    I go to DDSS so I’m basically right beside Dairy Freeze and I go there all the time. The food is always amazing, and I’ve never had a bad experience coming here. 100/5

    One of the best places for some quick food, they have burgers, dogs, sausages, fries, fried food (that is really good), poutine, wraps, salads, smoothies, kids menu, and desserts. They also seem to have food for your dog if you take one :p. Comfortable enclosure for ordering in the winter, nice shade in the summer, and an outdoor dining area too :) Really good food, friendly people, decent prices :) Update: they changed how they do their fries a little bit: they are even better :)

    We went to this place after a walk! The ice cream was really good and we sat down at the patio area! It was really nice, it looks like they’re doing some renovations and I can’t wait to see what it will look like once it’s all done. They even have lights hanging from the poles to the building and I bet it will be nice sitting under them one evening with one of their grill options. The lady who was working there was very friendly! Highly recommend!

    CASH ONLY!!! Visiting the area and wanting to support a local small business we were excited to give them a try. We placed our order and I handed the young lady my visa and she said "we are cash only" so I apologized and handed her my debit card to wich she sternly replied "CASH ONLY!" I then responded "that would be nice to know before a customer comes up to the counter... perhaps... a sign?" To which her response was "I'm sorry but MOST people know" So... we didn't get ice cream that visit. The place seemed inviting enough with outdoor seating and lots of parking. Just make sure you BRING CASH.

    I'm driving through Delhi and pulled into a locally owned grill. Everything was fresh. Locally sourced meat, fresh cut fries, and the milkshakes are to die for. What a great hidden gem on highway #3 in Delhi ! You can sit on the patio outside. You will not be disappointed, our family will be back!

    Stubby’s Grill and Dairy Freeze. I honestly don’t even want to tell you about this place. You might end up lineing up and making my wait time for more food longer. I’m also embarrassed that I have never been here before. This place has existed here at 319 James St in Delhi since 1961. I couldn’t even try and fathom the amount of times I have passed this place and never stopped here. I thought it was ice cream only. Tonight we tried Dairy Freeze for the first time. If I can give you three pieces of advice. 1. Order a head of time. This hidden gem is popular with those who know about it. 2. CASH ONLY. 3. Parking fills up fast. We got a Big M, bacon cheese burger, chili cheese fries, loaded fry, chicken nuggets and fries for the kids and a PEANUTBUTTER MILK SHAKE. If there is any food that can rival my love for coffee and bacon. It’s peanut butter.  The burgers are fresh local beef(Norpack and Vanessa meats). Fresh cut fries that are exactly like an iconic chip wagon fry. Some salt and malt vinegar and you will be happy. The toppings on the fries are made in house. Actual chili(with a hint of sweet. Almost reminds me of manwich) even my kids loved it. Real bacon on a loaded fry. The chicken nuggets were solid. My daughter said they’re better than McDonalds. There is plenty of outdoor sitting and we enjoyed our meal at a picnic table while several people stopped to pet our dog. Chicken wing loved the attention. If you go. Go with patients. This isn’t fast food. It’s fresh food. Enjoy some sun and fresh air.
