Gotta love a locally owned ice cream shop! Dairy zone has been a tradition in our family for 20+ years. I don’t know why their ice cream tastes so much better…but it does. My personal favorite is a chocolate marshmallow shake! - Angela McKenzie

A true east side TRADITION! …and I see why!! Stumbled across them while looking for their competitor- glad I stopped in. Fast friendly service and beautiful smiles. Great menu lots of diary and foot choices- definately worth the drive close to the Fair Grounds. What a great tradition. They even have a practice menu in back to look at prior to getting to order speaker! Well thought out 👍

This place had a line for hours! Great tasting ice cream for the family. If you are a Dairy Queen fan, you will love this place as they add their local touch. Their Blizzards are called Tornadoes so make sure you order one of those!

An East Side staple for ice cream and a quick bite. The line may be long but it's worth it. Always friendly staff and if you have a pup in your party the pup cones are a hit

I put a order in at the drive thru for food. Tenderloin meal they gave me a number and asked me to pull up I waited over half hour in my car no food and nobody told me anything I went to the window and they didn't even know what my order was. She said I can give you the money back or if you want to wait we can do the order. That's it? Not okay. I spend money there all the time and the reaction with this experience I WILL NOT go back and make sure everyone knows my experience and doesn't spend their hard earned money there either as they don't care about their customers!!

First time for my family. Stopped because we had heard great things. It was so good. We went for treats after my daughters dance recital, she loved it. We will be back again

Ordered a Chocolate Chip Tornado with chocolate ice cream and two other items spending about $20. I received a cup of chocolate ice cream and Magic Shell. I was told that's how they do it. I asked why does it say clearly that it's made with chocolate chips when obviously it is not? That's just how they do it. I've never seen a business model that supports lies and then acts like the customer should have somehow known. How very lame. I grew up on the east side but I'm not supporting that nonsense. This is a great example of why east side businesses have failed for decades. Local or nnot I won't be back. Don't waste your money. Drive up the street to a real local I've cream shop - Over the Top.

Yum! I had a small cherry dipped cone and it was really good and actually a pretty good sized cone for being a small. I went through the drive through and the service was fast and friendly. There are many options on the menu and even hot food. I will have to come back to try something else and sit outside in their outdoor seating area.
