Went there last night because it was the only thing open near by. Second time there and I got food poisoning. Avoid their wings! Friendly staff but stay away from their food. Bad! Ice cream is decent!

Order something like for the big stuff to come later. Fentons does not mess around with proportions.

If you are solely talking about quality of icecream, this place is just about average or below. Atmosphere is cool, but that's really it. Go to Lush Gelato instead.
