Baskin Robbins or Dairy Queen?

[lute]

I'm a Dairy Queen Queen myself. Earlier this year they had the banana cream pie blizzard that was simply scrumptious, but like all things which I have a penchant for they discontinued it!

no worries! it will be back! i heard my friend from DQ day that they were going to have to start ordering the stuff for them.

Definitely Coldstone....

If I had to chose between the 2 listed though, I'd chose Baskin Robbins. Can't beat their choice in ice cream flavors, and I'm not a big 'vanilla girl'

I like hard ice cream better than softserve, softserve places are pretty rare - no open Dairy Queens that I know of in our area.

We have a local ice cream shop called Cabots - it has been around for years, and has scrumptious ice cream in many flavors. They also do soft serve, sundeas, frozen yoghurt, sugar-free ice cream, fat-free ice cream, and dairy-free ice cream - tofutti, but it's better, and creamier tasting, I am told, than any other tofutti places.

Anyone who visits Boston in the summer, let me know, and we'll treat you to a Cabots treats of your choice! http://www.cabots.com/ for the curious!

Dairy Queen all the way baby! Blizzards are my favorite!

I haven't been to a Baskin Robbins or a Dairy Queen, since I was a kid. I really love Blue Bell Ice Cream the best, as their slogan says "Blue Bell, the best Ice Cream in the Country" and it sure does seem to be the Ice Cream of choice down here in Texas. There was a salt mine explosion a few years back, near the Blue Bell creamery and I can remember the main concern of most people was if the Blue Bell Cows and the Creamery were unscathed, then as an afterthought, "Oh and I hope no people got hurt either".

For fast food places though, I like Sonic. They have a really good Sunshine Smoothie and Chocolate Cream Pie shake. The dogs are in total agreement on this too. Say "Sonic" and then get out of the way of the stampede, rushing to get in the car.

Between the two I'd have to say DQ because I prefer soft serve. However, my favorite is The Meadows - mmmmm YUMMY! I also like Bruster's, although they have hard ice cream but the flavors are good

I love TCBY and Dip n' Dots(I'm not sure how to spell it though). At TCBY, I always get an Oreo Joe. MMM, those are delicous and at dip n' dots, i get the cookies and cream flavored ones. Those are really cool because they taste just like ice cream, but they are little dots! But out of the two mentioned, I like DQ better. I love their Brownie Batter Blizzard!

Dairy Queen! I'm still mad they discontinued the Strawberry Cheesequake blizzard though.. But my favorite is the Reese's PB Cup Blizzard .. Now I want ice cream..

Dip n' Dots

I love Dip'n Dots!! There isn't one around me, but I always get it at an amusement part an hour or so away from me. They beat the other ice creams, hands down!

whats TCBY?

Stands for "The Country's Best Yogurt". They carry frozen yogurt (tastes just like ice cream).

[lv4dogs]

Neither one of them are very popular in my area. I choose other, Abbotts frozen custard, yummy!!!

There aren't any Baskin Robbins around here and I'm not a big fan of soft serve, but there is an excellent ice cream place in town that makes the best ice cream! They have great flavors and yuuuummmmm it's so good- they're called Heyn's.

DQ since we don't have it here!

I work on the same street as a TCBY...it is always so tempting.

My new favorite place is Brewsters! I got hooked on it while we were living in Tennessee.
Their thing called the "Hot Fudge Brownie" is to die for.

Taken from the website:
Fresh vanilla ice cream, moist brownie, covered with hot fudge, whipped cream… Can you say “decadence?”

Of those choices, definitley Dairy Queen - there's times I get a real hankerin' for a twist cone! But the best by far is Deitsch's, in Findlay- my son said they are even listed in a book of the best ice-cream places in the nation! Of course, there's also Grater's in Columbus - the kids love the tour of the new ice cream factory, too.

[Cincy'sMom]

There is a Baskin Robbins in our block,and a Dairy Queen not too far away...but I would pick Deitsch's (local to Findlay, about 45 minutes from here!). Local to us in Toledo, I would pick Cold Stone or Cold Fusion (same at Cold Stone, but serves Toft's ice cream, Toft's being a nother excellent Ohio ice cream place, local to Sandusky)
