Can you think of anything better than a scrumptious scoop - or three - of some of the best hard ice cream in Oregon? Well, how about if you add some old-fashioned candy, homemade cookies and brownies, and bottled soda to the mix? Then you definitely want to visit this charming ice cream shop in Oregon - a tiny piece of paradise, especially if you have a sweet tooth.

Treat yourself to some of the best hard ice cream in Oregon when you visit Serendipity Ice Cream, a charming old-fashioned ice cream parlor in Historic Downtown McMinnville.

The classic ice cream shop has been a popular stop for Oregonians for nearly two decades.

This amazing place might just make you feel as though you've stepped back in time, as it is housed in the former Cook's Hotel, which was built in 1886.

Serendipity Ice Cream employs adults with developmental disabilities, who can gain valuable job training. MV Advancements, a non-profit organization that provides support to area residents with developmental disabilities, runs and started this sweet shop.

You'll discover plenty of scrumptious ice cream flavors - from classics like chocolate to sugary favorites like cotton candy.

How do you like your hard ice cream served? In a sugar cone, a waffle cone, or a dish? Single, double, or triple scoop?

Oh, but there's so much more than the scrumptious ice cream! Serendipity Ice Cream also serves such delightful treats as sundaes, ice cream floats, and shakes.

If you've got a serious sweet tooth, you're going to love the non-ice cream treats at Serendipity.

Sink your teeth into a homemade (made fresh every day) chocolate chip or oatmeal cookie or a rich brownie.

Don't forget to check out the old-school candy and bottled sodas!
