RIP Duke's Ice Cream
My wife reports the demise of Duke's Ice Cream, in the Chilis/Cici's shopping center on the southwest corner of 2499 & 3040. Nothing left inside except a For Lease sign. And that's a shame. Duke's had good ice cream, snow cones, and candy-by-the-pound too. All the things a kid could want. Add a western theme (which they had just upgraded, in fact), and you've got a nice little store.
It's hard to be a restaurant these days.

I don't think Culver's coming in would have been good for them. It is a shame.
I saw this coming....the last time we went in there my daughter wanted a sno cone - they were out of her favorite flavoring. She then thought about ice cream topped with m&m's....The person behind the counter warned us not to choose that because he said the candy had been there forever and was quite stale. When the people that work there warn you not to choose their available toppings - that is never good news.
Oh, how sad. I really liked that place. I guess Culver's pushed them out. It's a shame, too, because Culver's is over-priced for ice cream, shakes, etc.. I hate to see any small business closing and I especially hate to see it closing b/c of a large chain.
