Oh my goodness in my mouth! Fantastic, creamy wonderfulness! I cannot tell you enough how much you are missing out on if you skip this place. If you like frozen custard, this is the place for you! The staff is friendly and then portion size is reasonable. Just about any where you come from, it will be worth your drive. Bathrooms available. They also have an outside window if you don’t want to go inside. Parking: Easy to park and get to the shop. Kid-friendliness: Good place to bring the kids for a sweet treat! Wheelchair accessibility: Enough space to get around. They also have an outside window if you don’t want to go inside.
Great custard, and the selection of flavors and items has something for everyone. They recently expanded hours and are open for a few more days a week. Can get busy on weekends, but that only speaks for the quality.
I’m from where the original Meadows is located, and if you’re expecting this to be like that or any of the other franchise locations you’ll be disappointed. I know I’m about to sound over the top, but I really love the Meadows and am a fan of the brand. So much so that we drive an hour away to another location because this one is just that sub par! We really do love the frozen custard! That being said, here are the facts about this location: 1. They do not have actual flavors of the day like other franchises. They have vanilla and chocolate flavor with things mixed in, and that’s it. No black cherry, blueberry, raspberry, mint chocolate chip, butter pecan, etc. which is a hallmark of the chain. Extremely disappointing because this is one of the things people look forward to the most when ordering from The Meadows. 2. They have no indoor seating open even though they have the space for it, so you have to sit out in the heat or in your car. I’m not sure why this is, because again, they have an indoor space but it’s just blocked off and closed up. 3. Their hours are too restrictive. They’re only open limited hours on weekends in the summer only. 4. They do not offer black cows, banana splits, etc. which you would expect (again) from this franchise. 5. The service is great, and the owner seems kind. I think he may be overwhelmed running this place alone as I rarely see any other employees. 6. Their prices compared to the same products at locations elsewhere are inflated. For example, a hot fudge Sunday in PA costs around 4$. Here, its 8$. 7. Their vanilla custard rocks, as it should, and is not the same as ice cream. You’ll be fine ordering this if you know the product from other locations. I don’t believe it is made fresh, though, as I never see the machines actually running. All in all, this location gives “The Meadows Frozen Custard” a bad name. It’s upsetting, and someone should really come to this location to help support and train the staff here. Pro’s: the vanilla custard is great and the service is good.
