Soft-serve ice cream doled out of time-tested, window-serve digs with a Superman phone booth.
"When the weather permits, there’s nothing like hitting up one of the many seasonal dairy huts that line Woodward Avenue in Oakland County and beyond, offering creamy soft serve cones, floats, and memories. For a taste of nostalgia for the adults and unbridled whimsy for the kiddos, Jim’s Frostie Treats is a beloved Royal Oak tradition. Indulge in an Arctic Frostie, flurry, or novelty Jimbo Bar, while posing next to the Superman manikin located in a nearby phone booth. For fun, the discount calendar offers families a chance to save some cash on their orders in exchange for participating in a little challenge such as hopping up and down or patting their heads." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Soft-serve and assorted fruit flavors of Dole Whip are served at this Royal Oak staple. Grab a cone of Superman to enjoy with the man of steel as he oversees operations from his phone booth out front. Hang out in the shade next door with one of 28 different sundaes to choose from, or combine two of your favorites into one." - Will Reaume
"Jim's Frostie Treats, founded by Troy native Jim Hammond, has been a mainstay in metro Detroit since 1969. Originally a Dairy Queen franchise, it became independent in 1976. Known for its twist on DQ classics and Michigan staples, it offers a variety of ice cream treats. The store is now owned by Hammond's daughter, Kathryn Denier. A unique feature is its discount calendar, which adds to its charm as a beloved neighborhood gathering place. The iconic phone booth with Clark Kent mannequin further enhances its appeal." - Will Reaume
