The Dark Chocolate Raspberry Truffle Ice Cream is the best ice cream I have ever eaten, period!! I'm not exaggerating either! Also, all the employees have always been so nice and friendly. I would give this place 10 stars if I could !!

All the ice cream tastes good! Has a "back in the days" appeal with a drive thru and seating outside everyone is friendly and helpful and the prices are great

This place always makes a great coffee. Just wished it was open 24 hours a day!

They have a great selection of standard flavors supplemented with fantastic rotating flavors - both soft serve and scooped ice cream alike! The staff is always nice and friendly. Their coffee is really good too!

I have tried it at least 5 times and always get the same thing. A Heath bar twister (Blizzard). I thought the first couple of times I received a melted twister was because it was brought home by my kids after a 5-7 minute drive. However the last few times I ate there and the twister is complete soup! Not even close to ice cream, total liquid. How can DQ, Southern Creamery, Mr Goodies and others make quality Blizzards and Monkey Joe’s cannot. I’m done. Do yourself a favor and skip it.

Friendly service with a smile. 50+ great flavors to choose from. Reasonable pricing. Wonderful roadside location.

My family and I love Monkey Joe's from the made to order craft coffees to the soft serve ice creams and hand scooped Hershey ice cream. Staff is always friendly the the drive through is super convenient.

Always great service, with friendly people and great ice cream. One of the reasons for the four stars is they didn't ask which container I wanted and assumed my I've cream in a bowl, I would rather they ask because I go with cone usually. Also, they ask for a tip like everywhere else, when they just ring up the customer like most other places. No extra service is being provided, no tip needed imo.

The Hershey's ice cream was good and the prices are very reasonable. There's lots of parking and a nice covered area to eat and talk. It's hot this summer so get the cup unless you can eat your ice cream fast.

Was my favorite until I got a large cup of soft serve Saturday night. I have been unemployed and decided to get a treat. When I dug in i found the inside was hollow. The cup was filled only around the outside with a big culy ice cream top. If melted down the cup is half to 2 thirds full. Ill take my hard earned money somewhere else in search of the biggest large cup of soft serve in this area. Good bye monkey joes.....
