I think they might be third cousins or first cousins once removed. It is definitely his way or the highway but he's still basically a nice guy.

Jeff is a fellow Villager.
Guess I won't be going there.

At the recommendation of Redwitch, we took our 21 year old son to Mystic Ice Cream when he visited. It was a Saturday evening and there was a nice crowd as well as some live music. We enjoyed everything about our visit including the cherry cream, coffee fudge and Bailey's cream. Each of us, for very different reasons, left with a big smile. The place is unique and a very nice change of pace.

One of the very few ice cream places, with unique flavors, that allow NO SAMPLES.....PERIOD. He's pretty much rigid on most everything!!

While you're there enjoying all those sweet treats if Jeff is there ask him to do his magic tricks. Very enjoyable and how the hell did he do that moments.

That's a shame, if you are basing that decision on these posts.

Hmmm!
So if I call my drink a "High Ball" and put whiskey in the ginger ale, I don't need a liquor license to sell it?

I would think that after being open as long as the store has..........the owner has checked out the license requirements. Don't ya think?

I think that there's such a small amount of alcohol or perhaps just alcohol flavors in the ice cream that a liquor license is not required. Sort of like a restaurant that serves something in a wine sauce or bourbon flavored chicken.

Ummm people put booze in cakes and various desserts and recipes and do not need liquor licenses to sell them... what you're referring to sounds like straight booze.

Outstanding ice cream, music on Saturday nights, magic at your table, nice 60's photos all about the place . . . it was fun and I'll certainly be back soon! They just put in a coffee bar in the back too!
