Would give ZERO stars if that was an option! Ordered a small cup of vanilla with gummy bears...one which fell on the counter, the person making it picked it up ... not wearing gloves and put it on the ice cream. When I said something about it she told me she didn't. When I told her I saw her do it, she said nothing and turned around to make another one with her back to me so I couldn'tsee what she was doing. She probably used her bare hand to put them on second one. Both older women working acted like they did not want to be there. Neither said anything when we walked in or when we left. The service sucked, and the prices are way to high!!!With what they charge, I'm sure they can afford to buy gloves for the employees to wear! Don't waste your time or money.

A quaint sweet unique ice cream spot. Good prices too! Will definitely visit again.

Tonight was our first time trying Wendy’s. When I asked, I was told that I could combine/twist any two soft-serve flavors. I chose lemon and strawberry. I asked if they had chocolate-dipped waffle cones. I was told no, only regular waffle cones, but that they had chocolate to dip it in. Yay, works for me!I received a vanilla cone with a very tiny faint pink color ribbon around the outside top half, and the entire top part of the ice cream was dipped in chocolate. There was no chocolate on my actual cone. They have only one size of waffle cone, which I’d consider a medium amount. My husband got a marshmallow shake, which he said was okay. When I saw it, I thought maybe he got a child-size, but it was actually a medium. We paid almost $11. Two stars because of the nice outdoor space and nice staff.

Our family loves coming to Wendy's for a sweet treat, especially on hot summer evenings. There was an extremely rude customer at the front of the line when I showed up just the other night, and the staff handled it very professionally.

We LOVE Wendy's! My oldest daughter worked there for many years in highschool and beyond. It's a great ice cream shop (& yummy food!) with a charming, small town atmosphere.

They were amazing! We brought a bus load of kids after a track meet. They were super nice and cranked out 50 ice cream orders in 30 min.

The ice cream is good but they don't put much in their blizzard for the candies or cookies. there real skimpy on it and that's pretty sad but the ice cream does taste good but you pay for convenience

always so good. love the variety of flavors. Love the hours, making a spur of the moment decision to get ice cream makes it easy to make new memories of getting a sweet treat with the family.

This is a nice, but very small ice cream shop that also serves food. We only had the ice cream on this visit. There are a plethora of ice cream concoctions here. If you can imagine it they can make it here. Very good service.

Best soft serve and malts in the metro. I used to live near Snookie's in Beaverdale, and that place pales in comparison to Wendy's. Nothing better than a (not-so) small town ice cream shop

Absolutely love their Ice Cream variety. No matter flavor you're craving they will have it. Even better, it's locally owned. A sample in Norwalk that everyone NEEDS to try

Stopped on a whim, the only ice cream we could find in Norwalk. Absolutely worth it! Fair prices and great ice cream. Will be back.

This local ice cream shop has inexpensive prices and a ton of different flavors. The shakes are too thick to drink through a straw so get a spoon. I still recommend a shake because those shakes are really that good. Great experience every time, my oldest son (2 years) loves it.

Went here after house hunting in Norwalk. Love this little ice cream shop! My pumpkin ice cream and my husband's raspberry ice cream were very tasty! They also had meal options which I want to try when we go back :)

Wendy's is your typical small town ice cream shop. But as the only one in Norwalk, it's popular. What makes it a notch above others is its wide variety of ice cream delights! Lots of flavors, a variety of cones, including waffle cones (my favorite!). Sundaes, malts, shakes, it runs the whole thing! Want candy in your ice cream? Got it. And they offer modest lunches of sandwiches soups! Try it!

They really do have Great Malts.....I'm going to try the black rasberry one on my next visit. However, the customer service counter person (adult woman) could extend a friendly "hello", a "thank you" or even a simple "see you next time"gesture to all customers :-)

I've been stopping here for over 10 years and have never had a bad experience. My favorite is the Wendy whirl with Reese's peices and cookie dough. They don't use those pre-made cookie dough nuggets, they add a scoop of real dough. It's always a treat to stop by and I enjoy supporting local a business.
