Located off Carroll Creek and Market Street in Downtown Frederick, the Ice Cream Shop & Pizza will close out eight years of operation in the space effective August 24, 2025. Customers are encouraged to visit and enjoy shop specialties like “Mountain Milkshakes” and Waffle Bowl Sundaes, plus scratch-made pizzas and other savory bites before the shop's final day.

“We're grateful to our loyal customers these last years and have enjoyed being part of the Downtown Frederick scene,” said Tony Brusco, CEO, South Mountain Creamery. “As we look to the future of South Mountain Creamery, we're excited to better serve our customers through our growing home delivery and wholesale services, and through memorable experiences and events at our farm.”

South Mountain Creamery's values have always centered on family, agriculture, and connecting people with great food. The decision to close the Downtown Frederick shop is part of their larger strategy; as the company concentrates on growing their home delivery, wholesale services, and farm experience services, this retail location does not align with their new goals.

Fans of South Mountain Creamery products can find products like ice cream, milk, butter, and eggs in local retail stores and the South Mountain Creamery home delivery service. Karen's Kountry Store, the creamery's on-location farm store in Middletown, Maryland, also offers these products and more, and is a popular destination for families to enjoy calf feedings, a playground, farm tours, and experience a real working farm.
