I almost gave it two stars because the golf course is SO bad that it actually makes it almost comical and adds a star lol.I mean come on though guys, either just close this place up or charge a price thats in line with how rundown the setup is. This is without a doubt the crappiest course anywhere around. Weeds literally everywhere, the greens (see pics) are absolutely shredded / chewed up and the golf clubs are all bent! One perk - we (on a weekend) were the only ones there... not so surprising but we were thankfully able to breeze through this dump and get the heck out of there.$8 per person... SERIOUSLY?!?! This place is one step away from closing down or being marked unfit for safety reasons and you’ll probably need a tetanus shot after handling the golf clubs.If you couldn’t tell, you couldn’t pay us to return here. The owner need to either take some of that COVID relief money and renovate this place or just shut it down completely.
This place is the balm!I have been bringing groups here from seniors to daycare students and they are so accommodating...they can take orders from groups of 25 with smiles and joy...this staff amazes me with their customer service! The food is also a gem...just dont go for the ice cream! The mini golf is off the charts great and this small business knows how to do it right! Please go...support them...enjoy...and know...you will NOT be disappointed! BTW...THE ICE CREAM IS THE BEST AROUND!MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL!BRENDA KENNEDY
This review is strictly on the soft serve ice cream. Last summer I would come here and the ice cream always looked and felt gritty and tasted like sanitizer had not been properly rinsed out of the soft serve machines. After giving it a break for a year we finally decided to give it another try and things seemed to improve a lot flavor and texture wise. It’s really good now and we try to go when the younger crowd is working cause they seem to give a bigger portion of ice cream. We were going to Rita’s over the summer during our break from this place and almost went back to Rita’s after our first time back because the large ice cream we got in the big waffle cones was kinda small for the price. We gave it one more try and thats when the high school kids were working and actually filled the whole cone up. After that point we had better luck. Side note…. I will say that the mini golf course looks rough and pretty blah. I’m sure it’s hard to maintain with customers that are probably rough on all the equipment and courses but I’m curious if it is even worth it for them to have it. I don’t see people on it very often.
The ice cream is SO good, but very expensive. The golf however is SOOOOOOO AWFUL.. $12 for two adults for a ripped up course that interferes with play, disgusting algae filled pond with a broken sprinkler, handle of my putter was fixed with electrical tape, even the flags have missing or ripped up numbers. The course is boring, every hole looks the same basically. Every time you reach for your golf ball out of the hole, you get shocked from the metal. Masks are not enforced. Obviously this part isn’t the course’s fault but participants brought they’re dog into the course that wouldn’t stop barking the whole time And also weren’t wearing masks/social distancing, just being plain rude and loud too. Just being honest sharing my unpleasant experience.
Friendly staff good food and great ice cream selection!
Had a blast playing mini golf!! Its a very family friendly environment 🙂
Hard ice cream was very good over the custard. Portions decent also. I was however disappointed that there are no prices listed on the menu. For that reason not sure I would return.
Great place kids and me love the 🍦 and customer service is wonderful
I had the banana split. It was a meal in itself. Prices are a little high but all prices are high nowadays 🙁
Great ice cream perfect service dont mess your order up
Awesome chili cheese fries. Good ice cream, not airy, and the sprinkles are good they are not hard or crunchy or waxy like. They need to set about changing the line system. The lines are chaotic. It always seems to be one person taking orders and then 3 people getting said order. 4 people to help 1 customer. Unacceptable. I put up with it because I do love going out for ice cream and eh it is what it is.
Great ice cream selection and mini golf was fun
Great place for kids and adults
Been here a bunch of times and my family loves it. The ice cream and food are great and it just kind of gives you that small-town feel-good vibe. Its a nice little place to take the kids for some ice cream and mini golf and the staff is great too!
Ice cream a bit pricey but good
👍🏌️🍦 I recommend this place, thank you 😋
Best soft serve around!
Great place for kids. Courses need repairs but over all nice place to spend tome with family
Expensive for small softserve and sprinkles....$6.32Never again. I will go to Dairy Queen
GREAT icecream
Maintenance needs to be done but friendly and nice for quick family outing.
Didnt try the food, however, the mini-golf course is awful. The green is tattered and missing in some areas, and the clubs they give you have damaged handles. It also looks extremely dirty. Ripped up green wouldnt be much of an issue if it didnt interfere with game play, and if they didnt charge $7 per person.
Soft vanilla ice cream should not be grainy and gummy. Bottom of the machine maybe?
Nice place for the kids
GreatIce cream mini golf was fun for me my grandmother and my baby sister
Creamy homemade ice cream. Selective flavors, coconut almond joy,delicious.
Great soft serve
Good ice cream, call before you go, the sign says they close at 8pm, but I got there at 745 tonight and the kids working there said they were closed I guess they make up their own hours.
I love Castlegate ice cream! I have been going there for years. However its unfortunate when some people are just not cut out for customer service. There was a young girl working there this evening who could not seem to be bothered to help me, my friend and her 8 year old son. when we had asked about the price for the Jukebox on the inside she acted as if she was too busy to answer. There were no other customers at this time. Sad... its a great place and I will continue to go hopefully I will have better service next time.
$10 minimum to use debit and credit cards. Ice cream was decent. Would be nice to have the opportunity to get something to drink at the window rather than having to go to the store next to it.
They have my favorite ice cream, GrapeNut! Great staff
Excellent food and service. Great food is prices.
Nice place and varieties of sugar free ice cream. Love the mini golf
The ice cream is simply amazing. With a variety of flavors for my kids its too many to choose from but for me the choice is easy coconut is my favorite.👌
This place is very disappointing I went there for my birthday on Monday greens were all ripped up the flags were all ripped up I need to maintain when Piazza on this place they took care of
I came for an early lunch and had a great meal. The staff, Cheryl, was such a delight and did a great job. I will be back and will suggest others to do so as well.
My 13yr old grandson and I had a nice time playing a game of minature golf, and then we had some ice cream there, which was very good. It was great night, we will go again. The people who worked there were very nice.
Always have friendly service. The place has always been clean any time I went. The ice cream is great!! They have a great variety of different flavors and options as to how you want it! Love coming here with the family to enjoy some homemade ice cream. The minature golf needs a little makeover. Its fun to do once, but nothing super exciting that would have me do it again unless they redo it to make it more attractive.
Good food and ice cream at a good price, plus they have mini-golf. This is one of my favorite places to go on a summer night. They are also open all year round.
Usually have a good experience, but this time the employees were really rude, the soft serve was gritty and my cookie dough had a long hair in it.
Friendly staff and one of the cleaner ice cream/food stand establishments Ive been to. However, the prices are all but hidden. They are not included the big, beautiful menus, but rather printed up on small pieces of paper taped to the window.I got a strawberry shortcake sundae with peach offer cream. The ice cream was lacking in flavor, in my opinion, and the shortcake was pretty dry on its own. It also didnt come with hot fudge, which I thought was odd for a sundae. For what its worth, you do get a good value; a medium-sized cup is almost too much for one person at less than $5.
Their soft served is so good. Really nice folks. And they serve lunch
