If you’re in the Adirondacks near Saranac Lake, NY make sure to stop by Donnelly’s Ice Cream on Route 86. A small white building on the side of the road has been making soft serve ice cream since 1953 (with the same ice cream maker!). You line up in and out of the building to order, but only choose your size as their is one flavor per day. Homemade, locally made and a local favorite – what more could you want from ice cream in the summer? There’s plenty of parking and a great view and it’s delicious ice cream. Enjoy!

This is much appreciated for those of us who are indecisive.

“AN Ice Cream Show” was produced by Pittsburgh Public TV in the late 90s. Check it out below! They air it a couple times a year here in Atlanta. I’ve watched it a half dozen times. They also did a “Hot Dog Program.”
Love that they have only one flavor! That makes it easy.
Thanks!
What a quaint little shop! I would so stop for a cone and a view =)
