The Peach City

After collecting his dairy science degree from Utah State Bill Harris had a dream of owning an original Malt shop and branding his family recipes. The search for the perfect location took him up and down the Wasatch Front. He finally appointed Brigham City to be the place.

With its majestic mountains, tree lined streets, loyal citizens, small town feel, and the major road to Idaho running right through the middle of town. It almost seemed to be a predestined location for Bill to begin his vision of a local hangout with a family atmosphere.

By 1937, Bill had finalized the leasing of a small store front at 129 South Main, bought the equipment, and was ready to start off on his epic journey. In those early years, a banana split would set you back 20 cents, 12 cents for a soda, and 5 cents for a fresh limeade. During this time the going hourly wage was 15 cents.
