Dairy Queen

This location used to be the best! The previous owners wanted your business. They were open until 10 or 11p in the summer. But the newest owners are not interested in serving customers or making money. They list on the website they close at 9, but doors are locked at 8:30. My kids and friends would walk here on the last days of school for a treat. Now they don’t even open until 3p. Such a wasted opportunity for them. I’ll drive to the other locations that are willing to stay open later.

Favorite ice cream place in Rochester. Has been in the same location for as long as I can remember and has always had a friendly staff, great ownership, delicious ice cream (better than any other Dairy Queen I've been to) and great outdoor seating. Will always be a go to for any ice cream in Rochester for us.

I don't care how long I have to wait in line to get my blizzard! I will patiently wait, and wait. Many times each summer, and this is the only Dairy Queen I'll wait at. If I end up at another ice-cream shop in general, I won't wait if it's taking the people more than 2-3 minutes per customer. It must be nostalgia, of an easier time, when I was 5 or 6, and my siblings and I would go here with mom and dad on hot summer nights. We would wait for 30-45 minutes in the line that wrapped around the building. It has always been worth the wait, for that blizzard!

I love the location and the staff is friendly and speedy. It's a great spot to walk or ride your bike too. Perfect for families with lots of kids as their sitting area is ample. Beware though you will be close to cars and sometimes people drive "spiritedly", so watch your kids in case they start running around. tl;dr Perfect Daisy Queen with fantastic service. Spot a little tight.
