Slidell is a lovely town in Louisiana that makes for a wonderful day trip. There is surely no shortage of things to do in Slidell, but there's one very special soda shop that should be a no-brainer when passing through, and that's the Old Town Slidell Soda Shop. Forget about the diet, the ice cream here is 100% worth it.
Old-school soda shops are often just a memory from the past, but here at the Old Town Slidell Soda Shop, you can experience it for yourself.
Locally owned since 1988, this charming ice cream store has been giving sugar rushes to St. Tammany Parish residents for decades.
Taking you straight back to the 1950s, this nifty setup will have you thinking you've walked onto the set of "Happy Days."
Just don't try to bang on the jukebox. You are not The Fonz.
The color splash continues into the beverages here, where you'll find all sorts of milkshakes, malts, ice cream floats, and more.
All served in those old-fashioned glasses, just like they used to!
From sundaes to individual scoops, your options are endless.
There will always be the classics like chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, but the soda shop is always creating new flavors for the month that will tempt you. Snickers ice cream, anyone?
There's even a savory side to the menu, where you'll find chili dogs, burgers, and more.
A burger, fries, and a milkshake. Could there be a more iconic trio?
You could easily spend a few hours here, especially in the game room filled with several antique games.
Show the next generation how it's done!
And there's even a mini golf course!
Enjoy your ice cream over a few holes of miniature golf with your family.
