Ice cream anyone

GTO · 05-24-2016, 07:33 PM

Just got word from a VERY reliable source that Jordons ice cream is going in right next to Funspot, where the mini golf used to be. Jordan's is located on 106 in Belmont. Great home made ice cream. Foundation is in and the owner hopes to be open in three weeks. What a gold mine!

We l❤️Ve Jordan's ice cream. We buy a dozen or so of their half gallon containers so that our guests can overindulge when they invade [visit] our place on East Bear Island. 🍨 🐻

That's much closer for me.

If it wasn't for this damn diet...

Are they closing the Belmont store on 106, or are they going to run both stores ?

Mr. V · 05-24-2016, 11:48 PM

Jordan's or Keller House?

Decisions, decisions.

The Rt 106 stand is always busy, stopped at 3 pm yesterday and the parking lot was full with two good lines at the windows. Always worth the wait, got my black raspberry fix. Hard to believe they would close such a successful store.

Looks like the new store will not be ready for MC week, too bad on that count.

I really had my fingers crossed that they were just spiffing up the mini golf holes when they removed all of the features. That is a major hit to my psyche that the mini golf is gone. Its indoors now but its not the same. Only memories are left I guess.

Pirates Cove mini golf is just down the road from Funspot

feb · 05-25-2016, 08:37 AM

Yeah, Pirates Cove is OK, just not the same nostalgia as Funspot. Very few places where you can take your kids and do the same thing you did 40 years earlier. Plus it was $5 per player and no crowds.

We were playing once and the eldest owner was sitting nearby on the bench watching over the course. I walked up to him and told him how I used to love playing here as a kid and love bringing my kids. We talked for a while and then we both departed. He caught us on the 18th hole and gave us a bunch of free passes. He didn't have to do that and I was looking for it either. I just wanted him to know how much we all appreciated what he did to keep the course running. Very nice guy to talk to...

Ice cream is medicinal. It cures depression.

Make two stops: Ice cream - Jordan's; candy - Kellerhaus.

There is NO decision here, Kellerhaus all the way everyday.

I loved the Funspot outdoor mini golf course also. You could learn a lot about NH on each hole.

No crowds because it - well - stunk.

But it was cheap and it brought back memories of when the boomers who will sink the SS system could actually come to the lake and rent a see through the walls camp and enjoy for the price of several joints which they consumed on the porch along with a six of local cheap brew.
Now it is $8 a can tuna, designer beer and "mine is bigger than yours" boats.

The only reason to go to Kellerhaus for ice cream is the toppings. Its certainly not for the ice cream. Only 4 flavors and not any better than what I can buy at the supermarket. Jordans all the way!

ishoot308 · 05-25-2016, 03:56 PM

Have to agree with Taz...Jordans ice cream is hard to beat and like forum friend Slickcraft, my favorite is their black raspberry!

Slickcraft · 05-28-2016, 09:18 AM

Again Jordan's is #1 in NH.
