Writer some days, editor other days, nerd all days. Love to travel to lesser-known spots and give them the love they deserve. Independently owned motor inns, Mom and Pop restaurants, uncrowded National Parks and trails.
In between these, spend my free time virtually adventuring through point-and-click games. Native New Yorker but can frequently be found roaming other parts of the United States.
Nothing is more satisfying on a warm, sunny day (or a cold, cloudy day too!) than ice cream. No matter if it’s just plain chocolate or vanilla or something fancier like cinnamon roll or maple walnut. New Hampshire is home to a ton of ice cream shops, with many of its towns and cities offering up more than one. Kingston, located in Rockingham County, with a population of a little over 6,000, is one of those very places. Feast your eyes (and taste buds!) on these two gems.
Located just minutes from Kingston’s historic district, you’ll find What’s The Scoop.
What's the Scoop?, 160 Main St, Kingston, NH 03848, USA
Opened in 2014, this family-owned small ice cream shop offers up a big menu with many items containing locally-sourced ingredients.
There are more than 60 flavors of ice cream, sherbert, frozen yogurt, and sorbet to choose from, such as Coffee Kahlua Brownie, Dinosaur Crunch, Strawberry Cheesecake, and Death by Chocolate, with updates made regularly. If you have trouble making your choice, ask for a free sample.
Opened in 1993, you can grab a variety of items (both hot and cold!) as well as half-gallons, pints, and quarts.
Among its over 45 flavors, Memories has all the traditional ones, with both dairy-free and vegan options also available. If you are looking for something a little bolder, try Butter Pecan, Holy Cow, Coconut Chip, or Cotton Candy.
This stand is part of a farm setting, as evidenced by this potential ice cream thief!
And it’s not just ice scream here. You can also order custom ice cream cakes, coffee drinks, ice cream pops, and even made-to-order ice cream sandwiches.
