Dairy Queen Grill & Chill

I usually enjoy Blizzards from DQ, but this time was a complete letdown. We were really looking forward to a cool treat after a long, hot hike through the Maquoketa Caves, but the kids were totally disappointed. What I got looked and tasted more like a milkshake watery, poorly mixed, and definitely not Blizzard quality. It didn’t even pass the upside down test.. After walking so much in the heat, they were expecting something refreshing and satisfying, but this fell way short. I asked the staff about it, but there was no proper response. I specifically spoke to Pogi, but unfortunately, I didn’t get any real help or solution. For the price, it just wasn’t worth it. Really disappointed with the experience.

Went there today for the BLIZZARD special. Second time I've had a blizzard & there's no improvement! If not for the butter of the peanut butter cups, it would have been blah, blah, blah! Just the ice cream is no way to make a shake. Flavor should be added! Plus the girl who wait on us wasn't pleasant. She wasn't rude but no "hello", no smile, no small talk! She didn't want to be there! The yucky blizzard & unwelcoming customer service ~ I don't think I'll be going back! Get a recipe from Whitey's!!!

I swear the kids serving us were 11-13 years old and they messed up my sundae and forgot to bring me my new one. And the chicken strip basket had TINY chicken strips and barely any food in the big box. The dining area was dirty and the garbage was overflowing.

Had the chicken strip basket, fine as fast food goes. Added cheeseballs to my order again fine for fastfood. Nothing to really brag about.

Having given up ice cream for Lent, and seeing all the commercials for the "Confetti Cake Blizzard" I was so excited to stop there with my hubby Wednesday evening 4/23. I ordered a large one & was never more disappointed about ice cream in my life! I expected pieces of cake, frosting, I guess something other than what I got ~ which was a large vanilla ice cream Blizzard with tiny candies mixed in. Absolutely nothing else! Not one single crumb of cake. It was a Confetti Cake BLAH! 😥 **Dear owner, WHY would I want to spend more money on something that was horrible? That's crazy! Offer me a FREE one & show me that the Blizzard is better than what I had & I'll be back!!
