Another piece of Roadside America thrives in the north country of New York’s Adirondack Park.

Having read all the rave reviews about Donelly’s Ice Cream in Saranac Lake, my wife and I stopped after paddling Moose pond. It was 3PM on a Monday and the line of cars coming and going was endless. Using the same machine since 1953 they only serve one flavor per day and on this day it was (Vanilla & Butter Pecan Twist).

If you are ever in the Saranac Lake area of New York I highly recommend a pit stop at Donnelly’s, It was delightful!

Here is the current flavor schedule:

MONDAY – NUT SURPRISE
TUESDAY – RED/BLACK RASPBERRY
WEDNESDAY – CHOCOLATE
THURSDAY – FRUIT SURPRISE
FRIDAY – STRAWBERRY
SATURDAY – ANYTHING GOES SURPRISE AND SUNDAY – CHOCOLATE
