I have loved Widows Walk Ice Cream for quite some time and was super excited to see that the new owner, Jill was turning the main level of the big house into a coffee shop. They have standard coffee and some breakfast offerings that she has brought in from another local business. The muffins are moist and large, but you'll also find danish as well as oatmeal cups. It's not unlike the case offerings at a Starbucks. What sets Widows Brew apart is the coffee and ice cream combos. My friend ordered off the planning menu board but you can create your own unique pairing. Hers was a churro cinnamon coffee over vanilla ice cream with a caramel drizzle. And as promised by Jill, the taste differed between drinking it and spooning it. My friend said it was amazing...meanwhile I was off to the back for some pumpkin ice cream.
We spoke with Jill for quite a while about her plans, she is intending to keep Widows Walk open year round now, and she's planning a verify of events through the end of the year to keep it interesting. They're doing some live music, a Halloween costume contest with a trunk or treat, a food drive at Thanksgiving and a Light up Widows Walk for Christmas time.
I cannot wait to see what all she has in store for us! I take everyone I know out to WW. The ice cream has always been a favorite. The owners, past and present, along with staff have always been friendly and great community partners. I love to see local businesses successfully operating in my own little town. read more
