Most Disliked
During peak hours, especially Fridays, the wait can get lengthy as everyone flocks to enjoy their favorite flavors. While the line moves fairly quickly, be prepared for a potential wait during those high traffic times, particularly around dinner hours.
Some patrons have noted that not all flavors hit the mark, suggesting that certain combinations may need a little tweaking. Despite an extensive flavor list, individual tastes may lead some to find a few flavors less impressive than others.
A casual dining environment means that seating can fill up quickly, which might be challenging for larger groups who prefer having a comfortable spot to enjoy their meals together.

Amazing i loved this place when i lived in big spring when i was a kid the gummy worms were nostalgic and the snow cones it makes me want to go to place and pizza in everyday the place is amazing one of the best parts of big spring.

Dude the pickle has always been my favorite. Then I find out you can ask for "chunks" which is pickled cubed tossed! Wife likes the wedding cake flavor with cream. Hell just add the cream to any flavor and it's awesome. My non-sour flavor pick is root bear with cream for the win!
