Description
Operating mainly for take-out, this outpost of the historic chain delivers the expected cold treats, though the customer experience varies. Staff have earned praise for pulling off perfect custom cakes on short notice with fresh cream and flawless icing. However, the shop is also known to run out of daily specials or standard milkshake ingredients, and visitors sometimes encounter strict policies on accessories like extra spoons and napkins.
