Amy's Ice Creams

Dairy goodness plus cheesy entertainment
Popular plate: Mexican vanilla, while yummy all by itself, mixes well with almost everything and is a beloved base for Amy's ice cream inventions.

A beloved local institution since 1984, Amy's Ice Creams was the first ice cream shop in town to expect their employees to be entertainers, not just servers. In addition to keeping theater students off the streets, Amy's makes excellent ice cream. The ever-changing menu usually includes favorites such as Belgian chocolate, sweet cream, and Oreo. In springtime, Amy's adds the amaretto peach flavor, which is made with fresh Central Texas peaches. And over the Christmas holidays, they sell egg nog ice cream with an optional shot of bourbon.
The wise-cracking employees make a show out of putting together custom creations, spinning around and tossing the ice cream in the air before smashing and mixing bits of M&Ms or other 'crush'ns' into the frozen treat.

Amy's also supports theater-related youth charities, ensuring a steady stream of future employees.
