It’s been there for longer than I’ve been alive! It’s reliable in providing the neighborhood sweet treats and jobs for teens! Many people in the community finish off their day with a soft serve here. My favorite place for soft serve.

Peanut butter shakes are to die for!! You MUST try at least once and you MUST get a large as no other size will do.

An outdoor location serving just the frozen dessert items, like Blizzards and Dilly Bars, not lunch or dinner items. Open during the warmer months. The Starkiss bars and Arctic Rushes are good non-dairy options.

I went to this particular Dairy Queen so my friend could get a triple berry smoothie for her daughter. The staff were friendly enough - but on 6/27/2020, with our nation and the Cedar Rapids metro area still concerned about COVID-19, NONE OF THEM WORE MASK OR GLOVES!! Not the cashier and more importantly, not the people making the treats. I watched through the side window as one employee held crumbles of Blizzard ingredients on the spoon with her UNGLOVED hand as she scooped. Wish Id had my phone in my pocket to take a picture for proof. SO DISAPPOINTED, and Ill be avoiding this location in the foreseeable future.

Rude.A older gentleman and my family were just rudely turned away because dairy queen closed early for tge second time already this year. The man wanted a buster bar and we wanted 5 fruit smoothies, but they refused to stay. open because they ran out of vanilla ice cream. What about chocolate ice cream? What about ice creaam cakes? What about all the other things we couldve ordered. This is disappointing and Im wonder8ng if I should srop ordering from here.

This is the best Dairy Queen in all of Cedar Rapids. This is also the only one that still offers a snickers blizzard. Their ice cream cones are nice sized and look just like the ads. Unlike some of the other locations that have cones that look like a surrealist painting.

Its too bad your employees dont know your store hours. We pulled into the parking lot at 9:28pm, start walking up to the window, and they turn off the open sign!! Thats ok. Orange Leaf was more than happy to have our business.

Review №54

The workers here always fail to make me feel welcomed or leave with a good taste in my mouth. Not only is their way of greeting an annoyed Inconvient-like welcome, but rarely do I even hear thank you or anything slightly above the most minimum customer service. I now dread coming to this DQ (the closets one to me) because I know how my entire visit there is going to go, and unfortunately its a usual outing for me and my family. Although there are a few older women who work here, the entire group of employees I encounter act similar to a high school cliche of snobby rude teens. all of these women old or young surpass the age of acting in this apauling snarky manor. Everyone should know how to treat a Customer at this Dairy Queen. People come there all day to enjoy the season and its a well known thing to do in my area of Cedar Rapids. These women or girls should not be acting as tho we interrupted their texting nor make you feel bad for having them do work. I swear Im one rolling of the eyes or a no thank you away from really figuring out the next step to get whoever is in charge to step it up! Like who is evaluating these employees? I dont know if they are all too comfortable or bored with their job there that they want to make costomers feel and leave with the same negativity they seem to have 100% of the time, but i and a lot of other regulars, are just sick of it. I just want to go get my favorite ice cream and not have to question whether they would purposely mess with my drink, not get the feeling they are going to talk about me as I leave, and most fu****g importantly be greeted with the worlds easiest customer service tactic: A SMILE. I have never onced complain here only have slightly shown my frustration through looks, so I know comfortably there is nothing I could do as a customer to change this behavior.
