My name is Chris Dodge and I live right here in the great state of Tennessee. My family and I are full adventurers filled with passion to see the amazing things our state has to offer. We are avid hikers and have explored many different places in Tennessee and beyond but we are always thankful to be living in such a glorious state.
We all have that favorite memory of a local ice cream shop where your family gathered together over a delicious frozen treat. The delight and excitement as the car rolls into the parking lot of the ice cream parlor still brings back vivid memories. We know of a place just like that, but it’s not just ice cream – it’s a unique twist on snow cones in Memphis, Tennessee.
Jerry’s Snow Cones are famous now, but it all started from humble beginnings.
Jerry’s was once a gas station in the '20s, and as the parents had their cars worked on, the station owners would make snow cones for the kids. The building later became a carwash and snow cone shack in the '60s. Fast forward to today and Jerry's has become known far and wide for its snow cones. The original establishment was even featured in the movie Great Balls of Fire.
Jerry’s Snow Cones were so good that the little business could no longer contain the overflow of greatness and had to open up a second location in Cordova.
You can order mouthwatering burgers that are made fresh every day. You can bite into the classic '70s burger or get a taste of good old Memphis BBQ with the Bacon Barbeque Burger. There are also delicious treats like funnel cakes and churros. You can get a variety of great food and then finish with a snow cone.
The snow cone supreme takes a regular snow cone and adds vanilla ice cream to the top. It may seem simple, but you will never look at a snow cone the same way after indulging in this tasty treat.
There are over 60 different flavors to choose from.
You will find the typical fruit flavors like blueberry, cherry, and grape. If you want to try something wild, there are other fun flavors like Dreamsicle, Hurricane Elvis, Fuzzy Navel, and Tickle Me Sweet. The hilarious names and fantastic flavors add to the charm of this little shack.
This is a must-try destination for anyone traveling in the Memphis area. Grab some friends and relive that childhood excitement you once had when pulling up to your local ice cream shop.
