Recommendation for Ice Cream

This evening a bunch of us went out for ice cream at Stewart's, which is on Chestnut St, across from the Great American in Cooperstown.  Stewart's is a place that is part grocery store, part convenience store, and part  ice cream shop.  One would think that being part gas station that the ice cream wouldn't be that great, but it is actually terrific.  It was a place that a first discovered while visiting my grandmother who used to live in Cambridge. NY.  It seems to be a business pretty much confined to Upstate New York, and moving into Cooperstown and finding one was like providence, like a coming home in some ways.

For a tourist town like Cooperstown, Stewart's is pretty much one of the only places that is open year round to get ice cream, and also has very affordable prices.  It was only about $2.75 for a make your own sundae, where you choose the ice cream and then they let you go to the toppings counter and put what every you want on it.  It was also only $2.75 for a hand-packed pint.  For good ice cream at a reasonable price it seems to be the definite place  to go if looking for ice cream in Cooperstown.
