Plus you have Fred's Riiverview down the street for burgers and a great park right across the street to eat your custard instead of exhaust filled parking lots.

I was in Burlington last year to have a great burger at Fred's. Then we went over to Adrian's for custard. That place is a 1970's time warp, down to the old ice cream shop chairs. But I'm sorry to say that both my girlfriend and I thought their custard was the worst we ever had. The consistancy was as if it didn't know what it wanted to be - custard or soft serve. That is not really an issue, but I just didn't care for the taste. I'm not sure what it was. Maybe a bad day? I'd give it another shot, but I thought it was fair at best. I think Kopp's and Scooter's are the two best I've ever had. I have not had Leon's yet nor have I had Ted Drewes. And dare I say it (and shoot my credibility) but I am a fan of Culver's vanilla custard. I just had it near Kenosha on Saturday and it was great.
