Cool Off At Ice Cream Cottage

Before you head off to the 75th annual Arbutus Volunteer Fire Department carnival this week, check out Ice Cream Cottage just across the street on 1348 Stevens Ave.

Enjoy the ice cream shop's summer special: buy one soft serve, get one free from Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., employee Jane Hughes says.

She recommends getting the orange blossom, an icy combination of orange sorbet, crushed ice and Sprite.

If you're looking for somewhere to eat for lunch, the shop also offers lunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. from Monday through Saturday.

Hughes says the shop offers a variety of sandwiches, including the classic chicken salad and a ham and grilled cheese sandwich. However, if you're looking for burgers or fries, you'll have to check out the Dixie Chicken tent just outside its doors, where BBQ offerings include pulled pork, pulled chicken, ribs, brisket and more on Saturdays and Sundays.

Find Ice Cream Cottage on Facebook for hours and more information.
