Baskin-robbins

There was only one very hard working girl to take care of too many people. One person ordered three hand packed quarts of the hardest ice cream I've ever seen. She tried her hardest while four people walked out. I felt very bad for her. Not her fault that management made her and Baskin Robbins look bad.

Long before all those "premium" ice cream places started popping up with their selections of odd flavors and toppings, Baskin-Robbins was there with their 31 flavors and their collection of tried and true traditional toppers. Entering pretty much any BR brings back memories of childhood for older folks like me. Most of the flavors remain the same and the favorite plain and sugar comes are always there too. Sure, they've added new things here and there, but that's not why people go here. We go because it is comfortable and affordable and reliably the same with no real risk of getting anything we won't like. This location has always been clean and well-lit when I've gone. The service has always been friendly and timely. I wish there was a water fountain, something which used to be a standard feature at almost every 31 Flavors but which seems to have mostly disappeared these days. Too bad. Ice cold water is the perfect thing to wash down melting sweet cream. Look, if you want ice cream or just a sense of sharing almost 75 years of experiences with those who have come before, this is a great place. Stop in. Enjoy yourself. Bring the kids or a friend or come by yourself so you can get the triple-scoop you really want without judgement. You can't go wrong.
