ICE CREAM (tie)
Peterson’s Ice Cream Depot

Every town needs an ice cream stand, and Peterson’s keeps Clifton’s residents in line for something sweet and cooling. New this year, the full-service shop offers hard ice cream plus cups, cones, shakes and French fries. Because if you’re going for a treat, you might as well dip your fries in some soft-serve. –SG

ICE CREAM (tie)
The Dairy Godmother

If you tried to order ice cream here, owner Liz Davis would be quick to tell you The Dairy Godmother sells frozen custard. The difference shows in the lack of air beaten in, creating a frozen treat that is more silky, smooth and dense. The small-batch operation only allows for three flavors: chocolate, vanilla and the daily special. –SG
