I tried to stop in last night after one of my kids had a concert at Century but we just missed when they were open by about 10 minutes.  We always celebrate after concerts with ice cream so that was a bit of a bummer but I'm sure we will have more opportunities to check out the new spot in town.

Here are their hours in case you want to plan your outing a little better than I did last night:

  • Monday - Thursday - 7:00 am until 8:00 pm
  • Friday - Saturday - 7:00 am until 9:00 pm
  • Sunday - Closed
