You're in for a treat with a retro vibe and a huge variety of flavors, making it a must-visit for anyone looking for a fun ice cream experience!
Great ice cream, super-cool atmosphere! They have so many flavors to choose from, even dairy and gluten-free options! A very inviting place, and the antique decor makes me feel like I'm in an old-school diner. The line moves super quick, and I had the best milkshake of my life! I will definitely be coming here again. They even have another location on the Luther College campus that is open to the public that offers coffee, sandwiches, and ice cream! A hidden gem, for sure.

With personalized attention and helpful resources, this spot makes exploring dining options a breeze for everyone.
I would like to send a thank you to Becky for being such a caring person. I recently found out that I have celiac disease and was unsure what I could order to eat. Becky gave me several options, and went out of her way to come find me in the restaurant, sit down, and share a pamphlet with me on gluten free options. Thank you, Becky, you are a wonderful person.

Enjoy a delicious sandwich on a tasty gluten-free bun, perfect for refueling after a long day of exploring.
Excellent gluten free bun with my sandwich and great potato salad. Much appreciated after a long day traveling. Our waiter, he goes to Luther, was so nice. TY
