Churn Soft Serve
Serving as a sort of "sister brand" to Lloyd, whose Taco Factory is found just next door, Churn differentiates itself from its Hertel competition with its emphasis on soft ice cream: theirs is scratch-made using locally-sourced milk and cream (the only place in Western New York that does this with soft-serve), then flavored in both standard (vanilla, chocolate) as well as creative (matcha, vegan coconut) varieties, and finally served in your choice of a paper cup or a house-baked waffle cone. If you're after something a bit more elaborate, there's also a range of specialty sundaes (the "Gramma Angie" — vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate chips, cookie crumbles, and cream cheese icing — is an early favorite) as well as "Churned Ups", which are basically the house version of Dairy Queen's "Blizzard" treats.

Lloyd Taco Factory
The "high-end food and service at street-level prices" credo under which Lloyd's food trucks operate applies equally to their brick-and-mortar restaurant: the menu combines a curated selection of the most popular options from the truck (now if you want your fix of Tricked Out Nachos or the "Dirty South" dessert burrito, you know exactly where to find it on any given day) with some interesting new creations (the "El Hombre" quesadilla is probably the most popular of these, with chorizo lending a smoky aroma to a cheese-based filling that also includes potato, onion, and avocado crema, while the "Mexicali Spring Rolls" sees Lloyd dabbling in Asian fusion). All these goodies are made with free-range, antibiotic- and hormone-free meats and locally grown produce and come served on authentic house-made corn tortillas.
