So I understand that this is a small town but an ice cream shop closing at 6 in the summer time is just rediculous. Your the only ice cream place in town and your missing out on a bunch of business. We will never come back because of that.

I love Bear Coal Laundry mat and soda fountain!
In the summer my kids LOVE getting a $1 ice cream on laundry day. Makes laundry fun! The ladies who run this place keep it dusted, cleaned, sanitized. I'm always very thankful for how clean and tidy they keep it. Makes it feel like my laundry is actually being cleaned. Haha! They also do what it takes to keeps their machines working. If one goes down they are quick to get someone in to fix it.

Good ice cream and Italian sodas. It is inside a laundromat, the hours seem to change to whenever the employees feel like saying they're closed, and the service ranges from excellent to abominable. Inconsistent, but tasty and nice to have around as an option.

Bitter sweet. I see you doing something good but why would you do it inside the laundromat? Could've had a small shack next door. Not only is it packed but you also need to have people not loiter in their vehicles waiting for their laundry. Other customers can't park to wash their laundry. How bout asking those waiting in their vehicles to park across the street to leave some parking spaces open for those dropping off. There's hardly any room now to fold clothes on any counter since you took the two to utilize as eating areas. Great idea in the wrong place

Every time I did my laundry here I would find it removed by someone, as to whom, I don't know. But the owner doesn't mind people doing that. Horrible business. The shake place takes forever and the shakes aren't even good. Don't even bother with this place. Worst experience ever.

This place is amazing make sure you stop here if you live in town or just passing through they even got to drive up window to make it convenient I recommend it any of their sandwiches but most of all they make the best grilled cheese I've ever had for an extremely fair price I'd probably pay double for what they give you the ice cream is phenomenal especially the toasted coconut pineapple the scoops are generous and extremely fairly priced as well the Italian sodas are delicious and made right once again fairly priced I also get my laundry service done here they wash and fold my clothes for an extremely fair price I almost feel like they should charge more for their services because they are top of the line and I love supporting local businesses whose place is a must go with the family or just for a quick bite the staff is always polite and inviting would have gave it six stars if I could

Shout out to the lady studying for her NCLEX and still being patient with us newbies from out of town. Fantastic sundaes! The hot fudge was amazing on top.

This is the only ice cream shop and home made sodas like we had in years past. They also I think still make sandwiches. The ice cream I'd great.

Really good service they are quick and kind. The atmosphere is like a 50's dinner and I like it. It may be on the middle of a laundry mat yet it feels like it's own building. Overall great taste amd servicem
