This Lakeside Ice Cream Shop In Minnesota Is The Most Charming Place To Cool Down This Summer

With summer in full force – and showing no sign of cooling down – it is time for Minnesotans to take matters into our own hands. For some, this means long cabin weekends up north. For others, a jump in the lake will do. But the quickest way to cool down during the famously humid Minnesota summer? Ice cream. Luckily, there is one charming lakeside ice cream shop that has been many Minnesotans’ go-to spot for years. Take a look:

The PortLand Malt Shoppe is located at 716 E Superior St., Duluth, MN 55802.

Over the years, its purpose shifted. It finally became an ice cream shop in 1989.

Guests are welcome to choose toppings to add to their malt or shake flavor. Make it more chocolatey with some fudge, or give yourself a boost of energy with coffee.

If you're not into malts, get a cone or sundae! Choose from moose tracks, salted caramel cheesecake, and many more - they're all delicious.
