The Story

The neon sign of Papaw's Kookies and Kream beckons sweet tooths from old Route 66, a true slice of yesteryear's charm. Inside, checkered floors and spinning stools invite you to linger over scoops piled high with the creamiest, dreamiest flavors imaginable. Each bite of a frosty treat feels like a hug from simpler times, a perfect roadside respite on your journey.

    Stopped in while in town from Texas and this was a great experience. I assume Papaw was the one who helped us with making our ice cream and rootbeer floats and he was such a great host. I'd highly recommend this ice cream parlor for anyone in the area. Java chuck with a waffle cone if you're wondering.

    This place feels like home! They always make sure you get what you want and make sure that you leave full! Thank you for the great memories of kids dripping ice cream on there clothes and having it all over their faces, it never ceases to make us laugh!
