Absolutely the best soft serve ice cream anywhere. I have travelled to 60 nations in the world and tried ice cream about every place I went. There's no ice cream that compares to the yummy soft serve vanilla cone made from Prairie Farms cream at SCOOPS

Stopped here, because they have outside seats and we had our dog. They gave him a pup cup and I had the giant tenderloin! It was delicious and dressed with onion, mayo and pickles. My partner has a cheeseburger and chocolate shake, he said it was like an old fashioned shake.

Good place for burgers and fries...especially the fries. Best in town or around. Have not tried any ice cream yet but I'm sure I'll fix that this summer. Update: Still just as good as before. The fries, while outstanding, can be hit or miss as fat as their crispness, but they are still good.

Scoops is great for a quick lunch, with a menu full of burgers, chicken tenders, and ice cream treats - way better than any fast food chain. The staff are super nice and the food is always yummy. I only wish they were open on Saturdays, too!

Giant Tenderloin Combo Sandwich was GIANT crispy and fresh, comes with all the trimmings (see photo) French Fries were good considering I didn't eat them right away. The portion size of the French Fries provided with the combo meal are very small (see photo). You might consider upgrading if you like a lot of FF's with you're meal. Coke products: Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, etc 1st time patron - not bad, I'll be back to try some other menu items. Note: Scoops offers some Moonlight BBQ items on their menu. Hope this helps
