Banana Boat - Flint

They get 2 stars because we didn't have to wait long. But I must say it was very disappointing. We went here because it was local and not a franchise. I got a mint shake, think they forgot to put the mint in. We also order a raspberry shake. It also had very little flavor. I also wish the employees understood that having a mask on your face doesn't do anything to keep themselves and others safe if they don't wear it properly! All the employees I saw had the mask under their nose.

Get LOADS of delicious ice cream at extremely low prices. They offer soft serve and hand dipped. Any reasonable person would only order a Jr or Small size, anything larger than that and your tummy while certainly be aching later. They have at least 30 different hand dipped flavors including Blue Moon and Superman (Midwestern favorites , Mackinac Island Fudge, traditional flavors like chocolate vanilla, and butter pecan. I ordered the double chocolate almond chip (almonds covered in chocolate and tossed into a vat of chocolate ice cream in a waffle cone. My daughter had chocolate soft serve with sprinkles and my son enjoyed superman. The baby just looked longingly on as he enjoyed his refreshing bottle. They have a variety of soft serve flavors too (banana, strawberry, chocolate, vanilla, twist, etc. as well as sundaes. This place is a gem, though it's certainly not hidden so be prepared to wait in line!

The best place for ice cream if your in the area. So many options for an affordable price. Serving sizes are giant though!

You get more than you pay for here and it's legit ice cream none of that soft serve nonsense, they also have butterscotch, if you're like me and think caramel is overrated, which is surprisingly rare these days as almost no ice cream places carry butterscotch anymore They also have awesome themes from time to time for names and combinations of things come in october and look at the menu The staff are always friendly and courteous and very attentive to at least acknowledge you and let you know they'll be right with you, and they even learn your name after a couple of visits, as ridiculous as it may sound it's like going to a business your friend owns and works at And in an unusual note I think their previous location had bullet proof windows, not sure about the new one

I love lots of ice cream at low prices especially when it 's so Hot out! I was do delighted to see that only a few people was in line when I got there. I must 've came after the lunchtime rush which was ok with me because normally the line is wrapped around the building! Soooo many combinations to choose from. I ended up getting one of my favorites the cherry cordial in a waffle cone. My family got cookies n cream in waffle cone and vanilla twist in cone. They give you large amounts of ice cream. The jr. size was overly enough for any one...it has anywhere from 2-3 large scoops of ice cream! The staff was very friendly and suggested many ideas for those whose unsure of what to get. They even have a policy of try before you buy . So you can sample as many different flavors of ice cream as you want before you make a final decision of what you really want. I love this because at a lot of places you can 't try things and you may get stuck with something you may not like....this usually ends in you buying your usual . So overall I was overlyjoyed, cooled-down, and happy about my experience at banana boat! I think they won me over for every HOT day! Thanks Banan Boat :
