Frequently Asked Questions

Does Gary's Ice Cream make all their own ice cream?
Yes. Gary's Ice Cream makes all their own ice cream.
In addition, Gary's Ice Cream makes all their own fountain syrups, 
and many of the bases used in making the ice cream.
We also make our own Hot Fudge Sauce!

Is Gary's Ice Cream available anywhere else?
Gary's Ice Cream is only sold at our own 2 stores - Chelmsford & Lowell, MA.
Our production facility is small as is our freezer storage - therefore we DO NOT wholesale
our ice cream to other ice cream shops.  We only sell it at our own 2 stores.
It IS the ice cream served at Good Thymes Family Restaurant in Lowell.

Why does Gary's Ice Cream taste so much better than other ice creams?
Part of the reason why Gary's Ice Cream tastes better is that it is so Fresh!
Because we are a small company and work out of a small (600 sq ft) building, we don't
have a lot of storage space, so we have to make ice cream every day - many times
the ice cream we are serving was just made a day or two before you eat it!
Gary has been known to tell a customer that the ice cream is so fresh,
"it was in the cow 2 days ago"

Is Gary's Ice Cream open year-round?
Gary's  is open March - November (weather permitting),
