Goody’s Sunriver Ice Cream, Chocolate Popcorn

UPDATE 8/19: I originally updated this review on 8/1 after trying to reach out to Mark but not getting any response. Within an hour of my update, he emailed me to let me know he had missed my email in spam, and he immediately offered time to talk over the phone. He was incredibly pleasant and listened to everything I had to say without dismissal or judgment. He shared a lot of what it 's been like behind the curtains at Goody 's this year and allayed any concerns I had before, and I can absolutely say he made it right and that I 'll be back. I 've updated this review to have four stars (from its original three) because of that and will give a separate, more complete review once we return. ORIGINAL REVIEW 6/29: It makes me sad to only give Goody 's three stars as it was always a favorite part of Sunriver growing up, and even my own kids have enjoyed it when we 've gone recently. However, our visits in June had a notable decrease in general feeling and quality compared to visits prior to April. Portion sizes are still significant, and the general look has remained constant for the last decade at least, but other things have changed for the worse. Until recently, Goody 's made fresh caramel corn in house, but the caramel corn machine now sits abandoned on the countertop and slightly stale corn is sold in shipped from the factory. Ice cream flavors are also notably less rich than they were until a few months ago, though whether that was a fluke the several days we visited in June or whether it was intentional cost-cutting is unclear. Employees also managed to mess up two of our five orders (partially swapping mix-ins between two shakes), and the three shakes we ordered took about ten minutes to make despite ice cream cones being churned out constantly. Other, subjective changes haven 't been for the best in my opinion, but I understand why others may prefer them. The most notable is the change of employee uniform. Green shirts with a simple logo is certainly more contemporary but the older uniforms played better into the candy shop aesthetic. I really, really wanted to like this more, and I know I have as recently as March of this year. I was worried when ownership changed hands, as that rarely leads to improvement, and I hope that our experiences were an anomaly rather than a sign of things to come. It 's still early, so time will tell. At present, though, I wouldn 't recommend Goody 's over other options in Sunriver or in Bend.

The ice cream was really good I personally had two flavors both really good butterfinger and cookie monster the service was lightning fast and the atmosphere was calm and quiet

Delicious ice cream after a long day at the water park. Prices are decent for Sunriver, but the waffle cones are worth the splurge.

Went to this place and was disappointed.. they skipped 10 orders past our orders, and by the time we mentioned it they ran out of what we ordered despite handing them out to countless orders that were numbered after us.

Overpriced and rather plain ice cream, did half of our order and then forgot about the rest and moved onto other orders. Also long hair in my sons ice cream.
