My kids and I frequent this location often, and this latest visit with my daughter really stood out because of one of the employees. The ice cream and food were excellent, as they always are, but I especially wanted to highlight the character and presence of this particular team member. We were greeted by a gentleman named Matt (I believe that was his name per his name tag). He had a positive tone and demeanor right from the start and used classic DQ-friendly language, something along the lines of, “What kind of tasty treats can we serve you today?” which genuinely made us smile.😁
During ordering, I had a few basic requests and even changed my mind partway through. Matt normalized it completely, added some flair and positivity, and never made me feel like I was asking for too much. He was helpful, kind, and clearly enjoyed what he was doing. What stood out even more was watching how he interacted with his coworkers, friendly, respectful, and upbeat. It was refreshing to see someone who not only enjoys his job but brings that positive energy to both customers and colleagues. Great experience all around!

Went through the drive thru. Didn't get my receipt. I ordered a double cheeseburger with fries, an order of cheese curds, and a large DIET mountain dew. When I went to the window, the gal at the window gave me my food, and beverage. I noticed the beverage was brown... not the color of mountain dew in general. I also noticed once I got home that I did not get my cheese curds. Because I didn't get my receipt, I have no proof of purchase, and therefor lost out on almost $7.00, while having high blood sugar because they gave me a regular soda.
After leaving a different Dairy Queen with no food because they couldn’t find our order, we were SO happy with the expedient, friendly service the young crew at Perham DQ provided. We had a huge order as a large family, and our drinks and treats were ready by the time we were done paying, after pulling forward, our hot food was out in a couple minutes. It took us more time to get from microphone to window at the other DQ. Thanks for saving the day!

Got my food, fries were stone cold and the chicken sandwiches I received weren't made correctly, this happens way too often at the perham location
