This Ice Cream Parlor is located in an historic Italianate building. Looking into the building, they have a really nice old-fashioned soda fountain and some seating. There was sidewalk construction going on making access to the business very difficult during our stay in Galena.
Galena's ice cream parlor since 1970, serving homemade waffle cones, floats, shakes & malts, and banana splits. Hot dogs, lemonade & soft pretzels.
