They sure have some creative employees there! They all seem to work well together as a team. Loved the cake how they were able to put in her name to match the writing already on there. Couldn't go inside to see cake options, but they were really good about showing me some at the drive through window.

I’ve had a couple orders, not seem like the normal way I usually receive them. Had a blizzard I basically had to mix up myself so it would look like chocolate. Think they forgot an ingredient. I worked at a DQ when I was younger so I get it. ( I did the same thing one time) Just need more training. Otherwise service is usually decently fast even when busy!

The crispy chicken salad was good, except the bacon bits were soft and seemed greasy. It may have been better without them. The triple burger was huge, and my husband ate it with a fork. The pretzel sticks didn't have much salt on them. They were very soft and buttery, but the butter made it hard for the cheese dipping sauce to stay on the pretzel. The s'mores blizzard was a nice treat for my daughter.

We were there on 2/17 at 3pm. Good impression. We had the value meals and upgraded to a Blizzard for desert. Had chicken fingers, one more piece than stated so was nice and the Classic Cheeseburger. I've had better burger, but it was good.

I’m really shocked at all the negative And 1-star reviews. The cakes have always been really well done. With a good amount of fudge and crunchies. The gentleman today was very accommodating and made my pecan mudslide (isn’t on the menu anymore) without a fuss. This is a great dq!

I ordered on the app, for some reason it didnt come over. I had to show the worker my order. The burgers were more dry than the last time and my bacon was missing. Going with 4 stars because the last burger i had was good and the employee was friendly.
