We open at 5pm!

We updated our hours to Fall time hours last week. We’ve done it everywhere… Google, Facebook, yelp & TripAdvisor. I cannot edit Apple Maps and it still shows our early summer hours. Ive tried to submit a report 3x. We had a few customers upset after 9pm Sunday when we told them we were closed. Please understand this isn’t our fault and would never intentionally close earlier leaving you without your necessary treats!

We are open:
Monday-Friday 5pm-9pm
Saturday & Sunday 2pm-9pm

Two more days of these specials!

Sometimes being the owner of an ice cream shop looks like a Sunday morning run to Total Wine & More for the best strawberry syrup ever.

We extend our sincere thanks to the Horry County Planning and Zoning staff and Councilman Cam Crawford for their professionalism, guidance, and support throughout the zoning dispute. Their assistance was instrumental in helping us successfully navigate this process.

That being said, a text amendment will be prepared for the B01 zoning district to allow retail use. Once that item reaches the County Council agenda, a second amendment will follow to permit work trailers and RVs.

We are equally grateful to the HOA board members who took the time to show up and stand with our business. Your presence and support meant a great deal.

This outcome would not have been possible without the strong, consistent support of our community. We are deeply appreciative of everyone who stood with us.

The Burgess Community Association will take zero credit for this result. We will gladly support a new president for the Association when its leadership actually aligns with the interests of the public.
