Old-fashioned ice cream parlor with soda fountain & classic flavors
"Founded in 1919 by three Greek immigrant brothers and now run by a film producer descendant, this Art Deco soda-fountain time capsule features black-and-white checkered floors, neon signage, and soda jerks in bow ties. It’s known for original family recipes — notably Tutti Frutti (rum ice cream with roasted Georgia pecans and candied fruit) — while also offering modern options like vegan chocolate and customizable ice cream sandwiches made with baked-from-scratch cookies; long lines reflect its reputation and cinematic charm." - Veronica Stoddart
"Leopold's is an old-fashioned ice cream shop on Broughton Street that pretty much always has a line during summer. A Savannah icon since 1919, the shop feels out of a different era, especially because all the employees still wear old-school bowties and hats. Flavors include butter pecan (with Georgia pecans) and Tutti Frutti’s candied fruit and rum ice cream, which has been on the menu since they opened." - caroline eubanks
