Control Tower

Two nights ago stopped at 5 pm to get ice cream to find no one visible t ice crem window. A woman ahead of me had to yell three times to get anyone to show up at the window and they had terrible attitudes. Today I stopped at 6 pm to order food. There was no one at the outside window. I went inside to find no one at the counter but a sign read "order outside" I went back outside to both side windows but found no one. Went to ice creme window to find no one but the window was open. Yelled hello Two boys and one girl appeared and asked me if I wanted to order. I said yes. I would like a cheeseburger. I was imediatley cut off by one of the boys who laughingly said you can't order food here only ice creme. I said there was no one at the food window and explained what I had just gone thru. He said hold on. Then returned to say "now there is someone at the food window " as he be the girl chuckled. I said I guess I don't need a hamburg that bad. To which I heard a "whatever" reply. Wow. So glad that the owner cares about her customers as is states on the company home page. Not the cheapest place in town and with attitudes like this could be a rocky flight plan ! more

I love to support local business and will continue to go to the Tower for ice cream but we've had terrible luck with the food. Hot dogs that I'd be embarrassed to serve (how hard is a hot dog?), burgers burned on the outside, raw on the inside... Fish fries overcooked... Each year we've gone back to try it and this year after another terrible meal have decided we'll stick to ice cream and watch the planes. On the Farm, a few miles east, has much better food. more

The next time you are looking for a great fast food / ice cream place - try the Control Tower. IT is located right behind the airport - so the kids love watching the planes fly in. Their food is great - we've had both dinner and ice cream there and it's always good. They are inexpensive too which makes it an even better find. more
