Reccently, while my Wife and I were on our honeymoon in Hawaii, we got the pleasure of trying Cold Stone. First, I want to tell you I am deffinately not a big ice cream fan (typically I'd prefer to buy a quart, and eat it at home; that is until I found Cold Stone) and on top of that, I'm not too keen on big chains. While in Hawaii my wife and I ate there many times and just love the place. It by far tops baskin robins and any local creamery. The price is a tad up there, but it is most deffinately worth it. Since, being back here in Minneapolis we have not had the privelege of trying the local stores, but if they are even 1 tenth of the Hawaii store they'll be fantastic!!!!
P.S. Give them a tip and have the sing, it's histarical!
Pros: Fresh Ice Cream, Great Service, Tip'em & they'll sing
Cons: A Bit Pricey, Can Be Crowded, But Still Great
