Soft-serve ice cream & signature shakes top the menu at this classic burger & fries fast-food chain.
Their ice cream is more foamy almost like really cold whipping cream. It’s not a pleasant texture. I drive far to another Dairy Queen to get my ice cream. My best friend was a manager at Dairy Queen for years. She told me that it was probably the temperature. I called west Kelowna Dairy Queen to let them know my thoughts. The lady was dismissive and rude, telling me she had other things to do. I just let it go and continue to drive to the other one.
Dave is exceptional. Always asks if you need a minute before ordering. Pleasant to talk to and excellent service and food. Thank you 😊
My problem is price. 5 x snack size, super small, blizzards... $32+. Rediculous. Realize it is all DQs..but still. Even the big giants can fall if they get too greedy.
It's absolutely terrible. Staff not trained correctly. Served me a rotten banana split, and the kid refused to correct it. He said all bananas are brown. The manager/owner was there, but oh, so grumpy. He obviously hates life.
This was such a great place to stop after my ride. I came at a not busy time so I was able to get in and out quickly. They provided good service being quick but not acting rushed. They made a friendly environment. The place was clean. If I remember right, I had the flamethrower burger. 10/10 burger, honestly the best fast food I’ve had.
Ordered Onion rings with my burger, was charged for onion rings and instead received what would be a pitiful amount of fries even had I ordered fries. Because the drive thru line took 20-30 minutes I didn't want to go back. I also wasn't given a receipt (!?) so not much for me to dispute on.
Whoever makes the cakes for this location should consider retiring or offer the sloppily decorated cake at a discounted rate.... This cake looked terrible, ugly letters with random uppercase and lower case..... the actual cake had brutal ratio of vanilla:chocolate ice cream. I worked at DQ as a cake maker 10 years ago at 17 years old and know how simple it is. Take your time, you are decorating cakes for children's birthdays smh
Did the drive through with a car loaded of eager blizzard, dipped cone and peanut parfait consumers! It did not disappoint! The girls that took our order was not only efficient but she had a great sense of humour! We were all delighted!
Excellent service with the staff! Excellent attitude, Alex, you are awesome! Thank you for the great service
Great location! Sadly a puppy cone was actually a $2 kids cone. Too big for our small dog. Not like other brands puppy items. Not the fault of this particular store though Sometimes the drive thru gets long but usually they make your order very quickly
How can you go wrong...going to.a Dairy Queen on a hot Summer night fir Ice Cream and a Milkshake! Just love going there and reminiscing taking out daughter to a DQ as well!!!
Very very good cakes
Bad
I eat here all the time. Food is always fresh. Service is always friendly and fast. Great location.
A double cheese burger combo was 8.00 and change not even a year ago. Now its 12.00 + . How do you justify a 4.00/50% cost increase in less than a year???
The drive thru is so consistently slow it boggles the mind. Expect 25 mins+ most nights, longer if it s hot out.
Way too expensive, $7.00 for a small Blizzard is ridiculous
I dropped into the West Kelowna DQ for my annual birthday Free Blizzard. The manageress only too quickly stated that the West Kelowna DQ DOES NOT offer any Birthday Freebies . SHAME ON YOU. Ive been going to DQs for my Birthday Freebie for several years, only to have West Kelowna DQ NOT honour their Canada -wide program. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID West Kelowna DQ on your Birthday. GOOD RIDDANCE
It was OK not very real tasting cheeseburger..ice cream was good.
Alex helped us this evening with our order! He was super helpful! Helped me figured out the issue I was having with the DQ app! Friendly knowledge and fast service from Alex! Thanks for making our weekend! 10 /10
Drive thru girl not friendly. Order messed up multiple times when I come for a family ice-cream night. Disappointing.
excellent customer service everytime. Fast and efficient, the blizzards are always fully mixed to the bottom! amazing!
Came in for a treat with the kiddo. Dealt with Chase and he was extremely professional and very nice. Will come here again.
We only ever get ice cream treats and they are good. Customer service inside is friendly and quick. Drive thru could be faster and more efficient.
Very disappointed going in today for my usual small plain cone. The cones have clearly shrunk in size (I actually though it was a kiddie cone) and the price has gone up even more. For what you get I can purchase way more icecream at the grocer. My last visit to the DQ. Everyone is pulling this trick these days. They seem to think we are dum not to notice.
Awesome place with friendly staff!! Kid-friendliness: Idk it s icecream Food : 5/5 |
Not sure of the evening guys name (March 2nd 2024) but he was polite friendly and went the extra mile! Great service!
Food was not good staff is very rude
Terrible management. Ridiculous policy of charging $1 for a cup of water without telling you.
I stop here pretty regularly and they are bang on every single time, prompt as possible and as friendly as can be! You wont find a better dairy queen around and Ive been to at LEAST 3 of them Kid-friendliness: Been going here after the pool since I was a little kid and its still the place it was 30 years ago Wheelchair accessibility: I havent seen a smoother graded, easy to go up ramp around.
Parking: Lots of spots Food
Its a Dairy Queen
Terrible attitude/customer service Came at 5 minutes to close and was told I couldnt order food, like are you not open until 10? Kinda ridiculous if you ask me
Closed at earlier than advertised and gave us attitude when asked for an explanation. Not good customer service at all.
Exactly what you expect
Got a blizzard. It was good
Ordered a 6 piece chicken, got 4 piece. Just tried to call and was hung up on.. Annoyed. Food
Best Bacon cheese burger Icecream Food
Workers are nice, but the quality and quantity has gone down so much over the years that its not worth going.
Fast service
My favorite place for bedtime ice cream cravings! Thanks guys!!! Your doing great!
$5.79 for a MINI blizzard. You better be paying teenagers working there $30 an hour. This is just absolutely insane! Let me guess: global supply chain issues due to chip shortages from suppliers . Thieves Update: generic reply below as you can see, link takes you to a corporate circle jerk website, when you fill out the random general response it tries to sell you on a franchise. Nice try DQ. I just want to know how you justify a $6 mini blizzard. Why did $1 product that was half this price 2 years ago skyrocketed ? Explain the enormous price increase. Below is the 2020 price. Fair to say that in 3 years mini will be $12?
Although not my first time going here, this particular Dairy Queen location has been consistently good most of the time. Today was one of those days. Had a load of 5 people in the car, had a somewhat extensive and diverse order and the young lady working the drive thru window was fantastic! Efficient, and even read all our orders back to me. Wait time was reasonable and she got everything correct and most importantly she was engaged and focused on her work, and genuinely seemed happy to be there. The Management here clearly spent some time selecting their staff well instead of the usual drab, un-engaged staff at most places who seem to want to be anywhere but working. Blond girl with an Okanagan tan. Carpet didnt match the drapes, but very efficient and quick, and got the job done right the first time and was pleasant. Thank you!
Stopped there last week 2023 July for my little 3 year old grandchildren to run In and pee they said no He peed his pants and was sooooooo upset rude rude never will I go back to eat again As a
Super friendly service. Joyful staff. Great ice cream!
Drive thru attendant was on the ball and service was fast
Delicious milkshakes!! Real!
After being denied the 2 for $9.00 double cheese burgers at the Lakeshore and Gordon St Dairy Queens in Kelowna a few days ago. I happened to out here a couple days ago and thought Id try to see if this one would do the same. So glad I tried as there was no problem getting them here. And to make things better the girl at the drive thru, Sheena, was very pleasant and the burgers were soo good.
No wall plugs in the boost anywhere for charging or running your device. Dietary restrictions: Lettuce wrap was available Food : 5/5 |
Amazing and fast service. Employees seem happy to work there.
Hit the SPOT .
The Pepsi always taste like it s mixed with Root Beer.
Guy on window was super friendly and helpful . Food is always what I order hot and fast
Go-to place
Great service. I ordered a $9 meal that included a sundae and the young lady asked if I would like it served immediately, but I left it for later. Afterward I asked if it could be changed for a mini blizzard and I paid the difference. Im glad they were willing to accommodate me. The washroom was clean and lacked nothing.
Slowest most confused staff ever.
Riley is an employee that exemplifies what Dairy Queen wishes all employees were like: delightful, exceptional and fun! Made our night!
Very very slow service. Otherwise it was okay.
Service was good kind long at drive through
Love dairy queen and this one is on top of there game all the time
Great old school DQ. They still have butterscotch dipped cones which most DQs dont anymore! Only reason its not a 3 star
Was very nice employees
Great ice cream cakes
Love Dairy Queen. Has the best soft serve ice cream and great burgers to boot. Also great service
Very clean place, although i did take out. Food was made fresh and was still hot when i got home. Ice cream cake was delicious.
Went on Friday night. My wife has asked for a very specific sundae at a number of Dairy Queens, and had no luck. The group that was working that night did exactly what she was looking for. Seems like a small thing but we were pretty happy. Thank you for that.
Good for the value. Its what I expect. Only problem is I think they need to clean their soft-drink machine; everything has a taste of root-beer to it (orange soda, iced tea, and lemonade specifically this last time)
Slow service
My wife and I ordered 2 single mushroom Swiss burgers and we were very disappointed with the little amount of mushrooms and sauce, this used to be one of our favourites but not any more
Food was good. Slushy was too watery though.
This is my favourite DQ in West Kelowna. They will always make my blizzard just right.
Good service
Nice staff.
Foid
Good Food, Good atmosphere, good service
We ordered a cake for a going away dinner with just one days notice. These guys were kind, professional, and the cake far exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much!
My favorite soft ice cream!
Excellent choice in menu and tons of new stuff excellent service and ice cream to die for especially if youre a big ice cream fan like myself and love milkshakes.
Always great BLIZZARDS!!! All around awesome ice creams and orange Julius drinks...... Such a great place for a cool treat on a hot day or evening. When ordering food, its always been made freshevery time Ive gone, unlike some other fast food joints where their foods sits under a heat lamp for who knows how long which isnt very appealing. DQ is a great place to go with great service, value and quality treats. Parking: Theres plenty of parking available Kid-friendliness: Kid menu and sizes available Wheelchair accessibility: Dairy Queen has wheelchair accessible parking and there seating available. I must say though they do need a push button for the door for people who have wheelchairs ect.
A big rave to the Dairy Queen on Dobbin Rd. for being beyond helpful in sorting out my online order for an ice cream cake today. I left with a beautiful birthday cake. Thank you!
Looks like my review was deleted. Staff is usually rude high school girls and are super slow. Have had more than a handful of genuinely terrible experiences.
Food was excellent, very hot and correct.
Great good. Fast service. Dietary restrictions: Diabetes
Best ice cream around. Weve found that not all DQs are equal and this is our favorite
Who doesnt love Dairy Queen!
Clean fast courteous
Went through the drive through ordered a skor/cookie dough blizzard. But got a Reese s blizzard, didn t notice till halfway home when I had a bite. Was very annoying, good thing I don t have a peanut allergy.
I ordered a blizzard they went to prepared for me, after 25 minutes waiting in the windows drive-thru I start to horn because nobody gave me my ice cream, then Noah showed up in the window and gave me the ice cream melted, I told him I dont want it, I asked to redo it. Then I asked Noah for explanation and names and he refused to give me the information, very mean guy trying to scape from the problem, after that Gracie appeared and I ask her name. Terrible service never comeback, very mean people. Check the video camaras Im telling the truth. And also I record everything. 35 minutes waist there. And a lot of gasoline keeping my truck running. Kid-friendliness: Never comeback. Noah and Gracie.
I went to have hamburgers for dinner, and the meat is too greasy and they hurt me, my stomach hurt.
Blizzard, great!!! Lots of flavors !!! A bit expensive, but for quality. I remember being a part of inventing the blizzard, at the Kelowna Dairy Queen back in the early 70s when I worked at Freds Boat Rental, on the foot of Queensway !!! Food
A great place with great staff and food. The business also donated and gives back to the local community a ton Kid-friendliness: Great place for kids, lots of parking and wheelchair friendly
The other day it was my sons first birthday and the place I had order the cake from messed it up and couldn t fix it. I had checked all over town and finally Dairy Queen said they could help fix the cake, it was very generous of them for taking in someone else s work and fixing it. I highly recommend this place very nice people, they saved me just one hour before his birthday! Thank you
Great staff but to the management; please bring Mobile ordering already it is almost 2023. Kind of a shame to run things in the old ways still at this age.
Friendly service with all thar DQ stuff.
Best in town
They are always hit in my book. Never a long wait even when there is a long line. Consistent products quality and great service. We are 25 year loyal customers and always happy with service and products.
Always great service.
Food is always hot and tasty. Hamburgers are the best. Beats McDonalds, A&W, Wendys hands down. Fries are awesome. Would recommend this place.
By far the best burger in town!! Always fresh, order is always right.. this is how business is done!
Actually fast drive-thru times for Dairy Queen.
We called and ordered a special order...a Dairy Queen gluten-free log cake for my daughter s birthday. She is in her 30s but has Always had a DQ Cake for her BDay lol. They were very nice on the phone and fulfilled the order. We picked it up through their drive-thru and took it home. My daughter was delighted! The cake was so yummy! It was half vanilla, half chocolate with fudge in the middle and so so good! Thank you DQ
What can I say I still need my icecream cone fix. Lobby closed but drive thru open.
Was not that good, I ordered a banana split a mint oreo blizzard a strawberry sunday and a chocolate dipped cone and when I went to pay what I received was a mint oreo blizzard a chocolate dipped cone and a chocolate sunday and no banana split??? How hard was this order to fill?? Must have been really difficult!
Unprofessional and disorganized, Any other Drive-Thru would be better
Efficient and courteous service always
Ice cream cones are to small for price they are!
Dont use if youre a rewards point collector. For some reason they are not getting on board with the app.
Ive been going to this DQ since I was 13 and only ever have good experiences. I go here over other locations if I can :)
Good spot to stop for a turn and burn to Westbank from the lower mainland..
Wont use point collector trying to save money or course
Very good!
Its dq
Very fast and efficiant probably the fastest Ive ever been through a dairy queen drive through keep up the good work
Let me start by saying that the staff is great, but the manager and owner not so much. First time I had a problem was a couple of years ago when I called this location to get blizzard cupcakes. I wanted 6, but 3 different kinds but was told that I could only get all 6 of one kind. Called the other location in West Kelowna and it was no problem to getting this from them. Thought I would try this location again in May, 2021. Ordered a turtle blizzard cake for my friends birthday. Spoke to the manager, asked her some questions as Im looking online, explained that my friend loves turtles and she asked if I wanted to get happy birthday on top, I said sure. Got home with it and noticed there was no turtle topping on it, just plain white with writing. Served the cake and then noticed no blizzard middle layer as it is in picture, instead it was fudge cookie layer. Called, spoke to same manager. Asked what happed to turtle topping on top, she explained that she cant put writing on cake with topping so she didnt add it. Asked why this was told to me, she said You Didnt ask I was shocked with the response. Then asked about middle layer why it wasnt blizzard, was told that it isnt made that way, but I mentioned pic with it showing and she said it shows the cookie layer, I must be not looking at same pic. I contacted Dq head office and they explained that it should be made with blizzard topping in middle and would pass to the owner and include the managers attitude and get him to call me about it. Over a week later and no response, I called and spoke to Dave, part owner, he explained he was busy... away for awhile.. He did agree that manager didnt have to speak to me that way but as for the cake it was made correctly and head office was wrong, but said he would make it up to me when it comes time to order my next one. Sent Dave an email in July asking to order a cake and to contact me, 5 days later no response, called Dave, he explained again that he is busy... Asked about cake and he offered $10 off, i didnt think that was right, he asked what i thought, said half off, which works out to be $18 off. He said he cant, too much money to lose. Well now he has lost a customer.
Worst experience and service Ive ever had I even paid for items I didnt even get they even forgot my Pepsi for 32$ I got 2 fries 2 burgers and a shake wow. Might as well go to the keg
Riley was a really really big help in picking up my daughters birthday cake she went above and beyond thank you so much
Pretty poor service. Four staff working, clearly wanted to go home early. Arrived at 9:50. Couldn t get a simple chocolate dipped cone because their ice cream was too soft. Blizzards that we revived were pretty melted. Turned away the cars that pulled in behind us because they said they were closed at 9:58. If I were the manager of this location I would be very disappointed of the service of the staff.
The two chicken strips for the kids meal was the size of a chicken nugget. They were tiny and very dry. Usually they are alot bigger. No indoor dining whereas everywhere else has it. Especially being 42 degrees, smoky, and one dirty picnic table outside. Next time Ill just go to white spot and actually get a decent meal, since its literally a dollar more.
You sit and wait 10 min for your order while the 12 year old girls are eating fries and ice cream infront of you while they re working pretty gross while you re waiting for your food
Best dq Ive had in awhile. Service was kinda rushed but order was accurate and food was great.
I ordered cheese curds and all I got was a bag of firm, unripened cheese
Very nice location this one , great icecream plus burgers and fries
Good fast food at a reasonable price.
Food was fresh, loved hot chocolate
Fast food he way its supposed to be - fast!
They still hv the ingredients from one of my favorite blizzards from the summer.
Quick service good food and nice staff what more do you want.
Friendly staffs with quick service, the environment is nice and clean! The brownies and blizzards are tasty.
Love chocolate dipped cones!
Very good service.
Not impressed with the lack of treats in blizzards. Will not be returning to this location (because I dont live anywhere near it)
This location always manages to get the order completely correct with no issues.
I appreciate that due to covid the drive thru is the only option but Ive twice ordered banana splits and it almost seems as tho these are premade as they are half melted. The burger I ordered tonight along with the onion rings were definitely made quite some time ago and it was disappointing.
Best Mushroom Swiss burger I have ever had at Dairy Queen. Perfect amount of sauce and cooked to perfection. Your cook deserves major kudos.
This DQ has absolutely amazing service and very friendly workers
Very disappointed. First place during this pandemic I go to, to pick up a cake for my mums birthday. In the drive-through window I can see 3 employees, all young girls. No masks. No gloves.
Always fast drive thru. Manager is a good guy. Clean girls working there.
Its a Dairy Queen, what else do I have to say?
Ahhhhhh- ice cream on a hot day!
Fast, accurate service
Received the best customer service from a lovely lady with funky green glasses! We had just come from a terrible experience somewhere else and she was a breath of fresh air. Blizzards were awesome. Thank you!
The young man who served us did a great job and made the BEST Triple Chocolate Brownie EVER. Very satisfied
Wnent to get my sons bday cake and they where closed in the middle of the day with a paper sign in the door
Two large potholes in entrance staff seemed to not care. Both size of tire and 4 deep.
Great food, great service almost every time, great hours, great selection. I have a large family both immediate and extended, this location is our Go-To whenever we need somewhere that all the kids will agree on. Rarely disappointed with service or quality.
Bottom of the barrel fast food fair, meh.
i love banana splits
Didnt eat there it was too busy
the ice cream and treats are good. but one thing that is getting ridiculous is that every time I go there and I get a certain employee making my blizzards there is an issue EVERY TIME they make them. drips always on the outside of the cup running down as theyre handing them out the window. I mean cmon what a joke! I dont want ice cream pooling at the bottom of my cup holder. Also any time one of the younger guys answers the intercom they are always cheerful and no matter what special things I ask for they always say they will see what they can do. And I dont mind paying a little extra to get a mix of ingredients in my blizzard. I just wish all the staff shared the positive attitude that some members do.
Great for cooling off and sitting in having a frozen treat :)
Staff is very friendly, the food is hot, the wait is minimal and the tables are always clean.
Good customer service
It was good great friendly service. Clean and comfortable. The only thing ia the burgers are not as good as they used to be when they were cooked on a grill
The staff here are amazing. Order is always 100% correct. Large banana split BLIZZARD is perfectly made for me every time (thanks to Dave )
Food is great
Very friendly good place to eat
Always great.
