Dairy Queen

Very disappointed with this Dairy Queen location.
There is no Drive-​Thru (I am OBSESSED with drive-​thrus, by the way), so that is VERY disappointing. 2 stars for having a good, large, outside seating area and for at least being in Quincy. Yet I’ll stick with the Natick Dairy Queen, with a drive thru.
Also BE CAREFUL. This parking lot is EXTREMELY dangerous. I saw 3 «almost» accidents occur. YIKES.

I was very disappointed as how poorly they made the blizzard I asked for, i was told they don’t participate in the Dairy Queen promotions, fine but at least come close to what I’m ordering! The woman making it was clueless as how to make one! She made a mush of a blizzard which was uneatable. $ 4.50 down to trash!

I just don’t understand. I took a nap on the t to get to DQ by 10 and bad boy was closed. #Boo

Let me start off by saying that I love Dairy Queen. I was excited when this location opened for the season as it’s the closest one to Boston. Tonight I went out of my way to Dairy Queen for one of their blizzards of the month, peanut butter cookie dough smash. I’ve had it at several other dairy queens and it is amazing and my favorite. I called ahead to make sure they have it and they told me yes they do.
Once I drove up I saw they had a list of «exotic blizzards» that I haven’t seen at other locations. I waited in line and the nutter butter blizzard caught my eye. I asked the lady who was taking my order about it and she said they do not have it. I don’t know why it’s on the list if they don’t have it. I decided to go ahead and order the peanut butter cookie dough smash blizzard I had driven there for. I told her to hold the cookie dough.
She came back with a blizzard in her hand that was made out of Oreos. I have ordered this at multiple dairy queens and they are always made with peanut butter cookies as it says on their website. Never has it had oreo cookies. I was so confused and asked her why there are Oreos rather than peanut butter cookies. She was such a dope and did not know what to answer me. She said I asked for no cookie dough. She went and got a man I assume was the owner. He told me here they make it with Oreos. I told him the description says it’s made with peanut butter cookies and I have ordered it many times. He said they don’t have them here. This made me so mad! I specifically had called in advance to make sure they have this blizzard and not their phony made up version of it. The peanut butter cookies are what makes the blizzard.
So the owner decided to take my order rather than the dopey girl. I was hoping this would mean the blizzard would come out better since he had so much experience making them. Wrong. It sucked. I ordered a small blizzard made with peanut butter sauce and vienna cookies. There were so few cookies in it that I could barely taste them. What little I tasted did not seem like vienna cookies, more like graham crackers. The peanut butter flavor was faint. The consistency sucked and kept melting as I ate it. What hurt the most was the cost. $ 4.50 for a small shitty blizzard. This is much higher than what I’m used to paying for a small.
They do not participate in promotions and do not flip your blizzard upside down as the hand it to you (probably because it would spill out if they did).
Dairy Queen Quincy was a total let down. I do not recommend going to them if you’re wanting to try a blizzard of the month. Chances are you’ll get a weak imitation. Beware that prices are significantly higher than other dairy queen stores.
They ruined my night and I want my 700+ calories back.

When in the middle of the summer, it’s never enough ice cream time. And while it is easy for me to stock up as many of my fav flavors in my freezer — nothing compares to a great DQ BLIZZARD! It’s sheer Bliss in a cup. With a long red spoon that makes eating my favorite ice cream so much easier. Simply Super.
This location of DQ is one of my must go to’s for so many reasons. Some of them are as follows:
— it is located right on route 3A towards Hingham /​Hull. It’s so easy to just pull over while on the way to or from Hingham Shipyard whether it’s for movies or trader joes groceries or shopping in general. Good for the people who live on the other side of the fore river bridge who take this route.
— again it’s the same way to or back from the gorgeous Nantasket beach. There have been days when I get a small blizzard before the beach and a large one after. Simpler joys of life.
— parking is so easy at this location. Enough parking spots in front and on the side of the joint. So easy — despite being on a high traffic route. Plus there is a red light, right next to the place. So getting in and out is so easy no matter which direction you are coming from.
— finally, the staff. Great set of kids, always working hard and real fast, in doing the efficient job of fixing your blizzards (and all the assortments of cold goodnesses) the way you want. They deserve hearty tips. Great job.
Thanks for making this one a happy blizzard lovah!

I’ve always been a big fan of Dairy Queen growing up, but I avoid this location as much as possible and will never go again. It is right next to the auto body shop I go to, which is the only reason I’ve given it more than one chance.
For starters, I’m bombarded with DQ promotions that this location does not accept. It is the only location I’ve come across that won’t, and it’s a HUGE turn off.
I go for the blizzards, and both times I’ve been to this location, the mix ins have been so sparing that they are basically just blended vanilla ice creams. Most recently, I tried the confetti cake blizzard and the cake pieces were few and far between, and the pieces that WERE in there were stale.
While I LOVE Dairy Queen, I do not recommend this particular location at all. They seem to cut corners wherever possible and there are many other better ice cream parlors in Quincy.

Great soft serve location. Seasonal, so when it opens, that means summer is right around the corner. Great selection of nontraditional blizzard flavors, friendly staff, and consistent quality since there’s been the same owner for decades.

I’ve been here 3 or 4 times now when craving a Blizzard, and every time it has been sub-​par — stale Oreos, not enough topping, over-​blended. Overpriced and don’t honor DQ promotions. Sad.

DQ ice cream is great — this goes without saying. Historically, I get Buster Bars or Heath Bar Blizzards, but lately I’ve been ordering the Blizzard of the Month instead. Remember: Dilly Bars are for pussies with peanut allergies. Get a Buster Bar. Even if you’re allergic to peanuts. What are you holding on for? Your life is not worth living.
My criticism of this location is that is could be cleaner inside and out. Also, this location does not participate in DQ promotions. Perhaps the ice cream baron that owns this gold mine could take the extra money and spruce the place up a bit.
Lastly, the service was good.

For the soft serve, this place is delicious and smooth.
They have delectable chocolate dip for the soft serve too. Better than Dairy Freeze on the Milton/​Quincy line. (Their’s is good, this is perfect though).

After a few hours at Great Hill (right up the street), I needed something cold to drink. I pulled in to the DQ and right in front of my car was a Coke machine, a Pepsi machine, and a Powerade machine. Do I get a Pepsi? Coke? Canada Dry ginger ale? Jagged Ice Powerade? I cannot make this kind of decision. Why would they put three different beverage machines side by side. Especially so close to Great Hill where most people aren’t thinking right anyway! Still trying to figure out my choice on how to quench my thirst, my date decides she wants ice cream. She gets out of the car and walks over to the menu that is on the front wall of the building. When she steps under the bright fluorescent white lights that line the overhang of the general waiting area, I finally get a clear look at what she looks like. The bright lights were so un-​friendly to her that I took off and left her there. Luckily there is a Pizza Hut across the street with a fountain soda machine that has nothing but coke products. I got a medium diet coke.

Who doesn’t like a dipped cone? I’m not a huge soft serve fan, but I do like DQ’s. The portions are generous and the fact that they have a coffee swirled soft serve its awesome. Their ice cream isn’t too crazy sweet, so I like that too.
If you go during the summer, there is always a wait. So please be patient.

Made the mistake of going here twice. I’m pretty sure it’s more expensive than other DQ’s and both my blizzard and my boyfriends were terrible, no toppings at all. Gross.

1. I ordered a blizzard.
2. she made my blizzard.
3. she went to charge my card
4. while she’s away, i start eating my blizzard
5. she comes back to ask if i have cash, because the machine is «broken»
6. i dont have cash — she runs my card again
7. still broken — she asks me to GO TO THE ATM which is nowhere in sight
8. I oblige, thinking maybe this blizzard is worth it
9. She tells me I have to LEAVE MY LICENCE behind
At this point, I decide my blizzard is NOT worth it, I put the thing back on the counter and have to PRY my card from her hands.
Fast-​forward 24 hours… what do I see in my online banking? Two charges for a blizzard I never ever got. What a joke. I will not be returning.

Although I’m a huge DQ fan and live minutes away from this location I really don’t like this one… first of all the owner is beyond creepy… as long as I can remember he has only had young girls working there… while sitting in my car eating my ice cream I’ve seen him always touching the girls for some reason and since it is such a small area he always seems to have something to do (most times it looks like something that could wait) that means he needs to squeeze by the girls constantly which seems very inappropriate to me. Plus he doesn’t participate in any DQ promotions, why would DQ allow that, it doesn’t look good for their brand. Dairy Freeze on Adams Street is much better, they have hard and soft serve plus delicious food… a little further away but worth the drive…

Big props for all the off-​the-​wall Blizzard combos listed on the specials menu (pineapple and peanut butter sauce? ginger snaps and cherry? Sure, why not?), but otherwise this place is pretty rough. Two windows = crippling long lines, no matter how many people they have scurrying round back, and their staff, no matter how efficient and friendly, is not nearly as comely as that at other DQs.

Every now and then I have a craving for a DQ blizzard. I enjoy coming here mostly because they have a parking lot and because it isn’t too far a drive for me. The lines are not too long but usually there’s only one person behind the counter so it is slow. I usually get the chocolate extreme blizzard. The ice cream is excellent and the chewy brownie bits just add to the taste.

Place Sucks!
I saw this advert for a DQ food promotion on TV. I went there and waited inline for 15 mins only to be told they dont participate in DQ promotions. They have a small sign on the window that says so which the woman rudely pointed out. Plus, she added that they dont serve food anyway… Only ice cream… PS. The owner is priced higher than other DQ that I have been too…

This has been my go-​to Dairy Queen since I was a kid.
Don’t expect great deals, don’t go there and be pissed you have to wait in line, and don’t expect the service to be fast. Despite those things, this place is great and I will always go the minute it gets hot out to the minute the Fall comes.
My faves? Cherry dipped vanilla soft serve, Butterfinger Blizzard, and the strawberry milkshake.

My kiddie cone sucked! it was a pile of ice cream. a long.ice cream no swirls! My blizzard was finee. too bad they don’t take promotions! :(But I’ll come back since I live so close if I want ice cream. It’s just ice cream, you can get better ice cream at Ben and Jerry’s.
