Frosty Treat Dairy Bar

I've been to Frosty Treat several times per year over the past five or so years as my family and I vacation in nearby Summerside. I include that detail so that you know this review comes from multiple experiences over a long period of time: don't bother with the food, the ice cream is the only reason to visit this establishment.First, the positive. The soft serve ice cream is so rich and dense, it's like a cross between regular ice cream and soft serve. I mostly just eat the ice cream plain now. Dairy Queen's soft serve is not even in the same league. Go ADL! The nutty dip is one of my favorites, perfect combo of ice cream, peanuts and chocolate. It's the best when the chocolate dip is still warm.The deep fried Mars bar is also amazing. It should come standard with peanuts but doesn't so be sure to ask for some.The negative: the food they serve is poor quality and most of the time isn't prepared well. What inspired me to finally rate this restaurant was the chicken and ribs. The chicken was over cooked (which you actually have to try and do with thigh and drumstick meat) and the ribs (the cheap ribs with the flat bones) were tough and pink in parts. The gravy was bland and watery and the veggies were mushy. All of this for the low low price of $20! They only have frozen French fries which should be illegal in the potato province.In fact, nothing on their menu seems fresh or homemade. And if someone from Frosty Treat reads this and disagrees, if the food is fresh it's prepared so terribly as to remove that quality of the food.The only thing I've never tried on their menu are the sandwiches.Their staff don't know anything and always have to go find someone even for the simplest question which is probably due to a poorly trained seasonal workforce but is frustrating for the customer nonetheless.It's tough cause as a dairy bar it's a 5 but as a restaurant it's a 1 and so I rated it a 3.

Was very disappointed when I heard that Frosty Treat bought the only good dairy bar in Kensington. Every time I've been here through out the years I ether feel sick to my stomach. Prices are way to high for the quality and the quantity of food you get. Also to high of prices for the service you get.

Frosty treat seems like the local hangout place to get fast food and fantastic ice cream! Definitely would recommend to try, we visited twice in a 5 day trip! The only drawback is that it is pretty pricey for the type of food, but it's good!

The new owner made a lot of physical improvements but some of the food quality has declined. Example: fish burgers are not nice. Fries are a bit greasy.
