Sara's Ice Cream

Summer hours for Sara's Ice Cream are listed. Off-season hours are from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm. The shop is closed in the winter.

The shop was opened around 1980 by Sara Menard. The shop was opened on an unnaturally cold day in May, but thanks to a few Girl Scouts, the day closed with $13.39 in the drawer.

The building was originally Ted Meyer's Shoe Store which provided the local Mississippi Lime Company workers with boots and work wear. Now, the shop provides locals and tourists with a refreshing treat during the summer. When you stop in, ask the workers about the soda fountain. It is a 1929 Bastian-Blessing fountain from the Old Orchard Drug Store in Webster, Missouri.
