Attached to the Short Stop Deli and just a few blocks from The Commons. This is a spot you may miss if you weren't told about it! They make ice cream from scratch (dairy-free available) with all the best fixings to make your ideal cone. Make this your dessert destination after enjoying your lunch or dinner in The Commons.

Best ice cream in town... and its right next door to Shortstop. Great double whammy.

Home made ice cream, including non-dairy from a coconut base. Only a few home made flavors per day, but this place is a local favorite.

Soft-served ice cream. Open April-September, CASH ONLY.

If you're looking for soft serve, this is the place to go. It's attached to Short Stop Deli, which has great subs if you need something on-the-go!
