Brusters Ice Cream/ Nathans Hot Dogs! A Local Review!



We've had a Brusters in town for about ten years now!  The first time I ever went was when Hubbie and I were dating!  I had the mint chocolate chip ice cream cone and I still remember that date!

Over the years, we have stopped at Brusters for milkshakes on hot days or for ice cream cones and sundaes on special occasions.  But my favorite trip to Brusters/Nathans was about a year ago.  Hubbie took the day off from work so that we could go to a doctor's appointment and strawberry picking with the family.  After we were finished, we drove home through town, hungry and tired and decided to stop at Nathans to eat lunch!  It was a beautiful Spring day- sunny and pleasant- a perfect day for eating outside!  It was the first time Hubbie had eaten "lunch food" at Nathans and he was hooked! We all were actually!  The fries are so yummy and salty!  And the kids LOVE their mini hotdogs dipped in honey mustard sauce!  I've never seen my kids be so quiet while eating!  To see a full menu, go here.

Afterwards, we got some ice cream!  Brusters offers free ice cream if your kiddos are under a certain height, so the Peanut enjoyed a free cone of ice cream.  Bubbie picked the dinosaur ice cream sundae and it was a MESS! but he gobbled it all up!  Hubbie and I picked our favs!  He loves anything with peanut butter so he chose the peanut butter sundae and I love anything with chocolate chunks and I picked the cheesecake and chocolate flavor in a cone!  They give you SO much ice cream!  We were definitely stuffed!


It was a wonderful day- just spending it together!
