In the mood for ice cream, husband and I took a trip down to Eggers on a Saturday night at around 9:20. I hadn't been there in ten years, and my husband had never been. It looked very much the same outside and in, but with many more servers than I rememebered. Still, no one met us immediately at the door, as we followed a sign that instructed us to "please wait to be seated." We were seated within a minute or two in their (not always there) dining area, and were left with menus for at least 5-10 minutes. I don't think it takes *that* long to decide how much ice cream you want, but it was pretty busy that night; their hours are supposed to be until 10 on Saturdays, and people were still piling in by 9:50, when we left. My husband got a strawberry shake, I got a two-scoop sundae, and both were delicious. Very good portions; even as a pregnant person I couldn't eat all of mine. The atmosphere left something to be desired: we noticed a lot of tables that took a long time to be cleared. Tips were picked up immediately, but dishes were left on the table for at least 20 minutes before being picked up. I did not use the bathrooms, but heard from another customer that the women's one was "atrocious." Most of the workers are young high school and college students whose friends like to visit them and make a lot of noise, as well. All in all, we had great ice cream, but would probably do take-out next time. Maybe it's better during off-peak time.

Pros: Ice cream, prices

Cons: Service, atmosphere, cleanliness

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This is a wonderful place to take a date or for family. It has charm and is not one of those 'other' soft serve or mashed-up ice cream places. They serve ice cream and make ice cream the way its suppose to be. There are three locations and each has its own appeal. Also wonderful speciality chocolates.

Pros: quality flavor and atmosphere

I really love their milk shakes and their maple walnut ice cream. It's creamy. I do wish the staff would wear uniforms- something alittle more formal. Anyway, the staff are helpful and friendly. I recently tried coldstone and their ice cream is not nearly as creamy and its much more expensive..

Pros: charming, family oriented, good parking

Cons: , gets crowded, strip mall
