Stopped in for a quick bite and had the place to ourselves. It was like visiting family, probably better than some…. I don’t think anyone in my family can make homemade pickles like the ones we had with our hot dogs. Attentive service, delicious food, yummy ice cream…. Good old fashioned quality care. We are lucky to have a place like this in our community. Visit often, we all need more ice cream in our lives!

My girlfriend and I love coming here after a hot day at the park. Some of the best local ice cream in town at a very fair price! We will be back many more times

I gravitate to this eatery for lunch whenever I can. There is so much to like about the location, ambience, nostalgia, food, and service. Sitting outside on an open air porch amongst the surrounding greenery is wonderful. The only road noise is from St John and can’t hear any traffic from HVL Rd. The homemade potato salad and pickles are a treat. Where else can one get a Ruben sandwich, side of potato salad and pickles, and drink for under $10. The food is served on plates with silverware. Carrot cake is a nice dessert to share. Left this time with a jar of pickles.

Family-style, family-friendly, family-owned ice cream shoppe. There are so many wonderful sweet options and huge cases of Hershey’s ice cream. There is also a lovely lunch menu with Nathan’s hot dogs, sandwiches, and salads. There is cozy seating indoors and lots of fun spaces outdoors to sit (or swing) while eating. This is a place that has something for anyone in your family. The staff is very kind and very helpful.

I have been going here ever since I was 3. I love the people who run it. I don’t like that they had to move. However, I know it wasn’t by choice.

Found Baabels Ice Cream pop up at Rhythm and Brews in downtown Hendo, it hit the spot! Highly recommend for your next sweet tooth urge.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting your establishment for lunch with a fellow IT partner. I am from Chicago.
Roy, the owner, is fantastic, and the atmosphere of the place is wonderfully welcoming. The food was outstanding! I enjoyed a homemade “Brunswick Stew,” a delicious sandwich, and a Chicago hot dog that truly lived up to its reputation. Although a traditional Chicago hot dog doesn’t include ketchup, it was still excellent.
Overall, the combination of a cozy setting, excellent ownership, and fantastic food makes this place unbeatable in terms of value. I highly recommend it!
Good luck Roy and I hope to be back soon!

Whenever I go to the Asheville area I have to take my granddaughters to Baabals. This is a family owned business with excellent food, wonderful staff and a lovely setting. They also have a sweet consignment shop on the top floor. From the wrap around porch to the lovely decor and food, this is a must do when visiting the Asheville area.
