Wow. Service is sooooo slow here. The only reason I give this place 2 stars is because my coconut ice cream was pretty good. However, we waited 20 to 25 minutes on line when there were only about five customers in front of us. The ONE clerk that they had serving (on Labor Day, might I add) was both serving and ringing people up. Handing cash and serving ice cream with no gloves is a no no. She also wasn’t friendly at all nor did she look interested in speeding things up.
Total for a «kiddie» cup that is advertised as «kiddie, but not just for kids» was $ 4.18 but the portions are plenty. I would only come here again if there was absolutely no line.

Good ice cream! Not the very best I’ve ever had, but still very good. Had the peanut butter chocolate, and the black raspberry. Long line, but it moved quickly, so don’t be discouraged!

Had a coconut donut which was really good, the girl behind the counter was also very nice!

Worst Hot Dog Ever!!! Ice cream is fine. Just average really, but the hot dogs tasted like discount crummy dogs you would buy if you were wicked short on cash but had to eat something. Yes, I’ve been there but I can’t believe anyone would ever serve them to the public!!! Don’t go here! Go up the Street for Ice Cream, next door for food, across the street for cotton candy but a place that serves such ratty hot dogs deserves to be shunned!

The ice cream is here is homemade and quite good; best we’ve had on the island. Service is efficient and friendly. The prices are a bit high — like everything else on the island — but the portions are huge.

Walked in off the street to get some breakfast and will never go again. We waited over half an hour for a couple of breakfast sandwiches and when they came out they were just microwaved egg and cheese. People who ordered after us were served before us and the employees were just standing around. It completely ruined my morning DONT GO HERE!

The breakfast sandwiches last season were good. They just opened for this season and I went in there’s was no body else there just myself and the employee, I ordered a very simple sandwich it took about 10 minutes or so because another employee came in and they had to chat which they both asked me again what my order was both times it was completely off, then I saw her walk to the microwave with some green stuff on a plate and I was hoping she was not microwaving my avocado… Then I paid I needed a receipt and they couldn’t figure out how to print one, ok I’m in a rush I couldn’t wait so I get to work to eat and whatever egg and avocado combo this person put on the bagel it was absolutely not able to be consumed. It was lime green and smelt AWFUL. She must have microwaved the avocado but it didn’t even look like any avocado I’ve ever had before. I have NO clue what they put on this thing. I feel bad I’ve had good experiences here (when the younger more attentive employees were working) but this season they are off to a BAD start. Maybe I’ll go back mid season and see if they’ve figured it out.

Stopped in here for an iced coffee once we got off the ferry. Had a moment of sticker shock at what she quoted me for two not-​entirely-​full medium iced coffees ($ 8+), but then I remembered that this is no Dunkin, and we’re on Martha’s Vineyard. So I got over myself. The coffee itself was very good. I’m not sure what the other coffee options on the island are, but this one was just fine for what it was.

Price board says $ 6 for a banana split. Order one and it comes out to $ 7.44. I asked, «what’s the tax rate here, 20 plus percent?», the girl says, «oh, those are the old prices». Nice. Does MA allow this or is this a screw the tourist practice?
Also, I’ve had far better mass produced ice cream than their home made strawberry.
Wish I could give a zero.
