Not too many people in line today. Quick in and go. Not the healthiest place to eat but everyone deserves a treat occasionally.All food good quality.Try the potato kegs, better than tater tots.Almost any kind of ice cream treat you can imagine. Yummy!!

Nice ice cream place. Wasn't too fond of the cream chicken sandwich though. Ice cream is good here.I got the tornado called hot fudge brownie. It was good. Their tornadoes are like blizzards from DQ.They accept cash and some cards. I personally thought the service is good.They close in September. Be sure to try this place out before they close for the winter!

Everything was good. Nuggets were white meat, and they were actually better than anticipated; not like "fast food" nuggets that are mostly breading. Mushrooms were also good. This was my first time here. They were pretty busy. Both windows take orders, which was a little confusing as it got busier within minutes of getting there. The total was $13.00 for my order. Seems a little pricey, but, if the food is good, it is well worth it.

Hadn't been to Softies in several years. Took my 2 granddaughters and was quite disappointed. My coney tasted awful, fries were very small portion, and the cones were given to us with 1/3 of ice cream falling off the side. $25.00 for a lousy lunch. The staff member was the women that's been there for years not a teenager. Will not be returning.

I am rating it a two-star business as the employee was super nice. However, the product tasted more like ice milk and not ice cream. Not much flavor, not creamy. We try to stop at new places when we travel and this was the first time for us. Sorry it was not up to our liking.

The soft serve tastes like frozen custard and it is by far the best ice cream in the area. They have amazing cream chicken sandwiches and the tables and trees in the back are a nice addition. I have been going to Softies since I got as very young and the only problem I have ever had there is having to wait in line, however, I can’t blame other people for loving it too. LolP.S. I would recommend getting a plain soft serve twist. Pure, simple goodness.

Great ice cream and good prices. The staff are very friendly. Unfortunately parking is a slight issue, but still would recommend.

Typical old fashioned ice cream stand a lot on the menu to offer very cheap prices staff was quick and polite both times highly recommend their limited edition lemon cheesecake bar ice cream. It was so good ate it twice before I can get a picture next time I go I'll remember to take one to post.

Prices keep going up every single year, I remember when a small milkshake was 3.25 now it’s 4 dollars. And a Large is 3.75. Insane…

Soft serve good, Michigan pothole 3x chocolate a Dream my husband said. Nice tables in back we didn't know were there. Watch pulling off road, stay to far right to avoid scraping.

The ice cream is good but unfortunately everything is overpriced, considering the quality of the food. Also, the prices on their online menu board are significantly less than their prices in person.

Great place to get ice cream. The workers are always friendly. They have a nice area with picnic tables and benches to eat at behind the store.

Closed during the Winter.Seems to have a seasonal staff shortage needed to get orders out in a reasonable time.They usually have 2 windows going at the same time that creates confusion among the few people standing around waiting for food. God forbid a larger crowd. Parking at the front creates an issue with the people and KIDS meandering about.Maybe don't allow parking in the direct front.SO, I don't often go here unless I see it's pretty much empty.

They're food and ice cream is usually pretty good, but yesterday we had to mix together our own milkshakes because they were completely separated when we got them.

The Tiny Tot sized ice cream is perfectly sized and priced for our family; if they didn't have that tiny size, I would not likely every bring my kids here. The food is all horrible, so just stick to the treats.

It was okay, nothing to write home about. I ordered the Blondie Sunday and the Blondie brownies were crunchy and hard, I wasn't sure if they were stale or they were meant to be that way. Nonetheless they weren't all that great.

My favorite place for ice cream since I was a kid. The coneys are also a favorite!

Hots dogs were good, chili tasted like Manwich, and the fried pickles were sooo very good. I also got a kitkat tornado, and it was amazing!!! My friend got a chocolate moosetrack cone, that looked awesome. I'd go back for the ice cream and pickles but not the dogs.

We pulled up today and we were the only ones there. Then everyone came pouring in! We must have been good luck. The service is great, the people are very nice and the softies wonderful! We'll be back!

My only complaint would be my diet disagrees with the portion sizes 🤣 everything is ALWAYS delicious, great service, and lovely sitting area in the back

I haven't been to softies in years. Was able to enjoy a Reese's cup tornado. And my girlfriend enjoyed the chocolate peanut butter ice cream

The people were very friendly and the ice cream was good! Only had a problem with my loaded fries being to greasy. The wait time was very fast!

We ordered 2 "Tornadoes" (like a blizzard but better). They weighted about 4 lbs each!!!! Awesome desert, get this before anything else

Awesome local place for ice cream and other cold snacks. They also have a limited snack menu, hotdog, coney etc.

Basic food, had a hot fudge sunday but you have to ask for whip cream and nuts. I did know that. When I mentioned it to the staff they did not offer to add those items. Other than that its ok food.

Good icecream. The tornados are my fav. Knocked a star off because the regular and large are same size. The only difference is the price.

The cookie dough Tornado was great! The service and food were good and they are quick in getting your order to you.
