Walk-up Ice Cream Shop

Introduction

This Ice Cream Shop has been selling ice cream here for over 60 years. It was a franchised free-standing walk-up stand selling ice cream thru 2 windows, now it is an independent, still selling some of the best soft & hard ice cream products including shakes, slush?s, splits, floats, take-home cakes, flying saucers, and chip witches ? thru those same front windows ? 12 months a year. (Of course, you can buy this business and close 3 months in the winter ? but maybe you can sell other products too like coffee, soups, etc.)

Ice cream is comfort food. It is consumed morning, noon, and night. Families (and individuals) come down after dinner and enjoy their dessert at the stand. Some of their best memories are from the ice cream stand with their families and friends.
