Customer Reviews
A Cash Only ice cream stand, there is an ATM on-site to withdraw cash. We just HAD to get ice cream after we went to the driving range next door to this place. We ordered the Cookie Monster Special (blue colored vanilla ice cream, with cookie dough, caramel swirls and mini M&M's, with chocolate sprinkles as a topping) and the Salted Caramel Pretzel ice cream. Compared to Richardson's it was equally delicious, but we would definitely come back since it's closer to home.
GREAT walk by ice-cream shop. It's cash only, but has ATM on the side. Paid ~$7 for 3 scoops of chocolate, strawberry and pumpkin oreo (seasonal). BEST chocolate and strawberry flavors I've tried, and the pumpkin oreo was awesome! Will DEFINITELY pass by again when I'm around the area.
The Big Dipper is our favorite ice cream stand in the area. The ice cream is high quality, the service is outstanding! We like it so much we drive by two other area ice cream stands to get there.
Found out about this gem while shopping at Restaurant Depot and being behind a gentleman at checkout who was wearing a employee shirt that read "The Big Dipper Ice Cream Stand" along with the address and phone number.. I immediately told my husband, we have to try it after googling the company right then and there. On Friday night we loaded the kids in the car and headed over after some park playtime. From the orange creamsicle soft serve to the Bear tracks, to the strawberry, cookie dough and mocha peanut butter, all amazing. My husband ate his faster than I've ever seen him ingest ice cream. Bear tracks is my new fave. Everyones rating was no power than and 8. My middle child gave an 8 because she only found one piece of cookie dough (and she's the cookie dough monster 🤣🤣). I told her we
I’ve gone here about 4 times in total and have been satisfied each time trying different flavors. Today I had their seasonal Cherry Almaretto flavor & that was 12/10. Yum. I like their hotdog deal, and banana flavored ice cream. The owner is a kind man, He gave my family 4 free cones when we told him he had dropped his license. (We had no clue it was him, just doing the right thing) Thank you!
