The Old Custard Stand

I have been coming here for many years. This is our go to custard/ice cream joint. I have always supported local owned and operated but this is not just support. This place is tried true and local. Never have I had a bad experience… staff super friendly. Only wish they were open 365 days. We go once a week while in season. YOU MUST TRY worth the trip! Will not disappoint!

This is the perfect local eatery whether you live down the street or are looking for something to eat on your way through town. The Old Custard Stand reminds me of my childhood. There was a stand just like this in my hometown that you walk up and order, usually staffed by local high school students. They offer only their flavors of the day along with traditional favorites of chocolate, vanilla, and butter pecan. Each recipe is unique to them. This makes every visit a treat where you discover new flavors or check their flavor calendar for your favorite and make plans to visit. Their food menu works similar I believe, where they have options that remain the same and some limited time offerings. These are also their own recipes. I love this as it makes ordering so easy and the small menu is their most popular items so you'll always get something delicious! This stand has become an important part of our family's back-to-school tradition. We take our children to the school to look at the class lists posted outside, see what classes their friends are in and they discover who their teacher will be. Then we stop at The Old Custard Stand for dinner and desert. So many special family memories center around food, like turkey at Thanksgiving, and The Old Custard Stand becomes part of our family every August. As far as COVID-19 safety, as a walk up stand there has always been minimal contact with the workers and the windows where you order open only half way, bottom-up, so there is a barrier between your face and your host's.

I really enjoy sitting out here and taking my time with family to eat the frozen custards. It has nice trees and benches. It tastes like a cross between yogurt and gelato. Not too sweet but refreshing. I had their croissant chicken salad this time and it was really good. I highly recommend coming here when it is sunny out and eating here!
