This Small Town Ice Cream Shop In New Hampshire Has The Creamiest Soft Serve
If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it twice, New Hampshire ice cream is nice, nice, nice! Okay, we might have just made that up but the reality is that we can’t help but make up fun songs when we think about soft serve ice cream during the summer. And, it’s perfectly convenient that we’re in New Hampshire because this might just be the home to some of the best in the country! This spot is a classic and we think you’ll love it too.
Dairy Twirl in Lebanon was once known locally as just "Pete & Rogers." Locals will tell you that it was once an oil company that somehow turned into an ice cream stand. We're not complaining!
There's almost always a line, for both ordering and taking a look at the menu of hard ice cream made by Hershey's. The soft serve base is made by Hood and it's comprised of a 10% milkfat base. You'll happily appreciate this less healthy option!
Then they've got two special flavors that rotate and change. We love the unique combinations like lemon and chocolate. The name? The "bumblebee", of course!
Dairy Twirl is open every day in the season from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. You can reach them on 603-448-9959. Check them out on Facebook for daily updates and mouthwatering photos. Address: 39 Mechanic Street, Lebanon, NH 03766.
