“ Seriously good banana split with your choice of ice creams. Old school type ice cream parlor feel and pricing. Busy on a warm day! ”
“ This Dairi-O is amazing!! I live about 30 minutes from it but when i eat there its amazing! Its about 20 bucks for an adult and a kid with a meal and ice cream. The atmosphere is amazing, you get your food quick and the workers are amazing. They are very clean, and they offer all sorts of food. P.S. I highly recommend the strawberry shortcake ice cream ”
“ Dairi-O was great. We all got hand scooped ice cream. Plenty of yummy options to choose from. Very clean and well taken care of. Drive-Thru was ran like a Chick-fil-A too. ”
“ Thank you, thank you, thank you ! We decided to get out of this house and get some fresh air. So we took a long drive. I already knew we were stopping at the Dairi-O on the way back. It was the absolute cherry on top of our outing. It was a surprise to the wife, and she loved it. Everything was so fresh and delicious ! She's already telling me we have to go back. Thanks again ! ”
“ Service and food quality seems to have improved since the last time I was here. The spicy chicken wrap is REALLY good. Soups are good too with grilled cheese. ”
“ Me and my boyfriend came in to eat for our first time from all the way from Charlotte and got absolutely amazing hospitality and customer service from both Destiny and summer. They were joyful helpful patient individuals and overall you could tell from the bottom of their hearts they enjoy working at Dairi O. I hope this review goes far because both deserve to be managers at a place like this! ”
“ We had an excellent first time experience at the Dairi- O ...It’s not even opened inside yet, but the drive-through sure is!!! My family and I enjoyed our very American meal in the car! We ordered the spicy chicken 4pc nuggets/strips, very tasty semi sweet and spicy sticky sauce! A monster burger with barbecue bacon, lettuce, and a BLT! However, I ordered the spicy chicken buffalo wrap, which I enjoyed, but the lettuce wasn’t very good...see last pic. Everything was very good... hot fresh and fast! The chocolate shake and Oreo flurry were delicious too! Similar to Wendy’s, frosty and a Oreo Mcflurry from McDonald’s. Their ranch tastes like its homemade, loved it! Their french fries are crinkle cut, with a little bit of salt and seasoning, and battered onion rings were both on point! They have a nice area and pergola with outdoor picnic tables as well. Plenty of parking! Can’t wait to come back for another yummy dinner! ”
