Mike’s Ice Cream Stand

Delicious ice cream!!! Just wish they had a frequent customer card! It’s so $$$. The pint is not much more than the kiddie size and is more $ than a pint of Ben and Jerrys, and Ben and Jerry’s goes on sale. Great customer service!

Simply the best value in terms of steamed hot dog specials. Their steamed dogs are soft, mild, and delicious! Can’t help but get the 2 dog special which includes a small bag of chips and a 12 oz. soda all for under 4 bucks. Love the Frappes there too as well as an old standard Lime Rickey! I might have to minimize my stops at Mr. Mike’s as it’s not a healthful diet option. But with spring in full spring, and summer just around the hot dog corner… Well you know the rest. Mike the Owner is always there it seems and offers other food/​snack items such as nachos, chips, and candy. There is a large parking lot for customers, along with wooden picnic tables and wicker chairs for outdoor diners to enjoy. Mike’s is just a good all around old fashioned Ice cream stand with a super single or double dog special!!!

I usually come for the hot dogs and chili dogs. They are very good & a very reasonable price

Stopped here for ice cream. Unexpected place, but it had every good strawberry ice cream. My husband got the peanut butter flavor. The portions are generous, so we will come again.

We stop by here regularly for Hot Dogs and Ice Cream. The dogs are steamed, and taste good. The Ice Cream is always good, and the triple thick frappes can’t be beat.

Ice cream here is NOT homemade on premises, it is regional brand Giffords. Their slush is Richie’s brand. Too bad, because it is a cute roadside stop off the beaten path. It’s fine if screaming kids need any immediate chill in a cone, but it is not a Unilocal-​worthy ice cream stand if they don’t make their own.

Good roadside ice cream!
On my way back to NH, I decided to stop at Mike’s Ice Cream Stand for dessert (after having brunch in town) when I spotted Pumpkin Ice Cream on the sign! Fall is almost here! This roadside ice cream stand/​baseball card shop is located near the Nashua Road/​Lakeview Avenue intersection.
There are racks of snacks and candy bars, plus Red Sox bat pens near the outside takeout windows of Mike’s Ice Cream Stand. There’s also a baseball card shop inside the building. This stand offers hard ice cream (4 sizes of cones/​cups), yogurts, sundaes, banana boats, popsicles, frappes, shakes, Richie’s Italian Ice, energy drinks, hot dogs, and nachos. A Chili Dog was $ 1.49 plus tax and the Nestle Crunch Sundae ($ 4.50 plus tax) came with a free Red Sox pennant (offers in ⁰⁹⁄₂₀₀₉).
I got a Kiddie Cup (2 scoops) of Pumpkin Ice Cream ($ 2.65 plus tax). I enjoyed my dessert at a picnic table out front. The Pumpkin Ice Cream was really good and refreshing on a warm sunny September afternoon. The ice cream was cold and creamy with a smooth texture and good pumpkin flavors, cleansing the aftertaste of brunch food.
