I asked for a custom cake (pumpkin pie Blizzard) and they went above and beyond delivering a BEAUTIFUL cake!! I’ve purchased several ice cream cakes now and been impressed with the quality and flavor! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! PS: Blizzards and customer service are excellent too!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Chris Trueman · Dec 2025

The staff here are so friendly and this location serves Orange Julius smoothies, which not every DQ serves. This location is not a DQ "Grill & Chill" so hot food is limited to some microwave hot dogs. I'd only recommend going here for ice cream, ice cream cakes and smoothies.

I have been to several DQs in the DMV. This one is hands down the best. The customer service is great. The staff actually talk to you and are excited to see is when we come in. Best Dairy Queen in the DMV no contest

Excellent location. This DQ is located in Herndon downtown. Some parking on the street and more behind it, shared with the bars/restaurants close by. Get some ice cream and walk across to the red train, bench along the WOD trail or the city hall. The staff is super friendly. Inspite of the blizzard and other inventions, banana split is our go to dairy queen treat for two. Enjoy!

This is a smaller location than your typical Dairy Queen and features a limited menu concerning food, but they feature a full treat menu. The Blizzards taste delicious here; I recommend the S'mores Blizzard! There is plenty of seating inside and a pleasant ambiance. There is also the option to enjoy your treat outdoors: across the street, you can find a train exhibit with a couple benches (attached to the neighboring section of the 60-mile Washington & Old Dominion mixed-use path), as well as the nearby Herndon Blacksmith Shops exhibit, also with a couple benches. You can park right out front with free street parking.
