The Ice Cream Lady - Douglas MA

Located at The Family Convenience Center next to the convenience store with a gas station and a Dunkin Donuts, the No-name Ice Cream Store in Douglas, MA is what I call, Ice Cream Lady, simply because of the statue when I drive to Douglas State Forest.  Not that this place isn't my best, but that it's just that, a statue figure when I go down there.


I mentiened this place briefly, simply because I just skipped out on the ice cream because I went to Rota Springs instead.  But thanks to this place closing down for the season this weekend, I went to order a Sundae.

The menu is that.  24 flavors of hard scooped ice cream (Black Raspberry, Butter Pecan, Bubble Gum, Cake Batter, Chocolate, Chocolate Chip, Coffee, Coffee Kahula Brownie, Cookie Dough, Cotton Candy, Death By Chocolate, Maple Walnut, Milky Way, Mint Chocolate Chip, Mocha Chip, Moose Tracks, Peppermint Stick, Pistachio, Raspberry Chocolate Chip, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, Rum Raisin, Strawberry, Strawberry Cheesecake, Vanilla), Low-fat options (Black Raspberry, Coffee, Purple Cow), an Oreo Yogurt, an orange or watermellon sherbert, and just two soft serve choc-vanilla flavers.  Furthermore, these ice creams comes from Richardsons, so this place closing down isn't a big deal for me.  So, the pints and quarts of ice cream is just for convenience type thing if you want to get some ice cream.  Otherwise, you may find an ice cream place around here that could be open year round.  So unless you can't drive far, and unable to reach Richardson's ice cream in Middleborough, this place closing down isn't that big of a deal.  Now, if someone else takes over this place, and actually MAKES ice cream here, then it would be a big deal.

Anyways, I ordered a brownie sundae with Death By Chocolate, Cake Batter, Strawberry Cheesecake, and Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.  The brownie sundae wan't anything too fancy, and the place called Rota Springs had a better sundae there, though, you are restricted to two flavers.
Well, if you are feeling about this place, then maybe one day, you can take over, and start serving ice cream year round.  Oh, Yea, You can order Ice Cream from the inside too.  So to have this end SO early in September is no excuse.  Just close the window, but don't close the business down as a hole.
