Dairy Queen

I love this location! They bring you the food quickly (usually within 3 min.) and the prices are excellent! My only suggestion would be to have healthy alternatives for people on diets. Sometimes the food is very greasy, but if you order something like the wraps, it’s fine.

Staff is always friendly here. They have the full menu and always are quick to get you through the drive through.

Meh:
The Peanut Buster Parfait (which the disinterested counter-​person echoed back to me as «Peanut BUTTER Parfait») seems to have been hit with the Incredible Shrink Ray, i.e. it’s about 60% the size it was 30 years ago. But it tasted fine.
My low rating is due to the charmless kids that work there and their yelling to each other with some juvenile jest. «Eeeewwww!», one young woman yells as she exited the back room with her lunch in-​hand; some male worker yelled something back and they all laughed. Then there was the high (or mentally «away») freckle-​faced counter-​woman who couldn’t care less about us, our order … or even being there. Please, management, fire the workers who hate their jobs, because there hundreds that will take their place. And your business will probably benefit.

Horrible I will never go here again. I thought it might of improved with the reconstruction but it got worse. I saw dead bugs. All tables where dirty. Service was rude and everyone was gossiping in groups and seemed lost I guess that’s what you get when your entire staff is a bunch of high school kids unsupervised. No parking. Drive threw line was way to long. Not worth the wait, money or service. If your looking to spending money and having a decent ice cream do not go here at all

For the record, I LOVE DQ. Love it. One of my favorite places, can’t beat Hot eats and Cool treats. However, this particular location made 2 changes that will probably turn me away… changed Hamburger buns (definitely more bread than usual in the bun) and removed coconut from Blizzards altogether. No Coconut!!! WTF is that all about? Blasphemous if you ask me. The only way they can recover is to add back in coconut and bring back the Krunch Kote as well.

Talk about getting blown off. Here is what I get a week after sending an e-​mail with this review

Wow I’m no «fan» and your «relations» is more then sub-​par. Needless to say it’s been 2 weeks and still no one locally or in the Franchise office seems to have enough concern to contact me other then the e-​mail reply above. Be warned this local DQ want’s your money, but delivery of Product or Service by this location, well they feel that is optional.
I wanted to note: I posted this on 4÷27÷2015. It is now 7÷31÷2015 and DQ has chosen not to respond to me at all other then the Corporate note above. But I have gotten several messages on Unilocal form other DQ patrons — mentioning how «Dirty» the place is, and how «it’s like a high school hallway» where all the workers just gossip instead of working. Looks like I’m not the only one who isn’t a fan.

I have always loved Dairy Queen growing up. The new building is awesome and I love it. There’s much more room and it’s well-​kept. Instead of waiting in line now, they bring the food to you and it’s out quickly.
My only suggestion is to come up with a more diet-​friendly menu. Sometimes the food can be really greasy and unhealthy. A little less grease would be great. Also, fries are high in cholesterol, so maybe for those who have issues with their cholesterol, Dairy Queen might want to consider offering an alternative to fries, like maybe a side salad. Finally, for those watching their weight, they might want to consider offering diet-​friendly portions or the option of having condiments, such as mayonnaise on the side.
However, if you’re looking for a different fast food type dining experience, this Dairy Queen might be a good choice. The price is right, and with summer coming, you also have the option of dining outside, which is not something some fast food establishments offer.

Dairy Queen is not a perfect pairing with Burger King. The soft serve monarch rules over a much better realm. The ice cream is consistent and has a good texture. The cones are fine, but it’s the crunch coat that makes it worth the trip at all.
This location also has burgers on the menu. They are fresh and juicy. It is surprisingly good. I’ve never had a full meal (burger & ice cream) here, but only as a matter of timing. If I can ever get it together and organized. I’m sure I’ll do both and thoroughly enjoy it.

A conveniently located venue of poor quality makes for a kind of inconvenience; a trap, a dissatisfying diversion. To add insult to injury, my car wouldn’t turn over when I tried to start the engine and I was stuck in its dismal lot for about thirty minutes. To be sure, this is the last time I will ever visit a DQ; however, my review is not about DQ as such, but this particular one. Despite its various superficial attractions (e.g. its size, drive-​through capability, felicitous coloral arrangement, indoor and outdoor seating), this DQ was a momentous disappointment. The food comes suspiciously fast (all fast-​food considered), and the food isn’t very good. The customer service also leaves much to be desired. If you decide to visit this DQ, let me just say: if the young people behind the counter are staring at you dumbly, it’s not you.

Now here’s the thing…
Dairy Queen in Salem NH went away about 18 years ago. The approximate site was where the current Hess station stands, which used to be our beloved US Gas.
Recently, I’m working in Nashua, NH, and my drive there takes me past Dairy Queen on 111 in Hudson. So, of course, I wanted to stop and check it out.
DQ is a ‘summertime’ establishment, and is only recently pushing at 12 month service. Is it worth stopping at in December, if you just want a burger and fries?
Well, I suppose its not so bad. The ‘Flame Thrower’ burger has about the same ‘zip’ as a stick of Big Red gum, but loaded with 2 beef patties, cheese, hot sauce, etc., I suspect the real ‘flame thrower’ effect takes place 6 – 18 hours later. Hope you have some reading material handy.
I will update this soon, when I try the ice cream type stuff. When I haven’t worked a 10 hour day and have a 40 munute drive home, and ice cream for dinner at 7 at night before you’ve had your actual dinner actually sounds like a good idea.

I love Dairy Queen! This DQ is on Rt 111 in Hudson and I was on my back from Nashua and I stopped in for a cool treat.
I love the flurry with snickers.
They also have hot dogs and burgers, chicken tenders, coke products, and of course all kinds of tempting ice cream treats and novelties.
This DQ has the classic domed red roof.
Prices reasonable.
