The most delicious frozen custard, ever. Just go for vanilla or cream, but other flavours delicious, too. Stop every time we go to Maine. So pleased it was open earlier in May than usual. Staff courteous and friendly.

Seriously good custard. I've heard it said that it should be a crime to drive through Poland and not stop here. Make a trip from 25 min away for some custard and it was well worth it.

Excellent custard: smooth and creamy. Small selection of flavors, but they are always great, so the limited options don’t become a problem. (They also offer a few soft serve varieties).

Love coming here to get a sweet treat - it changes weekly so you can always try something new! What I really want to highlight is not just the custard, but the quality of customer service in their employees - every time I come here, they are always smiling and friendly. Yesterday, specifically, it was extremely busy, a lot of people were waiting for their order and to place their order. The young woman was very organized, calm, and kept a smile on her face despite how busy she was. Kudos!

Ditto what Michael said. I was going to write a review and then I read Michael’s and it expressed what my heart was failing at communicating into words. Scoop of ANY custard topped with Black Raspberry Coffee twist ice cream - you’re welcome. If this could be Michelin Star rated …. (Death by happiness)
