place in Imlay.

    We were the only people there and it took 5 minutes for anyone to come to the counter to wait on us. Then we waited for 20 min for 2 simple meals. When they finally brought out our food, they said they had no cocktail sauce for our shrimp meal. The only thing they would do was offer another kind of sauce. When I asked why they didn’t say that when I ordered, they just shrugged their shoulders. When I asked if I could get something else instead, all I got was a disinterested eye roll- no other offer to make it right. We gave up and took the food and left. Needless to say, we will not be stopping there again!

    Drove over to DQ at 9:15pm, and they were already closed and the parking lot was empty, even though it says 10pm is their alleged closing time- I seen on their door. It says nine but Google says otherwise so somebody needs to fix that because while I was there trying to figure out where else to go three other vehicles tried to come through the drive-through hoping to order.
