Union Sheet Metal Worker's 1-star review declared: "It’s just your typical DQ ice cream…nothing too fancy compared to Cherry Bomb tho! I mean Cherry Bomb is 100 times better! Very small inside here, but Cherry Bomb blows DQ out of the water! Hands down!"

Key and Peele's 1-star review stated, "It’s not DQ’s fault for us having not one, not two, but THREE ICE CREAM places in BOTH TOWNS?! Missey Moorman, the mayor of Channahon, I hope you’re seeing this because this is ridiculous! We need an actual restaurant like for our town!"
