Great ice cream, prices aren’t bad for the portion size, and the lady at the drive thru was just as nice as can be.
Definitely worth the stop.
Quick Verdict: I would recommend Biggins’ to anyone looking for tasty ice creams that can be dipped! I would come back.
The wife and I had coney dogs and the mother-in-law had the chicken salad sandwich. I’ve had a few coney dogs around here in northeastern ohio and this is definitely the sweetest dog I’ve had by far. The buns were sweet and so was the sauce. I feel as though an ice cream shop should have food that is more savory and leave the sweetness to the ice cream and other sweet things. I had the “footlong” coney dog and it was just two standard dogs side by side. I finished them so they weren’t terrible but after eating ice cream my stomach was just overloaded with sweets. I feel as though if they just left the sugar out of the sauce it would be great. I got a sweet tea (in hindsight not a good idea) and it didn’t really taste freshly brewed and tasted concentrated from the tap. The mother in law liked her sandwich.
Now, this is Biggins’ BIG DIP so I’m not really going to let the food kill the rating for this place as they are known for the ice cream and dipped cones so of course we had to try it. I had the peanut butter cup in a cake cone dipped in chocolate. The wife had a chocolate and vanilla swirled cake cone with crunch coat and sprinkles coated around it. The soft serve is typical ice cream and made with a cream base and is smooth and enjoyable to eat. My ice cream was a handmade flavor with peanut butter swirl and peanuts mixed in chocolate ice cream. This was a nice way to enjoy peanut butter cup as most people just mix in reese’s in their ice cream and call it a day. The chocolate was rich and not overpowering and there was plenty of peanut butter swirl to make it known that it was not just chocolate ice cream you were eating.
Overall, I like the fact that you can get different flavors besides vanilla and chocolate dipped! There’s not a lot of places offering dipped cones around here so this is definitely a gem for that reason. The different homemade flavors that can also be dipped is a nice touch, I would probably just avoid the savory food here unless sweet savory food is your thing. But one thing is for certain, I would definitely come back for the dipped cones!
Try them out!
