Get The Scoop: Five Must-Visit Ice Creameries InTheBurg

July 16, 2020 by InTheBurg

We don’t need a reason to enjoy a delicious ice cream sundae, but if you’re looking for an excuse, here’s a great one: July is National Ice Cream Month, and National Ice Cream Day is Sunday, July 19th.

Choosing which flavor to savor is almost as difficult as choosing a shop! Here’s five of our favorite creameries:

Big Ben’s Desserts & Ice Cream

297 Spartanburg Hwy, Lyman

Big Ben’s is your one-stop-shop for ice cream sundaes, handbaked brownies and cupcakes, milkshakes, Ben Hall’s famous banana pudding, and more. Build your own sundae, with a slice of signature cake and over 15 toppings to choose from. Stop by for a sweet treat, Tuesday through Saturday.

BUT, right across the street, stop by the Country Cafe and Ice Cream Parlor. The cafe is open year-round for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Grab a Southern bite to eat and a dessert to-go, then eat your sweet treats in a rocker on the porch.

Buck ‘N Brew

February 5, 2020 by InTheBurg

Campobello might not be the first place you think of as a “coffee destination,” but you just don’t have the full scoop. Local favorite, Buck ‘N Brew Coffee & Ice Cream, is a cozy gathering place for locals and passerby alike.

Housed at 18981 Asheville Hwy, the ranch-style building is a colorful beacon on your way to downtown Campobello. On a weekday afternoon, the coffeeshop quickly filled with friends meeting for lunch, retired couples, and teenagers from nearby Landrum High School.

Inside, find two sides to the shop….

A cozy, orange and wood-paneled farm-motif half of the building serves coffee and sandwiches, with horse shoe decor, barn doors, and horse-themed drink specials.

In addition to the usual coffeeshop menu you would expect, choose from eight hot, iced, and frozen specialty flavor combos, such as the Cattle Crunch (English toffee, dark chocolate,) the Palomino Mocha (French vanilla, white chocolate, caramel,) or the Blue Roan (blueberry, white chocolate.) Want sweet but simple? They offer twenty individual syrup flavors as well.

 

If your stomach starts growling, Buck ‘N Brew offers handmade pastries and cake slices from Standing Stone Bakery in Columbus, NC, as well as sandwiches (both featured specials and build-your-own,) salads, and soups. And yes, they’re tasty. (We recommend the Roasted Italian sandwich: ham, pepperoni, salami, pepper-jack cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato, and roasted Italian dressing.)

The other side of the coffeeshop– known as Buck ‘N Scoops– offers 24 flavors of ice cream sundaes and cones. Chalk paint cow print adorns the walls, with colorful notes and doodles from regular fans.

No time to stop and stay? No worries; the coffeeshop also has a convenient drivethru.

Buck ‘N Brew is open seven days a week:

Monday-Friday: 7am-6pm

Saturday: 7:30am-6pm

Sunday: 2-7pm

CHEERS!
