Winding down for the season.

There is just a little over a month left before Dairy Kastle winds down the season and closes in early October. So do make your runs down there for ice cream and other goodies soon. It’s probably the top spot for soft serve ice cream...More

Fast service, even when packed

Decided to go on Memorial Day in 80+ degree heat, and there was quite the line. The 5 people working were impressively fast and maintained a friendly attitude. Oh, and the ice cream is delicious!

Spring is coming.

When Dairy Kastle opens its a sure sign that spring is almost here. Sure, it was in the 50s today but that didn’t stop folks from standing in line waiting for ice cream-many of them in shorts and T-shirts. We always look forward to getting...More

A Dip Worth the Trip

Small. Family-owned. Service with a smile. Expect a long line but it gives you time to decide from the sweet-filled choices. Shakes, sundaes, taco in a bag (YUM!!), dipped cones or a cone with sprinkles, or a vanilla/orange twist...one of my favorites. Also tops on...More

We used to come here often when we lived nearby, however, since we moved we are not in the area as much. But some things stay the same. It’s still the hot spot for soft serve ice cream, etc. The lines move fairly quickly, service...More
