When you really need ice-cream. Try their award-winning Philly Vanilla. Make-Your-Own-Sundaes. Milk, eggs, etc. Unpretentious. Good quality. Two locations: one on corner of Green St. & Rt. 9-Fairview Ave. is within walking distance of the house. Milk, bread, gas. The usual C-store items. Open year round.
