This is such a cute little place. I was here today and got custard. The custard was top tier. It was soooo good. The prices are great too. I spoke to the owner for a few mins and it's obvious that she loves her customers. She was such a sweetheart and took the time to really get to know me. She was so personable and down to earth. I will be back! Thanks again for the hospitality and amazing custard.

Very friendly workers. Small indoor seating. Custard was some of the best I've ever had, and I have tried A LOT of custard/ice cream. Lol. The custard is very light in almost a soft serve fashion, however it has the custard taste. Chicago hot dog was a little too salty.

Perfect Custard Stand with fresh food and homemade custard. Small and clean and just right for a small town. The staff was excited to share their story and passion for the food they serve. I only leave reviews when they deserve 5 stars. 5/5!!!
