I've never been to the Dari Barn until today. The service was amazing, friendless service ever! We ordered the barn burger and pig pen fries. Pig pen fries are a meal of themselves. The food was Extraordinary. Bit pricey, but where isn't these days! I will Definitely go there again when I'm in the area.

Excellent custard-style ice cream with generous serving sizes. The hamburgers are cooked to order and smell wonderful even as they are being cooked. They taste great, though heavy on the mustard, and are large. They have so many interesting sundaes and cyclones. We keep coming back to try something new.

The best ice cream and food in town. Extremely popular, so there's a wait sometimes, but the frozen yogurt and cheese curds are worth the wait. Limited seating. But it's ok, because it's that delicious.

We've been coming here all summer on motorcycle rides. Staff is friendly and helpful. The selections are great. We've seen several pups get their "pup cones" and it's fun to see how happy they are!

I love this little sweet spot - but I need to apologize for my uncle who was there earlier this month and he was SO rude to your employee and the owner - he complained that he was 'being discriminated against' because you don't serve sugar free ice cream. He is a total snob from California who lives a very cushy life. I told my uncle to put a sock in it next time. It's not your fault he ate bad and has diabetes and now feels the whole world needs to accommodate his addiction to sugar free ice cream. I was embarrassed to come back , but was there last week for a sundae and it was sugary sweet and absolutely delightful!
