Customer, ""Could I have a cup of water please?"" Server, ""we're not allowed to give out water."" Customer, ""I'm really hot and would like a cup of water. Would you please get me a cup of water?"" Server, ""No, we aren't allowed to serve water."" Customer, ""You mean you won't give me a cup of water?"" Server, ""no, we are not allowed to. But just around the corner you can buy water for a dollar."" My thoughts were, ""but I just spent thirteen dollars for ice cream, why should I have to spend another dollar for water, and if every one wants water that's another five bucks?!"" .\r
""That's right, they haven't figured out how to give you a cup of water. They don't want to loose an ice cream sale so even when there isn't anyone behind you, they will not give you a cup of water. They claim the water is warm but customer service, to them, dosen't mean trying to figure out how to give you a cup of cold water on a ninety degree day when you feel you are over heating. You can go around the corner and spend a dollar for bottled water. This just happened to me when I brought my grand children and daughter for ice cream today 8/26/09 . It was not busy and all the help refused to give me a cup of water. And to think that over the decade I have lived here, I am sure I have spent HUNDREDS of dollars for ice cream cones and packed ice cream to take home. ""We're not allowed to give water sir!!! ???"" So for all you grand dads, remember, if it's REALLY hot, they REALLY won't give you water. Well, the next time I will try another ice cream shop that smiles and gives you a cup of water.
Pros: good ice cream
Cons: won't give you a cup of water!!!
