A note from us to our community 💙

We want to share something directly with our friends, neighbors, and customers.

Due to a personal family situation, we’ve made the decision to put the Dairy Bar up for sale. This wasn’t an easy choice, and it comes after a lot of thought and a heavy heart.

What’s important for everyone to know is this:
👉 We WILL be open for the 2026 season (beginning in March)
👉 We’ll still be here serving you like always.
👉 Nothing changes for our day-to-day operations right now.

This place has meant so much to our family and to this town, and our hope is to see it continue on for many years to come with the right next owner. We’re proud of what this business has been and grateful for the support we’ve always received.

Thank you for understanding and for continuing to support us. We’re looking forward to another great season with all of you. Serious inquiries are welcome privately through messenger.

Our Story

Welcome to the Dairy Bar! The Dairy Bar has been a local favorite on the Southeast Corner of the Carrollton, Illinois town square since 1953! It was purchased by the Kenny & Shaana Gray (and their 3 daughters Lauren, Kaitlyn & Jenna!) in January 2014. The Dairy Bar has a family friendly atmosphere and a nostalgic quality that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time to enjoy the simple things in life like an ice cream cone, a cherry Coke or a California Burger. Our main goal is to provide you with excellent service and to make your day a little happier! We consider our customers as friends and we hope you stop in and see us often!
