This tiny ice cream shop is located right by the Castle Shannon T and I do mean by the tracks! There is two hour free parking on Willow St during the day. There is a 10% off your first purchase with Yelp check in.
The owner was indeed friendly and wants to see his business expand. He currently serves Perry's ice cream from upstate NY near Buffalo. The cones are covered in paper patriot flags which I guess would symbolize Memorial day and the 4th of July. I sampled two flavors and ended up ordering them as a duo in a cup. One was called the "Queen of hearts" which was a dark chocolate covered raspberry. The other was "grasshopper" which was like a mint chocolate chip. Both flavors were very rich and so good! There is a chalkboard with daily specials and you get $.50 off if you show him your Connect card. You can also purchase beverages as well.
I learned that he wishes to expand and carry take out items from some of the more popular ice cream places around the city. I offered some suggestions of some of my favorites and he will look into them. He told me that people don't realize that there is a small business district here in Castle Shannon and that most people usually drive up Castle Shannon Blvd without even realizing they are there.
He no longer offers a rewards card since no a whole lot of people know about this place. Prices are very reasonable. Two scoops for only $4.00-you can't beat that and they are generous in portion. Ice cream is very fresh. The shop is open seasonally only. The free parking is always a plus for me. The shop opens at 3 on weekdays. Definitely worth a return visit!
