I got a caramel something or other blizzard from here, absolutely delicious.
Yum! Yum! service was great store looked clean from outside 👌
Love this place...Always busy but thats to be expected.The staff is very polite and I usually go here with a group of 10+ adults and they get the orders out extremely quick.
One of only a few places in Wilmington too server Soft-Serve Ice Cream.Theres almost always a line here on warm summer nights. People waiting in line for Blizzards. Remember Blizzards are thick, and the staff is supposed to turn your blizzard upside down when they hand it to you. Some Dairy Queens still have the flip or free policy in place. They always flip mine so Im not sure if flip or free is the policy here.
Size has gone down, price up. Asked for a cup of water with ice. Got half a cup of lukewarm water. She had already started taking order from next person and I would have to had to interrupt to correct.
It was very busy but we promised my 2 year old grandson some ice cream if he was good when he got his hair cut. He loves Dairy Queen ice cream and got a vanilla ice cream cone. I got a vanilla shake and it was very delicious and thick!
What more can you say. The D.Q. ALWAYS DELIVERS. GREAT ICECREAM AT A FAIR PRICE....GO D.Q.******
The only thing good about this place is the ice cream. The ice cream from places like Burger King is too hard, and every time I bite into it, I get an ice cream headache. Dairy Queens ice cream is soft, just the way I like it. I only go once every 7 years
Ice cream! No food and order outside. Fun summer hangout! Great for teens.
Eli, Elijah, Ms Dee, James, and Michael are superstars! They made sure my dad and I had everything we needed and went the extra mile to give us a perfectly constructed Sunday that was as beautiful as it was tasty! Thanks to this drew, we had the best experience weve ever had at a DQ! This crew deserves a raise!
Sweet. First time Blizzard.. Strawberry cheesecake. Damn good.
This location was our families go to for 8+ years until last night. I was watching the staff make the guest in front of us order. Which were different flavor blizzards. What made me decide to review and post was- when the staff used their hands to fill the cup of ice cream that had fallen when they turned the cup upside down. Then preceded to use rag to wipe the sides of the cup. Gross! No wonder the sanitary code was low. I know health is hard to find however training goes a long way. Not going back anytime soon.
Always Yummy... The ice cream isnt always the same size, I always order medium... Hit and miss, but its my money :(I was told it weighed, but we ordered two mediums from same Dairy Queen, each went to a different window. We both received a different size. Just want what we are paying for.
The Blizzard was so delicious...I will always be #teamdairyqueen
Great product but way too busy!
Good food very rude and slow employees. I went on 6/6 around 9m and the employee with long pink nails and a blonde streak in her hair was incredibly rude and didn’t acknowledge other customers behind us who had been waiting for a while.
Always a great place to stop after lunch. Good people.
Asst Manager Dee is amazing. This is the best Dairy Queen. Always great service and treats.
Yum yum best ice cream and best service
My favorite go to place when Im in Wilmington
The county my grandma used to always take me to get them I thought you would get a Dilly bar
#1 on my treat-meter!! Hard working, polite young people operate this store.
9/4/29, @9pm. Drove 15 minutes there, stood in line for 20 minutes, ordered 2 Blizzards, a small and medium. My fiancee who was with me just studied for and took a food service exam this week, and therefore noticed that our server had long brightly colored fingernail extentions, which she said were no-nos in the materials she had to study. As I am standing next to the window waiting, I begin to read the poster about Blizzards on the glass next to the opening where you order, pay and receive your product. The poster makes a big deal out of the fact that the server is supposed to turn at least one Blizzard, in a multiple Blizzard order, upside down to show that they are the correct temperature and consistency and have been prepared properly, (and if they dont, to ask for a coupon for a free one on the next visit). I have been getting them for about 15 years and that has always been the case. Thats why I went to DQ, I love them. I have never before been anything but pleased with my Blizzards from many different locations. I may be wrong, but I seem to also remember that there is a machine that mixes the very cold semi-solid ice cream component, with the various ingredients so they are all properly combined. I looked through the window and saw our server with a long spoon moving in an up-down motion as if she was doing it manually, held by the hands with the aforementioned fingernail extensions. And when she handed them to us, first one, and then a few minutes later, the other, she held neither one upside down. We quickly saw that rather than a stiff, semi-solid consistency like every other Blizzard weve ever had, these were more like melting soft serve ice cream, and that if she had turned them upside down, they would have dripped and fallen out. I glanced up at the poster again and said, It says here that you owe us a coupon because you didnt turn these upside down. She retreated back and talked to a male employee asking where the coupons were, at which point he disappeared. After a few minutes she finally came back and said they couldnt find the coupons and asked if we could move away from the window until they did, so she could take the order of the people behind us, (who by then had been waiting 20 minutes as well). We stood waiting beside the window at the corner of the building as their order was taken for a few minutes, but because of Covid 19 notices placed on the windows we felt uncomfortable that close to others so we moved a few feet around the corner to the window to our servers left, which was closed, but through which we could see the servers between the service window and the machines and product behind them, and they could see us. After no more communication from the employee for a few more minutes as our soft serve Blizzards were melting in the (still at that time of night), 87 degree heat, we decided to leave. I have never had to do anything of this nature, or felt like I should. I ordered a standard product by this business as I have many times in the past, always satisfactorily, but received a sub standard product and very poor service. I saw 3 people working there. A girl at each window, ours was the shorter one, and a male doing various things but not taking orders. They all looked to be in their late teens. Not the way a food service business should be operated. Rant over.
Old school walk up vibe, bad parking
Went there after lunch at the oceanic. The blizzards and summer slush was delish
The best ever brownie batter Sunday
DQ is a classic! You can never go wrong with a blizzard or peanut buster parfait.
It was crowded, nuff said, lol.
My favorite place for ice cream and the only place that has cherry mr. Misty flores
What is there to say... Its DQ!!
The young man that was working the day we were there was rude when we were asking questions.
I always enjoy coming here for a treat on a hot summer day. Reminds me of childhood and I go for the classic dipped cone
It was not bad. Orders came out quick. Just wish they had hot food.
I only eat the medium size, vanilla ice cones, and OMG, they are delicious.In addition, the last 3 times I have eaten there, they were moderately busy with customers. It appears that most of them order more complex deserts than me.
You cant Beat a Beach Blizzard!
Expensive but good somehow
Dilly Bar love
It is a very nice place to go with your family, they have some tables where you should take a sit and enjoy your favorite ice cream.... 🤤🤤🤤🤤😻😻😻😻😻👌🙌👅
Very clean and very delicious. You can’t go wrong eating a blizzard in the southern heat!
Need to change online hours, only open till 8 due to covid19, showed up at 8:05 and there was a line of cars so i assumed they were open. Waited in line for a good 8 minutes and when we got up to order they said they weren’t taking orders anymore. Do not let cars sit in line and then tell them they can’t order. I asked for a managers phone number and the person working just ignored me and never responded back over the speaker. Not great customer service or communication.
My family goes maybe twice a year for blizzards. They are so stingy with your chosen ingredient and tasted like sour milk the last three visits. Nope. Never again wasting our money.
We went at 9 pm waited a really long time. When we finally received our blizzards they were very runny. My fiancee asked for a coupon because the server couldnt turn them upside down. The guy in charge couldnt find a coupon so we finally left. The girl didnt evem use the blizzard machine to blend his she used his spoon. Very poor experience!!!
Fast friendly service
Love their milkshakes.
Got the chocolate cheesecake and was very delicious.
Always delicious
Good food
The cheesecake bits werent that great, but the chocolate ice cream and oreos were fantastic.
You can walk up and order two windows open. No drive through baloney. Great specials fast service tasty product.
Decent coffee shakes, but a shame that they have no food. Workers there are okay. This place works fine in a pinch.
Love their ice cream....
Been great to have them open through this pamdimic. Love their ice cream.
Excellent service great ice cream.. to the Public, tip the people that wait on you, because they are servers, not only take your order but make it as well. Example.. Im behind a family of four telling the server to keep the change which be a whole 28 cents Well how big of them! Dont be so cheap!
I love Dairy Queen. The ice cream is always great and I love so many of the blizzard flavors. I just wish they had more locations closer to my side of town. The closest is in the mall and I would rather not deal with that chaos. But the oleander location is where I normally go even though its out of the way. Cheerful staff and the prices are pretty good for the amount of ice cream you get.
Great place
Always a fan of DQ, however this visit left us waiting in line for almost a half hour. They were busy but with two windows open and only about 10 people in each line, the wait seemed a little longer than it should have been. Also, the Oreo Cookie Jar Blizzard I ordered was handed to me upside down but had the consistency of a milkshake. The rest of our order was good as usual, though.
Always goodWish there was a drive thru
Always an excellent experience here at this location. It does get pretty crazy busy but well worth the wait for a cold treat all year round. Staff while always seems to be different have always been very polite and nice. I loveee the Reese’s anything here haha little pricey but always hits the spot.
I have been a customer at Dairy Queen for over 60 years and have never had such poor customer service as I have had this afternoon in Wilmington, NC. I ordered a chocolate nut sundae, as I have ordered many times before, and was told nuts would cost extra. As this has NEVER been mentioned before, I asked Really? The server said they have always charged extra for nuts and I said I have never been told that before.I gave him my card, ordered a box of sandwiches, too, and the owners daughter-in-law said her family has owned this DQ for many years and have always charged extra for nuts. I told her I am paying what it costs, but just that I had not been told that before. She said I was welcome to go elsewhere. I asked if she was refusing my business and she said I can. Long story short, I got my money back and will not come here again.
You cant beat the Peanut Buster Parfait! I also love the grape Misty Float,give it a try an theyll have a treat to please you!
Great.
An awesome place to go, I’ve never had an issue with Dairy Queen. 💜 Great ice cream for a good price.
It was hot, my kids were a bit cranky from the beach and Dairy Queen delivered a cool treat and smiles. My son had the strawberry with Ghirardelli pieces in it and my daughter had the cotton candy blizzard. Both let me know how good it was. So Im doing the review on their behalf.
Nice place
No complaints. Fast service and nice people. Love the royal blizzard.
The kids who were working there were very unprofessional. The girl who was making our ice cream was complaining about the way we ordered our food and put it together with very little care. Definitely rethinking going back.
We had a ball after the rain getting our ice cream. Quick and nice folks working.
Service was good, product was okay, but very overpriced..5 bucks for a medium blazard..to much ...
Good chocolate milkshakes
Very disappointed. We told them our order she took order and told us how much it was and did not speak to us other than that, looked as if she wanted us to just go away and thats what she did, grabbed her drink and went to the back. The other person working there fixed what we ordered and also never spoke either, no smiles or even look at us. Just set our stuff on the counter and walked away. This was the DQ in the mall in Wilmington NC. Dont have worry about us spending anymore money there.
Only ice cream here but those blizzards are pretty good.
Loved it the ladies that work there are amazing
My treat was very good. Handled a very long line quickly on a hot memorial day weekend evening. Good job.
Service a little slow but ice cream always good.
It would be helpful if you form one line and then go to the window that opens next. Tonight it was not crowded around 8:30. The couple in front of us made it difficult for the clerk inside. We stood waiting for 15 minutes. Meanwhile large families go to other windows on the other side of the building, get their desserts and drive off before I can place my order. This is not the first time this has happened to me and my family. Ill question whether I go here again. And by the way no beard guards are being worn by the men working.. gross
One of the best DQs that I have ever been to. Consistently very good with a very friendly staff.Whenever I am in the mood for a Blizzard or Peanut Buster Parfait, O will go our of my way to get to this DQ.Please keep doing what you do.
The young man at the window last night was pleasant, efficient and even helped us decide what to get. I have been many places that they really dont care if you order anything or not. What a nice way to end our family outing on Moms 84th birthday.
Best DQ Ive been too, the employee Micheal was extreme beneficial and made the experience perfect. Absolutely loved it!
My sister and I just went to this location on 9/11/19 at 10:15 pm and it is posted online and in person that it closes at 11 pm. The woman inside glared at us, refused to open the window, and turned off the lights and the open sign right in front of us. Another couple also walked up and she refused them service as well, even when they too questioned her about the hours sign. She just stood inside and glared at them. This employee was extremely disrespectful and we will never go there again. I’m not sure why she is employed by this location if she refuses service during posted business hours.
The service at this location was quick especially with 4 ordering windows. The ice cream was fresh and the many different items, make the decision hard😊. What a great problem to have.
Since its tourist season they were very busy. Products, vanilla cone and chocolate blizzard(🍌 pecan and chocolate chip) were excellent as always. Take your 🐕 and ask for a dog cup. Small serving of the vanilla and best of all, its free😀
One of the guys was so rude.
They have ALWAYS had the BEST ICE CREAM!!!!! As long as I can remember thats 50 years. GODSPEED
We had hot fudge sundaes in waffle bowl,they were very good. Very nice staff !
So delicious!! The blizzards are dank as can be😋🍦🥶🍨
Excellent Soft Serve.
I’ve been going here since I was a kid and I’ve never had a bad experience. Fast service and extremely friendly staff. My favorite ice cream place in town!
Small chocolate milkshake was great!
The Dairy Queen on Oleander is always top notch. Ive been going there for over 20 years, sometimes randomly and sometimes regularly but they always have a good staff and a very consistent product.
Always a summertime favorite. you really cant beat a blizzard on a hot day. Check out more of my reviews on Instagram @when_i_dine.
Sunday waffle bowl was amazing. The service was extremely quick
The DQ Treat in Wrightsville Beach was a better than usual experience in that the counter help was actually helpful and friendly.
A little crowded but worth the wait
Cute building! So many choices! Nice area to sit and eat outside. The employees are SO nice!
Just desserts at this location. Every time I stop here I have been greeted by friendly people and I have always gotten exactly what I ordered quickly. Great desserts
Very slow service and my heath bar blizzard was pretty much vanilla ice cream. The employees moved like they were wearing lead shoes.
Dairy Queen never disappoints and tonight they are supporting a great cause, the Childrens Miracle Network!
Love DQ ❤️. Ive cream!!!!!
Good customer service, quick service and great place for icecream.
Awesome ice cream but the staff...uhhhhh.
