A nice ice cream place. Good sized scoops and a large selection of flavors. Sadly its open seasonally, but its completely understandable. Always looking forward to the on-season. No interior seating, but a covered patio as well as grassy picnic table seating. A good place to bring the kids or the well-behaved dog!
This ice cream place is located in Clinton Tennessee. My brother took myself, my daughter, my sister in law and other brother here after we came from the pizza place. Ice cream was delicious and had many flavors to choose from. It was Mayfield Ice cream they Served. Place was busy all the time, cars coming and going. They also serve food there like hamburgers, chicken tenders, fries, onion rings. Definitely a place to go for ice cream. Wait wasnt too terribly long.
Closes way too early. That’s my only complaint. Closing Labor Day weekend is crazy. They would get good business still for awhile.Good food and ice cream but gotta wait til next year to get more.
We’ve only gone for ice cream. Staff are super friendly. Ice cream is delicious. Prices are reasonable. Fun place to go for dessert. It’s usually busy but worth the wait.
Our Families Absolute Fave Place For A Sweet Treat🍦🍧😋 Especially The Futternutternana Shake!!! 🥤👍 Always Great Service & A Happy Smiling Staff Thats Happy To Help & Serve. Highly Recommend To Anyone That Hasnt Yet Had The Pleasure ☺️P. SMy Kiddos Are Anxious For The Day We Bring Our Dog Snoop Dogg For A Pup Cup!! 🐾🍨
Best ice cream ever! The smoky mountain fudge is my favorite no other ice cream comes close. Love that you can order more than normal amount of scoops!
This is the best off the beaten path MORE than an ice cream stop. They have homemade burgers and chicken strips and definitely try their Bacon cheeseburger!!! 5 stars!
Visited the Chunky Monkey for the first time today. Carol and I had their cheeseburgers and they were AWESOME. Their burgers BEAT all the other local fast food places.. The ice cream and malt was also great. We will be going back. Drop in and get something.
Hands down best cheeseburger in the area. Do yourself a favor and hit this place up you wont be disappointed and definitely wont leave hungry. Super great service. Fast and efficient. Prices cant be beat. You have a a return customer in me.
Such yummy treats! My only complaint is sometimes they are out of what I want, but... covid & distribution make this completely understandable.
Fresh and hot food, made to order. Pretty tasty too! Little pricey: 1 double cheeseburger, 1 double hamburger, 1 fry, 1 onion ring and 1 iced tea is $29. The burger patties were thick and good. We would pay it and eat there again :)
Delicious icecream and friendly service. Will definitely go back again!🙂
Very good grilled cheese on Texas Toast.. onion rings were excellent! Chili cheese dog and fries were very good too.. loved the Choc Malt!
We own a business right down the road from them and can only eat pizza so many times a week lol. So when I dont feel like eating my pizza I go check out Chunky Monkey and I always get the burgers which are always delicious. Recently tried there hot dogs which are amazing as well. Today I tried the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich which was also amazing. If you havent tried there food yet, you are defiantly missing out.
Be real careful if you go here. I stopped in today for the first time and paid with my debit card. Total was $5.29. Saw on my bank statement just now that they charged me $7.21. I called and the lady said it automatically puts a tip on there and she said she probably should have told me. Yeah, right. I wont be going back just on principle. Thats just not right. Buyer beware.
Great job!! Happy kids loved their ice cream! Food smelled amazing our next visit we will definitely order food as well!!
The hamburgers are delicious as are the fries. All of their ice cream options are amazing!!! Definitely worth the trip.
Only had two shakes. A benefit is the use Mayfield Ice Cream. We will return for food at another time.
Love the Big Fizz! Everything else is great too! Hope the pandemic closures no longer affect the monkey!
Great place for ice cream. Burger was also very good.
Yummy ice cream and food. Great service
First time there i ordered a burger and fries i was sooo good lol one of my favorite places now
Old fashioned banana splits, or your favorite blast, or just a scoop of your favorite ice cream. Nice serving sizes and welcoming hospitality makes it a favorite of the locals.
Always love this place! Great ice cream, creative sundaes, and love that they offer the pup cups!
Great people, great place and good ice cream and milkshakes. Trying there food on next visit
Very friendly place!! Generous portions of ice cream and so delicious!!
Will be returning customers food and dessert was amazing staff was polite highly reccomend
Got the best cheeseburger and ff and of course all the icecream milkshakes and banana splits are the great
We love this little .... sometimes very busy place,.... its the perfect stop for something sweet or just good to eat
This place was cool as heck and loved the ice cream almost bought a t short we liked it so much
Its not a fast fast food the cook everything fresh but I think its well worth well worth it
Little pricy, but a awesome place to get all kinds of ice cream.
This place is great. Easy, quick service. Lots of options for food and ice cream. Prices arent ridiculous. You definitely get your moneys worth here.
It was National Ice Cream Day and we decided to stop on our 6 hr drive and get some ice cream. We searched on Google Maps and this place popped up. It was easy to get to. The ice cream was yummy. It is a great little old fashioned road side stand. They also sell burgers and such.
Fantastic banana split!. Friendly staff
Hamburgers were great, so was the drys, will be going back
The chunky monkey has great food and great ice cream!!!
The best place for everyone to go
Dang good milkshake.
Excellent business! Goes above and beyond for community!
Cute little ice cream stand, a local gem!
Great ice cream!
Best burger and ice cream yes please some!
They have great milkshakes! The hamburgers and fries were great too! Love the small town feel of the Chunky Monkey. Definitely recommend.
Best ice cream around if they would stay open later instead of closing so early for the season it would be great . If there not going to be open more during the year they might as well just close down.
A nice ice cream in no where
Great little find here. Good burgers and fantastic ice cream. They use all fresh, never frozen, beef and it shows. One of those places you get a lot of bang for your buck. Will absolutely be stopping by here again if Im ever in the area. Perfect for those summer evenings for grabbing ice cream and a burger and hanging out at the picnic tables.
Excellent burgers great service and atmosphere
I ordered a sundae that ended up as mostly whipped topping. We may give it one more chance, but there are much better options at lower price points and much higher quality options at the same price point or slightly higher.Based on this experience, there is nothing special about this place other than its close to Andersonville and Norris.
I bought an ice cream there cookie dough with strawberry and ice cream for my family it was pretty good but when i looked at my receipt i saw a 5 dollar tip i never issued they never told me about a tip it was automatically issued it was a 20% tip they should inform you about what your paying for
I came to this place twice to get banana splits. The first time there were no toppings but there was some sort of maple sauce. I made them aware of this and they agreed to remake the banana split. However after waiting a while I was advised the soft serve machine was down so I was unable to get the dessert. The next time there were no bananas in the BANANA split. They were again made aware of the problem and they cut up a banana and handed me a cup of bananas. Lol. Never again.
Awesome onion rings and burgz
Incredibly good, free standing old school side of the road Ice Cream store. Flavors are unbeatable. Great find.
Good local Tennessee ice cream.We stop at ice cream stands all across America. The Chunky Monkey ice cream is good and flavorful. It has a smooth texture and slightly thick. It is not the best Ice Cream, but is good.I had the Extra Moose Tracks and I loved the chocolate swirls. The chocolate covered peanut-butter pieces were a little disappointing. They were a little waxy.It needs to be thicker and creamier in order to get into the top 10 nationwide.
Exceptional fast food and ice cream!
Great food, shakes, & ice cream!
Great ice cream
Sorry that we discovered this place at the close of the season. Was delicious...i got bananas foster...yummy.
I wouldn’t recommend eating here. The ice cream straight up tasted like boo boo garb. The employees were extremely rude, and they didn’t even wear gloves. 10/10 great place to get corona though. After the employee spit in my ice cream, they insulted what I was wearing and told me I was ugly. Not to mention that when I was leaving I saw two cockroaches roaming around. Disgusting.
I bring my kids and dog here all the time they have pup cups with vanilla ice cream and a dog treat although my dog doesnt like the hard Treats but he does enjoy the cold great of ice cream and of course the kids love everything that they have there I do wish they had a bigger selection of foods because its a really nice place to hang out after a long day in the heat to also enjoy food as well as ice cream. Is a really nice place to go.
Their ice cream is AWESOME!!! I dont know about their food items cause Ive only gotten their ice creams and EVERYONE is always friendly!!!
We only got a milkshake and a two scoop cone, but it was quick, friendly, and a nice place to stop with the family.
Ice cream is good (mayfield), burgers are decent, & fries are non seasoned. Great place for JUST ice cream but very sub par in anything else.
Great food and good selection
Pretty tasty ice cream!
Very good, we had the Trash Can, Peanut Butter Brownie, Thin Mint and Confetti Blasts...very good, stop here for your Ice Cream Fix.
Overheard the owner gossiping and laughing at her employees/customers in a very disturbing conversation that should’ve been private. Your unprofessionalism will drive your business into the ground, Karen.
They have good food and ice cream. Locally owned and operated.
Been going to this store since I was a child :) However there absolutely nothing special about this place. Don’t get me wrong I love Mayfield Ice cream, which in TN you can get at almost every store, they do not make their own ice cream they just buy mayfield and resell it in a cone or cup. Every since I was a child there were always flies in the restaurant until I stopped going in 2017 as a young teenager. Friend of mine found a heroin needle in their bathroom; their nasty dark back rooms lookin bathroom. Wether you are a local or passing by do not eat here, just go to the local Clinton Walmart and go get some freaking awesome Mayfield Ice cream. The Chunky Monkey is making Mayfield look bad by reselling it from their nasty Karen infested dingy restaurant. Would give 0 stars but google won’t let me.
Their was a lot of flys and their where flys in my food and I saw a used needle in the bathroom
Love this place, but I called to make sure they didn’t close until 10, so I brought my cousin from Texas on her last night and they were closed at 9:40... very disappointed.
Amazing icecream with a huge selection of unique combinations. Outside eating or carryout only.
First time Ive ate there. It was the best burger I have ever had.
Great ice cream and a cute little atmosphere. Food options are burgers and chicken tenders type options, so slightly limited, but great quality. The ice cream concotions are great. Baked goods and cake ordering options are available too!A nice place to bring family and kids.Indoor and outdoor seating.
Great place to eat. Hamburger was excellent..
They make the perfect onion rings at the Chunky Monkey and have delicious ice cream!
Love me some Chunky Monkey Blast from our small town ice cream shop!
Cool place
Lots of smokers in line which was somewhat disgusting and takes your appetite away for trying things on the menu. A good old fashioned experience though!
They are rude & have a bunch of inexperienced kids running it, they only sell sugar free butter pecan ice cream & didnt tell us it was sugar free until after we ordered our food & it is not clear on the sign wouldnt make it up or refund my money. The manager got an attitude.
Very good
Excellent hot fudge
Great place for ice cream break.
They were out of sugar cones, but I got a scoop of smokey mountain fudge and a scoop of strawberry cheesecake. Delicious!
Great ice cream!!
Get your air conditioning fixed! 3xs now weve been there and no air. Your poor workers! The soft server machine always has to catch up too. Otherwise, we love the place!
Decent little walk-up ice cream stand that sits off the road a bit. It’s easy to miss the driveway, so keep an eye out and slow down as you approach. The menu is what you would expect from a place like this, the prices are reasonable, and the ice cream was better than expected.
Best place ever for burgers, conveys, and especially the ice cream!
Very reasonable and I think the best ice cream
Cute little ice cream shop! Fairly busy but we got our ice cream really quickly. It was yummy and we will definitely be coming back!
Fast service! Great ice cream! Cute location! We will be back.
Way expensive and then the order was wrong not happy at all will not go back
